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 02:58
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 Deadman

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
