I think "Long Island" has to be one of my favourite songs EVER.

how you wanna tag my style when I am so superior?
how you wanna hate a thing when you are so inferior?
how you wanna mess how you wanna mess my spotless interior?
let's just say you are not the destroyer
I've got my bright girl near me, she's so much taller
with a crisp endorsement from the C.C.A.A. Booty Patrol
she's so meta, references Stendhal,
shares my strange urge to smash a window in every house on our block
delinquent days are here again

Watch the sun
As it crawls across a final time
And it feels like
Like it was a friend
If it's watching us
And the world we set on fire
Do you wonder
If it feels the same?

And the sky is filled with light
Can you see it?
All the black is really white
If you believe it
As your time is running out
Let me take away your doubt
You can find a better place
In this twilight

From dust to dust
Ashes in your hair remind me
What it feels like
And I won't feel again
Night descends
Could I have been a better person
If I could only do it all again?

And the sky is filled with light
Can you see it?
All the black is really white
If you believe it
And the longing that you feel
You know none of this is real
You will find a better place
In this twilight

the civil wars
and the uncivilized wars
conflagrations leap out of every poor furnace
the food cooks poorly
and everyone goes hungry from then on
it's DOG EAT DOG dog eat body
& body eat dog
i can't go down there
i can't understand it
I'M A NO-GOOD COWARD & an american too
a north american that is
not a south or a central or a native american
oh i must not think bad thoughts
I'M GUILTY OF MURDER
of innocent men innocent women
innocent children thousands of them
my planes my guns my money
my soul my blood on my hands
it's all my fault

I MUST NOT THINK BAD THOUGHTS
I MUST NOT THINK BAD THOUGHTS

_____, play with my head
I won't know the difference
if we're living in the novelist or statistician
_____, mess with my concepts, my innervision
like a strobing light please confuse my every decision

My daddy was an astronaut
That's what I was often taught
My daddy went away too soon
Now he's living on the moon

Hang on to me, people, we're going down
Down among the fishes and an absence of sound
It's the presence of distance and it's floating in time
It's lack, and it's longing, and it's not very kind

Sitting here scratching in this rented room
Scratching and tapping to the man in the moon
And all the things that I've been taught
My daddy was an astronaut

You look out of your window,
Into the night.
Could be rain, could be snow,
But it cant feel as cold as youre feeling inside.

And all of you friends are either married, vanished,
Or just left alone.
But thats no reason to just stop living.
Thats no excuse to just give in to a sad and lonely heart.

Dont forget to dance, no, no, no,
Dont forget to smile.
Dont forget to dance, no, no, no,
Forget it for a while.

cause darling, darling,
I bet you danced a good one in your time.
And if this were a party
Id really make sure the next one would be mine.
Yes, you with the broken heart.

Dont forget to dance, no, no, no,
Dont forget to smile.
Dont forget to dance, no, no, no,
Forget it for a while.

Dont forget to dance, no, no, no,
Forget it for a while.

You walk down the street
And all the young punks whistle at you.
A nice bit of old,
Just goes to show what you can achieve
With the right attitude.
As you pass them by
They whisper their remarks one to another,
And you give them the eye
Even that you know that you could be their mother.
You do the thing you love the most.
What separates you from the rest,
And what you love to do the most?
And when they ask me how you dance,
I say that you dance real close.

Dont forget to dance, no, no, no,
Dont forget to dance.

17:28 / 21.03.07
you’re such a mystery
I just want to stand and stare
nibble on your ear
and smell the ocean in your hair
you know you damage me
you leave me tangled in a knot
but when you reappear
I see Neptunian blues that eyes forgot

I only feel alive when the vu’s flashing
alarms going off in my head
I want to grab you and just kiss you
maybe I should sit down
no sense in cashing us now
still I only feel alright when the vu’s flashing
bombs going off in my head
I want to grab you
want to scream at you
no icing me down
the party’s crashing us now

I think im drowning
Asphyxiating
I wanna break the spell
That you've created

You're something beautiful
A contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

You will be
The death of me
Yeah, you will be
The death of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

Our time is running out
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted

Now that you know I'm trapped
Sense of elation
You'd never dream of breaking this fixation
You will squeeze the life out of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

And our time is running out
And our time is running out
You can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?

And you will suck the life out of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

And our time is running out
And our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out

How did it come to this?

10:17 / 22.03.07

I remember when I was a very little girl, our house caught on fire.

I'll never forget the look on my father's face as he gathered me up in his arms and raced through the burning building out to the pavement.

I stood there shivering in my pajamas and watched the whole world go up in flames.

And when it was all over I said to myself... "Is that all there is to a fire...?"


Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is...

And when I was 12 years old, my father took me to a circus, the greatest show on earth.

There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears.

And a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads.

And so I sat there watching the marvelous spectacle.

I had the feeling that something was missing.

I don't know what, but when it was over, I said to myself... "Is that all there is to the circus...?"

Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
Because if that's all there is my friends
Then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is...

Then I fell in love, head over heels in love, with the most wonderful boy in the world.

We would take long walks by the river or just sit for hours gazing into each other's eyes.

We were so very much in love.

Then one day he went away and I thought I'd die, but I didn't.

And when I didn't I said to myself, "Is that all there is to love...?"

Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing...


I know what you must be saying to yourselves.

If that's the way she feels about it why doesn't she just end it all?

Oh, no.

Not me.

I'm in no hurry for that final disappointment.

For I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to you, when that final moment comes and I'm breathing my last breath, I'll be saying to myself...

"Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is..."

Seven am;
The garbage truck beeps as it backs up
And I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away.
Could I push rewind?
The credits traverse, signifying the end
But I missed the best part.
Could we please go back to the start?
Forgive my indecision

Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.

Eleven am,
By now you would think that I would be up
But my bedsheets shade the heat of choices I've made
And what did I find?
I never thought I could want someone so much
'Cause now you're not here and I'm knee deep in that old fear.
Forgive my indecision... I am only a man.

Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, a day will come when I want off that ride.

Twelve pm and my dusty telephone rings.
Heavy head up from my pillow, who could it be?
I hope its you.

Then again, you're always first when no one's on your side
But, then again, the day has come and I want off that ride.
 
 
Matthew Fluxington
01:39 / 23.03.07
Just when you're ready to take on the world
Some other guy had to get there first
And it's obvious that you're a girl that's after her own heart
But you know where I am
And you know what I want
And I know I'll never have you completely alone
So I'm trying to draw up a contingency plan
And it's obvious that you're a girl that's after her own heart
But you know where I am
And you know that you could have both

Regrettable Juvenilia
07:22 / 28.03.07
when you walk through the Garden
you better watch your back
oh, I beg your pardon
walk the straight and narrow track
if you walk with Jesus
he's gonna save your soul
but you got to keep the Devil
way down in the hole

he got the fire and the fury
at his command
well, you don't have to worry
hold on to Jesus' hand
we'll be safe from Satan
when the thunder rolls
we just got to keep the Devil
way down in the hole

way down in the hole
way down in the hole

FIELDS, THEY HAVE EYES
WOODS, THEY HAVE EARS
FISH ALWAYS SINK
HEAD FIRST DOWNWARD
NEVER DISMOUNT
I RIDE THIS TIGER
CROSSES ARE LADDERS
LEADING TO HEAVEN

I'M A WARRIOR
I TAKE NO PRISONER

KEEP THIS CANDLE BURNING
BRIGHT IN THE WINDOW
IT'S THE ONLY LIGHT
I'LL SEE TONIGHT
BEGGARS CAN'T BE CHOOSERS
SHROUDS, THEY HAVE NO POCKETS
SOME OF US WAKE UP
OTHERS ROLL OVER

BUT NOT I
I'M A WARRIOR
THIS IS MY LAND
I'M A WARRIOR

THIS IS MY LAND, I'LL NEVER SURRENDER
I'M A WARRIOR

HEAR THIS DOG BARK
WATCH THE TREES SWAY
KEEP THIS CANDLE BURNING
BOTH NIGHT AND DAY
MANY INVADE
I TAKE NO QUARTER
THIS IS MY LAND
I'LL NEVER SURRENDER

I'M A WARRIOR

THIS IS MY LAND
I'LL NEVER SURRENDER

I'M A WARRIOR
I'LL NEVER SURRENDER
I TAKE NO PRISONER
I'M A WARRIOR

WARRIOR
I'M A WARRIOR
THESE FIELDS HAVE EYES
THESE WOODS HAVE EARS
MANY INVADE, BUT I TAKE NO QUARTER
THIS IS MY LAND
I'M A WARRIOR

I'M A WARRIOR
I'LL NEVER DISMOUNT

Tumble outta bed
And stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
Yawnin, stretchin, try to come to life
Jump in the shower
And the blood starts pumpin
Out on the streets
The traffic starts jumpin
And folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

Workin 9 to 5
What a way to make a livin
Barely gettin by
Its all takin
And no givin
They just use your mind
And they never give you credit
Its enough to drive you
Crazy if you let it


9 to 5, for service and devotion
You would think that I
Would deserve a fair promotion
Want to move ahead
But the boss won't seem to let me
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me
Mmmmm...

They let you dream
Just to watch 'em shatter
You're just a step
On the boss man's ladder
But you got dreams he'll never take away...

Is dexter ill, is dexter ill, is dexter ill
Is dexter ill today, mr kirk, dexters in school
Im afraid he's not, miss fishborne
Dexters truancy problem is way out of hand
The baltimore county school board have decided to expel
Dexter from the entire public school system

Oh mr kirk, Im as upset as you to learn of dexters truancy
But surely, expulsion is not the answer!
Im afraid expulsion is the only answer
Its the opinion of the entire staff that dexter is criminally insane

That boy needs therapy, psychosomatic,
That boy needs therapy, purely psychosomatic
That boy needs therapy
Lie down on the couch! what does that mean?
Youre a nut! youre crazy in the coconut!
What does that mean? that boy needs therapy
Im gonna kill you, that boy needs therapy
Ranagazoo, lets have it to you
On the count of three
That, that, that, that, that boy.. boy needs therapy
He was white as a sheet
And he also made false teeth

Avalanches is above, business continues below
Did I ever tell you the story about
Cowboys! bit , bit bitches and the indians and, fron, frontier psychiatrist
I... I felt strangely hypnotised
I was in another world, a world of 20.000 girls
And milk! rectangles, to an optometrist, the man with the golden eyeball
And tighten your buttocks, pour juice on your chin
I promise my girlfriend id... the violin, violin, violin ...

Frontier psychiatrist
Frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier
Frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier
Frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier

That boy needs therapy, psychosomatic
That boy needs therapy, purely psychosomatic
That boy needs therapy
Lie down on the couch, what does that mean?
Youre a nut! youre crazy in the coconut!
What does that mean? that boy needs therapy
Im gonna kill you, that boy needs therapy
Ranagazoo, lets have a tune
Now when I count three
That, that, that, that, that boy.. boy needs therapy
He was white as a sheet
And he also made false teeth

Can you think of anything else that talks, other than a person?
Uh ohh... uh oh, a bird! yeah!
Sometimes a parrot talks
Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
Yes, some birds are funny when they talk
Can you think of anything else
A record, record, record, record!

i got it bad
you don't know how bad i got it
you got it easy
you don't know when you got it good
it's getting harder
just keeping life and soul together
I'm sick of fighting
even though i know i should
the cold is biting
through each and every nerve and fibre
my broken spirit is frozen to the core
don't wanna be here no more

wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes
even if it was for just one day
and wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away
wouldn't it be good to be on your side
the grass is always greener over there
wouldn't it be good if we could live without a care

you must be joking
you don't know a thing about it
you've got no problem
I'd stay right there if it were you
i got it harder
you couldn't dream how hard i got it
stay out of my shoes
f you know what's good for you
the heat is stifling
burning me up from the inside
the sweat is coming through each and every pore
don't wanna be here no more

wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes
even if it was just for one day
and wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away
wouldn't it be good to be on your side
the grass is always greener over there
and wouldn't it be good if we could live without a care

Some feel the excitement of boredom,
and some don't.
But one day you will step outside...
and you will feel the heat.
You will hear the sirens of death,
And they sound afraid.

We're back where we were ten years ago...

...and I'm feeling like I'm starting my old life from new.

This is your last chance.
What's on your mind?!

Nothing.
I'm gonna die for nothing,
Nothing else that matters,
But what do you want from me?
Anti-fashion seems to be fashion too by now,
I don't need stupid policemen taking care about me,
I don't need anyone,
I take it all by myself.
Myself.
Can you hear me?!
Can you hear me?!

Tell me the truth you fuckface.
Gonna kill anyone for more,
Suck me up for a better reason and I'm gonna cut you short.
If only technology keeps moving you forward,
And you're not prepared for the future,
You become a naive child,
Left in an information overload unit,
What's holding us back is time.

Worldleaders choose worldleaders,
Not us,
Not democracy,
Not a revolution,
Time to stop the germanization of the planet.
I've a fear of a white planet.

I redefine the enemy,
Redefine the enemy,
I have to redefine the enemy,
I redefine the enemy.

Redefine the enemy! Redefine the enemy!

I broke the ice,
And I drowned,
They want you dead but alive enough to function.

Everything gets out of control,
But what do you do?
Tonight?
Let's get back on the street.
Start living again.

Anything worth having is worth fighting for,
It's important that the future is on our side,
On my side,
On my side.
White house and white snow.

The final moment has come,
It's all over.
It seems that you still have power in reserve,
But we are winning.

Are you praying in your despair?

I redefine the enemy,
I redefine the enemy,
I redefine the enemy,
We've got to redefine the enemy.

Here I come,
Don't bother me,
There's nothing we can do,
It's not my style to just wait to be killed,
I'll wipe you all out.

Now is the chance,
I'm covered by a blue shadow,
I fear no longer,
I fear no longer,
I fear no longer.

I redefine the enemy,
Redefine the enemy,
I redefine the enemy,
Redefine the enemy,
I've got to redefine the enemy,
Redefine the enemy,
Redefine the enemy.

I was stranded on a planet, Just me and Spock
We met a nasty nazi alien who locked our asses up
We found a hunk of crystal and a metal piece of bed
We made a laser phaser gun and shot him in the head

Bust a move, Tog

I was standing on the bridge when Sulu came to me
His eyes were full of tears he said "Captain, can't you see
the ship is gonna blow do something I beseech"
I grabbed a tribble and some chewing gum and stopped the warp core breach

And I say,
Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish
Thats the way we do things, lad, we're making shit up as we wish
The Klingons and the Romulans pose no threat to us
'Cause if we find we're in a bind we just make some shit up

And though he's just a child, and some think him a twit
Wesley is the master when it comes to making up some shit
He's the guy you want with you when you go out in space
Now if only he could beam those pimples off his face

And if you're at a party on the starship Enterprise
And the karaoke player just plain old up and dies
Set up a neutrino field inside a can of peas
Hold on to Geordi's visor and sing into Data's knee

And I say
Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish
Thats the way we do things lad, we're making shit up as we wish
The Klingons and the Romulans pose no threat to us
'Cause if we find we're in a bind we just make some shit up

Sisko's on a mission to go no bloody place
He loiters on a space station above Bajoran space
The wormhole's opened up and now they come from near and far
We'll keep the booze but please send back the fucking Jem-hadar

What is with the Klingons, remember in the day
They looked like Puerto Ricans and they dressed in gold lame
Now they look like heavy metal rockers from the dead
With leather pants and frizzy hair and lobsters on their heads

And I say
Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish
Thats the way we do things lad, we're making shit up as we wish
The Klingons and the Romulans pose no threat to us
'Cause if we find we're in a bind we just make some shit up

Well, I was stuck on Voyager, pounding on the door
When suddently it dawned on me I've seen this show before
Perhaps I'm in a warp bubble and slightly out of phase
'Cause it was way back in the sixties when they called it "Lost in Space"

We were looking for a way to make the ratings soar
So we orchestrated an encounter with the Borg
Normally you'd think that that would get us into shit
But this one has a smashing ass and a lovely set of tits

And I say
Bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish
Thats the way we do things lad, we're making shit up as we wish
The Klingons and the Romulans pose no threat to us
'Cause if we find we're in a bind we're totally screwed but nevermind
We'll pull something out of our behinds, we just make some shit up

Under the ruins of a walled city
Crumbling towers and beams of yellow light
No flags of truce, no cries of pity
The siege guns had been pounding all through the night
It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the field's I'd known
I recognized the walls that I once made
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge
For I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

Then I went off to fight some battle
That I'd invented inside my head
Away so long for years and years
You probably thought or even wished that I was dead
While the armies are all sleeping
Beneath the tattered flag we'd made
I had to stop in my track for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge
For I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

This prison has now become your home
A sentence you seem prepared to pay
It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the fields where I'd once played
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge
For I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire


Yes, I am aware of the cheesiness of the song. But I rather like it.

Well be together again
Ive been waiting for a long time
Were gonna be were gonna be
Together again
Ive been connected
To the right line
Well be together
And nobody never
Gonna disconnect us
Or ever separate us
Or say to us youve got to

Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Dont jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love

Break it down again

So those are my dreams
And these are my eyes
Stand tall like a man
Head strong like a horse

When it's all mixed up
Better break it down
In the world of secrets
In the world of sound

It's in the way you're always hiding from the light
See for yourself you have been sitting on a time bomb
No revolution maybe someone somewhere else
Could show you something new about you and your inner song
And all the love and all the love in the world
Won't stop the rain from falling
Waste seeping underground
I want to break it down

Break it down again

So those are my schemes
And these are my plans
Hot tips for the boys
Fresh news from the force

When it's all mixed up
Better break it down
In the world of silence
In the world of sound

" No sleep for dreaming" say the architects of life
Big bouncing babies, bread and butter can I have a slice
They make no mention of the beauty of decay
Blue, yellow, pink umbrella save it for a rainy day
And all the love and all the love in the world
Won't stop the rain from falling
Waste seeping underground
I want to break it down

Horsin' around
Pray to power
Play to the crowd with your big hit sound
And they won't simmer won't simmer, won't simmer down
Play to the crowd
Pay to the crowd
Play yeah yeah

It's in the way you're always hiding from the light
Fast off to heaven just like Moses on a motorbike
No revolution maybe someone somewhere else
Could show you something new to help
With the ups and downs
I want to break it down
Break it down again

Break it down again
No more sleepy dreaming
No more building up
It is time to dissolve
Break it down it again
No more sleepy dreaming

You've left quite a mess here
Under your stewardship
You thought you'd figured it out but
You'll learn your place in this
Might take some convincing
For you to see the truth
There are so many things
We've got in store for you

Count down to the end
Gotta make it come faster, faster
Right around the bend
Is a coming disaster
Count down to the end
And we're headed there faster
Come on down my friend
It's time to meet your master


Meet Your Master - NIN

Well, you're my friend, that's what you told me
And can you see what's inside me?

Many times we've been out drinking
And many times we've shared our thoughts
But did you ever, ever notice
The kind of thoughts I got?
Well, you know I have a love
A love for everyone I know
And you know I have a drive
To live; I won't let go
But could you see its opposition
Comes rising up sometimes?
And its dreadful end position
Comes blacking in my mind

And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
Did you know how much I love you?
Is there hope that somehow you, you
Can save me from this darkness?

I hope that some day, buddy
We have peace in our lives
Together or apart
Alone or with our wives
And we can stop our whoring
And pull the smiles inside
And light it up forever
And never go to sleep
My best unbeaten brother
This isn't all I see

Oh no, I see a darkness
Oh no, I see a darkness
Oh no, I see a darkness
Oh no, I see a darkness
Did you know how much I love you?
Is there hope that somehow you, you
Can save me from this darknes?

Leonard Cohen. Bird on the Wire. That's about precisely how I feel right now.

Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If i, if I have been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it go by.
If i, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you.

Like a baby, stillborn,
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song
And by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
He said to me, you must not ask for so much.
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
She cried to me, hey, why not ask for more?

Oh like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

Say your name
Try to speak as clearly as you can
You know everything is written down
Nod your head
Just in case they could be watching
With their shiny satellites

I hope they cannot see
The limitless potential living inside of me
To murder everything
I hope they cannot see
I am the great destroyer

Turn it on
Listen to the shit they pump into your head
Filling you with apathy
Hold your breath
Wait until you know the time is right
On time, the end is near

I hope they cannot see
The limitless potential living inside of me
To murder everything
I hope they cannot see
I am the great destroyer

I took my love and I took it down
Climbed a mountain then I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the... snow covered hills
Well the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky...
What is love?
Can the child within my heart, rise above
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Uh ah ...... uh ah..uh ah...

Well, I've been afraid of changin'
'Cause I've, built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too

Well ...

Well, I've been afraid of changin'
'Cause I've, built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too

Well, I'm getting older too

So...... take this love, take it down
And if you climb a mountain and ya turn around
And If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide brought it down

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills

Well maybe ... Well maybe ... Well maybe ...

The landslide will bring you down.

A lonely silhouette smoking a cigarette
Hoping for the phone to ring
Though she's sick of the sound of people's mouths
Winding her up and putting her down

Don't get sad
When people that you trust stab you in the back
So you thought they were your friends?
Now you know, now you know
There's one thing in life that hurts

And now she wants to cry, staying in on Friday nights
Lying in her birthday suit
Listening to the bickering from the room above
And wondering if it's loneliness or love
That keeps people like that together forever

Don't get sad
When people that you trust stab you in the back
So you thought they were your friends?
Now you know, now you know
There's one thing in life that hurts
You're on your own
You gotta grow
You're on your own

In all fairness, Matt Johnson was perhaps as high as a kite (albeit a kite that was being bombed by the American military industrial complex) when he wrote that.

I'm a fan of The The's last album, but shouldn't it have been called 'I'm Going To The Gents', 'Jesus', or 'This Is A Bad Situation'?

The first time I made coffee for just myself, I made too much of it, but I drank it all
Just cause you hate it when I let things go to waste
And I wandered through the house like a little boy lost in the mall
And an astronaut could've seen the hunger in my eyes from space
