Postmistress holiday blues
What am I supposed to really do?
Falling in and out of love
It’s not what I was thinking of
I saw you first
But it just made things worse
If I could just catch your name
I wouldn’t feel so ashamed
When you decide to turn me down
It gets me so turned around

Be My Little Maybe
01:49
|

Do you want my money?
Do you want my fame?
Do you want my babies?
Or my last name?
I can't help you anyway
I'm probably bound to go astray
I can't help you anyway
I don't know what else to say
You're only happy with a material life
And I'm about as stable as your Dad's cheating wife
And he'll be there when the sun goes down
An 8 to 5 man is always around
To take off your evening gown
(So take it off, girl)

Girl, you mess me up
Just like a car crash
Just like a bad ass
When you said we were through
Don't leave without leaving what's left of me
Worst of all you got the best of me
Girl, you haunt my mind
Just like a bad hex
Just like a jealous ex
Like the one I'm going to be

The Girl In Scorpio 70
01:52

The cover of
She wears venom wherever she goes
Five points in a circle
Take me where I wanna go
Where I go, nobody knows
That's what she said to me
The Girl in Scorpio 70
Put the pill on the girl
And fight fever all the time
Confuse karma with cancer
And tell me you'll be mine
Can a magnet erase my mind?

Ex-Girlfriends Guitar
02:08

Shake off those dreary moods
Be present when they count out the dudes
Flag down your risky whip
Hold your smoke when you shake your hips
You think you know me all too well
You never know quite who you are
Strumming ex-girlfriends guitar
Getting closer to sub par
Strumming ex-girlfriends guitar
Take off those new kid clothes
You're reaching up to hit new lows
The hen house is catching fire
Windmill verses through the wire
I think I know you all too well
Should I know what you do
when I'm not there with you?
You say you're just good friends
but it's hard to tell with those eyes he sends
You never know quite who you are
Strumming ex-girlfriends guitar
Inching closer to sub par
Strumming ex-girlfriends guitar

Your fate tied to mine
Like damsels to the train track
Like my eyes to the big black
Manic panic and attack
We could spend a summer or two
Pumping quarters into bad dudes
Gotta know could it be you?
Someone's gotta be Dazzler
Phantoms chasing fat boys
Getting vapors, breaking new toys
Paint plastic at point blank
Death feather in the bank

After all the conversations
And all anticipations
Your final words would leave me sad and blue
All this time I’ve cut and pasted
My calloused heart that I’ve wasted
But I can tell you have a fresh wound
I won’t take the place of an old love
‘Cause I got to be the one you think of
Anxious separations
Of astral constellations
The clean breaks that somehow see us through
I know why you had to leave
I was loud but discreet
Could no one love you like I do?
I won’t take the place of an old love
Because I gotta be the one you think of
Some will come others will pass
But let me think I have a chance

Damaged Star
02:40
|
|||
Bad blood it’s going around
You’re trampled on the stomping ground
Parting animals stunning up
You’re drowning in my empty cup
Damaged star you know you’ll never win
I check the obits everyday
With the hopes I find your name
Parting animals coming down
A stampede on the sacred ground
Damaged star you know you’ll never win
Missing ghost
Do you know who you are?
Faded rose
Do you know who you aren’t?

Love Less Traveled
01:00
|
|||
I’m gonna marry me a southern girl
So I can hear her talk
I’m gonna marry me a metal girl
So we can fucking rock
I’m gonna marry me a French girl
So she can paint our pets
I’m gonna marry me a Minneapolis girl
Hope she’s into The Soviettes
And if none of it works out
I’ll just move back to my parents house
Hopefully it won’t come to that
Cause that would be so fuckin’ lame

Boy, She's Gone
03:44
|
|||
If you see
My girl
Passing by
On her own
Don’t ask her why
I’m not there
Cause she’ll probably say
That she don’t care
She went away
I let her go
I’m so lost now
She’s all I know
How could I’ve lost
My chance is blown
I want her back
But she’s made it known
That she’s gone
Boy she’s gone
Yeah she’s gone
Boy she’s gone
If you hear
A whispered word
On the street
About her
Tell me quick
But say it slow
My aching heart
Still wants to know
That she’s gone
Boy she’s gone
Yeah she’s gone
Boy she’s gone
Maybe I should know better
Nothing is forever
She’s making plans and moving on
The ink has dried conclusions drawn
Yeah she’s gone
