I Will Stand, Corrected

=================================================
I pledge-a-Lincoln to the flag
Shit me a bowl pack right out the bag
Went 14 ways that couldn't work
I dressed my sins in a miniskirt
She don't even look like you
That don't even look like you
It don't even look like you
Chance chasin' dreams & Nickey Star
Put Mickey Earl in a mason jar
December the 4th was just a day
So close from being this far away
She don't even look like you
That don't even look like you
It don't even look like you
She don't even look like . . .
She'd whip me good if I did her right
Good lord I swore it took 39
When I pinned Pee-Wee up to the cross
Broke my tooth on dental floss
She don't even look like you
That don't even look like you
It don't even look like you
She don't even look like . . .
You are now neglected
Things are not the same
But I will stand, corrected
You were not to blame
I pledge-a-Lincoln to the flag
Shit me a bowl pack right from the bag
Whip me good if I did her right
I swore the good lord took 39
She don't even look like you . . .

I Put a Spell on You
04:02
|
|||
================================================
I put a spell on you
Because you're mine
You better stop
The things that you're doin'
I said, "Watch out!"
I ain't lyin'
I ain't gonna take none of your
Foolin' around
I ain't gonna take none of your
Puttin' me down
I put a spell on you
Because you're mine

================================================
I know things are kinda shitty
But I've heard it gets worse
Taxi took me to the city
But now I'm leaving in a hearse
She kissed me
I kicked & cursed
Oh, well
So what?
Big deal
Little Rock
Bet you think I'm just making it up
Does it make a difference whether
I am or you're not?
I know things are kinda shitty
But I'm sure it gets worse
Summertime makes me feel pretty
But I'm leaving in a hearse
She got away
We kissed & cursed
Oh, well
So what?
Big deal
Little Rock
And if you think I'm just making this up
Does it make a difference whether
I am or I'm not?
So well
Oh, what?
Big deal
Little Rock
If you think I'm just making it up
It doesn't make a difference whether
I am or you're not
Taxi took me to the city
But I'm leaving in a hearse
She kissed me
I kicked & cursed

Eye of Diamonds
04:23
|
|||
=================================================
Barns are not blue
Heaven's sexy as hell
Neither like new
Nor did I like too well
Trust your own ruse
Confiscate a disguise
Words are not used
And looks can never be lies
The eye of diamonds
Looks & sees
Plane language
In eyes like these
The eye of diamonds
Hopes to find
Broken milk
In eyes like mine
Let it come . . .
Dead & son . . .
Eye of diamonds . . .
They are her's that I'm in
Eye of diamonds . . .
Eye of diamonds . . .
A full Jew!!
The eye of diamonds
Looks & sees
Broken milk
In eyes like these
The eye of diamonds
Only finds
Plane language
In eyes like mine
Let it come . . .
Dead & son . . .
Dead & son . . .
Let it come . . .
Eye of diamonds . . .
They are her's that I'm in
Eye of diamonds . . .
Eye of diamonds . . .

Baker's Man

|

==================================================
I knew a girl who tasted like cinnamon
She took me as a flash in the pan
But I never thought that I'd see the end of it;
Bake me a cake as fast as you can!
Since I was old I looked for the evidence
She took a vow but I could've sworn
We drank all night until she got sick of it;
Died in the hospital where she was born
She let me dip my tip in the mighty Mississip'
I almost lost my lip when she tried to take a sip
She made me lose my grip; I put the stripe before the strip
She let me dip my tip in the mighty Mississip'
I don't wanna go where no one else goes;
I don't really go where no one else goes . . .
But I knew a girl who tasted like cinnamon
She saw me as a flash in the pan
And I never thought that I'd hear the end of it;
Bake me a cake as fast as you can!
She let me dip my tip in the mighty Mississip'
I almost bit my lip when she tried to take a sip
She made me lose my grip; I put the stripe before the strip
She let me dip my tip in the mighty Mississip'
Look out!!
I don't wanna know what no one else knows;
No one ever knows what no one else knows . . .
Bake me a cake as fast as you can!

Scratch My Soul
02:32
|
|||
=================================================
Start my day with a shoestring
Sold my sins for a silver dollar
All I ask for is one thing though -
Scratch my soul
Make your bed like the Queen bee
Cut me loose any time you wanna
If I'm bad, baby let me know -
Scratch my soul
Say your prayers in the evening
Treat your man how you think you oughta
I just can't seem to reach it so -
Scratch my soul

So long my brother
I put your name on my coffin lid
She'll think of another
When she don't know where I am
Well the Sun's going down where I am
I'll be damned . . .
Thought I'd have more time to remember;
Now I can't . . .
I stand in a river
She chose an ocean dance
He's lost on an island
Guess we'll never find him again
Well the Sun's going up where I am
I'll be damned . . .
Thought we'd have more time to notice;
Now we can't . . .
Guess I'd better get her number
So we can do it again
'Cause I'll never be too sure
That she's not coming back
(But she's gone)
We'll get a number
So we can do it again
'Cause she'll never be too sure
That I'm not coming back
So long my sister
I took your picture in Micaville
Someday you'll remember;
Go back & snap it again
Well the Sun's coming down where I am
I'll be damned . . .
Thought I'd have more time to finish;
Now I can't . . .
Guess I'd better get her number
So we can see it again
'Cause I'll never be too sure
That she's not coming back
(I'll bet she's gone)
We'll get a number
So we can do it again
No you'll never be too sure
That I'm not coming back

What do tigers dream of
When they take a little tiger snooze?
Do they dream of mauling zebras
Or Halle Berry in her catwomen suit?
Dont you worry your pretty stripped head,
We're gonna get you back to Tyson and your cozy tiger bed
And then we're gonna find our best friend Doug,
And then we're gonna give him a best friend hug
Doug, Doug, oh Doug Douggie, Douggie Doug, Doug
But if he's been murdered by crystal meth tweakers . . .
Then we're shit outta luck

Plateau
02:44
|
|||
=================================================
Many a hand have scaled the grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers, some to folks you know
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand
Beautify the foothills, and shake the many hands
There's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You'll see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words?
Finish with the mop then you can stop
And look at what you've done
The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen
And the work it was fun
There's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You'll see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words?
Many a hands began to scan around for the next plateau
Some say it was Greenland, others say Mexico
Some decided it was nowhere except for where they stood
But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could

I want you to know that since you walked out on me
I'm so lonesome every day
I want you to know that since you walked out on me
Nothin' seems to fit the same old way
Think about the love that burns within my heart for you;
The good times we had before you went away, oh me
Walk right back to me this minute;
Bring your love to me, don't send it
I'm so lonesome every day
Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses, that's for sure
I die each time I see you
Here he comes, here he comes
That's Cathy's clown
Think about the love that burns within my heart for you;
The good times we had before you went away, oh me
Walk right back to me this minute;
Bring your love to me, don't send it
I'm so lonesome every day
C'mon baby let the good times roll
C'mon baby let them thrill your soul, yeah
C'mon baby let the good times roll
And roll all night long
Feels so good now that you're home
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon baby rock me all night long
C'mon baby let the good times roll
C'mon baby let them thrill your soul, yeah
C'mon baby let the good times roll
They roll all night long . . .
Roll on, roll on . . .

Wake up when you will
Wonder what you are
Take a piece of mind
Put it in a jar
And now it's coming to get you
When no on ever let you know
She wasn't alone
Said if all that was in me
Has gone up the chimney
You can just follow me home
There's a hole in the sky
Where the astronauts go to be good
If you knew how to fly
I'd come back with what evil you could
Hide it in the hills
Find it like before
Take it to the bridge
Nail it to the floor
Now it's coming to get you
When no on ever let you know
She wasn't alone
Said if all that was in me
Has gone up the chimney
You can just follow me home
There's a hole in the sky
Where the astronauts go to be good
If you knew how to fly
Then come back with what evil you could
And now it's coming to get me
When no on ever let me know
She wasn't alone
Said if all that was in me
Has gone up the chimney
You should just follow me home
There's a hole in the sky
Where the astronauts go to be good
If you knew how to fly
I'd escape from what evil you could

Life's a remote-controlled contraption
But I have never known the code
Sweet as an apple from the rooftop
Cold as a woman in her coat
So think what you will without me
I'll sink when it's safe to float
I'm just over by the courthouse
Don't blink if I say hello
'Cause I'm a remote-controlled contraption
And life has yet to find the code
Sweet as an apple in the treetop
Cold as a woman with no coat
Well I have a tape I'd like to play you
Hit rewind; we'll start it from the end
David Byrne said he'd tell me later
You said nothing once so I'll say it again:
Life's a remote-controlled contraption
But I have never known the code
Sweet as an apple on the rooftop
Cold as a woman with no coat

Shelby

==================================================
Waitin' on the line
Creepin' like a vine
Man alive
That girl sent shivers
Up & down my spine
Hang it on the wall of
Some ol' hollow log
Oh, my time
I feel it comin'
Bet it won't be long
Well she fell like fire
And she lit up like rain
And it breaks my heart
But we're feelin' just the same
That's alright I'm alone
And I don't mind some time back home
Well she went on back to Shelby
Guess that's where that girl belongs
Lie for an eye
Truth for a tooth
Lord I've tried
To make things better
But it's just no use
Hangin' on the line
Creepin' like a vine
God forbid
That girl send shivers
Up & down my spine
Well she fell like fire
And she lit up like rain
And it breaks my heart
But she's feelin' 'bout the same
That's alright I'm alone
And I don't mind some time back home
(No I don't)
Well she went on down to Shelby
Guess that's where that girl belongs

Beautiful

=================================================
Goodnight, I've made it through the day
We'll find another way to fake it through the night
You know I've lost a lot of weight;
You see it in my face
And that makes you beautiful . . .
I want you & what makes you beautiful . . .
But I don't know if that makes you beautiful . . .
Sometimes I mumble in my sleep
I'm sure it's not to deep but it might keep you awake
Insane, you promise me you're not;
But I think you forgot
And that makes you beautiful . . .
I want you & what makes you beautiful . . .
But I don't know if that makes you beautiful . . .
Goodnight, I'll get you in dreams;
And even though you're not Irene
That makes you beautiful . . .
I want you & that makes you beautiful . . .
But I don't know if that makes you beautiful . . .
Oh no, what makes you beautiful . . . ?
I don't know what makes you beautiful . . .

I know what she's after
Don't care unless I ask her
Uh-huh
She's good lookin' too
Uh-huh
That's good cookin' too
But give 'em what they're after
And someone might be comin' after you . . .
Rock candy's not for eatin'
And that don't bear reapeatin'
Uh-huh
It's for lookin' through
Uh-huh
It's what rock candy do
If you want what I'm after
Well I just might be comin' after you . . .
This room is a disaster
She'd clean it up much faster
Uh-huh
And a lot more often than you
Uh-huh
She knew what to do
I don't know what she was after
But I know I won't do no better than you . . .
Uh-huh
That's good cookin' too
If you want what I'm after
Then I know I won't do no better than you . . .

=================================================
That psychobabble's not allowed
Sit me up don't stand me down
It's quiet here don't bring a crowd
Psychobabble gets me down
Puttin' actions in my mouth
Them's fightin' words down in the South
Ol' Mason Dixon did without
Puttin' actions in his mouth
Oh, by the way
Georgia Brown's here to stay
Well, I was born in Tennessee
Them redneck boys made fun of me
They skinned my head & shaved my knee
Ran me outta Tennessee
Japhyth aimed & hit his mark
Shot a unicorn in the heart
And Noah cussed when it got dark
Japhyth helped him build the Ark
Oh, by the way
Georgia Brown moved away . . .
Said he'd come again someday
Oh, but he's just full of shit

I forget how I know you
And once in a while
You can tell how I show you
Once in a while
I forget how to hold you
And once in a while
I can see why I told you
Somewhere
I stand
Among those
Memories
Once in a while
I forget how I need you
And once in a while
You can tell I believe you
Once in a while
I forget how to love you
And once in a while
I can see I've become you
Somewhere
I stand
Among those
Memories
And somewhere
I stand
Among those
Memories

Into the atmosphere above me
Into the world all around me
Into the people I see yeah . . .
Cheers, to all my friends
That are here & that are gone
I won't forget about you
As I slowly move on . . .
I'll see ya 'round town, man
In the circle we all seem to be stuck in . . .
I'll see ya 'round town, man
