- 1916
I let my hands get caught in all the flame
Well I cannot play again
When do you ask me if I am okay
I see it when we dance
And make a pouter's portrait on the steps
Oh my it is divine
But there's just one more question I will ask
- Doves
And every time
we have to part.
I sit and shoot the doves
in my back yard.
I dig a hole
in search of kites.
I lose my grip
oh how that string it bites.
- Gigantomachy
found yourself a serpent this day
flames are spitting sore from
his tongue and his eyes
thirsting for the fruits we have dried
pluck yourself an eye lash and
pray that your bones will rise
speaking in tongues, you've
got gin in your belly
- Livers
got a motor to run,
got a motor to run and ride
well take a look at it kids
and take a look at your daddy's eyes
well god damn this man
he is the savior of this empty life
well there's a locket in my pocket
and it's keeping satan on my side
- Oklahoma City
They're waving off our pulse,
We gotta shoot em 'fore the sun heats up the south,
My finger in my mouth,
I'll start the engine,
We won't ever make it,
Oh, I've got to give one last farewell,
I'll take him up to my hotel,
- The Spine Song
and you're down
for the count
you are dancing with men
going around and around
and you're scared
and you're sure
that your spine will dissolve
you will fall to the floor
