Lyrics

I Wouldn't Bet The Farm

We were friends

And that's how it begins

We moved slowly through a park one summer night

I've been meaning to tell you that I've been somewhat upset

Not that it is important, but I haven't done it yet

I know better than to fall in love, if that's what you call it

I wouldn't bet the farm, but I guess that's what I did

Your know I'm lost without you

I'm paralyzed

That's why I've got to

Repair my whine

In the nick of time

Shoo the mime

I know I ought to

Now and then I want more than a friend

And I'm willing to destroy what isn't mine

Why why why?

Truck

I thought about it

But you were wrong

I shouldn't stop it

Doing it all night and all through the day

I might dick around forever

No no

Maybe so

In and out of lanes up and down the avenue

Hoping that a truck will come and run me over soon

Now I know I've got it

I see a stranger and I have to shout it

Maybe the things I say and do are not too cool

But it's so unlikely

Only Human

Late last night she gave me a hand

You know that I love it and I don't give a damn

Can you relate to me lovely, several hundred more times?

If you fell through the ceiling that'd be mighty divine

She's got long lash eyes and faking surprise

Get my balls, decide

Maybe I should go hide

Human

Only human

Whether she leaves

Whether shallow

The same thing happened the very next day

Until I grabbed me a napkin after cleaning my plate

She said that I look good when I'm going away

So I kept on walking till I got to LA

There were song men cheating on fourth of July

And a threadbare suit that was easy to try

The same thing happened the very next day

Until I tipped up to the wall and ordered Mount Gay

A splash of coke and a lime and oh! I can't pay

The sun keeps a howling down about "What'd that criminal say?"

You've got that seminal hit that flew back you gack bit of that push and pull back

Over that love shack here's a forecast you can't shoo that bitterland tune back

Mr. Wonderful

I'm feeling well I'm feeling fine

I've got the blues and they're not mine

Everybody loves to see

A greedy man feeling ugly

And I might fall tomorrow

With these wounds I stole and borrowed

It chokes me up to have to see

It cracks me up to hear your dreams

And what you really think they mean

Everybody pays to see

A handsome man take money

And I might fall tomorrow

It's a bull market on sorrow

Idiot Box

Please leave me out of this

All I wanted was a kiss, don't you believe me?

When you go back and forth, could it be that

Your love is pure for sport though you seethe at

My buddies the highons, who follow the Lions

The trouble with crying is that I'd be lying

All I ever wanted was a true love

Without feeling I would have to memorize the words to her favorite song

And it's by me

Please lead me into bliss

All I want is to be missed, you've got to believe me

When you go back and forth could it be that

Your love is of a sort that I sneeze at

Listen to me, listen to me

I'm not going to be what you want me to be

We live in idiot box

I Want You To Do Things That I Say

Oh no not this again

I thought that you knew it

I'm a particular man

I'm crafting my bliss

I thought that you understood how to engage me

No no don't hesitate

You know I'd like this chance to relate

I'd like to take this chance to relate

I want you to do things that I say

Tell me it's forgivable

Gabby, make me a highball

Be unforgettable

Catch me when I fall

Imbecile grin and all

Here we go from the top again

I hope that you get this

I'm a very motivated man

With an opportunity to state

I'd like to take this chance to relate

I want you to do things that I say

Hard To Believe

Who wants her now?

A queue from a crowd winds around several city blocks

She's been interred by her own words

And her suitors' panting speech is mostly slurred

Baby, you are hard to believe

And it's all in the way she loves to share

All the misery that she can not bear

To relate to her glad-handed affairs

The high life is hers

It just occurs every time she opens up her mouth

And when she does, it is because

Her elephantine pride has spied a mouse

Hard To Believe

Who wants her now?

A queue from a crowd winds around several city blocks

She's been interred by her own words

And her suitors' panting speech is mostly slurred

Baby, you are hard to believe

And it's all in the way she loves to share

All the misery that she can not bear

To relate to her glad-handed affairs

The high life is hers

It just occurs every time she opens up her mouth

And when she does, it is because

Her elephantine pride has spied a mouse

Don't Hurry Me

Don't hurry me

I'm not laying in bed

I'm out on the street

Just like I said

Head in the left lane and feet in the right

I'm comfortable here

All day and all night

Don't hurry me

I heard what you said

Move it or lose it

And it is my head

But can I draw flies?

Yeah!

Please mister sir you don't understand

I'm really tired and I've been taking a nap

Don't hurry me

Oh!

Oh! Oh! my head

You have driven over my head

If I could stand

I'd lay down again

Blues In Diane

Blues in Diane

Will I ever get to see her again?

Can I even believe till then?

She's been so far right

Blues in Diane

Walking slowly in the sea and the sand

Like in a movie where they're holding hands

And they never fight

We don't like to speak about it

But when we do we shout it to the moon

We don't like to scream about it

We leave 'em in our little thought balloons

Bitter Greens

I hear laughter up among the cobwebs

They rise and fall with the evening breeze

I'm lying on my back on top of valentines

Never sent, they make me sick to read

I say I do and then I don't

I say I will and then I won't

Uh uh baby, it's my turn to hide

From blonde to black to brown and then to redhead

She sighs and I'm in darker clouds

It didn't make much difference when I knew her

It doesn't make much difference now

Bitter greens with vinaigrette

Your table sir for one is set

Your waiter's name is Steve

He's kind of slow

I say I will and then I won't

I say I do and then I don't

Uh uh baby, it's my turn to fly

I've always wanted to be by your side

I've always wanted too much

I think if I forget her I'll be alright

Though we both know I'm the one that's up and gone

Bitter greens with vinaigrette

Your table sir for one is set

Your waiter is deceased

Help yourself

When You Wake Up

Come to me, don't slip away too far

You can be too much the way you are

I'd love to stay, but really

Call me someday when you wake up

Please believe I'm not in the mood for a fight

Can't you see?

I've only turned out the light

I would love to say sincerely

It'll be ok as it once was

I don't want to stay and I know it's early

Call me someday when you wake up

Ruthless

I'm mounted on the fences that have organized my head

As cameras roam the country side

If they don't shoot me I'll be dead

I was sent here to protect the crop

But I'm tempted to defect and drop the first approaching thought

All the functionary heads I've tumbled

How can I subvert this mental state?

This dagger poking dictates I might fumble

I'm ruthless

I'm afraid

The pile of severed noses rises higher to spite my face

Should I lop off another one or reconsider my fate?

In the stillness I know as God

There is a serious lack of dialogue

And it troubles me

Here's one last boring episode of that sitcom in which I starred

I felt it was a drama and that really fed the lark

But I'm not amused

I'm gonna pitch strikes through that picture tube

July

Here where I rose and I fell

Crickets cajoling

I in the once and future dwell

Troubled with not knowing

This is not the place that I want to be

Not even a race that I want to lead

Should have been ahead but I'm on my knees

Can't even begin to take the dis from ease

Now what the rumor foretold

Is slowly unfolding

How in this heat I can still feel cold

Is nothing consoling

Maybe it's just July

I'm Gonna Dedicate This One To You

Whatever you said, I've already heard

You've said it a thousand times

I rest assured

I'm wasting my time

Whatever you said, it all sounds the same

You've shown up a thousand times

And you'll show up again

I'm gonna dedicate this one to you

And your romantic lies

I'm all out of moonshine, I know it's serious

You've said it a thousand times

I'm almost curious
