stop signs

well i can’t do the numbers all up in my head
without wetting the paper and using my hands
and i have to sing right from the top
of the alphabet
well i had to buy earplugs for the grocery store
i don’t think i can listen to strangers anymore
and you tell me when it’s my turn
at the stop signs
will it make sense tomorrow
will numbers do nothing to me
is there something that i will outgrow
and stop dreaming there’s something behind me
well my knees have stopped working i wish i could too
got more things left to go than i’ve got hours to do
and you can’t forget to make time
for the laundry
yeah and that’s just another whose pile’s only grown
will i be satisfied with the things that i own
but i can’t help it at all
if a sale’s on
will it make sense tomorrow
will numbers do nothing to me
is there something that i will outgrow
and stop dreaming there’s something behind me

agneau
02:50

burn it out
jump until your feet are through the ground
find a sacrificial lamb within
and shed your body of the smell of him
brûle
saute, jusqu'à pieds traversent le sol
trouve agneau sacrificiel l'intérieur
et débarrasser ton corps son odeur
versez-le
hors du tonic, le ventre plein de gin
par-dessus épaules, paranoïa bourdonne
si je pouvais brûler que avons fait

underground
03:50

can you, can you tell me
when the atom bomb is dancing through the clouds
that you’ve done, what i’ve asked you
that we’ve made amends and pocketed some rounds
well i don’t wanna learn to speak russian
and i don’t wanna live underground
but some days the human rage is past discussion
and you’ll be dead before you even hear the sound
can you, can you tell me
that we’d have enough if we needed to get by
that we’ve done all the dancing
in a seance and a prayer that they’ll comply
but after all, someone’s mother didn’t raise em
in a way that someone else could ever change
and the questions only matter how you phrase em
and the answers never matter either way
can you, can you tell me
was it meant to fall apart the way it did
all i see, is the centuries
of every novel innovation turned to shit
yes it’s great that your uncle flies an airplane
but there’s another dropping bombs up in the clouds
and i’m sure that you’ve been honest with your campaign
and that money’s unrelated to your crown
can we all just call the spades as they’re standing
before we’re laying next to them and eating ground

come in it’s freezing
come in it’s freezing
slow down your breathing
winter is grieving
slow down your breathing
winter is grieving

brand new phonograph
01:56
|

did you see my brand new phonograph
it’s in the living room
well i was aiming to impress you
i filled it up the birdhouse in the yard
its belly full of hope
with knowing what could visit soon
i don’t know how we made it through wyoming
crossed the double line
and we’d be done before we start
but now we’re sleeping late on sunday
and you’ll mow the lawn
after my nightmares all are done
the cat sits on the window frame
and twitches at your tendencies
to lean into the bluest notes
i’m glad we lost the whole piano front
i like to see the strings that shake
and hum your grandiose
