Maxine, Maxine

She's talking back to me
I turn the other way
I calculated three
Hours 'til we'd be ok
A lighter went awry
Brainstorming turned to white
Typewriters in the night
I think that we are losing sight
You can rest assured
That's what they said
I'm sick of all those lies
That they buried in your head
Piss me off tonight
You'll get the final word
I’ll storm out of the room
While you give me the bird
Baby titillating
Drinking down and dirty dating
Kiss to copulating, waiting
Whiskey dick is so deflating
Maxine, Maxine
I feel like breaking up
Maxine, Maxine
I feel like breaking
There's a hole in the sky
The pieces don't fit
The colors all a mesh
Like a reddened cigarette
I'm chomping on my nuts
And looking at the screen
Greet the elevation
Looking in a magazine
The vacant light is on
I think the time is right
It ain't against the law
To get jiggy on this flight
Compressing ligaments
Your flesh will turn to wire
Burn and come alive
Like a phoenix from the fire
Airplane made of glass
Howling when I flirt
The birds about to crash
Told her that it wouldn't hurt
Maxine, Maxine
I feel like breaking up
Maxine, Maxine
I feel like breaking
I'm pulling on your bra
And gasping for some air
Look at the ghosts around
Let 'em know they're really there
Let me read you prose
I read between the lines
You took off all your clothes
While the VHS rewinds
You're slick like a snake
I'm tough like a bear
You stole my gravity
Now I'm floating through the air
I'm grabbing on your leg
And then your inner thigh
You push my hand away
Tell me I'm a sleazy guy
But I buttered up your bread
I put you in disguise
I took you for meal
On the Star Trek Enterprise
Maxine, Maxine
I feel like breaking up
Maxine, Maxine
I feel like breaking up
Maxine, Maxine
I feel like breaking up
Maxine, Maxine
I feel like breaking

Deadman

I’m so scared of being open
I’m scared that if I show my wounds
You’ll use my fears against me
And none of my stupid dreams will ever, ever come true
I don’t want to ask for favors
No one likes to be ignored
I like to read these days
Even when I never turn the page
I’ll read too much into how you say goodbye
Say goodbye
I’m so sorry I was never good at hanging out
I’m too restless and my thoughts are starting to get loud
But I can dance a lonely dance underneath a bright stage
Please don’t be mad if I seem to push you a little bit away
(So far away)
So wait for me, wait for me, wait for me
At the bottom of the sea
Waiting for me
I’ll get down on one knee
I can be, I can be, I can be
I don’t wanna eat
Nothing Christmas Eve will be open
Under my clothes is nervous heat
Oooooooh, you know you're gonna be
Ohhhhhhh, you know you're gonna be
A deadman
Deadman
Deadman

Take It and Run
05:27

Well I’ve been lucky, for quite some time
Maybe because, the devil is a long lost friend of mine
Maybe ‘cause I eat my greens and get my fill of vitamin D
Either one is fine with me
Any day now
And I won’t know why
The powers that be are gonna take the skin right off my hide
In a world that’s so hostile and filled with tigers and crocodiles
We get bit once in a while
When life gets good and the gettin’ is easy
Run like hell baby, don’t feel guilty
‘Cause it ain’t gonna last forever
You’re a fool if you think you’ll never
Get—yours
Mm-hmm
So love it all right now, cause it’ll all turn upside down eventually
One day I’ll have a head of white hair
Reminiscing, swinging back and forth in a rocking chair
Had some good times, had some bad, nothing quite went like I planned
These things I’ll just never understand
So do away with your demands
Just write it out the best you can
When life gets good and the gettin’ is easy
Run like hell baby, don’t feel guilty
‘Cause it ain’t gonna last forever
You’re a fool if you think you’ll never
Get—yours
Mm-hmm-mm-mm-mm-mm
So love it all right now, cause it’ll all turn upside down eventually
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh, Oooh, Ooh-oooh
When life gets good and the gettin’ is easy
Run like hell baby, don’t feel guilty
‘Cause it ain’t gonna last forever
You’re a fool if you think you’ll never
Get—you’re gonna get yours
(You better run baby ‘cause it’s comin’)
So love it all right now, cause it’ll all turn upside down
Yes, it’ll all turn upside down eventually

Bad Place
03:34

I—I’m in a bad place
I’ve been in over, over my head
And I—I tried to warn you
I tried to warn you, like every day
I tried to warn you, that I’m not ok
Don’t try and make excuses at me
My patience ain’t lasting more than a week
You’ve, got lots of nerve
When I draw closer you swerve
I reach out but my words drift off into space
You stay quiet and it’s really just a slap in my face
(Hey!)
It’s easy, I can behave, no I can’t behave
Mama told me, sonny be brave, boy sonny be brave
But I’ll be laying down in my grave
Anytime
(Get it baby!)
So don’t come any closer
(I’ve got a bite that you won’t believe)
Best not take my number down
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
I want you, but you don’t want me back
You’re afraid to be calling me
But I won’t attack
If I could, I’d clear the air
But truth be told, I’m really just scared
And I’m running out of ways to make us a pair
