It's a piano song.

I'm a Baltimore guy.

Trying to be bullocks.

As close as we come to the Clash.

...At Brian's insistence.

Nothing's important.

It's not neglect!

Fyodor Dostoevsky, folks

You never know quite what to do You shut up when I'm in the room You lead me around by the tongue I see it all clear as the sun You love me when I play guitar Then throw me away in the yard You lead me around like a dog So lead me around like a dog Do do do do do do do do do do do do do All right yeah You lead me around like a dog So cook me some breakfast tonight I'll hold you if you got to puke I'll hold you 'til you feel alright Puke puke puke puke puke puke puke puke puke puke puke puke puke Alright yeah

Lost on North Avenue my job took me there everyday A different world a new country I found out today It's like I'm a foreigner born in the u s of a Tension so thick you can cut it I'm here anyway Driving on back to my home where the radio's free Crank up the Velvets and Ice Cube and vintage PE Pop in the Replacements and drift to a van on the road Every once in a while I just want to explode The magic of music's a cascading ballet of junk Stuck in the middle of metal and country and funk Sometimes I feel lost when I'm writing I want to be Neil Every musician I know they just want to be real Yeah All of these labels for music mean jack shit to me Subconsciously divide and conquer the will to be free I don't want no purists around me it's forrest or trees Give me a forrest and watch me sink into the leaves Sinkin deep Yeah, sinkin deep Ah-oo lord Ah-oo lord sinkin deep Yeah sinkin Sinkin deep  

Here's some chips and dip Have a nice party, son I can see it clear as day All smiling cakes and fun Bring my chips and dip To your party later on I got some peanuts too For your happy birthday song Here's a dirty card Don't show it to your mother Here's a briefcase and a check When's last you saw you brother? Take my stuff on back inside It's yours now take it light Yeah and don't drink too much beer When you're partying tonight  No I come from overseas My dad and me no way And I didn't see him die My plane was late that day My old house like a wall I ain't ever left them doors Look how they've wrecked my yard I left my home What for So I got my kid chips and dip He turned 25 today I took him overseas You should really see him play My son looked kind of sad When I said goodbye But I taught my boy one thing A real man never cries (That's wrong) Now I don't ever look back When I drive my truck away And I hardly see my kids Except on Christmas Day So I walk on up them steps Take my shoes off and lie down On my

When I look in your eyes The clouds leave the skies My pain starts to wane So I'll say it again Say you love me too It's good making love Feels so good making love Tell my buddies roll on I'll catch up later on But we all know I won't Something I just won't do They're all down at last call While I'm in bed with you Say you love me too All of my life I searched for what's true Without even looking I found it in you I guess we both know it's right Even though we m,ight fight It's a timeless affair It's like wind in the air Because when I look in your eyes The clouds leave the skies My pain starts to wane So I'll say it again Say you love me too

Do you remember giving me your number And your address too Do you remember videos of thunder Can't ignore you Come sweetly watch your step and shudder I thought that you were someone's girl  To another empty form of flatter But not from me Hanging with my little sister But you should be Around my house at dawn for California I'm a crazy man I thought I'd warn you Now I'm too shy to drink you're so specific This song is for you I hope you Dig it love is what you make it But it makes you Just like dying hell you just can't fake it But it fakes you Come loudly watch your mouth and sputter Faces in a whirl I'm taking cover So what's the reason for all of this clamor Build you with a chisel and a hammer

Drinking a 40 on the second day of spring We just sent off the mailing list Got a keg flowing in the afternoon It's time for drinking this So many cats on the mansion porch I know everyone inside Girl living in an upstairs apartment One day she'll be my bride Picked up D down in old Pigtown Got a ride in the van inside Smoking around an ounce of weed Laughing 'til it hurts my sides Thank god it's finally spring Snow's been thawed a couple months It's still been cold as shit Keeping warm with whiskey and tequila And a million beers with it Keeping numb with pills and something That I got for lifting weights In springtime there's so many girls Ain't no need to masturbate Thank god it's finally spring Now everyone can sing Birds fly through the wings  Whistling as we sing Love me Let me  Love you Ooh  

Let's agree on disagreeing Let's agree on moving on Let's agree just for agreement On second thought don't call me on the phone 'Cause I'm flashing back on days of sorrow Cold and melancholy like the night Frown around and feeling stupid On second thought I'm going out tonight I ain't going out just for the movement 'Cause I'm liking sitting here just fine Yeah Let's argue for just the talking Let's drive aroiund and talk some more Buy a twelve pack close to midnight And never wonder what's outside that door Let's just keep our heads and rotate Round and round each other like the stars Create panic from enjoyment I'm sick of all these goddamn local bars I ain't going out just for the movement 'Cause I'm liking sitting here just fine Hey Let's agree on being different Let's agree on being sane Let's agree that life is awesome Let's agree that life is pain I ain't (etc)  

Hey, Dad, I'm dying Hey, son, I done my best Hey, Dad, you're lying Hey, son, I done my best Hey, Dad, I'm thinking Hey, son, I'm thinking through Hay, Dad, I'm starving Hey, son, I'm hungry too Hey, Dad, I'm running Hey, son, I'm running through Hey, son, I'm gunning Hey, Dad, I'm drinking brew Hey, Dad, it's night time Hey, son, it's morning dew Hey, Dad, it's summer Hey, son, it's winter too instrumental break Build the levee Hold back every tide Submerge every wake Stifle every ride Raze the pounding surf Stop the raging wind Break the tree that bends Never grow again Shade the morning sun Pave the pastures pure Sweep up all the dirt Make a tree a door Shelter from the storm Melt the smoldering ice Then unleash the beast Suckling on you life

Got in my truck and I drove off I didn't say shit Looking for words when they left me to stew over it Every once in a while I just can't shrug it off 16 years sober will make you a shiny self cross So I apologized when we did plug in the gear All of this time I been wanting it's year upon year How can a something be somewhere wherever it is Can't it be nowhere and nothing and not of the biz Sinking deep Checking on back with our hero he's feeling his oats Making his way as a young man with three leather coats Has one for weddings and such and one to stay warm His favorite is over his shoulders it shelters the storm It's meloncholy and it's bright green and newer than new Every once in a while I don't know what to do Living vicariously 'cause that's a writer will do Put it all in here and then some and do it for you Sinking deep
