Don't you know I'm alive
and I'm waiting for it
I can feel it inside- oh yeah- I'm calling out to it
You know it's right: right as can be
And I'm thinking you would get right back to me
But you send me an

You're Out of the Office
(I sent you an electronic mail today, re: Humboldt County and its majestic shores. And I was SO excited when you got right back to me, but you know what?? You know what it was?)

Spell It Out

Come on, come on, come on, come on
I know you you know what's going on
I know you know I know what you see through...
Do I have to spell it out for you?
Well, to B-E S-P-E-C-I-F-I-C, you see me
through those D-A-Ngerous E-Y-E-S Y-E-S
Y-E-S Y-E-S O-O-O
Come on, come on, come on, come on
I know you you know what's going on
I know you know I know what we could do:
Do I have to spell it out for you?
Well, to B-E S-P-E-C-I-F-I-C, you see me

Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Do I have to spell it out for you?

Take Us With You
01:59

I can hear you pacing
out in the hallway
I can hear you breathing
under my skin
I can hear your heart beating
outside the window
I can feel you knowing
when to begin
And there's not a sound in this world that you've ever heard before like this
Take us with you!
Take us with you when you go!
I can see you rising up
above the water
I can feel your eyes all
over my skin
I can feel my heart breaking
in half a second
I can feel it starting over again
And there's not a sound in this world that you've ever heard before like this
Take us with you!
Take us with you when you go!
When you go When you go When you go home
When you go home, there's a reason
There's an intricacy that probably will be in season
What you find out when you go home: there's a complexity that ceases to be
When you go
When you go home
When you go home
When you go home
Take us with you! Take us with you when you go!

Lay out the pattern for me
Turn the key and loose the lock
Swing the door and then be shocked
as it knocks you on the floor
Sprinting past you- thick and fast you
are lying on the floor
I've got a list to give you of things that aren't gonna go too easily and it goes:
1. This moment
2. The next moment
3. The memory of you in items 1 and 2
Lay out the pattern for me
Look at me and shut your mouth
Flocks of birds are flying South
as things begin to freeze
Looking down they see you and they say,
I've got a list to give you of things that aren't gonna go too easily and it goes:
1. This moment
2. The next moment
3. The memory of you in items 1 and 2

How Real You Are

Conformists and Bureaucrats:
they will not help you here-
The systems that go like that:
they are the picture of irrelevance here
And you think that you know, but do you really know-
How Real You Are
how rare is the light
How near can the sun really be on a night like tonight?
How Real You Are
how rare is the light
How real can someone really be on a night like tonight?
This night is a driver (you're making references)
Who looks at you in the rearview mirror (to everything you've ever seen)
Hello. Where we heading? (where we gonna sleep tonight?)
"Hello?"
How Real You Are

What's Happening to Me?
02:41
|

Whoa whoa whoa
Do you know
What's happening to me?
Don't you say that it's as bad as it could be-
Can't you see I'm IMPLODING like a STAR in here
with a sad and lonely and disintegrating soul
Whoa whoa whoa
Do you know
What's happening to you?
Don't you say that there is nothing you can do-
Can't you see we're EXPLODING into the STRATOSPHERE
to what orbits above the places everybody knows
What's happening, what's happening to me?
I'm alone in a crowded room with a magazine
What's happening, what's happening to me?
I'm outside myself and everything looks empty.
(I'm ashamed to say: I was complicit entirely
in the simple way it became a commodity..
and all of the oddities that followed, and all of the bullshit that we swallowed:
WE ARE A PART OF IT)
Drop your pen accidentally on the floor.
When you bend to pick it up, you'll see me standing by the door
Close your eyes,
Try to pretend
That none of this
None of this will end
What's happening, what's happening to me?
I'm alone in a crowded room and it's deafening me
What's happening, what's happening to me?
I'm outside myself and looking at a shell and it's empty.

White Mercedes

Take it down three notches and that's probably where we are.
Get your head up off the bar and take notice
I know you can't breathe the air down here without a filter of some kind
And you had all of us in mind at this moment
Give give give
Give us a
Break break break
'Cause we can't
Take take take
What you're spewing out, spewing out. Get your
Face face face
out of my
Face Face Face
What rhymes with FACE FACE FACE?
(there's no trace of a space in this place for your stupid face)
Picking your teeth in your white mercedes -
Your mouth says no but your eye says maybe
Once a quandry, Twice a lady, Three times in this type of shady-
OH YEAH! (I've been trying to say) OH YEAH!
RECKLESS PERSON
OH YEAH!
