Tiny Explosions
fire up the womantone
and drown the brown sound
wire up the dynamite
it tore me apart I had a lovely time
tiny explosions
hitch up the missiles and go for a ride
and don't forget to mop up the mess
it blasted me in two
I had a wonderful time
tiny explosions
Nuthin But Luv
you don't need nothin don't need nothin don't need nothin from me
you shoot out evil rays
you say you don't love don't love don't love me no more
but you told a different story yesterday
you took a trip you took a trip and didn't bother tellin me
that you were going away
you say you don't owe me don't owe me no explanation
but you got something to say
you got nothin in your mind but love
I had a banquet had a banquet of big bright red flowers
but they have all turned gray
I had a mansion and a car that had a private shower
but you have thrown it all away
I pound and pound and pound and pound upon your door and wonder
when are you comin out to play
you open up just enough for me to listen to you whisper
that I better back away
you got nothin in your mind but love
let's take a trip let's take a trip lets take a trip together
let's go and throw it all away
I know you love me when you shove me and you rub me
but the love we had just got in the way
Tiger Bomb
ooooh
she play the drums like a queen
got the prettiest hi hat cymbal I've ever seen
I could fix a broken bass drum beater
if I had the courage to go up to her and meet her
she gives off such a soothing vapor
a cooling effect she use to smooth her temper
wish I had all she ever needed to give her
but every time I see her I start to shiver
she wraps it up tight and she holds it in
keeps a funny joke tucked inside her grin
maybe it's behind her wild eyes
now I know why
I know that theres fuses inside tiger bomb
she is one target that's clearly outta sight tiger bomb
I know she's got something
her momma said that she was a big zero
she proved her momma wrong at the big rock show
she kicked out a beat that made her feet get busy
a cloud of tom toms that made us all get dizzy
now it's four in the morning and the show is done
now I got to be the strong one
don't you know it's gonna hurt me to
go in the opposite direction as you
I know that theres fuses inside tiger bomb
she is one target that's clearly outta sight tiger bomb
I can't x-ray the shell to read her mind tiger bomb
I had to drop my tiger bomb
Last Girl On Earth
you're so awful you're so ugly
so unattractive so hard to get along with
I'd like to hurt you I'd like to leave you
cut these chains and release me
it's been a long time I spent my whole life
trying to please you trying to make you smile
but you're fashionably unhappy
I'm lazy so I'll love you for awhile
like you're the last
last girl on earth
and when I left you yeah when I left you
I felt better I was happy
just for a minute just for a second
I thought I missed you I musta been losing my mind
I'm alone now I'm all alone now
things couldn't get much worse
I can't help wondering I can't help thinking
could she have been the last girl on earth
not if you're the last
last girl on earth
Jazz Guy
I wanna be a jazz guy
play the greatest american music
I wanna learn all the chords
solo till everyone in the room
is bored
I wanna be a jazz guy
play black music for white people
I wanna learn all the chords
solo till everyone in the room
is bored
beyond belief
I can't wait for the end of my solo
sweet sweet relief
Meanwhile Back In The City
I was standing quite alone in a crowded disco
when a man I did not know showed me the door and
told me I had to go
that kind of humiliation never happens on a farm that's why
city livin' does the pysche such harm
fire escapes don't work until there's a fire
you gotta sleep on the floor live in the mud there's no need to go
higher
once you taste a brick you won't want more
saving sanity is no trick when you're livin' outdoors
well it did not take me long to realize my mistake
when garbage trucks messed up my dreams I knew my dreams were fake
don't know how people gonna live like this
pigeons might enjoy it but I can't live in this mess and I said
fire escapes don't work until there's a fire
you gotta sleep on the floor live in the mud there's no need to go
higher
once you taste a brick you can't chew and talk
saving sanity is a trick when you're livin' in a room the size of a
shoebox
so finally all the wires and plastic got to me
ideas and realizations were passing right through me
I did not take a train a plane or bus with wings
man wasn't meant to fly besides walkin' does the same thing
it gets me outta here
fire escapes don't work until there's a fire
you gotta sleep on the floor live in the mud there's no need to go
higher
once you taste a brick you won't want more
saving sanity is a trick when you're livin' on someone else's floor
hi wassup how you doin' it's good to see ya what's your name again
I can't remember times up I gotta go
Jupiter
sent a probe through a massive storm
a million molecules make it warm and a storm is born
and the star had some sons and daughters
some with some without water
some cool and some run hotter
we blast an astronaut through the gasses
and do our best to save their little asses
come home don't rocket past us no
hello from inside a cloud
the particle smasher is maxing out and it's smelly and loud
jupiter jupiter massive passive ball
jupiter jupiter or or orbital
jupiter jupiter mass of gas and damnit
jupiter jupiter is pure pure pure pure planet
flying by in a perfect location
billions of earths worth of explanation
or just a space gas station I don't know
from deep below the surface
the tiny life forms are getting nervous
hope it doesn't hurt us walking on the slimy surface
we lost contact with home base
on the dark side of this place
please send more human race
to fill the empty space
Superstar
hey my superstar my flying shooting star
somewhere in the night my crashing meteorite
I got a rear view mirror
that I use to check my makeup
drivin' down the super highway
hopin' I don't wake up
she has that look like all those girls on my TV
I changed lanes in hope she would
in hopes she would see me
I'm jet powered in the fast lane
I choose words I use to woo her
I shout them out my open window
she doesn't care she doesn't seem to
she had that look that said she could be the one to save save me
and then she swerved she lost control
she flew her car into the sea
Death Star
hangin' in the stars suspended from the dark
life is long and heavy like a shadow on a spark and it will blow
massive killer orb floating around
looking for a spot to blast the good guys on the ground before they know
what hittem from above
death star something so incredible
death star something indestructible
death star massive and maniacal
death star teeny weeny vulnerable hole
somewhere deep inside shifty to the core
the tank is full and fueled by the
dark side of the force
that makes it go to and fro killing
black hearted ball rolls the devil's dice
destroy it one more time cause it’s so good they built it twice
but now no more
Blank Baby
you might say someone else said it
some worse some better than I
you might see someone taking pictures
they can't put them back and I'll tell you why
cause even when originals are dead
something still put that idea in your head
you might hear someone else singing
this very same song
I can't slap on nasty handcuffs
or scold like a lawyer screaming wrong wrong wrong
cause even when copyrights affixed
a genuine thief has got a bottomless bag of tricks
I was born a blank baby and the worlds here to fill my head
I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead
you might see a painting in a studio
might test the point to find it's wet
start scraping down as deep as you can go
until it's just as blank as it can get
even when the paint is dry
you can just erase it all by rolling back your eyes
you might hear someone else singing
this very same song
I can't slap on nasty handcuffs
or scold like a teacher screaming wrong wrong wrong
cause all of the originals are dead
I'm Mad
well I'm mad pissed off about this whole affair
I'm mad I can't believe that we don't care
I'm mad how can you say just do it
we completely and totally blew it
I'm mad that much is true
I'm mad I'm mad at me and I'm mad at you
I'm mad ow can't you see
our overwhelming stupidity
I'm so mad
I'm mad it's black and it's white
I'm mad this problem had me up all night
I'm mad you could say I'm perplexed
we're overworked and we're undersexed
I'm mad and we're outta time
I'm mad it's too late to take it back
I'm mad what more can I say
it didn't have to end this way
I'm so mad
Headin' Out
I been thinkin' bout heading out where I've never been
I been thinkin' bout finding out how to find the end
I been thinkin' bout freaking out if I can just find the time
and these ideas are leaking out so put a plug in my mind
I'm thinkin' bout sneaking out with nowhere to go
I'm considering dropping out stepping out of the flow
off all these radar scopes to a place far below
and I'm finally finding out how to lighten my load
I'm considering dropping out
I been thinkin' bout crawling out from underneath
I been thinkin' bout heading out turn my back and leave
I would hit an ocean or a coast and that would be
I would hit an ocean or a coast and that would be the end of me
