honeycomb 02:48
Oh if you want to see the birds and the bees / Koala bears and kumquat trees / Whoa be my honeycomb / If you want to hear the monkey sound / If you want to feel upside down / Whoa, be my honeycomb / (Chorus:) Cause you don't think I'm dumb / And I don't think I'm stupid / When you play your drum / I don't play the cupid / To your soul. Oh if you want another chance in life go and buy a loaded gun / If you want to hear what the monkey said / If you want to feel, feel dead / Whoa be my honeycomb (Chorus x 2)
2.
ghost 02:06
Sick of hearing about you from the word of mouth / Let's together and work it out / To bad we've been in this rift / Cause I bought you a gift / A sweet loving ghost, loving ghost / (Chorus:) You wager wager you war / I don't know what this line is for / When you head out the door / And you're trying to score / At five o'clock, at six o'clock. Why don't you give me some time / Cause I keep on trying / I want to be your ghost, be your ghost / (Chorus)
3.
Oh I'm just trying to go to bed / Thinking of your scent / From two weeks ago / Ten cents says you're reticent / You won't come here again / You won't come again / Sufficiently damned / Trying to love you / Trying to make sense of you / Just trying to play my part / Trying to play my part / Pay-pay-paper presidents on the monumental mountain mountain mountain top / I can't even pay the rent / I'm living the valley / In this leaky tent / And I'm sufficiently damned (x4)
4.
Amazon in Paris / Getting awful careless / Amazon in love / Waking everybody, everybody up / (Chorus:) Amazon in love / You grew your tits too long / You shave your breasts at dawn / Cause it suits you / Amazon in love / You grew your nuts too long / You shave your breasts at dawn / Cause it suits you, it suits you. Amazon in love (x4). And you were creepy when you tried / To date an ordinary guy / And the bills you couldn't pay were infinite / The bills you couldn't pay... / (Chorus)
5.
show off 03:24
You're such a show off / Showing off your goods / Singing all your dance tunes / When you don't the words! / First your grandfather spoiled you / Then granny too / And a couple of uncles / Who both seemed like fools / (Chorus:) And you are beautiful when you laugh / You make the falling stars wanna to crash / It's just these lonely mornings... You're such a show off / Showing off your goods / Hiding dirty laundry wherever you could / First you found an agent / Then your band got signed / You got fucking famous / And never made a dime. (Chorus)
6.
Your weeping willow is weeping, weeping way too long / Weeping her branches out / The twentieth-first century has been horrible from the start / It's already gone / So where do we go, where do we go, where do we go now? (x4) / Weeping willow / There's no way out / Weeping willow
7.
hostile eyes 04:01
We're lost tonight / Wandering through this city / With hostile eyes / That don't know where to run / We compromised / To see it through the weekend / But you lost your mind / And we don't know where to run. (Chorus:) Situations that we entered / Our complicated time together / You're just saying now / You want a chance to love a little less. Your alibis are building up a wall / Of lullabies / That I can't sing at all / And I was mesmerized / When I first saw your apartment / But we're lost tonight / And we don't know where to run (Chorus)
8.
fishwives 02:38
You kept me guessing / And I was arrested in the night / I guess that's a lesson / Don't get beaten in your fights. (Chorus:) I'm always woken up by Catholic Bells / And when you sleep the night I love your smell. You're just an actor / You're just putting on a mask / A lot of laughter / A lot of sadness in your craft. (Chorus) But we've been at it too long (x6)
9.
Hear my letter out / You stamp / Brazil flower / Set in glue. (Chorus:) You're everyone, you're everyone, you're everyone you say. And you left your coronas everywhere, everywhere. Hey 8-ball / Why did you ask? / Cause it's decided / Inside of you. (Chorus) And you left your pajamas everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. Hear my letter out (x4)
10.
I hope you die in your sleep / Because I hear that's a real nice way to go / It sure beats drowning or freezing in the snow. (Chorus:) Oh we fear our death because it's the great unknown / But if you want some rest, it's the way to go, so way to go. Don't fear your god / For if she is just / She won't let you burn in hell for all the sins you've got / And I can't help but think of all the things / It's the infinite possibility. (Chorus)
11.
(Refrain:) You said to the judge / I want some fresh white towels / Folded into squares above my knees / And you told your lawyer / This pool is going to drown you / Swim to California and you'll freeze. The verdict came out / It bummed me out (x2). And you said to the jury / Don't insult my worries / I've got problems enough, baby / And you said to the guilty / Your t-shirt's always filthy / You haven't done your laundry in three weeks. And I know, I know it seems unfair / They're way up high and you're stuck down here / So never mind what the outcome is / The sun will shine and we'll still have kids. (Refrain)

Moonshine 01:36
My baby, my baby, my baby she pay me no mind My baby, my baby, my baby we just making time She say she gonna do what I say She say she we gonna be fine But what she do and what she say ain't making no rhyme My baby, my baby, my baby she pay me no mind My baby, my baby, my baby we just making time She say she gonna do what I say She say she gonna be mine But all I got to love me is Kentucky moonshine My baby, my baby, my baby she pay me no mind My baby, my baby, my baby we just making time [break] My baby, my baby, my baby she pay me no mind My baby, my baby, my baby we just making... time
13.
searchable 02:38
You went searching / For those you trusted / And when you found them / Their eyes were rusty / So you kept on moving / You kept on dodging / Down back roads / Feeling rotten. (Chorus:) You know where it's at / I don't search for that / You know where you've been (x5). You're so searchable / I'll search you right now / But I'm not dependable / So I shut that search down / I left in the afternoon / In the hammering light / Away from that hotel room / And that dirty night (Chorus)
