Resting for once
In the diner on the corner
Half finished cup in my hand
Late morning sun
Tells me don’t predict the weather
Think I’ll feel good for a change
Oh messy way
Please come and find me
I’m finished with the elevator smile
Always on the books
And too many dirty looks
I think I’ll talk to you for a while
Lingering dreams of
Last night’s conversation
Catching a sun flare in my eye
My fraying dress hem
Is witness to the method
Think I’ll feel good for a change

Average Lunatic (May 2)
01:17
|
|||
|
Dressing up for staying in
Waltzing ‘cross apartment
Just your average modern cosmo lunatic
Found a new plant on the stair
Well how long has that been there
Possibly yeah you know me a lunatic
Maybe it seems
These are just dreams
Everyone knows
It’s not how it goes
Hugging trees and skipping stones
Sipping tea with the Ramones
Just your average modern cosmo lunatic

I’m gonna dance with you
I’m gonna dance too
My table is set for two
My table is set for you
Come to my room
Come to my room
Can you see it
The candle is lit
If you wonder
Yes you can
We can be barefoot til dawn
I want to
Dance with you
You can tease me
Bring your dancing toes
When you visit me
We see the sun rise
Your left foot is on my side
Two left feet to work with
Not gonna stop you
Got me to dance too
|
||||
4. |
||||
|
Speak free
Hear and see
Feels good
To be understood
It’s in the bones
Feel it so
It’s in the blood
Let it show
Sky is blue
And bluebirds too
It’s only true this way
Breathe sweet
Don’t go to sleep
Sounds nice
It’s alright

Light On (May 5)
00:50
|
|||
|
Moving grains of sand with a tweezer tool
All damn day, you call that work?
Haunted in the brighttime
My best comes out at nighttime
I like to sleep with the light on
I can haunt
I can breeze
I can kiss my squeeze
I can sing
I can yell
I can ring his bell
I can prowl
I can pounce
Yeah The Man’s on the outs
I like to sleep with the light on
Even in sleep
I run circles round jerks
After hours shimmy shake
Keeps me from the lurkers
You know what’s good for you
Squint your eyes and try it too
I like to sleep with the light on

Smile (May 6)

|
|||
|
If you’re feelin low
Got a heavy load
Just throw your shoes
You can be the news
You been cryin all day
But it’s time to say
I’m done
With this scum
Don’t ask questions
Flash a smile
Birthday suit’s
Always in style
Roll up loud
And stay a while
Feet in the sand and
Jump into the drink

The sea is speaking
Do you know
The water wants to help us
Million years
So long ago
The sea can see the answers
Change the question
You will find
A guardian attentive
An oasis
In your mind
Spirit of the waters
Rest light achy children
Put aside your fears
Listen to the singing
That’s been there for years
Never ending gardens
Bright anemones
When you hear the invite
From the spirit of the sea
|

The News (May 10)
01:44
|
|||
|
I saw the news
They’re speaking truths
They said a black hole is singing
Mmmm mm
And it’s no wonder
It sounds like thunder
Maybe it’s easy to make lightning
All we know
Is what shows
I heard the news
Whispering clues
They said a black hole was singing
Mmmm mm

Flowering Trees (May 11)
01:45
|
|||
|
A flower goes behind the ear
Near the whispering willows
Hold my hand and call me dear
Gazing as the sky goes
Waking dream
Call to me
Slumber talk
Set me free
Muskrat swims and
Robin sees
Under the flowering trees
Pleasure is the sideways sun
Dancing on its way down
Nothing worries when among
Fields of dandelions
Lick the spoon
Spill the tea
Hum a tune
Song so sweet
Me and you
Walking we
Under the flowering trees

Rebel (May 13)
00:57
|
|||
|
Pythagoras said that the earth was round
How dare he
Disgraced doc Harvey said blood is pumped through the heart
Sacrelige, sacre coeur
Wright brothers ridiculed for thinking a machine could fly
Vesalius anatomy, a heretic
Flesh and bones, imagine that
Just a little shift in the point of view
Don’t go thinking things someone told you to
If you wanna fly
Then you gotta fly like a rebel
Galileo put in prison cuz the earth goes round the sun
If you wanna fly
Then you gotta fly like a rebel

Books are nice but I’m feeling spicy
I got lyrics pouring outta my head They call for quiet but I’m makin a riot Making noise at the library
I like to
Write songs
How can it be wrong
Don’t wanna shh shh the noise down I’m gonna
Clang clang
You can sing along
I’m making noise at the library

Loon Eclipse (May 15)
01:26
|
|||
|
A loon call tells us
The moon is listening
We hear the eerie
Sound it’s singing
Dusky laughter
Mirror water
Lets the moon know
Just what’s happening
Oh carry me home
The whiskey’s still up wishing
My silhouette is laughing
These tears are not from yawning
Through the reeds and
Up for air
Silent smile
Eye is wild
Shadow travels
So demure
Looks as though
The moon is winking

Ocean Eyes (May 16)
00:34
|
|||
|
Meet me out by the water
Twilight sees us dancing
Respite times
Respite measures
Rage against the din
Fire light
Ocean eyes
Fill the glasses
Smoking oysters with the stars
Take me again
|

Lips (May 17)

|
|||
|
Every kiss with you is like a
First kiss
Yeah you’re a
First kiss
Yeah it’s a
First kiss
Every time we kiss it’s like a
First kiss
You got my
First lips
Yeah it’s a
Total trip
When you touch me
I could scream
Oh please hug me
Lean into me
Lean into me
Lean into meeeeee

Spooky Action (May 18)
01:28
|
|||
|
Oh excite my electrons
From way over there
We seem to be entangled
Invisible hairs
And if string theory talks
On a cup telephone
Then your word rocks
Me all the way home
Cuz Einstein’s talkin bout
Talkin bout
Talkin bout
Spooky action at a distance
I’m like walkin round
Walkin round
Walkin round
Spooky action at a distance
Like little ghosties
Spooking round
Givin me the goosebumps
Without a sound
Rufflin my feathers
Ooh la la
Raising the hairs
Time space continuum
|

They seem to know
Which direction to go
When everyone’s yelling in chaos
Sitting there sweet
There’s so much to see
Never are they at a loss
The listening flowers grow
Along as the drama unfolds
Ask them to share
They are quite aware
And their secrets they wear like clothes
Just lean in near
If you need a seer
Nothing gets by them at all
They’ve got the news
About who threw the shoes
And when passes through the next squall
They might seem silent
But they know the whilings
That’s cause they talk to the ravens
If you make friends
You’ll see in the end
They want to show us the ways

Between Sleeps (May 20)

Vision blurs
Between sleeps
Comfort dark
Swims in rhythm
Between sleeps
Murmur with you
Weaving in the fold

Hideous Fish (May 22)
00:38
|
|||
|
There’s a place for
The hideous fish
In the sand between the corals
It smokes a cigarette
And cowers over a coffee
Folding a napkin
Forking a pie
Scowling at reason
Don’t dare ask why
Googly eyes and
Fangs run amok
Good luck to the hideous fish

Burning Doilies (May 24)
01:03
|
|||
|
Burning doilies
For a special cause
Try to cross them and
You’ll meet their claws
Oh great grand nannies
Aren’t afraid
Oh punkest vandals
Ever made
Burning doilies
And we can’t go back
Nevermind the bridges
Were attacked
Oh great grand nannies
Hum a song
Oh setting fire to
Years of wrong

Well, I’m a fool for you
Restless in my room
I’m a city calling out
Just like everyone
I’m a goon

Le Monde (May 27)
01:29
|
|||
|
I don’t care if they have no eyes
If their ears are stuffed with glue
Take a long walk on a short pier
Take a hike to the next room
I am busy I am cruising
I have things I need to do
Got a motive on my tongue
Le monde pour mon monsieur

Beautiful Day (May 28)

Hey!

Fuck you!

Heeeyeeeeaaayyyy
What!
Hey get up!
It’s a fucking beautiful day
Daaaeeeaayyyy
Gonna yell about it
Can’t you hear
Gonna tear it up and down the walls
It’s right here falling down the stairs
Not gonna find it out on mars
It’s a beautiful fucking dayyyyy

Break The Jinx (May 29)
01:14
|
|||
|
Take it up under hailstones
The hand of a thief
And tearing the mood up
The wind in the streets
A wink in the eye
And down comes the sky
How we gonna break the jinx
The sun isn’t shy
When we’re in at work
But oh me oh my
So cute in that shirt
Hey now all the storm clouds
Show up at once
Yeah we gotta break the jinx
Kind of as if
The zombies have it out for us
Kind of a mess
And now the moon is coming up
It’s magnetic
Fire the gatekeep
On the wire it’s a
Conference of the doves
|
||||
30. |
||||
|
La la la
When I’m around him
Suddenly the
Breaks don’t work
Tryna keep my
Good composure
La la la la
Breaks don’t work
Automobile
Is in gear
Drive me wild
Oh so near
Stepping to
Four on the floor
And the breaks don’t work no more
|
||||
31. |
||||
|
Pistachio you, pistachio me
All the clouds dance in the breeze
Umbrella one, umbrella tree
The seaside sings with you and me
Oh lob a cherry in a cup
Sip a sherry, you’re in luck
Wink at a monkey, bottoms up
That’s so funny, tippy top
