Big Head
04:27
|

We’ve been through all the trouble that the world likes to throw in our way
made it through the depression in our lives and we live for today
I think I’ll hit the big time it could be any day you know
we’ll get what we want, I think that we should put it on show
I know you want me, that counts for something
I know you want me, something for nothing
I promise I won’t let my head get in the way
I know you want me, that counts for something
I know you love me, something for nothing
I promise I’ll try to keep all my demons at bay
once we’re done with the world we can stop and put it away
in the meantime I’ll bring the bread to the table with the millions I make
something for nothing - nothing is something
I know you love me - I will just shove it
shove all my demons - push all my evils away
I know you’re nothing - something for nothing
nothing is something - you know I’m something
won’t let my big head - big head won’t get in the way
when they take my picture I will try not to let it show
really there’s no difference between pride and ego
they’ll see what I achieved and respect my integrity
hate to think that inside I’d be saying won’t you look at me
I know you love me, I know you love me
something for nothing - you know I’m something
I know you love me - big head won’t get in the way

Reptilian Sky

Will you – won’t you – see me again?
There’s one thing you should know my friend
I am one person you should never doubt
there is something new spinning in and out
If you seem to see me in the scattered light
there is one thing you will do with all your might
if you see me feeling in the scattered light
there is something you would do if you could fight
you come up with meticulous plans
and you say that you don’t fan
the fire in my reptilian sky
there’s one thing that you will do with your knife
There’s one thing you should be
if you should climb in my tree
There’s something to debate
what to do when there’s nothing to hate
There’s one thing you should do
if you find the diamond glue
there’s one thing left to debate
one time to operate
there’s one thing I should do
when your wicked plan is through
everything that we operate
there’s no time left to debate

Something to Do
04:17
|
|||
Did I do it for a while?
It’s something to do with my line.
It’s a rule to come and see.
There’s something left inside of me.
Ahhhhh. I don’t mind.
Whatever you do is fine.
I will always be there for you,
think I need this something to do.
I will always be inside,
for something matters and it’s alright
I will always be afraid,
there’s something there that you left to say
I will be until
something tells me what to do
I will always be ok,
there’s something there that I wanted to say

Gullible Boy
05:04
|
|||
I see you every night
I’m overcome by fright
and I wonder if I’m moving ahead again
and I wonder if I should run away
but I stay
and I feel uncouth
I try to see the truth
but I’m just a fool
I’ll do anything for you
I want to be emancipated
from all the things you say
I want to be forever
free to run astray
but I’m not the one
I’m just
your gullible boy
you’re the one who makes me scream

The Fear
05:32
|

If you were to be something I can see
if you were to know in solemness
til you learn to be, you will never be free
if you were to see inside of me
if you were to know then we could agree
if you were to see, it won’t happen again
I don’t ever want, you to see, you to see me like
I don’t ever want you to see me like that again
I don’t ever want, ever want you to see me again
if you were to know something true about
me, if you grow to see
I don’t ever want you to see me like that again
if you were to go in denial
if you were to see something you can tell
if you were to go, I don’t want you to know
I don’t ever want, you to see, you to see me like
I don’t ever want you to see me like that again
I don’t ever want, ever want you to see me again (x2)
if you were to want something out of me
if you were to say something else to me
I don’t ever think you should see me again
if you were to say something new to me
if you were to be something beautiful
I don’t ever think you should see me again
I don’t ever want, you to see, you to see me like
I don’t ever want you to see me like that again
I don’t ever want, ever want you to see me again (x2)
there’s something new to fear
you say to me
It’s something you should fear
it’s in the fear
I don’t ever want, you to see, you to see me like
I don’t ever want you to see me like that again
I don’t ever want, ever want you to see me again

Everything is Broken
07:22
|
|||
You wake up at a quarter to five
there’s still a little bit of light outside & you know
everything is broken
you have a coffee or a cup of tea
& you know these things in life aren’t free & you wish
you hadn’t awoken
you don’t have to go to work
& every boss you’ve had is a jerk but you think
you should try it again
spare time is great and all, but
without money you’re against a wall & you feel
like a pig in a pen
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 1
you start to feel like you’re having fun
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 2
your mind is empty & there’s nothing to do
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 3
they’re asking you what you wanna be
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 4
these opportunities look like chores, hey!
you sit back and watch the TV
you change the channels but there’s nothing to see, but you wait
for something good to come on
you don’t like to watch the sports
& everything is boring on a court, but you like
the UFC
these guys are matched by the pound
& it sucks when it goes to the ground, and you want
to see them bleed
you wanna see them trading blows
to see who’s tougher & see how it goes, & you want
the underdog to win
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 5
you start to feel like you’re coming alive
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 6
there’s nothing to do but pick up sticks
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 7
you had a friend & his name is Kevin
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 8
she should be home but it’s getting late, & you know
there’s nothing underneath
& you know you should really brush those teeth
your girlfriend comes home from work
for late hours she’s getting perks, & you thank
the lord for that
without her what would you do?
she’s the only one getting you through, & how else
would you feed the cat?
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 9
it’s after dinner & you’re feeling fine
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 10
you’re wondering if this is the end
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 11
you wonder if you’re gonna get to heaven
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 12
into some things you should never delve
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 1
you start to feel like you’re coming undone
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 2
you’re wondering if what they say is true
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 3
the cracks are showing & you’re starting to see
it’s OK it’s a quarter to 4
BABY’S SO TIRED AND SHE WALKS OUT THE DOOR, HEY!

There’s something you should do when you get home
by a blank thing you should see
something you should do when you go home
I will do it for free
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10
numbers numbers they will drive you round the bend
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10
superstition will catch up with you in the end
you should always wash between your toes
these are the smells that go seeping through the air
if you don’t wash your clothes
you will start to get on the nose
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10
numbers numbers they will drive you round the bend
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10
superstition will catch up with you in the end
there’s so many things you should know about
if there’s jumble and second sprouts
you may order what you should be
lifting something I haven’t seen
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10
numbers numbers they will drive you round the bend
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10
superstition will catch up with you in the end
and if you should start to rule about
there’s some things to stick in your mouth
hamburgers and sausage rolls
these are the things for which we pay the tolls
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10
numbers numbers they will drive you round the bend
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10
superstition will catch up with you in the end (x2)
if you think there’s something you should know
well there’s one thing and it’s all up to you
weaponise your tiger really begin
there’s something here and we’re still not sure

Back of My Mind
08:14
|
|||
In the back of my mind
everything shines and I feel alright
your eyes catch the light
the wind blows your hair just right
in the back of my mind I dream you alive
on winter nights
without you by my side I find
I lose track of time
in the front of my head I put my meds
and I go to bed
I smoke cigarettes I eat what I’m fed
hold no regrets
in the front of my head is everything she said
I’m so easily led
hearts can break like stale bread
but I’d rather have faith instead
you make everything go away
you make me wanna stay
you’re never late
you arrive just when you say
and everything is ok

Coming Up for Air
05:26
|

When I’m workin’ I feel like I’m drowning
When I have a day off
it’s like I’m comin’ up for air
It’s like I’m comin’ up for air
When you’re talkin’ I feel like I’m drowning
when you stop I’m comin’ up for air
When you’re feelin’ I feel like I’m seein’
when something is in my hair
I’m comin’ up for air
In the future I see myself
chaining on to something else
In my mind I see you
wondering what to do
in the future I see my sign
and I close my eyes
in the future I see what to do
and somehow I don’t miss you

Losing Teeth
06:17
|

Something that I want
Something that I got
nothing in between
it’s a part of me
in the corner there’s something fine
you want to make it mine
in some ways I can’t see
what it is you do to me
I fall down on the floor
cos I’m always wanting more
and then I lose my teeth
it’s impossible to be me
I’m in the corner
I don’t know why (x4)

Irony
05:28
|

did you know something about me
if you know something about me
won’t you be everything you can see
don’t you be everywhere to stand with me
weren’t you feeling something with me
why are you being, sitting inside me
won’t you go somewhere without me
won’t be dying or somewhere in irony
won’t you go somewhere without me
won’t go down somewhere without me

The Greatest Day
03:58
|

It was the greatest day in Heaven
it was the greatest day in Hell (x2)
when all the kings' men
put down their swords
and all the friends were reunited
and their hearts were filled with joy
I know you
don’t believe in such things
but you know I
can hear the angels sing
It was the greatest day in Heaven
it was the greatest day in Hell (x4)
