I’m a cute schizophrenic with acute schizophrenia Double check my broom closet just in case it’s Narnia (mr. tumnus?) With one eye on the pill bottle and the other on big Pharma Look out my windowsill at all these beautiful wegmanns Ask your doctor if you are nursing, pregnant, or may become pregnant Pandemonium for pandered moments to come All over my hands and pants and thumbs(disengaged listener “what?”) Check the weather charts and then pray for apocalypse So damn eager just to know what is coming next Do I meet with Peter or slip into nothingness SLIP I’ll givum… I’ll givvum my best happy face when I reach them pearly gates Smile for awhile til my teeth get tired, then I’ll weep for all of us I’ll give them my best happy face when I reach them pearly gates I dream of heaven or 7/11 webbing, ebbing flowing and knowing where the rowing boats are going… Gently down a dream to some stream where it seemed we were all getting cream in philadelphia(jeez!) Healthier, wealthier, wiser prizes I just try to get whatever I can Doing handstands for big man upstairs (Friend in full blown criticism mode) “up where?” (Shaky-handed pointing) “up there…hahaha….I semi-solemnly swear my prayers get answered like dancers entranced in fancier glands and pants with baby blue sequins on them CLOSE YOUR EYES, GO TO DREAMLAND, WAIT FOR AUTUMN

Flowermouths 03:32
feel my youth slip away like Gorbachev's grasp on the people I stopped smoking weed on the day it was legal I won’t roll with the roll tide...stay inside Wait for my tax returns, cuz oh how the money turns, stuck in taciturn, the tongue it sputters often. And the things that we thought we thought were wrong were now wronger(more wrong**) than we thought previously aforementioned Grandiose dreams that never end up, magniscope scheme that you can’t keep up Now and then, i pretend, i don’t know anyone Used to take pictures of the sky thinking it meant something. I believed in a greater good incoming. But four years and sixteen candles, one psych ward visit and a broken lighter smelling like andrew’s parents house, madden and golden eye, so long the simple life. Hello complicated lies and waving so long goodbyes, farewell auf wiedersehen Goodnight (to) Xanny bars, classic cars and girls with auburn attitudes UM The new era of digital scandal By the rivers of babylon we sat and wept The empire turns toxic a collective groan, a grieving severe daughter babylon, doomed to destruction A nativist prejudice Oh u dont see skin color? Yes the fuck u do..what about when a white cop kills a black man on the news? Sittin on the ottoman talkin bout the empire Acting normal, going insane out here on the physical plane. I heard Jesus contemplated violent revolution You were born as a prized possession in the spiderwebbed hands of destiny dancing... Salivating at the mouthpiece monument..we split tendrils like a Home cooked meal The rhinestone gem, the bitch of the obituary, the way west Chester used to seem to carry me, glide on its roads and float down her rivers, a handshake, a perfume and a shiver Quiet moments of solace in the choir room, inverted spectres of friendship in an august bloom, boom! goes the dynamite We’re still addicted to the things we didn’t wanna be addicted to How bout you?

Shimmy Shake 02:30
Long found friend Fell backwards face forwards and I can't seem to catch your hands, can't pull you up or out and I can't dance, but I know how to shimmy shake Pulsate To Rhythm, move a thousand ways yanno what I'm sayin? Lets mix brainwaves like cocktails Aqua cool oblivion That burning fuel lamp in sapphire You’re the golden one The goddamn golden one rather peach than plum, rather plum than an apple rather swap fables than some facts from Snapple Anti-up Annie sucks, the straw of its wherewithal Fall back-face-forward-spring-drifting endlessly I'll be birdwatching and burdening the bees With endless cliché semi-okay similes like 'To love is to radiate to hate is to decompose lazy angel marries an unholy Ghost but she wanted someone who talks as smooth as a saxophone' Singin' Is the past just passing by too fast it seems Fulfilling nothing forgetting all our dreams Too late to say goodbye and never leave a trace One more time i wanna see a smile on your face Long Found Friend fell backwards face forwards And I can’t seem to catch your hands Can’t pull you up or out I can’t dance but I know how to Shimmy Shake Pulsate to rhythm Move a thousand ways Long Found Friend fell backwards face forwards And I can’t seem to catch your hands Can’t pull you up or out I can’t dance but I know how to Shimmy Shake Pulsate to rhythm Move a thousand ways

Keanu! 02:41
Pauly's In the basement smoking all the evidence, I’m upon the pavement thinking about the Aliens, the Aliens are in the sky Thinking bout the humans I’m Losing my frame of reference In a picture perfect pretty painted pestilence I heard they got ya feeling downtrodden and depressed, Keanu Reeves on a parkbench... (some motivational speaker somewhere or me to the mirror in an attempt to gain digital age enlightenment in the face of isolation) Now when I say sex you say rubbing flesh!! Need one more planet so it can talk shit on us Just to feel unified with the one we’re on Just like in football when you favorite team wins Hope that will give me some sense of accomplishment Hahahahahaha isn’t that comedy? Laughing out loud with my Face in the paper feed Fill up my mental with consistent/constant stimulus What ever you do just keep me distracted !!! Sing along, you’re dumb if you don’t sing along. This dumb singalong, you’re dumb Cuz you sang along, you’re dumb Cuz you sang along, this dumb singalong YER GONNA MAKE IT KID! 6 feet underneath of it The cold hard earth, some sort of rebirth, one of these days you’ll float away

Lushed 03:38
I Drink Coffee I Daydream I Daydream And Dissosicate I Ride West For 45 Minutes. I Don’t Know Where I Am Today... So I Retrace The Retrace Flashback to Kickbacks she hates superhero movies Hahaha we had a good laugh Now We Practice passing time while watching time pass Someone call this kid an ambulance ! You wind up dead in an accident But it was meant to happen It’s One Day out then its one day in And the end of tunnel lights our blindingly Lush Just Trust Our eyes will adjust And it came to me like a lottery Some Wheel Of Fortune Dream.. Where it spelled out what we’re supposed to be On those spaces in the in between And I Was Ready And Willing But I Was Hardly able I Was A Manikin Figurine At Your Dining Room Table I’m The Anti Deceaser You’re The Giver Of Good Looks. The Great Deceiver The antihero in the comic books And I Walk Ten Miles But Still Find No Solace And That Voice In The Sky Sings Whatever We Want It To, Or At Least That’s What You said it had said to you So Light Another Candle Heres one For Molly Ringwald You know the future's that vandal it’ll be thieving all your thoughts Apples and cinnamon/and those paintings on the wall That mean something so much different now From what you originally intended them to You don’t know how to look at them do you? just trust our eyes will adjust Nice and (lushed,lushed)
