…In a bathroom in Paris we found ourselves. Steamed up windows, infinite rainy days, the kettle’s constant hiss and the weary moan of a dying ambulance summoned songs from another time…

We had split apart as sisters, abandoned one another and led completely different lives, gathering contrasting influences and tools that were unknowingly building towards the birth of CocoRosie.

Sierra began her exploration of singing with gospel and spirituals, and continued her devotion studying as an opera singer starting in high school. She received severe beatings from fat divas in Rome, NY and Paris, and although she attained many accolades from the world of classical opera she felt something was missing, some thirst that opera alone could never quell…

Bianca started writing songs at nine; bad love songs, poems, stories, to do lists… kept writing…tattoos, got lost in sociolinguistics, politics, fetishes.. She began singing acapella; in the shower, on the corner, in dimly-lit squats and speakeasies. She fled to Paris on a whim.

Desperate, spontaneous, from the Paris airport, Bianca calls to say; “Can I come stay a while?” Sierra asks why…

We had spent our lives on separate planets, despite the fact that we shared the same child life, and this unplanned rendezvous was like a blind date arranged by angels.

So over the next eight months, tucked away in a Paris shoebox, listening to the rain, we made La Maison de Mon Rêve and CocoRosie was born.

La Maison de Mon Rêve is deceptively innocent: enchanting and sweet yet eerie and twisted. An acoustic guitar paints melody through a haze of cryptic sounds and perversely angelic voices. A broken radio transmits a music box orchestra. Tiny field mice sing gospel.

CocoRosie is Bianca and Sierra Casady. Sierra sings and plays guitar and flute. Bianca sings and does percussion (rattles things, makes things squeak, shakes a gold chain belt). They write all the music together.

La Maison de Mon Rêve was written and recorded in a tiny apartment in the 18th district of Paris during the spring of 2003.

*** Thanx a lot to Emmanuel for these lyrics ***

Terrible angels

If every angel's terrible
Then why do you welcome them
If every angel's terrible
Then why do you welcome them
If every angel's terrible
Then why do you welcome them
You provide the birdbath
I provide the skin
And bathing in the moonlight
I'm to tremble like a kitten
If blue eyed babes
Raised as Hitler's little brides and sons
They got angelic tendencies
Like some boys tend to act like queens
Oh if every angel's terrible
Then why do you watch her sleep
You love to hear her sing
And wear purple eyes like rings
Well the flowers have no scent
And the child's been miscarried
Oh every angel's terrible
Said Freud and Rilke all the same
Rimbaud never paid them no mind
But Jimmi Morrison had his elevators
His elevators
He had his elevator angels
If every angel's terrible
Why do you hide inside her
Like a child in a skirt
The supermarket's loud and bright
And boy don't she feel warm tonight
Boy don't she feel warm tonight
Boy don't she feel warm tonight
If every angel's terrible...

*** Thanx a lot to Loscha who updated this one ***

By your side

I'll always be by your side
Even when you're down and out
I'll always be by your side
Even when you're down and out
I just wanted to be your housewife
All I wanted was to be your housewife
I'll iron your clothes
I'll shine your shoes
I'll make your bed
And cook your food
I'll never cheat
I'll be the best girl you'll ever meet
And for a diamond ring
I'll do these kinds of things
I'll scrub your floor
Never be a bore
I'll tuck you in
I do not snore
I'd wear your black eyes
Bake you apple pies
I don't ask why
And I trys not to crys
I'll always be by your side
Even when you're down and out
I'll always be by your side
Even when you're down and out
And it's nearly midnight
And all I want with my life
Is to be a housewife
Is to be a housewife
'Cause it's nearly midnight
And all I want with my life
Is to die a housewife
Is to die a housewife

Jesus loves me

Jesus loves me
But not my wife
Not my nigger friends
Or their nigger lives
But Jesus loves me
That's for sure
'Cause the bible tells me so
Read your bible good and well
Don't forget about that apple spell
Don't fall in the wishing well
Wishing for heaven and gettin' hell
Wash behind your eras don't smell
Cover them freckles don't ask don't tell
Kiss your papa but not too long
Hold his hands
Don't do no wrong
Jesus loves me
But not my wife
Not my nigger friends
Or their nigger lives
But Jesus loves me
That's for sure
'Cause the bible tells me so
Hush don't cry
Dry them tears
Time'll wash away all them years
Scare or a bruise
Pick and choose
When you're all grown up
You'll have the blues
Life'll give you that wedding ring
Fancy cars and diamond things
You best believe in Jesus' way
And never fall asleep forgetting to pray
Jesus loves me
But not my wife
Not my nigger friends
Or their nigger lives
But Jesus loves me
That's for sure
'Cause the bible tells me so

Good friday

I once fell in love with you
Just because the sky turned from gray
Into blue
It was a good friday
The streets were open and empty
No more passion play
On St. Nicholas avenue
I believe in St. Nicholas
It's a different type of Santa Claus

Not for sale

You can leave me
On the corner
Where you found me
I'm not for sale anymore

Tahiti rain song

Oh sailor
Oh sail me
Silver mast do impale me
Oh windless
Oh windy
Remind me
Rewind me
Oh laughter
Oh laughless
Just sing this
Just mean this
Infinity whispered to me
A mumble so dreamy
A soft sound so creamy
So dreamy
Dreamy
Infinity whispered to me
A mumble so dreamy
A soft sound so creamy
So dreamy
So dreamy
So dreamy

Butterscotch

Black widow and white wood
The darkness of a forest eerily returns
To stagger drunk like mud
Taking swings at your woman
Run!!!
Why does butterscotch taste so good
And we can't have any
But we must we should
Why does sugar cane taste so good
Even though sugar can only do you harm
You remind me of baseball
Tow trucks and the movies
Look sweet as to deliver me milk
Almost frozen on those wintry mornings
Don't slip Mr. Mail man
Watch out for my dog!!!
Why does kissin' you feel so good
Even though it ain't allowed
I know we shouldn't should
Why does holdin' hands feel so right
Got a bruise on my pinky ring from holdin' too tight
Black diamonds swoon the corner
Make it sparkle
It's all for sale
Pushin' snow on the summer kids
Lewd remarks lowering
Lick the lips mischievous
Lick the lips mischievous
Skittles are the rainbow
And every color's popular though
Red gets the most invitations
To the Jr. High celebrations
And I'll go alone I don't care
'Cause rainbow's not my favorite color
I'll go alone I don't care
It's not my favorite color
Why does butterscotch taste so good
And we can't have any
But we must we should
And why does sugar cane taste so good
Even though sugar can only do ya harm
I'll go alone I don't care
It's not my favorite color
Black widow and white wood

West side

I'll wait for you until the streets become sand
And all the ceilings in New York have come down
I'll wait for you until the stars dominate the skies again

Madonna

Miss Madonna won't you give me a kiss
One of your soft sweet lagrimas
Miss Madonna won't you give me a kiss
One of your soft sweet lagrimas
Oh miss Madonna won't you please give me a kiss
Give me one of those soft sweet lagrimas
'Cause I felt your pain
When your baby was slain
And I tossed some roses to perfume his grave
Oh miss Madonna won't you let me underneath your halo
'Cause it's raining hard
Raining hard in this abyss
Miss Madonna...
Oh miss Madonna where you goin' after church
In that preacher's car
You know I want to tell nobody
That you've been smoking cigars
I won't tell nobody
Tell nobody
That you've been smoking cigars
Miss Madonna...

Hatian love song

Interpretation of early black and white Haitian love songs

One.
Oceans wept
Mountains slept
Sidewalks crumbled to ash
Your name remains
In children's lullabies
And your eyes forever in the sky
Two.
Pull me close
Dear I'm tremblin'
Hold me tight
I'm afraid of the night
Blackness fills the room
Your love burns bright
Three.
Oh summer winds
Remind me of your kiss
Soft and warm
I never want to leave this
Four.
I never wanted to say goodbye
I'd throw myself to the sea
If god promised you're inside
We'd float to island paradise
And I'd become your bride
Five.
The countryside looks bare
Without you lying in her grass
The stream is dry
And the crickets silent
There's no music in the night
I'd become smoke
And hide in your cigarette pack
Seven.
To be a star
Tossing light
To sparkle in your eyes
I'd become an angel
And kiss this earth goodbye
Eight.
Destiny
Use to be
Just a word to me
But heaven sure was right
When they said Jesus left somethin' behind
Nine.
Every inch of this body
I'd plate in gold for you
Even though I ain't go no money
I'd do it just to keep you
Ten.
Your eyes appear
In every one of my dreams
They glitter and they gleam
Like the first time we meet
Eleven.
The chickens crowed
And I knowed your home
My spirit ran to greet you
Before my feet left the porch

Lyla

You wanted to buy me
For a hundred euro
You said you'd take me
To your little car
Your friend lived near by
He had a house and all
Where was I from you said
You guessed Yugoslavia
Well it's not yogoslavia
It's not Yugoslavia at all
It reminded me
Of a movie I just saw
About a little girl
From Yugoslavia
She got sent away
They made her prostitute
She ate McDonald’s all day
And never had a chance to play
Lyla
You wanted to buy me
For a hundred euro
You said you'd take me
To your little car
Your friend lived near by
He had a house and all
Where was I from you said
You guessed Yugoslavia
But it's not Yugoslavia
It's hardly Yugoslavia at all
Lyla

K-Hole

Tiny spirit in a k-hole
Bloated like soggy cereal
God will come and wash away
Our tattoos and all the cocaine
And all of the aborted babies
Will turn into little bambies

Wounded river push along
Searching for that desert song
And Mozart's requiem will play
On tiny speakers made of clay
Tell my mother that I love her
Martin Luther you're an angel

Charming monkey saunter swagger
Drunken donkey limbs disjointed
Your chest is a petting zoo
Mexican pony fucked up shoes
I dreamt one thousand basketball courts
Nothing holier than sports

Dragonfly kiss your tail
Precious robot built so frail
Universe of milk and ember
Your hot kiss in mid december
What's god name I can't remember
Trough the crack eye lovely weather

Cocorosie :
Born illegitimately
To a whore, most likely
He became an orphan
Oh what a lovely orphan he was
Sent to the reformatory
Ten years old, was his first glory
Got caught stealing from a nun
Now his love story had begun

Thirty years he spent wandering
A devil's child with dove wings
He went to prison
In every country he set foot in
Oh how he loved prison
How awfully lovely was prison

Antony :
All those beautiful boys
Pimps and queens and criminal queers
All those beautiful boys
Tattoos of ships and tattoos of tears

Cocorosie :
His greatest love was executed
The pure romance was undisputed
Angelic hoodlums and holy ones
Angelic hoodlums and holy ones

Antony :
All those beautiful boys
Pimps and queens and criminal queers
All those beautiful boys
Tattoos of ships and tattoos of tears

All those beautiful boys
Pimps and queens and criminal queers
All those beautiful boys
Tattoos of ships and tattoos of tears

All those beautiful boys
Beautiful boys...
All those beautiful boys
Beautiful boys...

Those beautiful boys...

South 2nd

Somebody's baby boy ain't coming home tonight

We don't need no baseball bats
We don't need no silver ghats
But we're gonna fight tonight
Put up your dukes and fight
Big brother's just standing on the side
Watching you flex your pride
But you know if they all jump in
Big brother's got your skin

The ice cream truck it sings no more
All the kids from school are keeping score
You swing and you duck and you hit the floor
But you gotta get up at least once more
Mama comes screaming down the stairs
Everybody looks but nobody scares
Mama can't believe that nobody cares
It's her baby boy how do they dare
Mama says bitch come over here
If you're so tough you'll have no fear
But why'd you bring your friends
And the whole damn school
To watch my baby boy go down like a fool

But brother says mama they're the same damn size
Got to let him grow up and get street wise
But mama says baby go get that bat
And come back down and beat some ass

Somebody's baby boy ain't coming home tonight

One wrong move and it'll be too late
Mama won't be making no birthday cake
It all went down one afternoon
In brooklyn

Bear hides and buffalo

Lead canoes collide inside
Pocahontas came to me in a reverie
War paint and tobacco stains
Piss on the earth
A pile of dead men
A pile of dead dead men

Bear hides and buffalo
Mildew with fever
In a time of wintryness
Naked bronze trembling queen
Stolen from Egypt
Buried in England
Island of the blue dolphin

Tekno love song

I fell in love with a bad bad man
Every since I met him
I've been sad sad sad
I'm a jailbird to your music
A criminal in your prayer
I watch you when you sleep
Even when you're not there

Rainbows wept color all over the streets
When you went away maybe one day we'll meet

Lipstick I'd wear for one million years
Just to stop your eyes from falling down tears

I fell in love with a bad bad man
Every since I met him
I've been sad sad sad
I'm a jailbird to your music
A criminal in your prayer
I watch you when you sleep
Even when you're not there

Rainbows wept color all over the streets
When you went away maybe one day we'll meet
One day we'll meet
One day we'll meet
One day
We'll meet

The sea is calm

C'est l'histoire d'un homme
Au coeur de bois
La mer est calme
Sous l'écran de la caméra
Comme une ampoule électrique grillée
Dans un seau d'eau

The sea is calm
Through the video camera
Like a dead light bulb
In a bucket of water
Yes in a bucket of water

The sea is calm
Through handmade lenses
Like animals
In soundless dream
Like animals
In bottles of butter
A miniature sailboat
Tin foil and paper
The waves are big
And there's a warm wind...

Il est sous le feu des projecteurs
D'un soleil cassé
Il a jeté son corps comme une ancre
Comme un morceau de sucre
Et s'est dissout

He's in the spotlight of a broken sun
He dropped his body like an anchor
Like a lump of sugar
And he dissolved

On the anniversary of his death
She drew a beautiful picture of a whale
She drew a picture of a whale
She drew a beautiful picture of a whale
She drew a beautiful picture of a whale

Thank you God for this fine day
And bless all the children all over the world
Thank you for the plants and the animals
Oh bring me sweet dreams tonight
And help me be good tomorrow

Noah's ark came to my house one day
With all of his animals and took me away
Oh Noah's ark came to my house one day
With all of his animals and took me away

Thank you God for this fine fine day
And bless all of the children of the world
And thank you for the plants and the animals
And bring me sweet dreams tonight
And help me be good tomorrow

Noah's ark came to my house one day
With all of his animals, He took me away
Oh Noah's ark came to my house one day
With all his animals, and he took me away

Thank you God for this, oh, this fine day
Bless all of the children of the world
Thank you for the plants and the animals
And bring me sweet dreams tonight
And help me be good tomorrow

Noah's ark came to my house one day
With all his animals and he took me away
Noah's ark came to my house one day
With all his animals and he took me away

Thank you for the plants and the animals
Bring me sweet dreams tonight
And help me be good tomorrow
And help me be good tomorrow
Bring me, bring me sweet dreams
And help me be good tomorrow

Armageddon

And then the lights came on
In the middle of the night
What I should do with my life
How I should spend my time
I'll be a stock broker and I'll get me a wife
Have the diamonds cut
And have the diamonds

Let's all gather at time square
Let's all say a prayer
For Walter Disney
And Mike Tyson
At Madison Square Garden

And then the lights came on
In the middle of the night
What I should do with my life
How I should spend my time
I'll be a stock broker and I'll get me a wife
Have the diamonds cut
And have the diamonds

And Jesus said, "There's a girl's best friend"
And hell they'll last forever"
And Jesus said, "Now take her hand
And raise this harlot's bastard sun."

And then the lights came on
In the middle of the night
What I should do with my life
How I should spend my time
I'll be a stock broker and I'll get me a wife
Have the diamonds cut
And have the diamonds

And afterwards, we'll all go to hell
When the money's all spent
When the money's all gone
There'll be a place for us in heaven's gate
Waiting for us on lay away

And then the lights came on
In the middle of the night
What I should do with my life
How I should spend my time
I'll be a stock broker and I'll get me a wife
Have the diamonds cut
And have the diamonds

And oh what a pity the world's not white
Oh what a shame I don't have blue eyes
God must have been a color blind
If I made the world it would be all white

And oh what a pity the world's not white
Oh what a shame I don't have blue eyes
God must have been a color blind
If I made the world it would be all white

And oh what a pity the world's not white
Oh what a shame I don't have blue eyes
God must have been a color blind
If I made the world it would be

Honey or tar

I undressed you with my eyes I have
Maybe even raped you
In a dark and eerie corner of my mind
I tucked you there
And touched you in a dream last night
Pushed you aside when you entered
My thoughts at the wrong time
I have sat up upon your lap and
Saddled my thighs around your hips like ropes
I rode you on a chair and in the shower
And all the while I clung heavy to your back
My desire deeply harnessed in your spine
While I squeezed you like a tree trunk
You may have been one
Sexless and comfort in your mind
Even barer than a child's
I'm riding recklessly through a thick and humid
Jungle growing anxious with the deep and primal
Yearning that stirs
Deeply pulsing up toward the surface
Like sap rising or honey or tar

Rainbowarriors

Of all the white horses...

In these times of evil spirits
Of material thugs and mischief
Fear Saint Noni's wisdom
And his love for rainbow spirits
Jealous of their faithful heart-bond
And their dancing and their laughing
Made at last a league against them
To molest them and destroy them
Saint Noni wise and heart-strong
Often said to Rainbowarrior
"O my brother do not leave me!
Lest the evil spirits harm you!"
Rainbowarrior of two spirits
Gentle hand and lion-hearted
He laughed and then he answered
Like a child he softly whispered

We are rainbowarriors
Evil come not near
Rainbow love awaits us
With hearts of love and tears

He's dead our sweetest mother
Loving father and our teacher
He's gone from us forever
He has moved a little nearer
To the master of all laughter
To the master of all song
O my brother, O my brother
Crystal brother of two spirits
Then we gathered in a circle
Stood round the rainbow fire
Burning embers hearts united
We remembered mystical beauty
If you look hard you can find a
Rainbow trail it's deep inside you
Fear not you're a rainbowarrior
Golden light on everything gleaming

We are rainbowarriors
Evil come not near
Rainbow love awaits us
With hearts of love and tears...

Promise

Open hearted as a heart can be
'Cause we all a ruin like broken leaves
I give you me in oceans of tears up to my knees
Stitched together like pants and sleeves
I carry this carapace worn thin by he and she
Danced to dust and dusk and
Strung along the highway
I found my way belligerent
Following the stars of your eyes

Promise me that you'll cherish
This tarnished
Oh this tarnished offering

And if you take me inside
And you give me a place to hide and cry
I'll bathe you in the crystal light
That sleeps between my thighs
At times you fear the angle's sigh
To the lord and heavens that this ain't right
But in this chalice you'll find the wine
Our hands hold bonfires burning bright
And the heart is dumb and the heart is blind
But I think you'll find that the lord is kind
And I pray you'll cherish this tarnished offering
Burnt silver brushed lavender offspring

Promise me that you'll cherish
This tarnished
Oh this tarnished offering
Oh this offering

Burnt silver brushed lavender offspring
Sprung from me when first we kissed
You held me quietly a rush purged me of my past
Opened a desert of diamonds vast
Glinting and a tiny chorus of swallows
Swing open the door freed the caged bees and wallows
Swarm geometric patterns on the sun
Eclipse new moon
And tempt my werewolf not to run
Tempt my werewolf not to run

Promise me that you'll cherish
This tarnished
Oh this tarnished offering

Bloody Twins

I give you my hand
Brown from summer
And you five me a kiss
Like a tiny floret
Which sparks in a blink
A firework of roses
And the night floods in

Life is like a rollercoaster
It does flips and throws you over
Board your ship that’s going nowhere
If you stop, you’ll end up somewhere

Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody, just hold hands

Now everybody wants to go to California
To live their life on a sunny day
Dreaming of someone else’s kids and wife
But they'll be bringing you the same old strife

Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody, just hold hands

Everyone wants to go to Jamaica
Queens in drag will surely fake you
Take you home, and then they'll rape you
But you like it, so say 'thank you'

Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody, just hold hands

Everyone wants to go to Iraq
But once they go, they don’t come back
Bringing peanut butter jelly and other snacks
We might have our freedom, but we're still on crack

Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody wants to go to Japan
Everybody just hold hands

Sunshine

To all the boys and girls outside
You know I didn't cry
But you saw me anyway
In the back of the creek one day
And if you're trying to get a ride
On a roller skate or a bike
Just ask me and I'll take you round
The block and back this way again
To all the boys and girls outside
Why don't you come and fly with me
I'll show you why I ran away
The other day from my mom and dad
All the boys and the girls outside
I know you got crazy things inside
And that's why I got crazy style
I go so fast around the block
And as I do so I sing this song to you

Sunshine oh sunshine
If you don't know why you shine
You have to go into the sun
You'll have to go inside

Black Poppies

Black poppy sleeps a dreamless night
In summer shade of moony light
Hazy veils of clouds loom low
The warm kittens close to the earth
Underground bodies stir with no sound
No one to tear them under the ground
Ghost horse and stillborns turn in their cradles
Silvery meadow murmurs the song of
Tiny glow worm glowing
Rain starts her shimmery descent
Into the old leathery skin of the farm

Werewolf

In a dream I was a werewolf
My soul was filled with crystal light
Lavender ribbons of rain sang
Ridding my heart of mortal fight

Broken sundown fatherless showdown
Gun hip swollen lip bottle sip yeah i suck dick
Loose grip on gravity falls sky blinding crumbling walls
River sweep away my memories of
Children's things a young mother's love
Before the yearning song of flesh on flesh
Young hearts burst open wounds bleed fresh
A young brother skinny and tall my older walks
Oceanward and somber, slumber sleeping
Flowers in the water, but I’m just his daughter
Walking down an icy grave leading to my
Schizophrenic father. Weeping willow won't you wallow louder
Searching for my father's power

I'm a shake you off though
Get up on that horse and
Ride into the sunset
Look back with no remorse

He's a black magic wielder some say a witch
Wielded darkness when he was wilein' on his mom's
And born child and he was the bastard the that broke
Up the marriage evil doer doing evil from a baby carriage
And he was born with the same blue eyes
Crystal ships dripping with ice, diamonds coruscate
In the night fireworks electric bright
And now he's got his own two sons
Trys to hide his tears in a world of fun
But loveless bedrooms filled with doom
Bring silent heartache July to June
Swoon over new young hot flame
Mourn the memories later
Laugh now alligator

In a dream my father came to me
And made me swear that I’d keep
What’s sacred to me
And if i get the choice to live in his name
I’ll pray my way through the rain
Singing oh happy day

I don't mean to close the door
But for the record my heart is sore
You blew through me like bullet holes
Left stains on my sheets and stains on my soul
You left me broke down begging for change
Had to catch a ride with a man who's deranged
He had your hands and my father's face
Another western vampire
Different time same place
I has dreams that brings me sadness
Rain much deeper than a river
Sorrow flow through me
Tiny waves of shivers
Corny movies make me reminisce
They break me down easy on this generic love shit
First kiss frog and princess

I'm a shake you off though
Get up on that horse and
Ride into the sunset
Look back with no remorse

Animals

Now that I'm alone I feel the lonely brokenness
Of all the wicked avenues I've ever sold my love on
All these moments of meekness and trembling subsided
I'm the outright abandon of this orphan child
Home is on the highway living on soft bread and solace
I guess I'm waiting for nightfall or a solar eclipse
And to wake up half empty
Only to be filled again with mourning
He's my evil shadow dove
My black Palamito
Can't break him like a diamond skull
I can't seem to do so
Can't just rob him out like the
Mob used to do so
Like memories of porno and tearstains
And tobacco O it's a mini disastro
Bigger than the ice age don't know if baby dinosaurs
Maybe could live through it, like Indians and butterflies
What's crushed is my spirit, Oh I fear it is too fragile
Like fall leaves burn like paper

I always knew I would spend a lot of time alone
No one would understand me
Maybe I should go and live amongst the animals
Spend all my time amongst the animals
And on the tracks I would go they lead to the sea
To be amongst the animals

Oh I'm just afall leaf something simple and shy lie that
That's how my heart lies down beside the sidewalk
Like an empty restaurant filled with perfume and balloons
I sit and entertain the bisarro ghosts of my soul
His name still lingers maybe lactates on my tongue
Perhaps I'm just teething for a foreign fallen destiny
Miserable but mine, I look like his mother
Or Sophia Loren in an old fashioned movie
Slow motion I cling to my child desperate for love
One day soon my brother died, made me remember all the
Subordinate feelings I cast aside
Maybe I had lied when I said I was ok
Just getting along like a little song that stops to sing and say
"Wild willow, windy winter won't you blow through me
My whole eternity"

Houses

Ask me about my mother
And I'll tell you that I love her
'Cause she feeds me all kinds of foods
Yeah, she feeds me all kinds of foods
Don't you love your baby
Tell me tell me tell me tell me true
And all the foods you ate
Enough to fill your plate

Big houses burn
Big houses burn down
Big houses burn
Big houses burn down
Don't burn down mine

Raphael

Deep inside my heart and its splintered at its core
Molden curdle of milken puddle
Dreams of warm breasts settling in my mouth
To be my spouse make a bale and a house
Apple tree, drunken brawl domestically
Dirty dog dusty pawed bloody nose roses embroidered sheets
Dangle like women in the breeze on a line above the yard
In my heart a flower dies slow like a campfire covered
In piss mellows like snow fall
Mellows like snow fall

Raphael you know just how
To take me in the swimming pool
Like a child being baptized
Beneath the starry sky we lie
Drowning in your watery thighs
Luscious eyed you a teenage player
In my heard an island sinks slow
Tears fall in the kitchen sink O
Don't speak I can hear you
Don't speak I can hear you

Girl and the Geese

There was a girl who talked to geese
She understood them and they her
One day she looked into a crystal stream
And saw in its bed a diamond
She picked it up and placed it in her hair
As she did so she turned into a geese
It was then revealed that the other geese
She magically had understood
Were once human like her

Miracle

I met a boy, he wore a seatbelt
He kissed my cheek in the back seat
We played basketball his girl cousins
Played too in Germaine

I'll be your girl
I'll be your boy

Buy Victor he was my first man
He didn't have any money
So I paid for his movie
Viva lost childhood

Be my boy forever
And I'll be your girl

Trinity's crying

I love you
I cried on your mother's shoulder
Like a broken hearted soldier
She knew and I knew
What all the tears were for

Weary exhausted flames of light
Weary exhausted flames of light
Weary exhausted flames of light

Trinity's crying
Trinity's crying
Trinity's crying
Trinity's crying

Trinity's crying
Trinity's crying
Trinity's crying
Trinity's crying

Smokey taboo

They call her smokey taboo
I got your name tattooed
High like a helium balloon
Midnight to noon
I'm a desert child
And mountains make me nauseous

I like to look up wild at an infinite sky
Twinkling with diamonds
It's true I get depressed in fancy hotel rooms
Undressed with nothing to flaunt but my loneliness
Thinking of the night song of your hair
Premature as evening falls it calls to me
Interrupted by the sirens in the street

Cristal heaven, cristal heaven
Cristal heaven, cristal heaven

Somedays you're like an anchor on my heart
They say that stolen water tastes sweet
More like rotten milk and rancid meat to me
I prefers when it is free
Like looking at the stars
Don't need no fancy cars
When we first
Our kisses sparked
Yeah I'm afraid of sharks
But not the dark

Hopscotch

"I got a hopscotch tear drop ready to drop"

If the sun decides to rise
Without its colors in your eyes
It matters not a heart of mine
Prefers the darkness
A hopscotch tear drop ready to drop
A hopscotch tear drop ready to drop

"I got a hopscotch tear drop ready to drop"

Undertaker

Under what spell the guiding light
Betook the undertaker
Under whose gaze did fall such evil blunder
Characters of flamen eyes
Eager to burn the wooden castle
Eager to wet the paper heart of children birds
The aching starlet
The singing sinew
The whining ghost
Brutal wind of snowy harlot
Chafen mine eyes
A sandpaper kiss
Bloody rosen my cheek
Purple kiss of stardust
Pink balloon of time
Candied on the inside
Baby pit bull butterfly
Do da do da do dah do dah

Grey Oceans

In heaven worm souls flutter
They flutter by with rosaries
Dangling from their necks
German shepherds guide by nightfall
Little kinder dressed in starlight
Inside I feel like I'm crying besides a tree
I'm watching myself like an old movie on color T.V
I'm watching myself like an old movie on color T.V

When people whisper in Portuguese
It's just as mysterious
And the stubble on his face
It hurt me when
When we fell onto each other's faces

Dawn retraces heart ached patterns across grey oceans
Windows brighten up the room
And one could cast a smooth worn lover's stone
Worn smooth from days of fertile deliberation

Dawn retraces heart ached patterns across grey oceans
Worn smooth from days of fertile deliberation

R.I.P. Burn Face

In her mourning
In her grave
Don't you miss the way
That she brushed her heavy hair
Oh la la la la la

Acid burned face clowny tear smile
She's the one who made you wild
She made you question all your answers
Made you beg for her forgiveness

Baby girl, don't cry
Momma's gonna buy you a glass eye
And it will glimmer like starlight

She's got no reservations
Ain't got no place to be
He graveyard's in the backyard
Where the meadows used to be

Lord knows my destination
Lord's heard my inner prayer
Mom'll find me by the river
Sunken with her party balloons

Flowers for the ones you loved
Flowers for the lost at sea
Flowers for the ones you loved
Flowers for the lost at sea...

The Moon Asked The Crow

I caught a glimpse out the window
A Polish graveyard filled with widows
I coddle a bottle of warm beer
I see a pool of liquid tears
Glimmering so sweet and mellow
A sea of lilting wilting willow
A secret book of forgotten wishes
Drown in ponds with broken dishes

The moon asked the crow
For a little show
In the hazy milk of twilight
No one had to know
The moon asked the crow
For a little show
In the hazy milk of twilight
No one had to know

Angel brother I miss your hair
Careless nature gentle stare
You fell like rain in the dark abysses
Kissed the lips of bloody twinsis
Sung to you a slew of sirens
Tricky mermaids and evil pirates

You watched the sky
With kaleidoscopic eyes
Howling out right
To the blasphemous night
A wolf in the garden
Why do you linger so
Like a silky snail soul
The moon asked the crow

For a little show
In the hazy milk of twilight
No one had to know
The moon asked the crow
For a little show
In the hazy milk of twilight
No one had to know
The moon asked the crow
For a little show
In the hazy milk of twilight
No one had to know

Lemonade

It was Cinco de Mayo
Pillow case on his head
No more breathing time
The ambulance sped
Sped 'round every corner
Calling out his name

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
Sat and watched the summer corn grow
Ate ice cream in a dessert dream
And got lost in father's singing
Too hot inside
Too hot outside
Lazy days when I said lets go for a ride
We'd sail on Spirit Lake
Me my pappy and his lemonade

Tim and Tina were my parents names
They got engaged
They were inflamed
Seduced by the luck of butterflies
How they glimmer how they shimmer
Those butterflies

We seven kids
We almost died
Nearly put to death
By lightening strikes
Instead there was hot pink
Flashes in the sky
We climbed the rocks in snow and rain
In search of magic powers
To heal our mother's pain

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
Sat and watched the summer corn grow
Ate ice cream in a dessert dream
And got lost in father's singing
Too hot inside
Too hot outside
Lazy days when I said lets go for a ride
We'd sail on Spirit Lake
Me my pappy and his lemonade

Gallows

It was just before the moon hung
Her weary heavy head in
The gallows and the graves of
The milky milky cradle
His tears have turned to poppies
A shimmer in the midnight
A flower in the twilight
A flower in the twilight

And our screaming
Is in his screaming
Our screaming in the willow

They took him to the gallows
He fought them all the way though
And when they asked us how we knew his name
We died just before him
Our eyes are in the flowers
Our hands are in the branches
Our voices in the breezes

And our screaming
Is in his screaming
Our screaming in the willow tree

We're waiting by the willow
Our milky milky cradle
Our lockets long have rusted
His picture worn and weathered
Our hair is in the garden
The roses in our toeses
Our heart are in the blossoms
Our eyes are in the branches

Our screaming
Is in his screaming
Our screaming in the willow tree

Fairy Paradise

He draws near the periphery
In disbelief on delivery
Came child from the deep inferno
Crusty head of dead volcano
Heartless crow with brittle beak
Wooden leg too schocked to speak
Lilac dust of a woman's hair
A wooden cross a paper prayer

A stone where her body lay
A stack of feathers a pile of hay
A mushroom for an eye ball
A mustache from the snow fall
Worms weave a ring where fairies square dance
Queens and kings fairies weave wigs with eyelash
Trance music makes the fairies dance
From the caves of snail shells

Echoes the mutter medieval spells
Mystery flows her wicked river
Of thorn and blade and silver sliver
Bending 'round the clover fields
Their sapling stems don't break but yield
Her pain inflicts no arguments
Must learn to sway and un-arrange
As earth she makes her final passage
After humans long have ravaged

Vanished with all maps for motion
Upward angels last devotion
One by one escort us home
To leave the elementals free to roam
To bathe in the last of ocean's foam
To beach comb the nuclear debris
Our plastic toys and our metal trees
On the perfect day you'll find the breeze
Once blew the pollen the feet of bees
Now cry the stars when upon the earth
Their gaze might rest a nostalgic burst
A lament be heard through all the cosmos
Of the dying planet with fallen foes

Here I Come

The world rose in the night
And prayed
People kissed, kissed and hugged one last time
Saying what have we done for two thousand years
The end it has begun

Should I let my mind run
For a scrap of kettle wood
Blind, woolen cat, bad bat breath beside me
Fuzzy face of pear tree
Ghoulish and cartoony
Surprise me like a monster
My brother liked to scare me
A rape in the meadow
A fornicating fellow
A flea on the fur of a shaggy old sheep
All tangled up like winter
Bramble branch of brown tree
Cut the very life of
Her blood bank that billows
Up from below her
Skirt and sunlit blouses
Kangaroo mommy
Rapunzel and a tomboy
Fatherless a heart broke
A hankering, a steak knife
A wallowing a child
A banquet a hollycaust
A pussy wussy willow
Marshmallow, a mantra
A temper tantric tantrum
A full steam ahead and
Watch out here I come

Afterlife Party

It's so hard to say goodbye
To what we had
The good times that made us laugh
Outweigh the bad
And if we get to see tomorrow
Oh, I hope it's worth all the wait
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday

This is the afterlife party
And if you want to party with me
Just slip into some PJs
And bring your favorite movie
This is the afterlife party
If you want to party with me
Just slip into some PJs
And bring your favorite movie

I don't know where we're going
Or where this road leads to
All I know is where we've been
And what we've been through
And if we get to see tomorrow
Oh, I hope it's worth all the wait
Because it's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday

This is the afterlife party
And if you want to party with me
Just slip into some PJs
And bring your favorite movie
This is the afterlife party
If you want to party with me
Just slip into some PJs
And bring your favorite movie

And I'll take with me the memories
To be my sunshine after the rain
'Cause It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday

This is the afterlife party
And if you want to party with me
Just slip into some PJs
And bring your favorite movie
This is the afterlife party
If you want to party with me
Just slip into some PJs
And bring your favorite movie
This is the afterlife party
If you want to party with me
Just slip into some PJs
And bring your favorite movie
This is the afterlife party
If you want to party with me
Just slip into some PJs
And bring your favorite movie

Beautiful Smell

( Spleen Feat. Cocorosie / She Was A Girl LP )

The night, it pours in
And it's empty again
It's reeking of sin
With a perfume of violets, with a perfume of violets
The angel-less air
Filled with smoke of despair
Afraid that nobody cares

And I cannot find a comfort
And I cannot find a comfort

And the night, it pours in
And it's empty again
And it's reeking of sin
And with a perfume of violets, with a perfume of violets
The angel-less air
Filled with smoke of despair
Afraid that nobody cares

And I cannot find a comfort
And I cannot find a comfort
In the angel-less air
In the angel-less air
In the angel-less air
In the angel-less air

Big Momma Thang

( Lil’Kim Cover / Live )

I used to be scared of the dick
Now I throw lips to the shit
Handle it like a real bitch
Heather Hunter, Janet Jack-me
Take it in the butt, yah, yazz wha
I got land in Switzerland, even got sand in the Marylands
Bahamas in the spring, baby, it’s a Big Momma thing
Can’t tell by the diamonds in my rings
That’s how many times I wanna cum, twenty-one
And another one, and another one, and another one
Twenty four carots nigga
That’s when I’m fuckin wit’ the average nigga
Work the shaft, brothers be battin’ me, and oh
Don’tcha like the way I roll
And play wit’ my bushy
Tell me what’s on your mind when your tongues in the pussy
Is it marriage
Baby carriage
Shit no, on a dime shit is mine
Got to keep ‘em comin’ all the time

The sun is fallen and it lies in blood
The moon is weaving bandages of gold
O Black Swan, where oh where is my lover gone
Torn and tattered is my bridal gown
And my lamp is lost, and my lamp is lost

Silver needles and with silver thread
The stars stitch a shroud for the dying sun
O Black Swan, where oh where has my lover gone
I had given him a kiss of fire and a golden ring
And a golden ring

Don't you hear your lover moan?
Eyes of glass and feet of stone
Shells for teeth and weeds for tongue
Deep, deep down in the river's bed
He's looking for the ring
Eyes wide open, never asleep
He's looking for the ring, looking for the ring

The spools unravel and the needles break
The sun is buried and the stars weep
O black wave, O black wave, take me away with you
I will share with you my golden hair
And my bridal crown, and my bridal crown
Oh, take me down with you
Take me down to my wandering lover
With my child unborn
With my child unborn

Oh, oh
The moon is weaving bandages of gold
O black wave, O black wave, take me down with you
Take me down with you

Open-hearted as a heart can be
'Cause we're all a ruin like broken leaves
I give you me in oceans of tears up to my knees
Stitched together like pants and sleeves
I carry this carapace worn thin by he and she
Danced to dust and dusk and
Strung along a highway
I found my way, belligerent
Following the stars of your eyes

O Black Swan, where oh where is my lover gone
Torn and tattered is my bridal gown
And my lamp is lost, and my lamp is lost

And if you take me inside
And you give me a place to hide and cry
I'll bathe you in the crystal light
That sleeps between my thighs
At times you fear the angel's sigh
To the lord and heavens that this ain't right
But in this chalice you'll find the wine
Our hands hold bonfires burning bright
And the heart is dumb and the heart is blind
But I think you'll find that the lord is kind
And I pray you'll cherish this tarnished offering
Burnt silver brushed lavender offspring

O Black Swan, where oh where has my lover gone?
I had given him a kiss of fire
And a golden ring, and a golden ring

Opened up a tiny chorus of swallows
Swung open the door freed the caged bees and wallows swarm
Geometric patterns on the sun
Eclipse, new moon
Tempt my werewolf not to, not to run
Tempt my werewolf not to run
Tempt my werewolf not to run

O black wave, O black wave, take me away with you
I will share with you my golden hair
And my bridal crown, and my bridal crown

O black wave, O black wave, take me away with you
I will share with you my golden hair
And my bridal crown, and my bridal crown

O black wave, O black wave, take me down with you
Take me down with you

Coconuts

( Coconuts, plenty of junkfood EP )

Climbing for coconuts
Musical shells
We never shot the smoke signal
We watched Amelia Earhart fly on by
And refused the talking dolphins that offered us a ride

We just beat each other up
And make constant love
You couldn't tell the difference
Best friends or ?

We ambushed the doves
And made jewelry out of pearls
I was homecoming queen
Never did get over that, being a whore

( Live )

For who
Do you
Cut your
Hair

This is for the woman that I love
He, no doubt, was sent to me from thee above
She's got a beard that goes down to the ground
And every time she sees me she spins me around

Oh yeah, dizzy dog
Oh, dizzy dog
Oh yeah, dizzy dog
Won't you spin me all around

For who
Do you
Cut your
Hair

This is for the eyes that hold my glow
They tell the story that you, you already know
For the pain we've had and
For the joy to come,
We'll swim off together someday
In an ocean of our own

Oh yeah, yeah dizzy dog
Oh yeah, dizzy dog
Oh yeah, dizzy dog
Won't you spin me all around you

Fatherhood

Priests and demons good as gone
Broken soul to the doubling zone
You left me in my mother's womb
Teenage burnout womb to tomb
My mother never been told your love
She warned me of your ghostly blast
Twisted spider poisoned web
You took my childhood before i had
Priests and demons mystical
You show me nature's miracle
Pray? We did, below the sky
Dark as raven’s feathers
But in the end your children die
They’ll meet you in heaven
Your soul it can never die
Even if you're poisoned

Watch them walk away

So the moral of the story is
Magic doesn't save your kids
They needed love to grow up tall
Like the purple mountains
You held my hand in a shopping mall
This is all I’ve counted
I'm broken, blue, a bastard
Now every man's a bastard
A black handled crystal crucifix
Those shoes are big; they almost fit
I guess I got my momma's feet
I guess I got my momma's feet
All new babes, i forget your names
You name the boy your namesake
Unicorn turned up a snake
Was my little sister's fate

Watch them walk away

So was this all a big mistake
Now I got my legacy
To live and to die and to create
I suppose I should thank you
You never were the violent type
Only with your mentals
I used to hold your coffee cup
You taught me fundamentals
Of all the evils of the world
And only you could save it
My mother's a witch with her black hair
Only you can save her
Your first born son, the chosen one
What happened to Messiah?
Jesus always your right hand
What happened to Messiah?

Watch them walk away

We watch, we watch, we watch them walk away
We watch, we watch our fathers walk away
We watch, we watch, we watch them walk away
We watch, we watch our fathers walk away

God Has A Voice, She Speaks Through Me

All my charities belong to you
Watching dolphins in your sea
The earth is a pretty place to be
All my charities belong to thee

Black bodies float in the sea
We can see but he can't see me
A starlit shroud like the dark to you
Laughter echoes in my private room

Kissing fireflies on a beach
How sweet that we can be
Everyone has love to give
Our hearts will teach us how to live

My body wept
I feel so free
The water softly tickles me
My heart is pounding waiting for
The ocean deep enough to lift my veil

crystal light shine down on us
God has a voice she speaks through me
Every creature longs to be
In his arms please carry me

I am happy in the light of day
My skin glows bright in the sunrays
My shadowed world seems so far away

My angel taught me not to fear
Love is free and everywhere
Listen to that special part
It will save us, it's the heart

God has a voice she speaks through me
God has a voice she speaks through me
Crystal light in every creature
Crystal light in every creature
Everyone has love to give

Goldrush

I'm a goldminer
Just mining for my gold
And on the other side of the river
Is where I find it I am told.
Cause I'm a goldminer

His shadow passed
In a raindrop of rain
It’s just another acorn grave
On a windy autumn's day"

Go Slow

( Busdriver feat. Bianca Casady )

Go slow, fall like shadows
Perfect shapeless shape shifter
Earth, it glows
Heart is sowing
Galaxy awaits you; gate swung open

Go slow, fall like shadows
Perfect, shapeless shape shifter

You should hold those splintered bones
Spare your exhausted glands
Go slow, trace breath
Leap into these large unpromised hands
Mutter those Ginsberg poems
Cool those worn hooves
Go slow, face your death
Walk into the fiery orange woods

Go slow, fall like shadows
Perfect, shapeless shape shifter
Earth, it glows
Heart is sowing
Galaxy awaits you, gate swung open

Go slow, fall like shadows
Perfect, shapeless shape shifter

Hairnet Paradise

Bad crowd
Tea, cake and
Sweet, sweet Jamaica
Garden that is sweet
Sweet, sweet Jamaica

It was a hairnet paradise
I praised in demise
It was a hairnet paradise
Brown, black, blue eyes
Burn the blue eyes

Happy Eyez

( Coconuts, plenty of junkfood EP )

They call me Wee Willie Winkie
I'm tired and blinky
Eyeless and poor
Promise I don't snore by candle light
I kiss the shimmering cheeks of little children
Having a mother I lost in the street
A skinny jungle child
Wayward and windy
Sinful and pretty
I visit the graves of boys
Dead at war
Shipwreck sailors
Don't ask, don't tell
Sweet fragrance of moon has brought me to your room
Where you waft milky magic from that ancient loom

I only have eyes for you
Oh Lord, please tell me you watch me too

My mother I seek
I long to curl up meek
In the lap of your laughter
You wanted a daughter
I ain't no Jesus
If you give me a dress
I could become your princess
My mother I seek
I long to curl up meek
In the lap of your laughter
You wanted a daughter
I ain't no Jesus
If you give me a dress
I could become your princess

I only I have eyes for you
Oh Lord, please tell me you watch me too

Horse Porno

Horse porno lit by the moon
A tender tango by a dark lagoon
I sat and watched as the moon became nude
I know I'm lewd and way overdued
I know I'm lewd and way overdued

Horse porno lit by the moon
I sat and watched as the moon became nude
And I, I know that I'm lewd
I know that I am lewd

Horse porno lit by the moon
There's room inside me if you’re looking for room
I'm hot and sticky like a honey comb tomb
I know I'm lewd and way overdued
I know, I know, I know

Horse porno lit by the moon
A tender tango by a dark lagoon
I sat and I watched as the moon became nude
I know I'm lewd and way overdued
I know I'm lewd and way overdued

Joseph City

( Coconuts, plenty of junkfood EP )

Red, green, blue, yellow
Red, green, blue, yellow

Joseph City, you look mighty pretty
When your hills are red and rosy
Your streams all dry and sandy

City lady
Make me a further fan
In your old casino
Resting heavy (on the land)
Ravens calling
My baby is cold
Back from the East
He is not deceased
Just a little empty

There's nothing in the ark
Let's get out of this house
It smells like rats
Found a quarter in the open couch
Now it amounts to 60 cents
Let's take a walk to the candy shop
Down the road, it's way too hot

Red, green, blue, yellow

Left-Hand Shoe

( Live )

Don't be afraid of Jesus
Jesus, oh no
Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson, he's an angel

I believe in Jesus
And he owns the tomb
And don't be afraid of Michael Jackson, oh
Jesus, please, don't

But the girl in the back of the room
Who's raining all of the perfume on you
I believe in Jesus
And he owns the tomb

Dum dee-da-da dum dee-da
I've got a left hand shoe
Dum dee dum dum dee-da
I've got a left hand shoe

Milkman

( Coconuts, plenty of junkfood EP )

Lord knows I have no conscience
But I'll delve into my mind
Where your voice is still a maze

Lord knows I still need you
But you're far away
Lost in some playground
In Disneyland

Take me with you
We'll play till the end
And fall hard
In the face of the earth

My Brother
My long lost friend
We cut our hands
To have more skin

All I found
Once I left this land
Is the desolation of humankind

Follow me
Will you wind this tape back and
I'll be looking for you around the next bend

( The Believer: The 2005 Music Issue (2005) / Damien Jurado Cover )

Out from my window, across from the city
I have what's considered a good view
Two blocks from the subway and three from the fountain
I walk just to break in the new shoes

She stands on the sidewalk, just waving at taxis
Like horses in parades in passing
I asked where she's headed
She told me, "Ohio, I've not seen my mama in ages
It's been a long time, a real long time"
It's been a long time, a real long time

Out from my window:
"How far is Ohio?"
She laughed and pointed out east
She said, "I grew up there with my dear mother
And I haven't seen her since thirteen
You see, I was taken while she lay sleeping
By my father's hired men
We moved to a city so far from my family
I haven't been back there since
It's been a long time, a real long time"
It's been a long time, a real long time

Out from my window, please hear me, Ohio
Your daughter wants to come home
She longs to be with you
To hug you, to kiss you
Do never leave her alone

I've gotten to know her
To live with, to love her
It's hard to see her leave
She belongs to her mother and the state of Ohio
I wish she belonged to me
It's been a long time, a real long time
I'll see you sometime
Yeah, see you some time

See you sometime
See you sometime

Spirit lake

( Coconuts, plenty of junkfood EP )

Sail away to Spirit Lake

Hurricane dream, waking windy
When you touched me in my blanky
Started screaming, "I'm still dreaming
Of my mama come and take me!"
Board me, I'll remember thee
With starry eyes and rosy cheeks
Lots of gold between the teeth
Stonewashed jeans and bloody knees

Chicken and fox in the tall, tall grass
Better run fast or they'll get your ass
Sleepy uncle angers you
By your skinny white ankles
The normal kids throw sticks at me
We eat popcorn and watch TV
Their mom smokes cigarettes
Wears short shorts, sportin' nicorette
Voice high-pitched and unspirit-like

Sail away to Spirit Lake

Tearz For Animals

(ft. Antony Hegarty)

Do you have love for human-kind
Do you have love for human-kind
Do you have love for human-kind
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin
Poison heart oh I tried to swallow
Pistols, night shears, ghost and gallows
Oh you fell as you climbed like a staircase

Wore me down
Wore me down
Wore me down

Solemn seething my old man
Left me breathing black and blue and tan
Hide the feeling you’ll be feeling
When the day turns forever into night

Hope for healing if you’re willing
Do you have love for human-kind
(x4)

Orphan girl
Child sing along
Stop the slaughter of our daughters
Poison in the water.

Heart strings broken
Wearily tuned to the moon
Bastard widows bourne the wound
Nameless, faceless black-eyed soul
Slave to sorrow, find your way home

Hope for healing if you’re willing
Hope for healing if you’re willing
Hope for healing if you’re willing

Do you have love for human-kind
Hope for healing if you’re willing
Do you have love for human-kind
Hope for healing if you’re willing

( Live 21-05-04 'White Session' )

I fell in love with a bad bad man
Every since I met him
I've been sad sad sad
June faded in the bloom
The september moon waned and gloomed
Your perfume haunted me
Long after I saw
The swing
Of heaven's gate
Opening toward me

Luxurious in your arms
Your smile
Is a cool sun in the dark
Misery rejoices when you near
And fever,
No sound of sickness keeps me burning down in my heart
Winter melts, she shys away
Quiet, like the silence a dying star makes
I'm a jailbird to your music, a criminal in your prayers
I watch you when you sleep, even when you're not there

I fell in love with a bad bad man
Every since I met him
I've been sad sad sad
I'm a jailbird to your music
A criminal in your prayers
I watch you when you sleep
Even when you're not there

Rainbows wept colour all over the streets
When you went away
Maybe one day we'll meet

Lipstick I'd wear for one million years
Just to stop your eyes from
Falling into to years

I fell in love with a bad bad man
Every since I met him I've been sad sad sad
I'm a jailbird to your music, a criminal in your prayers
I watch you when you sleep, even when you're not there

Rainbows wept colour all over the streets
When you went away
Maybe one day we'll met
One day we'll meet
One day we'll meet
One day
We'll meet

Picture this: your lips on my lips
A mirror has to do for now
'Cos you vanished like a cloud
Rainbows wept colour all over the streets
When you went away
Maybe one day we'll met

Oh woman you callin' me
Haven't slept a wink since 1916
I wasn't born then,
But sure feel times been tickin'

Shadows parade outside my door
I wish we were dancing 'cross this old floor
Car horns honkin' down that dirty street
Wish you were yelling time to wash my feet
Lipstick I'd wear
For one million years
Just to stop the tears
Your eyes from fallin', fallin' ..

This Is The End Of Time

This is the end of time
This is the end of time
This is the end of time

So for the moment while
We jamming at this party
You're wining hard on me
Pushing everything
Right back on top of me
Yeah-hey-ai
But if you think
You're gonna get away from me
You better change your mind
'Cause you're going home
You're going home with me tonight

So let me hold you
Come caress my body
You got me going crazy
Turn me on

Ooh yeah, let me jam you
I say wine all around me
'Cause you got me going crazy
Turn me on

One hand just on the ground
My Bumper cock is sky high
Wining hard on me
You got this python
Hollerin' for mercy
Yea-Hey-ai
And then I whisper in her ear
''Wine harder''
And then she said to me
''Boy just push that thing
Push it harder back on me''

So let me hold you
Come caress my body
You got me going crazy
Turn me on
Ooh yeah, let me jam you
I say wine all around me
'Cause you got me going crazy
Turn me on

We Are On Fire

I marvel at, days that go
Tears of a grass widow
When I was young, I thought I’d be
More than just a fantasy

I wanna be this, I wanna be that
A big black dog with the soul of a cat
The blue-eyed devil, inside on me
He won’t leave, he’s buried deep
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin
I used to have eyes, the colour of sky
Now I can see, in the middle of the night
I used to have eyes, the colour of sky
Now I can see, in the middle of the night

If I told you, would you believe
My soul is wicked, I’m a thief
They'd all burned me, 1690
It was a deadly night shade, which finished me

Now I’m haunting and I’m looming round
The old church yard and the damn dog pound
I'm giving some hell and I’m feeling free
Never was more than a fantasy
But I fly at night and by your candlelight
My shadow passed your window

I used to have eyes, the colour of sky
Now I can see, in the middle of the night
I used to have eyes, the colour of sky
Now I can see, in the middle of the night

I used to have eyes, the colour of sky
Now I can see, in the middle of the night
I used to have eyes, the colour of sky
Now I can see, in the middle of the night

You wanna fuck me

( Live / Akon Cover “I wanna love you” )

You see me trying to smile up on this pole
But I'm just hiding the pain that’s deep in my soul
You wanna fuck me
And I already know
You wanna fuck me and toss me back on the floor

Simon, my brother, said 'i loved her'
Should I say that he loved me
I was in second grade, he was fourteen
In the shady of the trees
There was a summer breeze
Whole thing's a blurry dream
Behind the house quiet as a mouse
He told me not to even breathe
A secret hard to keep
I didn't know till thirteen
By then I knew what to do
Just an old routine
All the boys had a thing for me

You see me trying to smile up on this pole
But I'm just hiding the pain that’s deep in my soul
You wanna fuck me
And I already know
You wanna fuck me and toss me back on the floor

My mama always said 'you're the brightest star'
In life, you're sure to go so far
Been at this club about four years
Hooked on dope, crying in the mirror
When we were just little girls
We learned to dance in mama’s pearls
Baby bend over and shake that ass
Hey, you wanna come home with me
Hoping you fall in love with me
I could make love to you for free
We could just get a place and start a life
And try to make things right.

You see me trying to smile up on this pole
But I'm just hiding the pain that’s deep in my soul
You wanna fuck me
And I already know
You wanna fuck me and toss me back on the floor
