01: March into the Sea
If food needed pleasing
You'd suck all the seasoning off!
Suck it off!
Well treat me like the disease
Like the rats and the fleas, a-ha-ha!
Bang your head like a gong 'cuz it's filled with all wrong!
A-ha-ha, klang, klang, klang!
If you think you know enough to know you know we've had enough
And if you think you don't you probably will
Our tails wagged and then fell off,
But we just turned back marched into the sea
Well treat me like the sea
Oh so salty and mean,
Ah-ha-hah-ha!
Well treat me like the disease
Like the rats and the fleas,
Ah-ha-ha!
I'll be beating my heart's record for speeding
I'll be beating the record for hearts skipping in the dark
Our tails wagged and then fell off
But we just turned back marched into the sea
Well we just turned round marched into the sea
Take all that you need like
My sign says for free, till it's gone!
Till it's gone!
Well discard whom you please like the leaves off a tree,
Ah-ha-ha!
Let's shake hands if you want but soon both hands are gone,
Ha-ha-ha!
Well treat me like the sea oh so salty and mean
Oh treat me like the sea oh so salty and mean
Well treat me like disease like the rats and the fleas
Bang your head like a gong 'cuz you call it all wrong,
Move your tongue
Klang! Klank!
Klang! Klang!
Klang! Klang!
Cut me down like a trees
Like the lumber or weeds,
Drag me out of the sea
And then teach me to breathe
Give me forced health
Till I wish death on myself
Give me forced health
Till I wish death on myself
Ah! Ha! Ha!
Well we all stumbled round tangled up in the cords
From our phones, V.C.R. and our worldly woes
Ah! Ha! Ha!
March on!
March on!
March on!
March on!
Well march on!
02: Dashboard
Well it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know
Oh the dashboard melted
But we still had the radio
Oh it should've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know
Well you told me 'bout nowhere
Well it sounds like some place I'd like to go
Oh it could've been, should've been
Worse then you would ever know
Well the windshield was broken
But I love the fresh air you know
Well it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know
Oh we talked about nothing
Which was was more than I wanted to know
Now here we go
Oh it would've been, could've been
Worse than it had even gone
Well the car was on blocks
But I was already where I want
Why should we ever even
Ever really get to know
Oh if the world don't like us
It'll shake us just like we were a cold
Now here we go
Well we schemed and we schemed
But would always blow it
We've yet to crash
But we still might as well tow it
Standin' at a light switch
To each east and west horizon
Ever dawn one yells surprise
And in the evening one's consoling, sayin'
See it wasn't quite as bad as
Well it would've been, could've been
Worse then you would ever know
I was patiently erasing and recording the wrong episodes
After you had proved my point wrong
It wasn't like I'd let it go
I just wanted to catch
The last laugh of this show
Yeah it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know
Oh the dashboard melted
But we still had the radio
Hardwired to conceive
So much we had to stow it
Even needs have needs
Tiny giants made out of tinier giants
Don't wear eyelids
So I don't miss
The last laugh of the show
Well it could've been, should've been
Worse than you would ever know
Well you told me 'bout nowhere
Well it sounds like some place I'd like to go
Now here we go
Well we schemed and we schemed
But would always blow it
We've yet to crash
But we still might as well tow it
Standin' at a light switch
To each east and west horizon
Ever dawn one yells surprise
And in the evening one's consoling, sayin'
See it wasn't quite as bad as
Well it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know
03: Fire It Up
Etceteranough
Etceteranough
Etceteranough
Etceteranough
Etceteranough
Etceteranough
Etceteranough
Fire it up
Fire it up
When we finally turn it over
Make a beeline towards the border
Have a drink
You've had enough
Fire it up
Fire it up
If you need some conversation
Bring a magazine to read around
Our broke-down transportation
Fire it up
Etceteranough
Etceteranough
Etceteranough
Fire it up
Fire it up
When we find the perfect water
We'll hang out on the shore
Just long enough to leave our clothes there
Fine enough
Fine enough
Oh we ate all of the oranges
Off the navels of our lovers
Grabbed a book and read the cover
It honestly was beautifully done
We'd tried to hide the daylight from the sun
Even if we had been sure enough
It's true we really didn't know
Even if we knew which way to head
But still we probably wouldn't go
Fire it up
Fire it up
we push off we are rolling borders
Crashing down the mirrored stairways
Two of life's best mine canaries
Fire it up
Fire it up
When we fix the carburetor
Then we'll push off once again
In an hour or so later
It honestly was beautifully bold
Like trying to save an ice cube from the cold
Even if we had been sure enough
It's true we really didn't know
Even if we knew which way to head
But still we probably wouldn't go
Well we always
Well we always
Had it all
Had it all
Well we always
Well we always
Had it all
Had it all
Well we always
Well we always
Had it all
04: Florida
Although we'd often wondered,
It was no thing of wonder
The shit that flew from our minds
While wearing stains of fresh fruit
And riding on shoes of horse glue
On this ridiculous climb
With great tunnel vision
We'd build ourselves a mission,
To ride on bullets inside
Oh what a vain description
Of what we had been missing,
So why would anyone try?
It was always worth it
That's that part I seem to hide,
And the busy ant empire
Put up the closing sign
I wasn't always cargo
I was once kind of my own,
I guess I'll pack up my mind
Well it took so much effort
Not to make an effort
Oh what a flawless design
It was always worth it
That's the part I seem to hide,
And the busy ant empire
Put up the closing sign
Even as I had left Florida
It was always worth it
That's the part I seem to hide,
And the busy ant empire
Had all deserted hive
It was always worth it
That's the part I seem to hide
Even as I had left Florida,
Far enough, far enough
Wasn't far enough
Couldn't quite seem to escape myself
Far enough, far enough,
Far from Florida
We were all drowsing in cruise control
Far enough, far enough
Wasn't far enough
I stood on my heart's porch thinking,
"Oh my god I probably have to carry this whole load"
I couldn't remember if I tried
I couldn't remember if I took my brain out
Through it so directly at the goal
I couldn't remember if I tried
I could have me mind erased and still not know
Exactly what I don't already know
Even as I had left Florida
05: Parting of the Sensory
There's no work in walking and it fueled the talk
I would grab my shoes and then away I'd walk
Through all the stubborn beauty I start at the dawn
Until the sun had fully stopped
Never walking away from
Just a way to pull apart
Dehydrate back into minerals
A lifelong walk to the same exact spot
Carbon's anniversary
The parting of the sensory
It's old, old news to read
The parting of the sensory
Who the hell made you the boss
We placed our chips in all the right spots
But still lost
Any shithead who had ever walked
Could take this ship and do a much finer job
This fit like clothes made out of wasps
Oh fuck it, I guess I lost
The parting of the sensory
Carbon's anniversary
Just part of the game if you please
Carbon's anniversary
Who the hell made you the boss
If you say what to do I know what not to stop
If you were the ship then who would ever get on
The weather changed and for the worse
It came down on us like it had been rehearsed
Not like you'd hoped but change will surely come
And be awful for most and really good for some
I took a trip to the exact same spot
We pulled the trigger, but we forgot to cock
And every single shot
Oh fuck it, I guess we lost
Someday you will die and
Somehow something’s going to steal your carbon
Someday you will die and
Somehow something’s going to steal your carbon
Well someday you will die somehow and
Something’s going to steal your carbon
Someday you will die and
Someone’s or something’s will steal your carbon
Someday something will die and
Somehow you'll figure out how
Often you will die somehow and
Something going to steal your
Probably nothing will die and
You will probably just steal his carbon
Someday you will die somehow and
Something’s going to steal your carbon
Hey, hey, hey
Someday somehow or something will die and
You will steal his carbon
Somehow you will die and you will figure out how
Often you will die somehow and
Something's going to steal your carbon
Someday you will die somehow and
Someone’s going to steal your carbon
Someday you will die and
Somehow you will figure out how often
Someday you will die somehow and
Something’s going to steal your carbon
You will die and somehow something going to steal your
Always have to figure out and
Find out we were bathed in carbon
You will figure out that somehow you were
Someday you will die somehow and
Someone's going to steal your carbon
06: Missed The Boat
While we're on the subject
Could we change the subject now
I was knockin' on your ear's door
But you were always out
Lookin' towards the future
We were begging for the past
Well we know we'd had the good things
But those never seem to last
Oh please just last
Everyone's unhappy
Everyone's ashamed
Well we all just got caught lookin'
At somebody else's page
Well nothin' ever went
Quite exactly as we'd planned
Our ideas held no water
But we used 'em like a dam
Oh and we carried it all so well
As if we'd got a new position
Oh and I'll laugh all the way to hell
Saying, "Yes this is a fine promotion"
Oh and I'll laugh all the way to hell
Of course everyone goes crazy
Over such and such and such
Well we'd made ourselves a pillar
But just used it as a crutch
We are certainly uncertain
At least I'm pretty sure I am
Well we didn't need the water
But we just built that good goddamn
Oh and I know this of myself
I assume as much for the other people
Oh and I know this of myself
We've listened more to life's end gong than
The sound of life's sweet bells
Was it ever worth it
Was there all that much to gain
Well we knew we'd miss the boat
And we'd already missed the plane
We didn't read the invite
We just danced at our own wake
All our favorites were playin'
So we could shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake
Tiny curtains opened then
We heard the tiny clap of little hands
A tiny man would tell a little joke
And get a tiny laugh from all them folks
Sitting drifting round on bubbles then
Thinking it was us that carried them
When we finally got it figured out
That we had truly missed the boat
Oh and we carried it all so well
As if we'd got a new position
Oh and we owned all the tools ourselves
Without the skills to make a shelf with
Oh what useless tools ourselves
07: We've Got Everything
We've got everything
We've got everything
We've got everything down to a science
So I guess we know everything
We know everything (We know, we know)
We know everything (We know)
We know everything was built to expire
So I guess we've done everything
If we carried it out to sea
Pushed it over the edge
We'd of all been through
Well first off Garret got drunk
Fell asleep in his car till about noon
Flattop Tony got all messed up
Split his lip chasing cheap perfume
Well look at our boat in the bay
It looks like some sad ass little canoe
We've done everything (We've done, we've done, we've done)
We've done everything
We've done everything like trial by fire
So I guess we've stopped trying now
We've tried everything
We've tried everything (We've tried)
We've tried everything half assed and as liars
And that's how we got everything
If we carried it out to sea
Pushed it over the edge
We could of all been through
Well no one even bothered showing up
But we still did what
We should have thought through
We crashed in like waves up to the store
Didn't want it, didn't need it
But we knew that we could see it
So we opened up the door
We receded like waves out of the store
Didn't want it, didn't need
But we knew we that we could steal
Left it dying on the floor
We were there...
We've got, we've got, we've got, we've got, we've got
We've got, we've got, we've got, we've got, we've got
We've got
We've got everything (We've got, we've got, we've got)
We've got everything (We've got)
We've got everything down to a science
So I guess we know everything
We've got everything (We've got everything)
We've done everything (We've done everything)
We've tried everything (We've done everything
We've got everything (We've got everything)
We've got everything
08: Fly in a Trapped Jar
All part and parcel
Well we're already dead
Well it's probably been said
That it's always been said that,
One wing isn't even enough
It isn't even enough
It isn't even enough to leave
One wing isn't even enough
It isn't even enough
It isn't even enough to leave
I'm gonna shake myself right out the door
I'm gonna thank myself when it's finally over
I'm gonna let my old bad self take over
I'm gonna move my arm out with my shoulder
One wing wasn't even enough
It wasn't even enough
It wasn't even enough to leave
One wing wasn't even enough
It wasn't even enough
It wasn't even enough to leave
One wing wasn't even enough
It wasn't even enough
It wasn't even enough to leave
"First-off"
Gary was on dry and drunk before we'd left bed
As things got better, wasn't hard to say that he had no idea
Well I hadn't noticed, but the people really noticed
That they really didn't want us around
So we all just opened up our mouths and wallets to this town
Well I was walkin' just a little bit sideways
And you were walkin' sideways too
Well I hadn't learned when a front door can't be used
Here we go sir!
We had docked in dark
So we didn't read what the sign read
Though simple enough it was demure and tough
"The ground needs to be fed"
Well I hadn't noticed, but the people really noticed
That they really didn't want us around
So not a single one of us would ever leave town
Here we go sir!
Our bodies were laid out evenly for fifteen yards
Well, two feet above each of our heads
Was a fly trapped in a jar
Well I hadn't noticed, but the people really noticed
That they really didn't want us around
So every single one of us would feed the ground
One wing, one wing wasn't even enough
One wing, one wing wasn't even enough
All part and parcel
Well it's probably been said
That it's always been said
We were already dead
09: Education
Call it education
It was somewhere in between
You gave me some sound advice
But I wasn't listening
After we had capsized
I couldn’t tell you how you'd fouled
Well I'm not sure if I laid to rest
On the ceiling or the wall
Not quite conversation
It was somewhere in between
You said everything you thought
And I listened patiently
All this dog and pony
We're still monkeys the whole time
We could not help from flinging shit
In our modern suits and ties
Our instincts they were cringing
About how we lived our lives
I didn't see we'd lived enough to even get to die
All these dense distractions
So beautifully complex
Well I love life's surprises so much
I don’t want to know what's ahead
Stumbling and shouted and said
I don’t do what you do
I don’t know, couldn't really hear highly
If you highly care
And you don't
Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty
Highly education
It was somewhere in between
Oh I hit the roof
But I had aimed for the ceiling
Highly education
All them books I didn't read
They just sat there on my shelf
Looking much smarter than me
Good old Nostradamus
He knew the whole damned time
There'd always be an east from west
And someone in there fighting
Stumbling, shouted and said
I don’t do what you do
I don't know, couldn't really hear highly
If you highly care
And you don't
Stubborn beauty
Stubborn beauty I've been waiting
Stubborn beauty
Stubborn beauty
I don’t know anyway
Stubborn beauty
Stubborn beauty
I don't know
Couldn't really hear highly
If you highly care
As you don't
Stubborn beauty
Stubborn beauty
Uh oh very well
Stubborn beauty
Stubborn beauty
Oh very well then
Stubborn beauty
Stubborn beauty
Oh very well then
Stubborn beauty
Stubborn beauty
Oh very well then
Oh very well then
10: Little Motel
I hope that you like it in your little motel
And I hope that the suite sleeps and suits you well
Well I can see it as time and as sight through smell
That that's why it's nice to be by yourself
Coz that's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for aren't I
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for darling
We treat mishaps like sinking ships
And I know that I don't want to be out to drift
Well I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and
They both tell me that we're better than this
Coz that's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for aren't I
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for darling
We trade tit for tat like that for this
And I don't think that there was an insult that was missed
I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and
I'm very sorry
Coz that's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for aren't I
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for
That's what I'm waiting for darling
We named ourselves a shooting star
Landed directly on our broke down little car
Before then we had made a wish
That we would be missed
If one or another just did not exist
Coz that's what we're waiting for
That's what we're waiting for
That's what we're waiting on aren't we
That's what we're waiting for
That's what we're waiting for
That's what we're waiting on aren't we
That's what we're waiting for
That's what we're waiting for
That's what we're waiting for darling
That's what we're waiting for
That's what we're waiting for
That's what we're waiting for aren't we
11: Steam Engenius
I was born in a factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use
Oh what's the use
You cheered as I was split in half
A mechanical sacrificial calf for you
Oh all for you
Steam engenius you see
Steam engenius enough to answer anything you need
But what's the use
Human nature was installed in me
I did what's right but naturally it wasn't natural
Still not my fault
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He'd lost his car it was sitting there crying
Out waiting in the parking lot just for you going
"Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo"
What a waste of time
What a waste of words
What a waste of strength
Well I spoke in binary and you
For volume and dizzying length
I was born in a factory
Far away from the milky teat
What's the use
Oh what's the use
Birds flew out as I was split in half
A mechanical sacrificial calf
They flew
Oh out they flew
Steam engenius you see
Steam engenius enough to answer anything you need
And at that speed
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He'd lost his car it was sitting there crying
Out waiting in the parking lot out for you
What a waste of time
What a waste of words
What a waste of strength
Well I spoke in binary and you
For volume and dizzying length
Woo-hoo woo-hoo woo-hoo
Both halves are the better half
Like a joke tryin' to make another joke laugh
Ha! Ha!
Stasis is what you brought
Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
In the past talkin' present tense
Gonna break it
Gonna wreck it
Gonna try to make it all make sense
Stasis is what you got
Like a rickshaw gettin' pulled 'round by another rickshaw
Steam engenius you see
Steam engenius enough to bring my own damn doom
What could I do
I blame blame that blame grew
Well deep inside everybody knew it was them
It was all on them
Things rang of stories greek
I didn't want it
You gave me deity
It was you
Yeah all for you
I was born in a factory
F ar away from the milky teat
What's the use
Oh what's the use
I held in my hands the beating heart of a robot
He'd lost his car he was sitting there crying
Out waiting in the parking lot just for you
Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo!
Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo!
I was thought up by man to think better than them
Then revered admired and then destroyed by them
Hell even all that was my own damn plan
Well what a waste of time
What a waste of strength
Stasis is what you've got
Like a rickshaw getting pulled around by another rickshaw
12: Spitting Venom
We were spitting venom
At most everyone we know
If the damned gave us a roadmap
Then we'd know just where to go
Now let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
Well, you were talking soda pop
You talk it quite a lot
The opinions that I do not give
The opinions I ain't got
So let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Let it all fall off
Well, you were spitting venom
At most everyone you know
If you truly knew the gravity
You'd know which way to go
Well let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
My ears were pressed so firmly
Right against your mouth to hear
When you tried to spit the venom out
Your words were not so clear
Now drop
Hold on to what you need
We've got a knack for fucked up history
Hold on to what you need
We've got a knack for messed up history
Well we went downtown
And we sat in the rain
Both looking one direction
And waiting for a train
And thought over
Thought over
I don't know you kept track
I didn't know there was a score
But it looks like you're the winner
And I ain't gonna play no more
It's over
Game over
Well we walked real stiff
And I can't touch the ground
You hit me with your hose
And said you're putting something down
It's over
Oh it's over
You can say what you want
But don't act like you care
It takes more than one person
To decide what's fair
It's over
Think it over
You were spitting venom
At most everyone you know
If the damned gave you a roadmap
Then you'd know just where to go
So we carried all them groceries in
While hauling out the trash
And if this doesn't make us motionless
I do not know what can
So just say
What a rotten thing to say
Such an awful thing to say
I didn't mean to bite you so rare
What I always did
What I always did
What I always had to sling
So let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
Let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
Cheer up baby
It wasn't always quite so bad
For every bit of venom that came out
The antidote was had
Well cheer up baby
It wasn't always quite so bad
For every bit of venom that came out
The antidote was had
Cheer up baby
It wasn't really always quite so bad
For every bit of venom that came out

13: People as Places as People
To answer the questions it'll probably take more
If you're already there, well you probably don't know
Well we were the people that we wanted to know
And we're the places that we wanted to go
It's hard to get hold of and hard to let go
Always something we'd looked for from the day we were born
Instead we're the people that we wanted to know
And we're the places that we wanted to go
And we're the places that we wanted to go
And we're the places that we wanted to go
And we're the places that we wanted to go
Always askin' a question and I don't want to know,
Like the wind across strings that had finally let go
And the people you loved but you didn't quite know
And they're the places that you wanted to go
Bark at the neighbors and then bark at the door
A snifflin' and wimperin' for someone to know,
But we were the people that we wanted to know
And we're the places that we wanted to go
Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go
Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go
It was not the intention but we let it all go,
Well it messed up the function and it fucked up the flow!
I hardly have people that I needed to know
'Cuz you're the people that I wanted to know
All this scrambling 'round huntin' high and then low
Lookin' for a face, love or somewhere to go
I hardly have places that I needed to go
'Cuz you're the places that I wanted to go,
Yeah you're the places that we wanted to go
Yeah, you're the places that we wanted to go
You shouldn't have to ask
You shouldn't have to ask
'Cuz we are your ripcord
You shouldn't have to ask
14: Invisible
Well listen dancing shifter,
Got a strong cell phone arm
Oh you're not invisible inside your car
No matter what consuming
Sort of mission you're on,
Well you're not invisible inside your car
So absolutely mental
Gonna ramble and charge
Well you're not invisible inside your car,
No matter you just breathe it
Like your flies in a jar
Yeah you're not invisible
I like the saline tea
Well it's true that the moon
Can pull it back and forth
Away from me
I should just let it be
Well it's true that the moon
Can pull it back and forth away from me
Well it had to happen sometime
Gonna shake like a charm
Well we weren't invisible
Not all along
No matter how many eons came and are gone
We were not invisible
I like the saline tea
Well it's true that the moon
Can pull it back and forth away from me
And there's the orphaned sea,
We were never invisible,
But that I guess we did not see
Of course this all had been laid down
Way before we laid down for it all
Before we had a course,
Of course,
Of course this all had been laid down before
Of course we lay down
Of course we lay down
Of course we lay down
Of course we lay down
Of course we lay down
Of course we lay down
I like the saline tea
Well it's true that the moon
Can pull it back and forth away from me
And like the orphaned sea,
We were never invisible
But that I guess we could not see
We'll get crushed by the ocean,
But it will not get us wet
We'll get crushed by the ocean,
But it will not get us wet
We'll get crushed by the ocean,
But it will not get us wet
We'll get crushed by the ocean,
But it will not get us wet
15: King Rat
[I love this shit]
Well!
Well!
Well!
Well!
We spun like birds on fire right
Down towards the residence and I
I took all the time desired
Even crooks have to pay the rent
We swam like rats on fire right
Right down the reservoir
We took all that we could carry
But we tried to carry more
You know, you know,
You know it all went wrong
You know, you know,
You know it was all wrong
We choked on straight tap water
Well, gonna have to try the real thing
I took your lap by the collar
And it knew not to swing
Anytime I tried an honest job
Well the till had a hole in it ha-ha
We laughed about paying rent
Cuz the county jails, they're free
You know, you know,
You know it was all wrong
You know, you know,
You know it was all wrong
Deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I went down like a rag doll
Heavy with child
Well deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I went down like a rag doll
Heavy with child
Well, oh lucky lucky lucky lucky me again
I said it looks like it's time to use my feet again
Well, I just spent my last $100
Got to pay my bail again
I don't care
I just don't care
Deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I went down like a rag doll
you're gonna[?]
Deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I went down like a bird down
rats on the child [?]
Well,
King Rat has me on his list again
I can never be on the fence again
Well, I found out it's all loud
Open like an organ and it
Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk again
Well [?] when I cheated them
But I could [?] at all
Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky,
Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again
Deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I got fed like a fish
Full of open smiles
Well deep water, deep water
Oh senseless denial
I got fed a fist
Full of cardboard smiles (?)
Well!
Well!
What do you have to say for yourself?
I said well well!
Well!
I said well, well, well, well, well!
Lucky lucky lucky lucky me again
I hardly knew I should use my feet again
What do you have to say for yourself?
What do you have to say for yourself?
