Bathing in bike rust
Breathing in moondust
Burning through ions
Keep up or get lost
Sitting in TV static
Sifting through the sand
Blasting through traffic
Grains of rice slipping through my hand
Breathing in moondust
Burning through ions
Waking up alone

Zuul 2
03:38
|
|||
|
I was all alone
Pickin' up the phone to call for
Someone
But then I felt something become
A little more of me
A spicy mystery
A faithful friend indeed
Oh, a faithful friend indeed
So I gave up the reins
And now I’m not the same
Not another crying dame
Please not another crying dame
Now I’m princess cool
Now I’m not such a fool
Now there’s only zuul
Now there's only zuul
So come closer
And spit out all your holy water
Just to taste
The sweat that’s drippin' off this face
And brewin' up a storm
Knockin' at your door
Chewin' up the floor
Chewin' up the floor
Now I’m princess cool
Now I'm not such a fool
Now there’s only zuul

The Magician
04:11

He sleeps in velvet cocoons on the full moon
How about you?
He dines on nothing but wishbones and plum juice
Ain’t that the truth?
We’re waiting
He’s ready
We’re waving
He’s waving
We’re waiting
And he’s gone
He sings with desert coyotes in the same key
Wish it were me
How many tricks are there hiding up his sleeve?
Can you believe?
He charms up ladies like me with one little wink
Oh lord help me
We’re waiting
He’s ready
We’re waving
He’s waving
We’re waiting
Now he’s gone
Teach me how you do what you do and then some
Cause I’d like to put such a spell on you too

Octavail
05:07
|
|||
|
I heard the octavail calling your name
Amidst the drowning thought bubbles and autumn rain
I saw the constellations try to spell out all your scars
I think it worked, it worked like a charm
And then I'll do a little dance for you
In an empty room
And I'll do a puzzle of you
That no one wants to do
I’ll eat the words for you
With a silver spoon
And I’ll howl out loud for you
Under the killing moon
If I kissed a hummingbird
If I never said a word
If I said my prayers backwards
If you wove evening fog out of the tangles in my hair
If you used railroad tracks to build some more steps on the stairs
Could you take us there?
Down where there’s no more air
And I'll do a little dance for you
In an empty room
But I'll do a puzzle of you
That no one wants to do
And I’ll eat the words for you
With a silver spoon
And I’ll howl out loud for you
Under the killing moon
And I’ll trade my gold for fools
So we can dig them too
And I’ll bake a cake for you
And I’ll eat it too
And I’ve got a sirens mouth for you
From the ocean blue
And I’ll howl out loud for you
Under the killing moon

Catching light in our tea cups
Cryin little dew drops of aloe
Luminous and sweet moths hummin along
Padding through the pond
Padding through the pond
Whistling with the willows
There’s no wipers for our windows
Our windows
We share umbrellas with any lonely skylight
Playing cards with dragonflies
Playing cards with dragonflies
There’s nothin to do but rain
There’s nothin to do but rain
We paint with fairy dust
As the cattails kiss us
In the evening dusk
Lazin on our lily pads
No one ever gets mad
Smellin lemon grass
Following the lightning bugs conducting the tree frogs
As they croak these secret songs
Crickets join the symphony
With their legs a’chirpin
In the major key
Now there’s nothin but rain
Now there’s nothin but rain
Now there’s nothin but rain

Red Moon
05:44

You love me warmer than this red moon in the sky
And you kiss me sweeter than a lifetime spent eating apple pie
You’re my night light
A real Mr. Right
Cooling me down when I’m high and dry
Baby you make my days so bright
I feel like I’ve gone blind
From staring at your sunshine
So don’t worry bout the bad days
We love each other just fine
We love each other just fine
We love each other just fine
You gave me more shivers than this cool evening rain
If you drive me this crazy, then I must make you insane
But baby give me all your aches
I’ll try to take your pain
Baby you make my days so bright
I feel like I’ve gone blind
From staring at your sunshine
So don’t worry bout the bad days
We love each other just fine
We love each other just fine
We love each other just fine
You’re my night light
A real Mr. Right
Cooling me down when I’m high and dry
Baby you make my days so bright
I feel like I’ve gone blind
From staring at your sunshine
So don’t worry bout the bad days
We love each other just fine
We love each other just fine
We love each other just fine

Ode to a Wide Window
05:50
|
|||
|
My flowers say they’re sore
From growing no more
And they miss reaching up towards the sky
And my windows are all sighing
As they watch the time flying
And feel like the world is passing them by
And I plead with my friends
And say there’s nothing out there for them
But heartbreak on a lonely street bend
But I know the grass is meaner on the other side
Covered in pesticides
While the birds and the bees
All seem happy here with me
In my lonely house here on the edge of the sea
Well my garden gnome left home
A long time ago
To seek out his fortune in Spain
And while my yards not the same
Since he got on that plane,
I know he’ll be back again some day
And as I blow out my candles
On another year gone
My birthday wish has never changed
That everyone I know
Would stop hitting the road
And leaving me to reminisce alone
Cause I know the grass is meaner on the other side
Covered in pesticides
While the birds and the bees
All seem happy here with me
In my lonely house here on the edge of the sea
If I set foot outside my door
I could never handle the pain of
Wandering weary through an ever wilder world
And not knowing what lies in store for me
Cause I know the grass is meaner on the other side
Covered in pesticides
While the birds and the bees
All seem happy here with me
In my lonely house here on the edge of the sea
