- Apple Pie Bed
Since you met you've been trying to pull me out of this apple pie bed.
You've been pulling, you've been winching, you've been hoisting
but my legs are made of lead.
And all I could hear from the very start
was the frequency of your beating heart
I was consumed with greed
You were like weed in a time of need
Lord I got down on my knees and believed!
- I Waste My Time
I waste my time without you
Shake it from the vine about you
Spill it on the ground, feel sad and then you come home, baby
I can't do any thinking
I'm itching in the kitchen
And I know I'll let you down because I always do that
Soon you will be inside
- O Heathcote
I can understand, I can understand why people talk with reverence
'bout the changing of the seasons, 'bout the bluing of the light that brings such melancholy
I can understand, I can understand why poets do mythologise
'bout the browning of the land and the hardening on the back of your hand
We were conceived in the back of a car
Brought up in a bar, educated by TV
I've got my PhD
- The Bisexual
There's a brand new man in town
He shares in my interests
He's a handsome, well-fed clown
Got his eyes on desert
"Why don't you come over
So you can hear me?"
"You're a snake in the grass
- Travelling Shoes
Young man, feelin' old
look and scorn at the ...
Wearing his PJ's at the hippie cafe
Everybody stares at him that way
Skate board, council park
Gets a little scary after dark
There's nothing to do,
It feels like there are only two sane people
