1. Here's to the one with the smoking stare
Running through my head with a bolo knife
Chopping up the threads made up from looms
Of love and blood and hate and some empty tunes

Eyes killer cold and black and bare
Freaky little tooth hanging solo
Sucking at the walls like a rolo now
Making a cocoon where my brain fits

I wanna go back, I wanna go back
I wanna go back with a club and attack
I wanna take to my guns and break you
I gotta make my little foe take his own

I wanna go back, I wanna go back
I wanna go back with a club and attack
I wanna take to my guns and break you
I gotta make my little foe take his own

I'm overgrown with a yellow mould
Just fizzing drones in a hollow dome
My funny nose dripping little groans
I'm so so cold in the marrow of my bones

I look at you as you take a snooze
Your skinny lips dripping rabid goo
I lift your chin and I grin at you
As you come to, man
I'm running round your head with a bolo knife

I'm gonna go back, I'm gonna go back
I'm gonna go back to a face, no more mask
I was in full bloom until I met you
I'm gonna shake my fetters, I'm breaking loose

I'm gonna go back, I'm gonna go back
I'm gonna go back to a face, no more mask
I was in full bloom until I met you
I'm gonna shake my fetters, I'm breaking loose

I'm gonna go back, I'm gonna go back
I'm gonna go back to a face, no more mask
I was in full bloom until I met you
I'm gonna shake my fetters, I'm breaking loose

2. What'll it be now mister mole
Whisper sloth in curls of smoke
Take a back seat
Or play pharaoh
Dance with me
And shake your bones

Slow down
It's a science
He's been waiting
To bring you down

Snake eyed
With a sly smile
He can hold you
And shake you child

Leopards laze each
On plush pillows
Slender capes
Of red and chrome

Paperback dreams
In their deep doze
Twitch their toes to
Black mambo

Slow down
It's a science
He's been waiting
To bring you down

Snake eyed
With a sly smile
He can hold you
And shake you child

Wanna play cheat
Now says the sloth
A domino
Flush to his nose

Tickle that cheek
And take your throne
Pump your veins
With gushing gold

Slow down
It's a science
He's been waiting
To bring you down

Snake eyed
With a sly smile
He can hold you
And shake you child

We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
3. We float before the sea at dusk
In heavy mist, in glitter dust
I smile before I want to
I smile because you want to

We sip the wind through lips of lust
And out it comes, warm wisps of love
I smile because I want to
I smile because you want to

Put the flowers in your hair
Wrap your tendrils round my chest
I smile because I want to
I am your boy

Shake my little soul for you now, toy
And I settle up into a world of noise
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
With a battery of guilt on which to poise

Down by the shore, a funny foal
Who bit my wings and ate them whole
You left before I come to
You left before I come to

We took to hills into the trees
I hit my head and bit the leaves
You left before I come to
You left before I...

Shake my little soul for you now, toy
And I settle up into a world of noise
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
With a battery of guilt on which to poise

Shanks of slate fall to the beach
Wrapped in life in ultra greens
Pools teem with tiny feet
And whorls of tired anemones
You left before I got to
You left before I got to
You left before I
You left before I...

Shook the flowers from your hair
Run to me and kiss my hands
I'm dead before I...
I'm dead before I...

Shake my little soul for you now, toy
And I settle up into a world of noise
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
With a battery of guilt on which to poise

Shake my little soul for you now, toy
And I settle up into a world of noise
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
With a battery of guilt on which to poise

I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
4. Alright, come close
Let me show you everything I know
The jungle slang
Spinning 'round my head and I stare
While my naked fool
Fresh out of an icky gooey womb
A woozy youth
Dopes up on her silky smooth perfume

Right, my little pooh bear, wanna take a chance?
Wanna sip the smooth air, kick it in the sand
I'd say I told you so but you just gonna cry
You just wanna know those peanut butter vibes

My, my simple sir, this ain't gonna work
Mind my wicked words and tipsy topsy slurs
I can't take this place, no I can't take this place
I just wanna go where I can get some space

Truth be told
I've been here, I've done this all before
I take your gloom
I curl it up and puff it into plumes

Right, my little pooh bear, wanna take a chance?
Wanna sip this smooth air, kick it in the sand
I'd say I told you so but you just gonna cry
You just wanna know those peanut butter vibes

My, my simple sir, this ain't gonna work
Mind my wicked words and tipsy topsy slurs
I can't take this place, no I can't take this place
I just wanna go where I can get some space

Hold my hand and float back to the summer time
Tangled in the willows now our tongues are tied
How can I believe you, how can I be nice
Tripping around the tree stumps in your summer smile

Right, my little pooh bear, wanna take a chance?
Wanna sip this smooth air, kick it in the sand
I'd say I told you so but you just gonna cry
You just wanna know those peanut butter vibes

My my simple sir, this ain't gonna work
Mind my wicked words and tipsy topsy slurs
I can't take this place, no I can't take this place
I just wanna go where I can get some space


5. Hi my little naked man
I saw you there looking sad
Face so lost, petrified
Timid twitch in your wide eyes

My oh my such strange supplies
Many spoons all in a pile
Did you bend ‘em with your mind?
Precious precious right right right

[Chorus:]
Honey honey, don’t you cry
It’s a ruse
All these creatures are a lie
Funny bunny, it’s alright
I clap my hands
And they’re gone into the night

Wiggle toes on wicker braids
Hanging with their nails so frayed
Mini fruits all bone dry
And a cape, black tie-dyed

I bet I can make you smile
In the pools of moonlight
Watch this little trick of mine
Say with me this tiny rhyme

[Chorus]

Take my hand

6. (Instrumental)
7. Your baby's fallen
You know I'm talking now
You know I'm dancing
You know I'm racing round

No no you're so juiced
You said you'd kick the booze
You know I'll get bruised
You know I'm just a boy

Come back baby, don't you cry
Don't you drain those big blue eyes
I've been crawling
Come back baby, don't you cry
Just you say the reason why
I can calm you

You say I'm bawling
I say I'm begging while
You take my photo
I fake my breaking smile
I'm fucking loco
I can't get through to you
You turn your nose you
Spark up and I can go

Come back baby, don't you cry
Don't you drain those big blue eyes
I've been crawling
Come back baby, don't you cry
Just you say the reason why
I can calm you
8. Put your hand down, boy
Welcome to my zoo
Put your head inside
My big black wild while
I can still help you

See the snake-baboon
Funky, chic and smooth
Honey can you spy
The divine ape-swine
'Cause he can see you

I'm a man, I'm a twisted fool
My hands are twisted, too
Five fingers to black hooves
I'm a man, don't spin me a lie
Got toes and I can smile
I'm crooked but upright

And all I ever want
Is just a little love
I said in purrs under the palms
And all I ever want
Is breaking me apart
I said to the thing that I once was

I'm a man, I'm a twisted fool
My hands are twisted too
Five fingers to black hooves
I'm a man, don't spin me a lie
Got toes and I can smile
I'm crooked but upright

To the left now, boy
Underneath the moon
By the thick tan sand
And the tall thin grass
One more thing for you

See the distant flume
In the sleepy dunes
Makes my nerves clench close
And my bones go cold
When I see that room

And all I ever want
Is just a little love
I said in purrs under the palms
And all I ever want
Is breaking me apart

I'm a man, I'm a twisted fool
My hands are twisted too
Five fingers to black hooves
I'm a man, don't spin me a lie
Got toes and I can smile
I'm crooked but upright
9. Twee vole go dig your hole
Squish squirmies in your nose
Tree hairs in your eyes
You smile so super quiet

Free air you slip on
A cave edge, a black bowl
Breathing deep and slow
As your own splash echoes

You can’t run so you must hide
You won’t make it back this time
I sold your rope for a bucket
Of lemon peel, now suck it

So my friend our time is done
You and I could’ve had so much
With ropes for the bucket
Of luscious black gold nuggets, yeah...

Oh, vole where did you go?
Dim lanterns held by groans
Of beasties sad and tired
Lost in the muck and...

It’s all dank and gross
Slugs on shrooms bubble smoke
Through pipes and mondo rolls
Their fuzzy warbles drone

Mmmm, baby
Mmmm, baby
Mmmm, baby please
Don't go

You can’t run so you must hide
You won’t make it back this time
I sold your rope for a bucket
Of lemon peel, now suck it

So my friend our time is done
You and I could’ve had so much
With ropes for the buckets
Of luscious black gold nuggets

You can’t run so you must hide
You won’t make it back this time
I sold your rope for a bucket
Of lemon peel, now suck it

So my friend our time is done
You and I could’ve had so much
With ropes for the buckets
Of luscious black gold nuggets, yeah...
10. This old goat with beard of Grey
He turns his leather gripped cane,
Those times you clapped and called for quiet
They've come to hold you, ain't that nice?
He packs a fat oom paul to
Jib and make home-baked perfume
Sips froth from soft, warm joe
Snug eiderdown bedclothes

You know, you know the way that I hide

Come on you hermit, you never fight back
Why don't you play with bows and arrows?
Why don't you dance like
You're sick in your mind?
Why don't you set your wings on fire?

You slick back that wiry mane
A neat tucked slice
Deep trees sleep on the dank lawn
And scratch the slate
You finger down that waxen line
Between your breasts
That squeaky pain upon each breath
The plumbers left

You know the way that I hide for you

Come on you hermit, you never fight back
Why don't you play with bows and arrows?
Why don't you dance like
You're sick in your mind?
Why don't you set your wings on fire?

Come on you hermit, why don't you play nice?
Why don't you toy with sex and violence?
Why don't you stare back
Into my huge eye?
Why don't you set my wings on fire?

11. Oooooooh...

I
Breathe
Air
And sigh

Tou...
...can
Sleeps
And cries

I'm all armored up
I've got my old helmet on
Keeping out an eye
Puffing all my feathers up

One more little blow
One more tap and I'll collapse
Teetering on a toe
I feel that final poke

Please, it's not okay
Oh can't you feel your dirty face
Oh don't it leave that filthy taste
When you squeeze that life untamed

I
Free
Fall
Real slow

I'm all drying out
Where my funny friends gone?
You're in paradise
Who's gonna plant the flowers huh?

Weak and worried I
Shut my wild eyes
And crumble to a pile
Of dust and fertilize

Please, it's not okay
Oh can't you feel your dirty face
Oh don't it leave that filthy taste
When you squeeze that life untamed
(Take my hand and let us fall)

Play with me and pass the ball
Take my hand and let us fall

Play with me and pass the ball
Take my hand and let us fall

I
Breathe
Air
And sigh

You
Can't
Breathe
Without me
