Until they're fondling little girls.
Nobody knows what they want
Until they finally let it all go.

Something, something!
God, it's Sunday. Do hair!
Condescending.
Not intending to end.
They took pictures of my brain.
They took pictures of our dreams.
They took pictures of our crash.
They took pictures of our dreams.
They took pictures of our drapes.

I'd sooner take my life away than live with Lucy Liu
I'd sooner take my life away than live with losing you
And still I put shoes on.
And still life pushes on.
I've painted my own Mona Lisa
Cheese sticks everyday.
I've painted my own Mona Lisa
She's fixed everything.
Just to fathom means to mend
Justify the means to an end

Son, gun shot my way
May killing waters bury on my grave
Wind carry me home
The fabric of reality is tearing apart
The piece of me that died will return
To live again
Sun come shine my way
May healing waters bury all my pain
Wind carry me home
The fabric of reality is tearing apart
The piece of me that died will return
To live again
"Build Me Up, Break Me Down"
You crave my erotic behaviour
You crave my erratic behaviour
And you ask me why my hair's green.

You drop the bone, I pick up the slack

You drop the ball, I pick up the slack
And you ask me why my hair's gray

And my sons not so bright
And my suns not so bright

There's been no brighter star to guide me.
I met an older man
He seemed to be alone
I felt that I could trust him
He touched me that night.
I met an older man
He seemed to be alone
I felt that I could trust him
He talked to me that night.
A conga line comes into view.
A blinding light comes into view.
How longer, desire
No longer, torn in two
"Forsaken"
Forsaken, I have cum for you tonight.
Forsaken, I have come for you tonight.
"Forsaken"
Give your cellphone to me
Give yourself up to me
"Forsaken"
She saw Flea whisper in my ear
She softly whispered in my ear
Once you're stoned
You're crawling under.
Once the stone
You're crawling under.
"Home"
Her story-it holds the key
Unlocking dreams from my mamary.
Her story-it holds the key
Unlocking dreams from my memory.
Shove the mystic power struggle and don't let it show.
It's so easy to run away with nothing in tow.
"I Walk Beside You" (MP3)
Rest your tired butt upon my hands
Rest your tired thoughts upon my hand
Some will trance and smooth their nails
Some will transcend spinning years
I wanna talk about life on the streets
You can tell your step father I said so.
I wanna talk about lifelong mistakes
And you can tell your stepfather I said so.
I wanna tell you about life in the States
And you can tell your stepfather also.
I wanna talk about lifelong mistakes
And you can tell your stepfather I said so.
Kiss the boys and make them wear it.
Kiss the boys and make them wary.
You tell me 'bout your Tutankhamun
But once it just enough for me.
You tell me 'bout your two more coming
But once is just enough for me.

Death is the first dance eternal

Side effects of beer,
As my conscience slips away
Side effects appear
As my conscience slips away
Yeah! I've heard it! and it fits with Mike Portnoy!

Clowns row by and I row with them
Lost in the sky
Clouds roll by and I roll with them

Thought disorder!
I feel elated, I feel depressed
Like a scream before the silence
Like a scream, but sort of silent
Like ice cream but sort of silent.
Like a scream but sort of silent.
