More Bad Times
1, 2, 3, 4
You never had rabies
You never gained weight
You never drank poison
You watched what you ate
You never came home with a terrible scar
You never so much as put a scratch on my car
You never got measles
You never got gout
You never got dizzy
And you never fell out
You never suggested we all play charades
You never picked up any live hand granades
You twisted your ankle
I carried you
You got a divorce
So I married you
You fell off a cliff
So I buried you
I wish there were more bad times to see you through
I wish there were more bad times
Wish there were more bad times (x4)
I wish there were more
You never lost contact
You never leaked oil
You never drank cleanser
And you never ate foil
You never got hurt by sticks and stones
You never choked on any big chicken bones
You never got mauled by a mad baboon
You never lost all the air in your balloon
You never got poked in the eye with a spork
You never got sick from all that leftover pork
You twisted your ankle
I carried you
You got a divorce
So I married you
You fell off a cliff
So I buried you
I wish there were more bad times to see you through
I wish there were more bad times
So many things did go wrong
But the list is not long enough
Not enough bad things to fill up a song
Wish there were more bad times (x4)
I'd rather gather your bones
Than mop up this mess
If I scrub us all spotless
I'll wreck our success
I was holding your hand
When it fell on the floor
When you left you broke the knob on the door
I wish there was more

Truckstop Butterfly
truckstop butterfly
covered in gasoline
truckstop butterfly
kiss you till your clean
me and a man with a mohawk on his head
found a dirty butterfly half dead
rainbow of shiny oil slick and stuck on wing
helpless in a puddle muddy thing
seven eleven cherry soda and a pie
30 ton steen grey could in the
sky is dark and drippy though we stop and wonder why
youre runnin late but what a great alibi
far out east in deserts theres a vein of inky gold
here out west you wear it like a coat
me and the man with the mohawk watch you go
follow sun and leave the melting snow
and how i miss you truckstop butterfly
fly so i cant see you truckstop butterfly
i hope you made it and you didnt die
still i do miss you truckstop butterfly
Ghosts Are Everywhere
ghosts are everywhere
inside big old bass tones and deep in the belly of a fish
i cant help noticing their pearly teeth are flickerin
ghosts are everywhere
some are superstars with preformed plastic paste on hair
driving hiding behind sunglasses and just cant help out but stare
and i hear them singing:
na na na na na ghosts are everywhere
over there under there
ghosts are certainly everywhere
swallowing whole trees and startling creatures of the sea
ran into one under my covers and it gave me quite a scare
ghosts are everywhere
flying throught the air with the greatest of ease and landing here and
there
never ever ever missing a beat as they pound with some bones
on a foam chair
and i hear them singing
there in the drain there in the sink
there in between all the thoughts that you think
there under my shoe and in garbage sacks
in the middle of a mountain in space where its black
and there everywhere
wandering free and brushing by me
late at night at the store 24
pickin up a box customized cookies
and disappearing throught the door
and i hear them sing
everywhere over there under there
everywhere over there underwear
ghosts are everywhere
Loose Balloon
loose balloon
how high can you fly
youre a loose balloon
before you pop and you die
loose balloon you made that little kid cry
when you took off the sun
just this morning you were flat and deflated
no one knew if you were loved or hated
just another shriveled up loser in a bag
sold to a kid who cried to get ya
held like a kitten he was happy to pet ya
till the kid got a sucker and he opened his hand
free so free now the skies the limit
twenty miles up and its just the beginning
spacemen planets and lunar surface here i come
here i come
people squint to look up
just to see you fly away
now youre absolutely free so dont stop
till you pop
Flame Is Love
i hate to sing another song about love
the flame is something that you should be aware of
im probably not the first one to claim
love is a dangerous flame
nobody knows who lights the fire
put on a log and make it go higher
blow out the pilot light on the stove
because the flma is love and id
get some water from the sink
quickly now take a drink
put out the fire from inside
before it spread and burns like lies
and she had a scar in the shape of a heart
id have to eat an aspirin pie
to cure the pain thats in my eye
ive seen the flame lick and ruck lick and run
you know the flame is love and
people burn and leave their shoes
people usually burn in twos
loves a fire thats quiet and slow
the flame is love im a fire hose and i
hated to sing that song about love
the flame was something that you should be aware of
im probably not the last one to claim
love is a dangerous flame so ill
So Lo So Hi
Bird, you made me walk on dirt
My fin got all hurt
But I didn’t care because I had it in for you
You met me in the mud
We got as close as we could
And that is why I swim and swim down the drain
If I could walk and breathe air
I’d be too scared
I’m back in my pond
And now I feel so…
I’m so low and so high
I swim low and wonder why
Just a fish that wishes he could fly
I’m so low I’m high
I’m high
I’m high
Fish, you made me do the twist
But I almost drowned
The stereo you gave me only made a gurgle sound
When we talk, I blow bubbles
We meet up in puddles
You pour me pond water and I sip it like champagne
I’m pulling out weeds
From my claws and round my feet
I’m back in my tree
And now I feel so…
I’m so low and so high
I fly low and wonder why
Just a bird who wants to learn to swim and dive
I’m so low I’m high
I’m high
I’m high
So low I’m high
So low I’m high
So low I’m high
A fish that can fly
A bird that can dive
I’m so low I’m high
I’m so low, so low that I am high
Poor Turtle
stole and sold for life of leisure
green beetle bass done run clean out of luck
kick it live for the kids in denver
now hes gone from the big yellow rental truck
no chance for electrification
so he could cry his little single coil pickups out
broadcast across this nation
search and destroy and then wtist and shout with my
poor turtle ready to rock and to roll
poor turtle got stole
poor turtle smiling in the summer sun
i know youre the one
dropped hard from the trunk of a pimpin car
skiddin on the cold colorado ice
i stuck on a super secret
ladybug style homing device
i follow the beepin signal
to a shack with a basement room
in and out through a broken window
from a strum to a sonic boom hes my
poor turtle ready to rock and to roll
poor turtle got stole
poor turtle crying on the pawnshow wall
ten dollars is all thats all
i miss my poor poor turtle
i miss my poor poor turtle turtle so much
and his darkness wont turn to day
hes shut tight in his hard shell case
i still dont know if he was guitar or bass
but we made music together
we made music together oh yeah
Rot In The Sun
im gonna rot in the sun
this is a beatiful life just cause it catches the light
gonna let it all slide like butter on a warm knife

i take my mouth of your foot give up and i feel good
i give up and i feel good im gonna rot in the sun
in the sun in the sun

dependable star pumps like a heart
you out the core ignore the sweetest part
cause its here to impress with perfect success

no protection from the glare and i dont care i don care
im gonna rot in the sun
its round and smooth a controllable cruise
get that match away from that fuse
cause it might explode and goodness knows i dont want to rock and tip
and sink the boat
so everbody freeze noboy sneeze
im stuck and stung by the summertime bees and we will
