STUPID DANIEL Stupid Daniel looking at the sun, you’re gonna burn your eyes out boy Stupid Daniel look at how he runs, with his arms out like a girl La la la Stupid Daniel standing in the rain watching all the puddles grow Stupid Daniel whatcha thinking of, maybe you could walk on water We wanna know what we wanna know, and we wanna see what we wanna see, and we want to go where we want to go but it’s not up to you or me Stupid Daniel head is in the clouds, you’re dreaming all of your life away Stupid Daniel always by himself never says a word out loud We wanna know what we wanna know, and we wanna see what we wanna see, and we want to go where we want to go but it’s not up to you or me and we wanna do what we wanna do and we wanna fly but we cannot fly and we wanna try almost everything under the sky Stupid Daniel looking at the sun, he knows more than anyone

PIGGYBACK RIDE I’m gonna give her a piggyback ride over to the other side of this world…of this world I’m gonna get abs of steel, twice a week and then she will be all mine for all time And she’ll say I’m in love with a beautiful man that I don’t hardly understand at all I’m gonna win a million bucks and drive it in a monster truck to her house…over to her place I’m gonna be all I can be like the army man on my TV you better believe it And she’ll say I’m in love with a beautiful man that I can’t hardly understand at all Is this the best that you’ve got she’ll say But I’m in love with a beautiful girl means more to me than all the world you know I’m gonna bake a super pill for her to take and then she will trade my heart for her heart And she’ll say I’m in love with a beautiful man that I can’t hardly understand at all Is this the best that you’ve got she’ll say But I’m in love with a beautiful girl means more to me than all the world you know

DEALER PLATES She’s got dealer plates in her window a 38 in her handbag, unfortunately for him this will be the end It’s been two bad years, seven horrible months, eighteen unbearable days and nine hours too long She’s got dealer plates in her window a 38 on the front seat unfortunately for him this will be the end The world is bright and clean and bruised up like anything she can hardly leave the house at all She will put 1000 pounds of goodbyes between them and there will never be and ever again She’s got dealer plates on her window a 38 in her right hand, unfortunately for him this will be the end Somebody call the cops He can’t get the bleeding to stop He’s done such a terrible thing She’s done such an awful thing

Like a Boy 03:17
LIKE A BOY I saw you looking at me I was looking at you too Is there somewhere we could go where we could be alone You are a butterfly and I am a butterfly and we are two butterflies just hanging in the summer wind What did you say to me I thought I heard you say something to me…but maybe I was wrong And if I can I will be yours for all time Why do we do this to ourselves when I love you so damn much and you love me so damn much What can your father do I hate it when he treats me like a boy

Dope Wings 03:26
DOPE WINGS I was driving through the desert with my 40 on the floor I didn’t have a clue what I was driving for but I just had to get there and I had to get there fast nothing else would satisfy I was zooming through the ocean with my pedal to the floor, the anchor was inside the boat jack. It doesn’t really matter where you is or was before as long as you got a way to get back I’ll be burning up in heaven with these dope wings on my back It don’t really matter what they have down here cause I’ll be like flash Gordon in the atmosphere. Giving all the planets a little shove, and wearing a space helmet like a beetle bug If you got a hundred I got 50 more, we’ll wish upon the sky like it’s an open door and you can have whatever you want or need You look at me like I was 3 and I belong in your arms The only one I wanna see more you never got to me before but I never wanna see you leave my side again

Belly Up 04:00
BELLY UP It’s another year I’m ready to get up again newer than I’ve ever been before What a stupid joke to make believe you have control belly up against the deep dark sky…oh why It’s another year and feeling like I do again I don’t know if I can pretend In the future or that anything will ever be ever be, ever be so bright…I might Anyway it’s ok, it’s ok

Invisible 03:46
INVISIBLE The shattered pieces of my soul collide with nothing whole there’s nothing out here to break anybodys fall. So I move through this emptiness putting motion to the test and looking for the meaning of it all, reality dissolves. And I’m invisible tonight doing what I can to feel like I’m alive I trace my heroes one by one stamped in patterns I become the likenesses of everyone I see. Still it always comes to trading up without a thought of what it does to who you are or who you used to be. I see everyone but me Cause I’m invisible tonight and anyone can see there’s nothing left to hide I’m invisible tonight and you won’t notice when I’m gone, I’ve been in this place too long She came to me on angels wings she touched my heart to set me free, a vision laid along a life long curse. Still I wound up alone again somehow and I’m wondering who she’s touching now. Visions are all I have left of her and I can’t decide what’s worse a heart of stone or a love that burns Invisible tonight what I would not give to have her by my side I’m invisible tonight and you won’t notice when I’m gone, I’ve been in this place too long

Supergrey 03:30
SUPERGREY The evidence is in and it’s going my way now From super screwed up to kinda ok now You can’t touch a four-alarm man with the dashing looks and coca puff tan It’s a perfect day for us to play the sun is gone it’s super gray x2 There’s super skinny people riding super skinny horses And thousands of ships will be blown off courses The golden child has come up lame in the presence of the man who knows no shame It’s a perfect day for us to play the sun is gone it’s super gray x2 There’s a sign in the sky and it’s pointing right at me now It say’s the arrows from the sparrows will be falling at my feet now A plastic pope, a jellybean, a fleet of honest submarines It’s a perfect day for us to play the sun is gone it’s super gray x6

Sleepy 03:18
SLEEPY Rosey didn’t lie the equipment was dry it blew up in her eye and she got sleepy She’s floating on a cloud of zzz’s Buzzing like a basket full of motorcycle bees But she’s wideawake in her own dreams where she is never sleepy The race was going well not a saviors chance in hell he could lose unless he fell or just got sleepy He’s running down a train of zzz’s Chugging like a basket full of motorcycle bees But he’s wideawake in his own dream where she is never sleepy The kids have finally grown my wife god rest her soul my life is now my own but I’m so sleepy I’m holding on to all my dreams Buzzing like a basket full of motorcycle bees Where everything is made for me and I am never sleepy

BARNABY JONZE I got the TV Barnaby Jonze Glassy-eyed pigeon boned It’s too late foe me to fight I’m mesmerized I saw the monster over japan Heavy feet, clumsy hands Showing off with his breath It smelled like death I let the blue light into my room A quarter past half past June And I may never escape I’ve seen my fate I got the TV Barnaby Jonze Glassy-eyed pigeon boned It’s too late foe me to fight I’m crystallized The collector coin and the knife attack he lost that weight but it all came back gonna get rich quick get rich quicker put a quicken on my ticker then I get some liquor I know what you’re thinking I know what you thought your heart is pounding like a tick tick tock said I was a ghost but you always wanna doubt me the day my sweater showed up without me I’m vaporized
12.
Bluebird 02:14
BLUEBIRD Bluebird there in the tree tops lost in a daydream, a longing a craving Bluebird you never stop singing and words can’t express what a song without them does Don’t be afraid of anything Bluebird the sky is the limit so fight while you’re in it for flame or reward Pick up your sword Pick up your sword
