EVIL EYE
02:51

|
At first I thought it was a joke
my buds died, my car broke
but then I looked at my TV
watching it watching me
He put the evil eye on me . . .

FOLLOW ME BEHIND YOU
03:38
|
|||
|
Your feet aren't designed
to leave you behind
Better not speed:
let your head lead
Follow, follow me
I'll be right behind you

HOW TO RIDE THE SPIDER
03:40
|
|||
|
Can't abide a bona fide arachnocider
tied her up in her web to get astride her
yeah, he lied, instead of died inside her
pried his hide from his bride and goodbyed her
He got to ride, ride the spider . . .

She makes love in every which way
young and old, both night and day
another girl? ain't no sin
sis 'n' bro may as well jump in
Wo,wo, Bonobo Baby!

TALKING TO YOURSELF
03:28
|
|||
|
Without singing, just talk
if you're blind or if you seek
you can heal and you can wound
if you search or if you're found
You're just searching for yourself
you're just searching for yourself
You deafen the mother's son
when you chatter, honey, in a monotone
dizzy your harangue
when you're blogging, baby, instead of sing
You're just talking to yourself
just talking to yourself
On the mountain, quell the talk
take the air, honey, take a walk
quiet mountain, quiet stream
quiet you, quiet me
We're just singing to ourself
just singing to ourself

BOTTOM ON TOP
04:21
|
|||
|
Fey Titania had a great ass:
grey, had long ears, and he ate grass
well he hung was, bohunkey
belle went ding-dong for a donkey
'Cause his bottom's on top . . .

SEVEN DEADLY SINS
06:38
|
|||
|
Another sin I got on the shelf
admit I'm jealous of myself
call it lust, you can call it doubt
I entered her and couldn't find my way out
One of my seven deadly sins . . .

ASK AN ESKIMO
05:17
|
|||
|
Why not ride the silver bird
and leave my home of snow
lots of money, just to take
a corpse to Chicago

Music, art, poetry spoken here!
As E Dickinson says:
Nature is what we know
but have no art to say
so impotent our wisdom is
to her simplicity
