1. ULYSSES

Well I sit and hear sentimental footsteps
Then a voice say, "Hi, so?
So what you got, what you got this time?
Come on, let's get high"

Come on, Lexo, what you got next-o?
Walk twenty-five miles-o
Well I'm bored, I'm bored
Come on, let's get high

Come on, let's get high
Come on, let's get high, high

Well I found a new way
I found a new way
Come on, don't amuse me
I don't need your sympathy

La, la-la-la-la
Ulysses
I've found a new way
I've found a new way, baby

Am I Ulysses? Am I Ulysses?
No, but you are now boy
So sinister, so sinister
But last night was wild

What's the matter there? Feeling kinda anxious?
That hot blood grew cold
Yeah, everyone, everybody knows it
Yeah, everyone, everybody knows it
Everybody knows it

La, la-la-la-la
Ulysses
I've found a new way
I've found a new way, baby

La, la-la-la-la
Ulysses
I've found a new way
Well, I've found a new way, baby

Oh, oh then suddenly you know
You're never going home
You're never, you're never, you're never
You're never, you're never, you're never
You're never going home

You're not Ulysses
Baby, no, la-la-la-la, hoo hoo hoo
You're not Ulysses, hoo hoo hoo
La-la-la-la, hoo hoo hoo


2. TURN IT ON

It ain't easy being this kind of lover
When you never call me
It ain't easy being this kind of lover
Won't you ever call me

I'm dedicated, yes, I'm a forgiver
I'm dedicated, sure, I'm a giver
I'm dedicated, yes, I'm a forgiver
I'll forgive you always

Although I know you turn it on, yeah

Although I know you turn it on, yeah
(Turn it on)

Although I know you turn it on, yeah

You don't wanna know how I manage alone
Oh, no, you don't wanna know
What goes on when I'm on my own
You don't wanna know how I plan on my own
Oh, no, you don't wanna know
How I know when you're on your own

I'll never be alone, yeah
(Turn it on)
You know I followed you to Rome, yeah
(Turn it on)

I know the places you call home, yeah
(Turn it on)
You know I'll get you on your own, yeah
Turn it on

If I can't have you then nobody can
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You turn it on

Oh, you turn it on


3. NO YOU GIRLS

Oh, kiss me
Lick your cigarette then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won't meet me
Meet me where your mind won't kiss me

Lick your eyes and mine and then hit me
Hit me with your eyes so sweetly
Oh, you know, you know, you know that, yes, I love
I mean I'd love to get to know you

Do you never wonder?
No, no, no, no

You girls never know, oh, no, you girls will never know
No, you girls never know how you make a boy feel
You girls never know, oh, no, you girls will never know
No, you girls never know how you make a boy feel
How you make a boy

Oh, kiss me
Lick your cigarette and then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won't meet me
Meet me where your eye won't lick me

Lick your mind and mine so briefly
Oh, you know, you know you're so sweetly
Oh, you know, you know, I know that I love you
I mean I, I mean I need to love

Do you never wonder?
No, no, no, no

You girls never know, oh, no, you girls will never know
No, you girls never know how you make a boy feel
You girls never know, oh, no, you girls will never know
No, you girls never know how you make a boy feel
How you make a boy feel, how you make a boy

Sometimes I say stupid things that I think
Well, I mean, I, sometimes I think the stupidest things
Because I never wonder how the girl feels
Oh, how the girl feels

No, you boys never care, oh, no, you boys will never care
No, you boys never care, how the girl feels
You boys never care, you dirty boys will never care
No, you boys never care, how the girl feels
Oh, how the girl feels, oh, how the girl feels


4. SEND HIM AWAY

I can't seem to feel the envy
I should feel or maybe
I don't need the sour side of love, of love

No, I don't care his breath is in your hair
Well, I don't care his skin is still between
Still on fold of your sheets, send him away

I don't mean to claim or own you
Or maybe I would like to
But I need whatever side of love is there

No, I don't care his breath is in your hair
Well, I don't care his skin is still between
Still on fold of your sheets
From the fold of your sheets, send him away

Send him away, send him away
Send him away, send him away

Oh, can't you let me stay tonight?
Oh, can't you let me stay tonight?
Oh, can't you let me stay tonight?
Oh, can't you let me stay tonight?
Oh, can't you let me stay tonight?
Oh, can't you let me stay tonight?


5. TWILIGHT OMENS

I wrote your name upon the back of my hands
Slept upon it and I woke up with it
Backwards on my face
Reading forwards to my mirror to my heart

Twilight omens in my life
Then I hear your name
Hear the way you sing your name
Should I give you a call, what can I say?
Maybe, you still feel the same

I typed your number into my calculator
Where it's spelled as your word
When you turn it upside down
You can turn my dirty world the bright way 'round

Twilight omens in my life
Then I hear your name
Hear the way you sing your name
Should give you a call, what can I say?
Oh, maybe I still feel the same

Twilight omens in my life
I keep hearing your name
I keep hearing your name
Keep hearing your name

I hear the radio sing your name
Hear the radio sing your name
Hear the radio sing your name


6. BITE HARD

You don't know I sing these songs about you
You don't know the pseudonyms I assume
You don't know the pseudonyms I assume for you

Are you happier now that the guards are dying
Or do you dream of Heston with omniscient fear?
You should be happier now with no one to pray to
Or would I love to break your knees from beggin' and prayin'

Bite hard, well, it's a broken smile
Breaking their hearts and breaking their minds
Bite hard, well, it's a 505
Your engine's alive, we ride together
Bite hard, bite hard

I may be lonelier now but I'm happy alone, honest
I ain't lonely alone but what would we talk about anyway?
No, I'd never resort to kissing your photo, honest
I just had to see how the chemicals taste now, honey

Bite hard, well, it's a broken smile
Breaking their hearts and breaking their minds
Bite hard, well, it's a 505
Your engine's alive, we ride together
We ride together, we die together
Bite hard, bite hard, oh, bite hard

Oh, I never, I never, I never, no, I never
I just had to, I just had to
I just had to see my honey

Bite hard, well, it's a broken smile
Breaking their hearts and breaking their minds
Bite hard, well, it's a 505
Your engine's alive, we ride together
We ride together, we die together


7. WHAT SHE CAME FOR

I got a question for you
I got a question for you
Where did you get your name from?
Where did you get your name from?

I got a question for you
Where do you see yourself
In five minutes time?

With a laugh like that or a look like that
You make us all feel gauche like it's a sweaty joke
But with a laugh like that or a move like that
You make us all just go, la, la, la, la

Woah, look out
You're what she came for
You're what she came for
No question, no doubt

Woah, look out
You're what she came for
Knows what she came for
No question, no doubt, woah
You're what she came for, oho

I got a question for you
Another question for you
Oh, do you feel the
Oh, do you feel the pressure?

Why you're wearing?
What you're wearing?
Where will your life be gone
In five minutes time?

So say something stupid
You know that you love to

Woah, look out
You're what she came for
You're what she came for
No question, no doubt

Woah, look out
You're what she came for
Knows what she came for
No question, no doubt, woah
You're what she came for, oho

You're what she came for, oho
You're what she came for, oho
You're what she came for
You're what she came for
You're what she came for


8. LIVE ALONE

I wanna live alone
Because the greatest love is always ruined
By the bickering, the argument of living

I wanna live alone
I could be happy on my own
With the rest of my life
With the vaguest of feeling, I

Wherever you are, whoever is there
You know that I'll be here, I'll be here
Wishing that I could be there

Wherever you are, whoever is there
You know that I'll be here, I'll be here
Wishing I could be there

So I'm gonna live alone
I'm not saying that all of it's the greatest
But I'm in love with you, wanna stay in love with you

So I'm gonna live alone
Yeah, I'll be happy on my own
With the rest of the life
With the vaguest of feeling, I

Wherever you are, whoever is there
You know that I'll be here, I'll be here
Wishing I could be there

New York City, when I get in a taxi
I say, "Man" to the driver", so he'll say, "Man"
Well, I can imagine having a drink with that guy

He's alright
Oh, he's alright
He's alright
Yeah, he's alright
He's alright

Wherever you are, whoever is there
You know that I'll be here, I'll be here
Wishing I could be there

Wherever you are, whoever is there
You know that I'll be here, I'll be here
Wishing I could be there


9. CAN'T STOP FEELING

My soul starts spinning again
I can't stop feeling, no, I won't stop feeling
And the fun's not fun anymore
I can't stop feeling, no, I won't stop feeling

You leave me here on my own
You leave me here on the floor
You can't feel it, you can't feel it
You can't feel it, you can't feel anymore
Feel anymore, feel anymore, feel anymore

My soul starts spinning again
I can't stop feeling, no, I won't stop feeling
And we're not us anymore
I can't stop, no, I won't stop

You leave me dancing alone
You leave me to die on the floor
You can't feel it, you can't feel it
You can't feel it, you can't feel anymore
Feel anymore, feel anymore, feel anymore

Soul boy, down and alone
And his soul is broken again
But you can't stop moving
No, you won't stop moving along

You can't feel it, you can't feel it
You can't feel it, you can't feel anymore
Can't feel anymore, can't feel anymore, can't feel
You can't feel anymore, anymore, anymore
You can't feel anymore


10. LUCID DREAMS

Sweep slides on my stereo
Short wave ride my rodeo
Became from that of Savalon
But I'm flyin' to Istanbul
Oh, so why don't you meet me there?

There is no nation of you, there is no nation of me
Our only nation lives in lucid dreams
Lucid dreams, I'm livin’ in lucid dreams
I'm livin’ on shortwave streams tonight

Well, I'll dial Alexandria
If you dial into Ithaca
South Fisher, German bite
I skate on the world tonight
Oh, so why don't you come along?

There is no nation of you, there is no nation of me
Our only nation lives in lucid dreams
Lucid dreams, I'm livin’ in lucid dreams
I'm livin’ on shortwave streams tonight

I'm gonna give my aimless love
My angry heart, my desire
I woke with wings from lucid dreams
I knew the reason I felt hollow
Was it I may never know
If there is some great truth or not

There is no nation of you, there is no nation of me
Our only nation lives in lucid dreams
Lucid dreams, I'm livin’ in lucid dreams
I'm livin’ on shortwave streams tonight

Lucid dreams, I'm livin’ on lucid dreams
Now there is just plain mystery


11. DREAM AGAIN

Don't be afraid if you hear voices
Or feel the sweet air spoken upon you
Sometimes the sound of a thousand whispering words
Of hope will reassure, show me the future

Will see us joined together
If the oceans fled or the mountains sigh
Then I will keep on dreaming

I live to dream again, I live to dream again
I live to dream again

Don't be afraid if you're descending
The deepest despair without a handrail to guide you
Sometimes the sound
Of a thousand whispering words can confuse

But when you're sleeping
They shift and slide together
Bring meaning to the canyon's cry
Oh, I, I keep on dreaming

I live to dream again, I live to dream again
I live to dream again, I live to dream again

Sometimes the sound of a thousand whispers
Are where you live a little fear but feel the future
Well, I feel us dream together
I feel no fear, I feel no fire
Oh, I, I keep on dreaming

I live to dream again, I live to dream again
I live to dream again, I live to dream again
I live to dream again, I live to dream again
I live to dream


12. KATHERINE KISS ME

Katherine, kiss me
Slip your little lips will split me
Split me away, your eye won't hit me
Yes, I love you, I mean, I
I'd love to get to know you

Sometimes I say the stupid things I think, I mean, I
Sometimes I think the stupidest things
And do you ever wonder how the boy feels?

Katherine, kiss me
Flick your cigarette then kiss me
Flick your eyes at mine so briefly
Your leather jacket lies in sticky pools of Cider Blackberry

You glance and ricochet
From every alpha male behind me
Eyes like bubbles on the washing machine
I wonder how the boy feels

Katherine, kiss me
In the alleyway by [Incomprehensible]
Jacket in the sodium light
Yes, I love you, I mean, I, I mean, I need to love

And though your opened eyes stay bored
Upon the overflowing pipes above me
Tonight I don't mind
Because I never wonder how the girl feels
