I MADE A PACT WITH AMY
i made a pact with amy but she packed me for a ride
got caught a little lazy let my fly too loosely slide
i hooked on to the damage and weighed anchor with high tide
but now i’m feeling better for a while
but now i’m feeling better for a while
i thought she would be crazy but she thought like suicide
her eyes hung tunneled heavy with huge tears too hard to hide
four hours for every second didn’t think she would subside
but now i’m feeling better for a while
but now i’m feeling better for a while
i defend my dentist lady by the tooth holes in her smile
in mind a bee keeps honey to look forward to the hive
much more than probably maybe in my eyes most likely blind
but now i’m feeling better for a while
but now i’m feeling better for a while

how many votes and how many boats and how many people are we gonna leave a float out on the seas of what we used to believe oh how much more time does it take us to change our minds
how many times can they get away a crook did they make ya take a dip down into the frozen brook how many times will it take you to change your minds oh how much more time will it take ya ta change yer mind
how many junks and how many punks are we gonna let them get the best of what we was
oh how many times does it take ya ta change yer minds how much more time gonna take ya to change yer mind
how many cars and how many scars did we scratch up all the doors with the keys to keep on going oh how many times does it take us to change our minds X3atleast

ON THE MOON
i found my-self here on the-moon with-nothing left to-do
la-menting the re-gret for-all the things i-never-do
and never will be done and wondering in the end if all would be the same - this is just who i am
i found my-self here on the sun not knowing if i won
would things be better then or whether when it’s done that things would be the same - this is just who i am
i find myself here in this room with nothing left to do
but sit and count the dew drops dripping from the roof
there is no one to blame - this is just who i am

DOWN DOWN DOWN
AA DD cross over towards E
the right is right from where you are out lying with the flies
you can’t see (it) don’t make much sense, it’s right before yur eyes
and maybe it has always been that one thing i see wrong
that’s right up in the air is in the end up to the law(yer)
this law that gets so bent becomes the bars through which we’ll
crawl
lallalalallalallalallalalallalalalalala
this law that gets so bent becomes the bars through which we’ll
crawl
i wonder where you are tonight
i’m crying in my milk
my tears taste just like lemon juice
they drip out all i’ve felt
about the way we both well knew
good ends are for good health
delivery me my destiny
it’s too soon still to tell
lallalalallalallalallalalallalalalalala
delivery me my destiny
it’s too soon still to tell

NEVER FOUND THE PERSON TO LOVE ENOUGH
NEVER FOUND THE PERSON TO LOVE ENOUGH
BUT IT’S ENOUGH TO LOVE MYSELF FOR THE BOTH OF US
NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR ANY LESS - THE WORLD’S TOUGH TO LOVE ALONE
IF YA LOOK TO SEE WHAT’S IN FRONT OF US MORE OF THE SAME cold diamonds still holding in the rough
BUT IF YOU CAN GET YOUR WAY THROUGH THE DUST - YOU’LL SEE TO WHERE I WAIT FOR YOU

SUDDENLY IT ALL MAKES SENSE
I SAW YA SHAKE IT ON A MONDAY MORNING
I SAW YA NAKED IN A BAD LIT MOOD/i saw ya fake it with a hint/pinch of weakness
(i)STRETCHED that BLANKET SO I WOULDN’T FEEL HELPLESS
YOU TOOK MY HAND, we marched STRAIGHT UP TO your ROOM
SO now - all the memories i gotah you are sex u al
you keep going - cold nights are never dull
my mind wonders to where you’re wandering now
i think of you and remembering you i smile
I SAW YA TAKE IT WITH A SPOON OF SUGAR
SAW YA RISK IT BUT IT ALL FELL through/true
i guess you wish it would have turned out different
but guessing games are only easy for the fool
i’d hoped to see ya at our school reunion
i’d hoped ta greet ya with an opened/apple eye/
(i’d hoped ta meetcha there so see you soon)
i didn’t see ya there among the many
familiar faces from troubled times gone by
SO now - all the memories i gotah you are sex u al
you keep going - cold nights are never dull
my mind wonders to where you’re wandering now
i think of you and remembering you i smile
so now all the memories i have of you a re sexual
you make me crazy cold nights R never dull
i’m feeling lazy like i’m sleeping in a dream
i dream of you - and remembering, i smile

IN THE BEGINNING
i wish things were simple, things were more like this, then the new kids come in, it all gets inane
we all go more insane to the end - til the light dies out
something about what a dog once told me, we all on, we all must drink the poison from this
well with no resolve
i think that if we can’t breathe the air than maybe we should be the one gets put to death i think that
if we(can) breathe the air were gonna find a place to share and if you breathe the air with me i’ll be
free
so let me be let me do just what i want ta do - i don’t need ya bugging me
i only want to fly and be the wise guy - (i) don’t want to try - not too much anyway
i want to be free to be lazy - to be hungry - to be shy to be wondering why all these people are
always getting on me getting on me - trying to make me be somebody they suppose me to be

COME RIDE ON MY SAILBOAT
come ride in my sailboat - come tug on my sails
you’re wrapped in my raincoat - sure weather prevails - umhummm
come ride on my sailboat - come ride at high seas
take my hand we’ll sail together in my dreams
come ride on my sailboat - i’ll sail you safely to shore
saving all the sea shells from deaf oil war(orwell) lords
come ride on my sailboat - come ride in my dreams
my hand be your lifeboat - my heart beats on steam -umhummm
you wake me up baby - when i’m sleeping in
you shake me - ya save me
you help me to plough, through all these paper rules
you help me to feel - a little less blue, a little less blue, a little less blue
come ride in my sailboat - come sail in my dreams
with me, with me
you help me to feel - a little less blue, a little less blue, a little less blue

the tortoise and my hair Guelph, Ontario
diary of a decomposing dog
this diary on this scary day is one of warmth again and
play i am not going to say what my feeling really is in fact it’s just a lark that i have any at all no one’s left to listen, no one ever has, my bed’s been made un-wizened so been judged to be the best, but somehow just one wrinkle in my head is always left.
