i step heavenly, but i know
that no one is following
and i've flown a thousand planes
and they're all the same
you swim through the sky
you know where to aim
hey saturn v, fly to the end
hey nevermind, i got no friends
step heavily as we go
we're gonna get a show
and i've flown a thousand planes
and they're all the same
hey saturn v, fly to the end
hey never mind, i got no friends
it's a meteor shower
the hand that crushed the tyrant's head
became a tyrant in his stead
and i've had a thousand names
and thousands of places that i've flown us to
it's a meteor shower
it's our final hour

Look inside my danger box, I guarantee you'll find it out of sight---
My dresser drawer is cut symetrically in half and painted white---
Take up the magnifier, climb the ladder to an unsafe height---
There's one word on the placard, hammer in a nail now if you like---
Fun and games inside a sack, you swore to me you'd get me back,
Late at night, we're on the run, I'm scared to death and having fun,
The lift has gone up in a blaze, the red light has us all amazed,
Four Heads all agree with me, the Four Heads all agree with me,
There's seven levels, don't you see, the Four Faces all agree with me you see.

you'll be spending some time alone
you'll be spending some time alone
interzone - find an inner home with
food that falls from trees that grow on stones
the code is easy to break with proper patience
the beginning and the end was written down by all the ancients
but mr. alphabet has beat 'em to it
the blind transcribe the life that lives all through it
throw your body right over the rail
you'll decay in the wind, your skin will be a sail
and no we will never meet again
once again, this is anonymous
you know, it makes a lot of sense -
the fact that you've been on the fence
in fact, it makes no difference
complete the workbook every day
you cast a line into the sea
you'll catch a giant squid before you're catchin' me
but hey, your grandpa knew where i would be
his teacher taught him how to read on my biography
but a million things are off just by a letter
a million things are definitely off
open up the fridge and tell me what you got
you lie a lot, on second thought
just tell me what your dinner cost
don't worry about the weight you lost
you have to let your brain defrost
you have to learn what
everybody in the world but you already knows:
a million things are off

We're at 5 by 5, we'll watch 11 Alive, We'll read in Red (red) Blue and Pickle Colour too!
We're at 5 by 5, we'll watch 11 Alive, We'll read in Red (red) Blue and Pickle Colour too!
Forget what was said and forget watcha heard,
I got plenty of feathers if you want to be a bird,
So take a look at my beak and get a load of my claws
And my nest, you'd do best to keep your body off my laws.
I'm spilling that cannister and huffing the fumes,
Sliding down that bannister and making up tunes,
I'll put the pony in the elevator to make you feel better,
She asked me "What was my calling?" I hope the answer won't upset her...
We're at 5 by 5 etc.
Put the stick in the ground now to watch the ants dance,
Better hike up your shorts cuz I see London and France,
I see Creeps on Long Island and Preeps in Californee,
Solo no si vedono e due liucorni.
But I've been through a horse on a desert unnamed,
Over lines of fault and through valleys of blame,
With the heavens below and the oceans up above,
Past the mansions of hate to the split levels of love.
Rockit and Schockit and we're never gonna pocket...[over and over again]
Like Tatooine, I got two suns, but nary a daughter,
I like to wallow in joy and then I dally in slaughter,
I'll be the berg that sunk your ocean liner to your dismay,
"I believe that you may get your headlines, Mr. Ismay."
Cuz I'm sending your shit to the floor of the Atlantic,
While you're rushing around, running scared and in a panic,
And I'll bet, when its set, that you'll never be the same,
You won't regret or forget the sound of my name
We're at 5 by 5 etc.
Rockit and Schockit and we're never gonna pocket...

Sunshine Sammy

A Jumping Stone is thrown in a pond,
The rippled waves are carried beyond,
A brand new friend as I step in the door,
I know my life won't be like before.
Is Petie gonna be there to colour me greeen?
I could hide behind the bushes so I won't be seen,
So I'll jump out, flex and growl the right time,
Then go hide in the woods and plan my next crime.
Then he hit me on the head, hit me on the head, hit me on the head because I told him to.
He hit me on the head, hit me on the head, hit me on the head because I told him to.
By the lipstick slide near the robin tree,
Was it Sunshine Sammy, Joe Cobb and me?
I saw the look of shock on his face,
Left me standing there in that place,
When they saw the thing that he done,
I said that it was only for fun
The projector's all set, we told them not to scream,
It happens everytime the wolf appears on the screen,
The girls are on the loose, out to settle the score,
With Plaster, Pardon, English and Moore
You know he hit me on the head, hit me on the head, hit me on the head because I told him to.
You know he hit me on the head, hit me on the head, hit me on the head because I told him to,
By the lipstick slide, near the robin tree,
Was it Sunshine Sammy, Joe Cobb and me?

odessa, send me north or west
i was real impressed
i stand in the intersections every day
with a rose to give away
my body ought to be paved
got hockey dome for just the best
where i made my nest
hey now in your home
i put those microphones
you're singin' me to sleep
just singin' me to sleep
i got a metered spot that never quits
where all the k cars and the pintos sit
and maybe next week i'll have a rough mix
i think i picked up a couple tricks
this is a warm day for a vinyl seat
but i can outlast any piece of meat
this is a dodge 78 custom street
this is a rolling secret hit machine
what's the line?
odessa, send me north or west
i was real impressed
got parked across the street by dark
you don't know where we are
what else?

Free Arthur Love and love Larry Lee [Free all the love and love Merrily]
Larry Lee is Free, y'see, y'see, y'see
Hear Darlene Love and Love Sara Lee (Go4, not the cake)
Minjoo Larry Lee is free, y'see, y'see, y'see
There's no need to frown
He's headed out of town
I highly doubt either group will even be missed
I never dreamed your old teacher would play music like this
Free all the love and Love Merrily
Larry Lee is Free, y'see, y'see, y'see
Fear all the Love and Free Merrill Lee
Minjoo Larry Lee is free, y'see, y'see
"Larry Lee"'s a clumsy metaphor for Low-rent bands who go on tour
Here's how they plumb in Bloomington, I-N
They let the water drip down, down into a bucket
(They) take the water from the bucket and pour it into the toilet (2x)
I'm coverin' up myself in your dirty clothes
Hunkered down with the squatters, I can barely doze
We can eat a breakfast gruel from your great big pot
Drive for hundreds of miles and barely hold a thought for days; I'm dazed.
Fear all the love and Love Merrily
Larry Lee is Free, y'see, y'see, y'see
You got Robert E. Love to Jen Jason Lee
Minjoo Larry Lee is free, y'see, y'see
There's really no need to frown, the M-er F-er's headed out of town
We're casting our winds to the fates
So here's how we bunk in Oberlin, O-H
You got a mattress on the floor, a mattress for your spread
A mattress for your pillow, yeah, a mattress for your head (2x)
I'm runnin' from the floods in Kalamazoo, M-I
Wake up freezing cold and sneezing wondering "Who am I?"
Boystown Burritos are as big as my head
I'm gaping up at the tall buildings wondering if I'll be dead if I stay another day
Free all the Love and Love Merrily
Larry Lee is free, y'see, y'see, y'see
Free Arthur Love and Love Larry Lee
Minjoo Larry Lee is Free, y'see, y'see
There's no need to frown, He's headed out of town
Here's how we recycle
Free all the Love and love Merrily
Larry Lee is free, y'see, y'see, y'see
"Larry Lee"'s a metaphor for loser bands who go on tour
Here's how we bring it to the end.

Little Loop

I've got a funny feeling about you
I have no cause or reason to doubt you
My arms are long and long and hanging low
My mouth is wide but my brain is talking slow
I put my one leg in and one leg out
Turn yourself back and shake it all about
Make a little loop and then you make another
Fold it 'round the back and then you tie it to the other (3x)
I've got a funny feeling about you
I feel the cold spirits around you
And they go on and on around your brain
Round and round like the water down the drain
And so you try and try to keep it all inside
Shades and hat cover all the times you cried
Make a little loop and then you make another
Fold it 'round the back and then you tie it to your (brother? mother?)(3x)

Sun Shines on the Loyal

i'll teach you how to look for scupltures
hidden in the sky
the girls in all the bungalows
and me see eye to eye
but every day they say the statue's
never gonna cry
they say the statue's never gonna cry
vino esplendito man
they made a sacred relic of me
but i'm still alive
think about the crash if you still
want a piece of pie
they made the place angelic
white shirts and all white ties
the x-rays made their way on through
from here to your insides
vino esplendito man
what friends are these?
we can't talk about celine?
we can't share the gasoline
well i can't fit into these jeans
it's all a dream
it's all exactly as it seems
we dump the facts in the ravine
and balance stacks of batteries
to power what we don't believe
gimme gimme your hands
gimme gimme your feet
sieze the chief, tell him nothing's underneath
he's a good man and he'll understand
when we decide to throw him off the ledge,
he'll never land
he'll start a mariachi band
at 9.8 per second and
you'll hear them once and not again
you heard that once and now again
that's why i come down here, after all
chuck a million dudes into the gulf
that's why i come down here after all
way before the legends began
drinking vino esplendito man
jimmy jack the car up, change the oil
the royal family never dies, sun shines on the loyal
i don't have a clue about those sculptures in the sky
and i don't get why no one says the statues gonna cry

Ah!
I'm layin' on the couch
I can't see a thing
I wancha' to pick up my arms and I want you to...
Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle
Don't stop until I tell you to (2x)
We can go outside and have some tea
And look up at the stars and maybe I might
Remember what you just said, what you said,
I'm sorry but the Earth is coming off its head
You know
You aint never gonna pick up on my stares
You aint never gonna make this face
You got a great crawlspace and lofty downstairs so could you...
Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle the middle of my arm?
Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle and don't stop until I tell you to
You got to pick up my arm, go around in a circle, circle, circle, circle with you finger tips
We can go outside and wonder where everyone went
Your pitiful mooching might be my time well spent
Open your eyes, its not too late
You'll recognize some people you hate
Thrown through the plate-glass window
Its getting late, don't you know
Its high time us cowardly long-hairs hit the road
Speak in silent code, leave this strange abode
Put this episode far behind us now
Time will not allow, time to wipe my brow
Time to leave the crowd and figure out who'll drive
Who did not imbibe? Can your car fit five?
Get us home alive before my folks get home
Wipe away the foam, please lend me your comb
I could write a poem all about our night
Running from the fight, running out of sight
Before the morning light shows them where we were
It'll seem like something stupid when you wake up
But before you go, before the party breaks up
Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle, Tickle
Don't stop until I tell you to (2x) BUDDY
