Lieutenant's in town

you know the drink man
you know you got kick it
and the weed man
you know you have to stick it
up your ass man
because its dangerous
with lieutenant around
everyone'll get arrested

can't develop man
your only five feet tall
and with a hat on
you still are looking small
try my shoes on
to confuse lieutenant
you can confound the man
if you just stand still

(we all know the drill)
yes i know
but its old news
that he grows stronger with time
check my wrist watch, time me
i'll be zero to sixty
half a second
'fore his rat pack
gets anywhere near me

but ya'll wouldn't be so lucky
(tell us again)
yo that drink man
he knows that ain't kool-aid
and that wrist watch
he knows where you got it from
he will bottom out
bottom up
every punk up in this joint be warned ya'll
the lieutenant's in town

(knock you upside down)
bust that cap off your head
turn it right side round
(just a slap on the wrist)
with a handcuff
iron hand
in a clenched fist
but it all can be avoided
if you just stand still

(we all know the drill)
yes i know
but you're fidgeting
and you know that he hates to see (ah, ah ah)

group of kids looking down at the time
impatiently awaiting punishment
accused of a new crime

you know the weed man
you know you got to ditch it
and the drink man
do you think you can finish it?
got a weird feeling that lieutenant's around
and i wont be staying standing here to find out

thought you'ze old school
thought you was (known the drill)
unless you run like me
than he ruin your night
and as he ran in fright
the dark arm came down
and the lieutenants club
knocked his eyeballs out

[guitar solo]

[we all know the drill]
yes i know
but please, if everyone'll
just stand still

Silent Tears
by Connie

Last night when I went to bed
beautiful thoughts of you filled my troubled head
I have not cried in many years but onto my pillow
tonight fell six silent tears
The first was for your smile I missed so much and
your soft tender lips that I longed to kiss and touch
The second was for your angelic face and the
thought of your warm loving gentle embrace
The third was no suprise the tear fell as I
pictured your bright beautiful blue eyes
Then the fourth came rolling
Iinstead of my pillow you should be the one I am holding
The fith silent tear fell for one reason alone
I knew my love for you was not shown
I miss you so much my sweet dear
there rolled the sixth sad silent tear.

Yogi Quotes

It gets late early out there
If you come to a fork in the road, take it
I always thought that record would stand until it was broken
Why buy good luggage? You only use it when you travel.
The other teams could make trouble for us if they win.
I didn't really say everything I said.
You should always go to other people's funerals; otherwise, they won't come to yours.
This is like deja vu all over again.
You can observe a lot just by watching.
I want to thank you for making this day necessary.

when the echo never stops
you know you hit it good
sonic vibrations
turn into brain blood

you won't forget
the last thing said
around your head
in your bloody brain

the echo never stops
but it might slightly alter
but most likely it will start
to echo itself

sonic vibrations
turn into heart attacks

she taught me to cherish ignorance
and our first kiss tasted like raspberry cough syrup
she garnished her sleeves with diaper pins
so that while hugging she wouldn't prick me

our first kiss tasted like raspberry cough syrup
and our last kiss tasted like expired lipstick
and while hugging she wouldn't prick me
cause she was scared to share our blood

our last kiss tasted like expired lipstick
and that taste stayed and wouldn't go away
but she was scared to share our blood
so the lipstick outlived the love

the taste that stayed and wouldn't go away
with the way she taught me to brush my teeth
so the lipstick outlived the brushing


she taught me to brush my teeth
and how to take my temperature
she taught me to cherish ignorance
and she would say:

if I know what i'm doing
you probably know what i'm doing too
if I know what i'm doing
and you know what i'm doing
than there is no point

the focus of knowing upon unkowing
and the negociation back and forth
too and fro

But commercial success never came his way, and instead of a star, Linkous became something different and much more interesting: a cult figure.

Who got to decide the size of business cards (anyway)?

the spokes of the wheel of a bicycle

pretty blond girls
walking hand in hand,
skinny blond girls

you know it's raining
but you can't feel it

everyone was going somewhere
but now they must have gotten there

a tornado blew through
and nobody moved
a hurricane came though
and nobody felt wet
a typhoon ensued
no one was bruised
traffic was jammed
and everyone held there horns

driving over the train tracks
for miles
you feel the rain
but it's not raining

children's cough medicine

(cherish ignorance)
if I know what i'm doing
you probably know what i'm doing too
if I know what i'm doing
and you know what i',m doing
the focus of knowing upon unkowing
and the negociation back and forth
too and fro

what's the point

the band

the unnamed cartoon character, (Lucy) the self-playing organ, the man in the box, Dana 1, Dana 2, Dana 3, the late rock musician, the wandering shadow, and their producer, Steve Richter, former librarian and former woman.

the misplaced identity self help group exercises in permanence

step one: identity is never lost, it is only misplaced
-remember, identity is all perception - yours and theirs - and perception is transient

if perception is transient
then the race can be freestyle
breaststroke, backstoke,

"meet the band song" where the instrument of the individual being sung about plays the melody with the lyrics about them

when the suicide clean up crew had their work to do

"everything is written in the studio... and we do our sessions there too."

pieces of a puzzle

in a powerful state
there lies an undisclosed location
in which there is a nondescript building
in which there is a big office
in which there is a big board
that thinkers drag their fingers across
to think
and to make things happen

and I got lost from my tour group
very lost
and happened to stumble into
this very important place
only everyone was on a lunch break
except the security guard

"hey what are you doing in here?"
"oh i'm sorry, i was with my tour group and i got lost"
very lost

and i looked upon the big board and all the things it did
and he let me try it

oh that one looks a Z!
and now it looks like an N!
that one's a square!
and that one's a line!
and this one looks like a fried egg...
only now it's upside down.
and they all fit together.
only now it's all speeding up!
and everything's building up!!
and it's hitting the ceiling!!!
game over.
wanna play again?

enter your name?
oh, ok.
enter your age?
oh, ok.
enter your phone number?
oh, ok.
enter your address?
oh, ok.
enter your blood type.
oh, ok.
enter your shoe size?
oh, ok.
what are you wearing?
return, return, return!!!!

but it was too late
everyone had returned from their lunch break
and i didn't even get to hear what they had
"a fried egg, only upside down"
huh...

i was in new york city on holiday
walking down a street
on the set of a movie
and i noticed something strange
all the cars and the buildings
and the people
they all fit together
like pieces of a puzzle
except only if you could look at it fast enough

everything fits together
like pieces of a puzzle
but only if you can look at it fast enough

we'll play
everybody's myspace
at the same time
the world will never sound the same


come in to my extra large garage
bring your distortion and bring your noise toys
the microphone does smell like a beer
