1. Midlife Crisis

Go on and wring my neck
Like when a rag gets wet
A little discipline
For my pet genius

My head is like lettuce
Go on dig your thumbs in
I cannot stop giving
I'm thirty-something

Sense of security
Like pockets jingling
Midlife crisis
Suck ingenuity

Down through the family tree
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you
Your menstruating heart

It ain't bleedin' enough for two
It's a midlife crisis...
What an inheritance
The salt and the kleenex

Morbid self attention
Bending my pinky back
A little discipline
A donor by habit

A little discipline
Rent an opinion
Sense of security
Holding blunt instrument

I'm a perfectionist
And perfect is a skinned knee
You're perfect, yes, it's true
But without me you're only you

Your menstruating heart
It ain't bleedin' enough for two
It's a midlife crisis…




2. Epic

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass

It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet

You want it all but you can't have it
It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it

Then you bare it and you tear it
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin

It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame

You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?...




3. Falling to Pieces

Back and forth, I sway with the wind
Resolution slips away again
Right through my fingers, back into my heart
Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark

Sometimes I think I'm blind
Or I may be just paralyzed
Because the plot thickens every day
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away

But I know, there's a picture beneath
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens...
Because I'm somewhere in between

My love and my agony
You see, I'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together

Layin' face down on the ground
My fingers in my ears to block the sound
My eyes shut tight to avoid the sight
Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight

Droplets of "yes" and "no"
In an ocean of "maybe"
From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline
From the top, another downhill slope of mine

But I know, the equilibrium's there
Indecision clouds my vision
No one listens
Because I'm somewhere in between

My love and my agony
You see, I'm somewhere in between
My life is falling to pieces
Somebody put me together




4. Anne's Song

"HEY!" WHAT?? "Oh nothing, just wondering why it is you're doing that whatever it is you're doing.

"Oh yeah, why?" I dunno it just doesn't seem like something you'd be doing that's all you of all
people, know what I mean?

"Yeah I know it's been bugging you since the day I was born, huh? I asked my friend Anne about it. I said, 'Anne, Anne, Anne, what am I supposed to do, it's been bugging them since the day that I was born.

She said 'Do whatever the hell you want
to do!
Now is the time to do whatever you want, and it will still turn out great. You've got the world at your feet.'"

I never claimed to be different, I only said I was bored and she's tired of your uniqueness, it sends her over head first then the rest of her follows, the breath of life, it never left her hollow...

I can do everything, she said, she said with a smile.
And I can go anywhere tonight, cause I'm with Anne.

Anne, Anne, Who? Anne Dagnabit Island princess queen with the juice.
What's this? I see she brought her whole uplown contingent.

First there's Jon E., he always loves a party, he's followed by Vinnie, who's feelin' kinda skinny, he says "Hey Anne I'm starved what you got to eat, she says:

"Vinnie you're always starving man get away from that fridge!
Here comes Lucy, she's feelin' really sexy, she's followed by her boyfriend, who'd better not turn around, this time, or he's bound to lose her, and here comes Jamilla, who's got the cream soda...

I can do everything, she said, she said with a smile
And I can go anywhere tonight, cause I'm with Anne




5. We Care A Lot

We care a lot
about disasters, fires, floods and killer bees
about Los Angeles falling in the sea
about starvation and the food that Live Aid bought
about disease, baby, Rock Hudson, Rock...Yeah!

We care a lot
about the gamblers and the pushers and the freaks
about the people who live off the street
about the welfare of all the boys and girls
about you people cause we're out to save the world

Yeah!

And it's a dirty job but someone's got to do it!

We care a lot
about the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines
about the NY, SF, and LAPD
about you people, about your guns
about the wars you're fighting
gee, that looks like fun

We care a lot
about the Cabbage Patch, The Smurfs, and DMC
about Madonna and we cop for Mr.T
about the little things, the bigger things we top
about you people, yeah, you bet we care a lot

And it's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it....




6. Surprise! You're Dead!

Surprise! you're dead!
Ha ha! open your eyes
See the world as it used to be when you used to be in it
When you were alive and when you were in love

And when I took it from you!
It's not over yet
You don't remember?
I won't let you forget

The hatred I bestowed
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
From my teeth and my tongue
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun

Now you are mine
I'll keep killing you until the end of time
Surprise! you're dead!
Guess what?

It never ends...
The pain, the torment and torture, profanity
Nausea, suffering, perversion, calamity
You can't get away




7. From Out of Nowhere

Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm
You splash me with beauty and pull me down
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare

Obsession rules me-I'm yours from the start
I know you see me-Our eyes interlock
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare

One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...

Sifting to the bottom, every day for two
All energy funnels, all becomes you
You come from out of nowhere
My glance turns to a stare

One minute here and one minute there
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
One minute here and one minute there

And it hurts inside
One minute here and one minute there
And then you wave good-bye...




8. A Small Victory

Spread out on the nightstand
The spirit of team
Salvation is another chance
A sore loser

Yelling with my mouth shut
A cracking portrait
The fondling of the trophies
The null of losing

Can you afford that luxury?
A sore winner
But i'll just keep my mouth shut
It shouldn't bother me

But it does
The small victories
The cankers and medallions
They keep me thinking that someday

I might beat you
But i'll just keep my mouth shut
The little nothings
It shouldn't bother me

But it does
If i speak at one constant volume at one constant pitch
At one constant rhythm right into your ear, you still won't hear

You still won't hear
You still won't hear
You still won't hear




9. Caffeine (live)

Pour shame all over us
Harden into a crust
--- cement ---

Forget the glamour and
Mumble a jackhammer
--- under your breath ---

Hide your face in the curtains
Better unsaid, so close
And it rolls off the tongue
Almost
The world expects the pose
Perfectly natural
--- loosen up ---

Smearing wet concrete
And swearing you'll never be
--- caught ---

At your weakest, etched in stone
And we're frozen here, peeking
Almost, sweet talk, caffeine
Make contact

Up to my neck
I confess in quicksand
but it's so easy for you
there's always one thing

do you have something to tell me?
say something
anything
i'm warning you

i'm warning you
i'm fucking you
i'm warning you
relax

it's just a phase
you'll grow out of it
Believe anything anyone ever tells you
It's not funny any more

It's thing you hate the most
The thing you hate the most
The thing you hate almost
