1. I'M HOLDING YOU

I'm flyin (flying)
In a frame of my mind
That time cannot erase

I'm seein' (seein')
The future, the past
As i lay the present to waste

I'm scopin' (scopin')
All these feelings i have
And hopin' for them to come true
And i'm holdin'
Something more precious
Than fine ore, baby
I'm holdin' you

I'm breathin'
The fumes of the grid
That rid my lobe of oxygen

I'm climbin'
The walls to where good
And evil make a mends

I'm trippin
Writhin' and squealing, pewkin'
Looking for someone like you
And i'm holdin'
Something more precious
Than fine ore, baby
I'm holdin' you

(solos)

I'm flyin'
In a frame of my mind
That time cannot erase

I'm seein'
The future, the past
As i lay the present to waste

I'm scopin'
All these feelings i have
And hopin' for them to come true
And i'm holdin'
Something more precious
Than fine ore, baby
I'm holdin' you

And i'm holdin'
Somethin' more precious
Than fine ore, baby
I'm holdin' you


2. JAPANESE COWBOY

Like a japanese cowboy
Or a brother on skates
Like a blizzard in georgia
Or a train runnin' late
I call out your name girl
In the heat of the night
And nobody answers
Coz somethin' ain't right

Breakfast at shawny's
At $2.99
Saved me me some money
And eased up my mind
I'm walkin' in circles
And feelin' the pain
I'm tossin' and turnin'
And cryin' in vain

Like a japanese cowboy
Or a brother on skates
Like a blizzard in georgia
Or a train runnin' late
I call out your name girl
In the heat of the night
And nobody answers
Coz somethin' ain't right

Here we go.. (solo)

I'm ridin' at midnight
And crossin' the line
From the rain in my windshield
And the tears in my eyes
Now the bedroom is empty
And i spent my last dime
And the lovers are leavin'
I got nothin' but time
I got you on my mind

Like a japanese cowboy
Or a brother on skates
Like a blizzard in georgia
Or a train runnin' late
I call out your name girl
In the heat of the night
And nobody answers
Coz somethin' ain't right


3. PISS UP A ROPE

My dinner's on fire
While she watches tv
And if you've ever wondered
What it's like to be me
She takes all my money
And leaves me no smokes
Yells at my buddies
And insults my folks
I'm breakin' my back doin' the best that i can
She's got time for the dog and none for her man
And i'm no dope
But i can't cope
So hit the fuckin' road and piss up a rope

You can
Piss up a rope
And you can put on your shoes
Hit the road get truckin'
Pack your bag
I don't need the ag
On your knees you big, booty bitch start suckin'
You ride my ass
Like a horse in a saddle
Now you're up shits creek
With a turd for a paddle
And i can't cope
Piss up a rope

Uh you can piss up a rope
And feel the pissy dribble
You can piss up a rope
And watch me giggle
For the last 6 months
I been packin' your bag
You can wash my balls
With a warm, wet rag
Till my balls feel smooth
And soft like silk
I'm sick of your mouth
And your 2 percent milk
And i'm no dope
But i've lost all hope
So hit the fuckin' road and
Piss up a rope

You can
Piss up a rope
And you can put on your shoes
Hit the road get truckin'
Pack your bag
I don't need the ag
On your knees you big, booty bitch start suckin'
You ride my ass
Like a horse in a saddle
Now you're up shits creek
With a turd for a paddle
And i can't cope
Piss up a rope

(solos)

You can
Piss up a rope
And you can put on your shoes
Hit the road get truckin'
Pack your bag
I don't need the ag
On your knees you big, booty bitch start suckin'
You ride my ass
Like a horse in a saddle
Now you're up shits creek
With a turd for a paddle
And i can't cope
Piss up a rope
(repeat)


4. I DON'T WANNA LEAVE YOU ON THE FARM

I don't wanna leave you on the farm
I don't wanna leave you on the farm
I don't wanna go
Oh, just so ya know
I don't wanna leave you on the farm
Days go by
And i'm still high
But you know
I'm thinkin' about you
Corn's turned brown
The eves fall to the ground
It's a sound that reminds
Me of you

I don't wanna leave you on the farm
I don't wanna leave you on the farm
I don't wanna go
Oh, just so ya know
I don't wanna leave you on the farm

No telephone
To call you at home
I'm alone
On the throne
Go get somethin'
Hey, thanks for nothin'
I'll keep truckin'
And gettin' myself stoned

I don't wanna leave you on the farm
I don't wanna leave you on the farm
I don't wanna go
Oh, just so ya know
I don't wanna leave you on the farm

Days go by
And i'm still high
But you know
I'm thinkin' about you
Corn's turned brown
The eves fall to the ground
It's a sound that sticks
Like glue


5. PRETTY GIRL

There's a sweater wearin'
Coat totin'
Boot footin'
Good lookin' man
On town

There's a smooth-talkin'
Funny walkin' dude
Around

There's a pretty girl
And she sees him walkin'
Looking him up and down
She thinks she'd like to
Roll and rock him
Turn his life around

There's a scum-suckin'
Lip pucking
Fat ol'
Truck drivin' man
On town
There's a boot lickin'
High tickin' dude
Around

There's a pretty girl
And he sees her walkin'
Looking her up and down
He'd like for her to
Roll and rock him
Turn his life around

(solos)

There's a sweater wearin'

Looking him up and down
She thinks she'd like to
Roll and rock him
Turn his life around
Turn his life around

Turn his life around

7. MISTER RICHARD SMOKER

Mister richard smoker
You're a poopey poker
Chardonnay & cocaine in the spa
Cigarettes and coffee breath
Little boys on crystal meth
Tonight we'll tango in the street
You eat
Dog meat

Mister richard smoker
You're a chicken choker
Tonight you're gonna
Let it all hang out
Pantihose and aqua net
Smokin' menthol cigarettes
Tonight we'll tango in the street
You eat
Dog meat

Smoke!

(solos)

You eat
Dog meat

Mister richard smoker
You're an ono yoker
Cognac and black coffee
With the boys
Dancin' in your buster browns
Whirlin' to the techno sounds
Your hands are wet
Your hair is slick
You smoke
Big dick

Mister richard smoker
You're a velvet coker
Bruce and geoff will
Pick you up at ten
Goin' out
Dancin' in the city
Friday night
Gotta look pretty
Tonight we'll tango in the street
You eat
Dog meat


8. HELP ME SCRAPE THE MUCUS OFF MY BRAIN

I guess it's somethin' in mu brain
I need whiskey, ease the pain
But it's early in the mornin'
And i'm feelin' bad again

But if you ever loved me
You'll go easy on me now
Fix me up a cup of coffee
And in a while i'll come around

I think i spent the dog-food money
But he'll love me just the same
If you really love me baby
Help me scrape the mucus off my brain

(solos)

It's a shame when morning hurts
I've seen bad and i've seen worse
It's the nature of my bein'
I took some money from your purse

N'that frenchman loves to party
And i know he's not to blame
But the way you're lookin' at me baby
I just can't help but feel the shame

I think i spent the dog-food money
But he'll love me just the same
And if you really love me baby
Help me scrape the mucus off my brain

And if you really love me baby
Help me scrape the mucus off my brain


9. YOU WERE THE FOOL

Bless the father bless the son
Cross your heart cos you're the one
Collectin' moon-beams in the mornin'

Curvy sticks and wooden poles
Assistin' you in pluggin' holes
Plug them holes till you see
Straight through to the mind's eye

Think about it turn around
And go back to the quiet sound
Of jim and dan prancin' round the pool
You were the fool
And i feel sorry for you
You were the fool
But there's something you can do

You can wash your arm in a pool of mud
You can chop a tree prevent a flood
You can speak with a turtle just by flippin' him around

You can build a boat sail the sea
You can buy a moat forge a key
Initiate the sequence create catastrophe

Think about it turn around
And go back to the quiet sound
Of jim and dan prancin' round the pool
You were the fool
And i feel sorry for you
You were the fool
But there's something you can do

Bless the father bless the son
Cross your heart cos you're the one
Collectin' moon-beams in the mornin'

Curvy sticks and wooden poles
Assistin' you in pluggin' holes
Plug them holes till you see
Straight through to the mind's eye

Think about it turn around
And go back to the quiet sound
Of jim and dan prancin' round the pool
You were the fool
And i feel sorry for you
You were the fool
But there's something you can do
You were the fool


10. FLUFFY

Fluffy
Furry buddy
Chewed his leg
On the porch
Why'd you do it fluffy
On the porch
Good dog fluffy
O-old friend my pal
Fluffy's got his buddy
On the porch
Penny she's my girlie
She sits here with me
On the porch
Penny looks so pretty
On the porch
Penny takes fluffy for a walk out on the path
Fluffy chases the other doggies on the path
But big sister penny kept fluffy back on the porch
So me and fluffy and penny where on the porch
