When the deipnosophist comes to dinner
You will shake his hand
And buy the clothes off him
And they will leave naked into the night
The deipnosophist talks at dinner
About revolutionary astrophysics
And what do you say
About what you don't know at all
And you will drink all night your wine
Your wine

Duets at Sunset
02:35
|
|||
Someone said you were dead
So I walked 40 years
To your grave, let out tears
You were there, you were there
I walked alone
Like a lonely broken bone
You were reading to me
Through the guitar strings
You left it out
We had it all planned out
We would record duets in the
Sunset kingdom
You were not everyone
At the time, now you are

Prom King
01:36
|
|||
Prom king coming around the corner
He has come to make you his honor
Watch your step for the prom king
He has a voice to sing
And he's not afraid to go deep
Or high as a mountain that's steep
Prom king

Wheelbarrow Wrist Sleeps
02:35
|
|||
Wheelbarrow Wrist sleeps through the day
He's not seeing anybody today
He's not living nor is he dead
None the matter, he just stays in bed
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Wheelbarrow Wrist sleeps through the night
He just doesn't wanna put up a fight
The town's always wondering where he is
Looking up to see which chimney smoke is his
Oh no, no way, no way
Wheelbarrow Wrist sleeps through the world
Nobody wakes him to do his twirl
They say it's been several weeks
He never quite found what he seeks

Time for Glass Cabinets
02:56
|
|||
Time for glass cabinets and baked Alaska
Time to film an avant-garde film
Time for no ordinary fire
I'm running out of water
I guess that nothing really lasts
I guess that nothing really matters
Time for glass cabinets in tatters
Time lasts until the notebooks shatter
Time for distortion pedal sunrise
Time for broken hairlines
Time for half-destroyed televisions
I'm seeing reverb visions
I look at you like a neon pedestal
No one sees the desperate paranoid luncheon
I think there's an old 4-track in the shed
I say we make the next great album

Love Becomes Nival
01:27
|
|||
Love becomes nival
At the end of November
Rain slowed down and the
Snow came flying chaos
I invite you to be nival
I invite everyone to be nival
Never shovel you away
Never stomp you away

Who holds the amorphous amour fist
It's older than your father
Be careful with it there
It's more valuable than silver
Archives of bellicose belladonna
Washed up on the shore
You can see them if you want to
They're right there by the door
Considered dangerous on some degree
Also medicinal
When I look into your house's eyes
I feel so pitiful
|
||||
8. |
||||
I'm in pain and I need a hug
Don't wanna feed on your new drug
I need arms around me
Only then can I see
I wanna see that someone loves me
I don't know where to go from here
Not interested in drinking your beer

Boring Burning
02:30
|
|||
Did you see a thousand burning buildings in your room?
No I saw many more
So go to your palace, it's boring around here
I'll go towards the shore
You were sitting vague
No I was sitting dead
Well, dead was all you knew
I am a throbbing stew
Did you see a thousand burning buildings in your room?
Yeah I saw many less
So go to your palace, it's boring around here
I'll go towards the buildings in the distance
One day this planet's to die
And leave nothing behind
The universe will spill new secrets
Untold majestic explosions
Night sky was lethal letdown
No one around and around and around...

Early Astronomy
02:43
|
|||
We're waiting for Thermidor
Four months after Germinal
Andromeda for Angelina
Cassiopeia for Cassius
But who owns the constellations
Give them my congratulations
It's a deed to see the stars
The sixteenth century isn't so far

Crime and Consequences
01:23
|

Full of crime and consequences
Yeah I'm full of it all, I don't know when it ended

Another World
01:48
|
|||
I was in the field, sitting with your meal
It was all a dream
I woke up in bed, with thoughts of you in my head
Everything as it seems
Would you take a trip to another world
If indeed there was another world
And in theory there is
And in theory there isn't
And also it was a present
From me to you
Take an interuniversal trip with me
It won't feel like it's happening naturally
|

Elsewhere
01:42
|
|||
I don't know where you've gone
Probably somewhere far
I don't know where you are
I wish you good luck with your travels
Have you seen any foreign films over there
Have you finally let the barber cut your hair
How far have you gone away
Is it hard to find you at this date
|

An Electric Organism
03:21
|
|||
In the future
There's a mutilated carcass
Bearing your strange name
In the present
I've seen everything there is to gain
They don't like me 'cause I'm not the same
I don't like them 'cause they're all the same
I know there's somewhere
That's right for me
But it won't be right for you
And in the house
Of tomorrow's mouse
An electric organism flew to the sky
I heard music come from the blank walls
Inside, a fortress blooming outward
Blue sky crumble, red ice cream mumble
An angry drummer and a book of plunders

Football Man
01:34
|
|||
Football man is coming down
Football man is all around
He'll play football the rest of his life
All while telling his petty lies
I should clarify:
I'm talking 'bout American football
Always stalking around playing the bully
He can be funny but only rarely
I've never seen him kick a football
I've only seen him in class
Wearing a jersey with the school colors
He knows how to start a fire
Football man

It was somewhere you would never search
And you'd never find it in a church
You never show me your work
I'd like to see it like a birth
A death palace in the minefield
Covered by a neon shield
You were never old enough
'Cause getting by was just too rough
It was morning
And you were far away
Building crop circles in the dark

Obscuro Pinball
02:12
|
|||
In the bar of hazy mazes
I was seeking believable changes
I'll set the bar real low
Or else we'll want to go
Obscuro pinball machine
The edges aren't so clean
Obscuro pinball machine
Oddities in our dreams
Ball after ball on the conveyor
Trying our best at the silver fair
Light show neon hit us down
We won't go driving all over town
Because obscuro pinball machine
You crept into our dreams
Obscuro pinball machine
No one else has seen
Obscuro pinball machine
Crawling through our dreams
Obscuro pinball machine
Winning without a team
Obscuro pinball machine
Pinball isn't in our genes
Obscuro pinball machine

There's a strange stretch of road
No one dares ride upon it
It gives sentience and radio signals
And other things I don't know what
I don't know who owns it
From where it comes no one knows
Does anybody own it?
The stars rise up on their toes

Sitting in Detention
01:47
|
|||
She was coronated at the gas station
And you weren't there to see it happen
Stressful hours bring beautiful flowers
Don't you know that?
I made 95 dollars and 0 cents
This whole thing makes zero sense
I was sent from another dimension
Just to find you sitting in detention
I was falling asleep at the steering wheel
'Cause I didn't eat a good meal
She was coronated at the gas station
You weren't there to see it happen

History is Too Far Away
01:35
|

Salute yourself and your phalanx
And you will find some forty-foot length
Down and out then wasn't only
A parked car streetwide was too lonely
You will spin it all around
And you will tangle wires for fun
And you will make history with every move you do

Oil Bathrobe
03:16
|
|||
I saw my reflection in the blood of a dead man
I said "Who goes into neon?"
Nostalgia comes like crashing steel
The filthy fire shoots me in the leg
A few dead men will be buried
A motor flew across the sky
Hits the oil bathrobe floating
I saw the star of a moon afar
Looks like a crying car
I saw the oil bathrobe call my name
Saying "Everything just looks the same"
I fell through the floor
His words hit me to the core
|

Gonna crawl into your spaceship
Nothing like a relationship
Better ease your mind
'Cause we're leaving it all behind
Your body makes me feel
Like a UFO
Sitting in the road
I saw you in the street
With a cyclops at your feet
You never knew where to go
Someone somewhere someday
Might take you away
But don't worry now
We must discover how
