fat ginny full lips parted. talks like a lover now. a played back echo dying. we all get wanted in the end. fat ginny her robes parted. they're gonna close the whole damn town. close that fucker down. fat ginny her robes parted. modern man will leave you broken hearted. modern man he gonna dress you down. fat ginny her robes parted. modern man he gonna let you down. modern man as a lover parted. fat ginny the old worlds pardon. modern man he gonna do you proud, show those fuckers how. fat ginny her robes parted. a played back echo dying. we all get wanted in the end. fat ginny her robes parted. modern man he done the old world proud modern man will leave you broken hearted...

I'm just sick about dirty ways. I'm just sick about your victims game. I'm so sick I wanna break his face. I'm so sick I wanna turn away. I'm so sick I wanna turn away. I'm praying it just aint today. that checkout time is late or the eloped have withered. maybe even parted. but it just don't matter. he'll never take my precious place. the look of horror on your face. that faithful sorrow on a beauty I've been counting on...

bad dreams and hardened minds. was I even there? bad news and fine art. was I even there? she is safely tied. daddy still despises her lazy songs and her shitty band. the endless sleuth and her highness. I'll wager it is cautioned where there is woman. virtue summons desperate airs. or was I even there. she is vain and trite. but daddy still desires her phoned in bones and her pretty hands, her faded youth and her highness. and I'll wager it is cautioned where there is woman. virtue summons desperate airs. she is wasted time. daddy still desires the lonesome drone of a sycophant. the changing tune of a siren...

Swing Low 02:37
her abandon saw egos shatter. tiny men dissolved in their sleep. but I know the empty charms. I've drained a thousand lines. I played a lover wronged. I payed to watch him die. sew up your shop worn eyes. why not pretend that you've tried the other side of swing low. fall back on odious times. sew up your shop worn eyes. why not defend your resign to hard outlines of confounding forms, the stuff of liars. the same whore patronized, solemnly climbed...

well I ain't no prize but I walk with my tits out. I got my price she caught my eyes sir. she caught it well. she found her way and she weighed it well. she tore an ulcer the size of a mile-end. I'd take a dive but I know her well sir. she's not her tiny self. eye on the prize and a foot in mouth. I'm not her kind but I serve her well sir. she caught my eye. she caught my eye sir. she caught it well. she found her game and she played it well. shooting at vultures cause angels guide them…

why hide when the talkie sighs. they'll never take this dog alive. I wanna pee up an escalator. prime time to be fine. what now of the worried sound that used to talk this talkie down. I wanna pee up an escalator. prime time to be fine. though bitter acts sustain us now, love won't bring our bodies back. or hold it's own while she's around. one last joke while she's around silhouettes don't phase my france, and love won't bring out bodies back. high tide got me hot inside. drowning man got a one track mind. a walking dream on a respirator. prime time to be fine…

oh how was it the halo around your head or your devil hiss that made you spread our dirty name. I would have sided with you. had I not lived in you. had I not died for two. had I not been there when you took your holiday and out last dream away, it was not mine to save. gentlemen you may stand down…

meantime bride meantime bride. raise your legs. don't ask why. we don't talk. others do. good words hide from you, meantime bride. (gin is not a disinfectant). it's a man or a home. eeee aw. tell me something dumb, I am ready to become all the wiser…

when venus comes she'll carve her name where rabbits run through rotted stumps of former trees. where injuns stood on dirt and wood. where the leaves recoil back into the ground. and water gets hard as caves collect the bears. when venus comes I will be spared…

(I'm tired too) a bend of night in frozen corn took me right out the outside go me gone. and when I arrived, the corn had thawed. got good fine maybe this time maybe get it done. I went back in time to shut you down. thinly disguised in shining armour like the others by the harbour where we met. it was funny but the humour was dry. little china won you love. we were handsome, the humour was dry. wah wah wah wah wah wah wah…

Hard Times 02:27
bravery did I grapple with a big plan. only use the brandy when it's time. bleed out the night or snub it like a fog. always look your lover in the eye. moody student soon a groom and captain. married to a woman enterprise. evolved out of blue balls into homotone. that shit is how and you know it. bad pone gah te huh. your sin is all that moves at your side. ah lee ih syyy. cah cah cah cah cah c-c cah cah cah. yeoman yeoman I got somethin goin'. even found the echo in you thighs. bleed out the night or snub it like a star. always look your lover in the eye. be it hard times, later could not save her…

Homewrecker 02:46
stretching in the sun I saw what maybe was a twisting cat in the sand. I caught her tail between my hands. rubbed it raw as she brushed her glands across a rock. a ship went by, I waved the tail the seamen shook their sails and pointed to a cave. there we shot our load in an ancient stance. fortified that hole. made that good wood stand up and say hello to the proud light. where all dogs go when the eyes go blind. where the bitch don't miss what the bitch can't find. it's a sad thing when you known what is and you don't what ain't. you never get the time back. the ugly night come alive with homewrecker and I only one kiss away from alone. shall we pick some flowers, intimating gentler sorts? in an ancient stance, nature take your course. let the good wine flow…

Cockfight 03:51
leave a tire by the window. if it's over it'll say so. hit the bus stop, out like a hangnail. leaking bad information, down with the uptown crowd. that woman, I love her like a sister. it was always over. this mister knows her like a brother. in her fuck-me shoes or her farm rags, rooster squires lock their eyes. cockfight. send a wire via dreamboat. if it's over have her say so. hit the postbox, bunk is the bad mail. leaking bad information, down with the uptown crowd. that mister, he hovers like a blister she wandered under. puts in his fever while she slumbers. been sometime since her last rag. a spate of spiders swells inside her. cockfight…
