Street of Broken Clocks
01:17
|
|||
|
On the street of broken clocks
No one knows what time it is
But how did people tell time before clocks existed
They told the time naturally
Here we go:
Sundials, hourglasses, looking at the sun
I'm sure there's many ways
But they know none
The libraries are broken too
Oh, they can't have any fun

Sister

I saw your sister at the store
Haven't seen her in a year
She's taller than I remember
And doesn't wear glasses anymore
What was her name?
What was her name?
What was her name?
What was her name?
I saw a picture of her
In front of your house
I saw a dream of her in the future

Vaseline
01:34
|
|||
|
I got it in my cabinet
I want it on my hand
Lot of playing around
Isolated showers
White walls bear witness
A body bare to this
Past the daytime
Lies the ceiling spiders
They've got long legs
And stay very still
They better leave
For what I gotta do
Vaseline, vaseline
Clean, clean vaseline
Vaseline, vaseline
Clear, clear vaseline

The fire extinguisher's missing
But it's no concern because nothing's on fire
I just wanna play with it
When we've moved out of this home
And the fire extinguisher's still gone
Someone would find it
Underneath the floorboards
I wanna know who took it
Away from me
And I wanna know why
Why they did it

Ballad

Is there anybody thinking of you?
I'm always thinking 'bout someone
You always end up in my songs
You always end up in my screenplays
Is there anybody thinking of me?
I'm always thinking 'bout someone
I always end up in my songs
I always end up in my screenplays
You always end up in my songs
You always end up in my screenplays

Atmosphere Speaking
02:21
|
|||
|
Was it over
When the atmosphere
Began to talk to you
Was it weird?
And the morning
Was overcome
By a strange fog
And then the night was shattered
By dreams of love
And you know
And we know
That the movie theater's closed
And the record stores are far away
And the fields have washed away
And you know
And we know

I saw electric Lenin on the subway
He stood with newspapers in his hands
I saw next to him electric Che Guevara
Took a cigar out of a jacket pocket
I saw acoustic Abbie on the runway
Rummaging through the things he stole
I saw acoustic Marx on the freeway
He walked along silently
I saw electric Helen Keller on the train
She spoke to me about Soviet grain
I saw electric Huey on the subway
Telling me about feeding the children
I saw a statue of Marx in a movie
That bulbous head looked kinda funny
It's a surrealist kind of dream
To walk the subway beam

There's a pizza shop epidemic
In Western Massachusetts
Little pizza shops everywhere I go
And I guess it'll take away from
The pizza corporations
The petty-bourgeois succeeded over
The bourgeois pizza!
One day the school's band kids got wasted
And tried to solve the pizza epidemic
But they got nowhere
No solutions!

Who put acid in the jelly beans?
Who put acid in the coffee cups?
Who burnt down the old jimmy meadow?
The vacuum cleaner's absurdist widow
Let's go on vacation!
Let's go on vacation!
You can bring your medication!
Let's go on vacation!
I know who loves you more than me
Yourself, can't you see?
Mantelplace drowning in summertime
April flowers and sunshine showers

Fun Time
01:30
|
|||
|
If you wanna come with me
You'll have to see what I see
Lighter and gun in my hand
Your love underneath my fingertips
It'll be a fun time
It'll be a fun time
It'll be a fun time
It'll be a fun time

Propaganda
02:08
|
|||
|
You feel like propaganda
For a new art movement
I saw your exhibit last year
You feel like a monument
To an old tragedy
Sitting plain and unhappy
You wanna leave this place
But you can't escape your job
It'll always bring you down
You feel like propaganda
For a new art movement
I saw your exhibit last year
You feel like propaganda
To an old tragedy
I saw your exhibit unhappy

Epistaxis

This guy melted
Made a big mistake
Fell into nature's death trap
Nature killed him
Real bleeder
Real killer

Portrait of the Star
02:45
|
|||
|
You've got the portrait of the star
He is staring back at you
He has frozen time so you can stare back too
I wanna know
I wanna know
How he stays so young and stays so still
Got him trapped inside a painting
The portrait of the star
Whatever happened to him?
Did he fade out or did he die?
Just the fame and stardom got to him
And he worked himself to death

Freeflowing Taboos
01:22
|
|||
|
Freeflowing taboos
Come into your room
It's not your fault
And it is not my fault
Freeflowing taboos
Alcohol and drugs are no longer taboos
There are still a lot of taboos
You know them, you know them
Well I know them too

Death in Autumn
02:05
|
|||
|
This quiet town
Something's wrong
A misstep taken
A death in autumn
I remember that day
There was nothing to say
And as I walked down that street
With snow piles at my feet
There was nothing to say
And I wept all day
|

Youth
02:45
|
|||
|
I know it's youth that you want
When the summer seems so hot
I hope that there
Is still youth in the air

I am a time traveler
We met in the future
And we will meet again
In the past but not close to the present
I wanna see you
But there is no time
If I could go back to the present
I wouldn't say anything
Wouldn't say anything
Because there'd be nothing to say
I would just wait for you
All day
