turnpike attendant
saw the tear fall from my eyes
glued to yellow lines
one more minute
means my hand
is 1.2 more miles
from your heart
beating in time with...
and I couldn't get the lid off
when my throat got dry
and I couldn't get the lid off
when my throat got dry
and all I want
is your hand by my side
you're on my side
you're on my side

Cinder Block

stubbed my toe today
and I'm really pissed off
yeah I'm so mad
yeah, gonna dust someone off
it really hurt
I'm in so much pain
someone's gonna have
a lot to explain
who put that cinder block on my floor?
put it next to my door?
on the way to the bathroom
I'm so pissed off, da da da da

Invisible
01:52
|

|
I went over to your house
the other day, to not see you
I tried to act real cool
real nonchalant
so you might like me
like I like you
you saw through my plan
like I saw through your hand
you could be right next to me
but I turn and look, you're not there
I could be holding your hand
but then again I could be holding air
I'd really like to start seeing you
but then I can't
because you're invisible, transparent
where the fuck are you?
my invisible girl
when I look in your eyes
I see right through your head
and out the other side
what do you see
when you look at me?
am I invisible too?
invisible to you?

Punnet Square Brown Hair

dreamed you called last night
pictured your face
felt your lips move, heard your voice
thought you were pretty again
don't remember a word you said
didn't say anything
don't remember a word you said
couldn't, I was asleep
must not have been important
must not have been important
or maybe my subconscious
was telling me something

Inky

|
I wrote your name
on a piece of paper
and underneath and underlined
I wrote down your telephone number
I was gonna call you up Friday
and ask you on a date
stupid me, stupid me
I did my laundry
and the ink ran out
and all I want to do is run to you
and the ink ran out
and all I want to do is run to you
did you know
that you make me feel funny
in a real good way
I wanted to know
if I made you feel funny
in a real good way
and the ink ran out
and all I want to do is run to you
and the ink ran out
and all I want to do is run to you
and the lights went out
and the curtains were drawn
and you've long since gone
away from me

Rand McNally

got my old atlas out
the one from seventh grade
looked to the northeast
in section E-5
I squint my eyes
and look a lot closer
to try to see you
by the sea
got out a magnifying glass
it didn't help at all
got out a spyglass
and saw into my neighbor's window
they were watching TV
they were watching Dick Van Dyke
I wanted to see you
I wanted to see you
Rand McNally!
your atlas sucks!
Rand McNally!
your atlas sucks!

Condensation
01:39
|
|||
|
press your face against the glass
hold your breath and kiss the mirror
your breath escapes, the image fades
somehow her face is clearer
let the hot water run
the whole room will fill with steam
and in the condensation
I will write your name
I wish on your lips
that you could kiss me
let the water run
the whole room will fill with steam
and in the condensation
I will write your name

Jonny Varsity likes football
as much as you like hardcore
you say he can't understand you
but you don't understand
the subtle beauty of the option
and you don't even know
how many points there are
in a two-point conversion
so take your elitist bullshit
and stick it in your goddamn ear
so take your elitist bullshit
and stick it in your goddamn ear

Hipster
02:10
|

|
black patent leather shoes
and a haircut cut from GQ magazine
cardigan sweater and a pair of jeans
turned up at the ankles
the cave you're in
has started caving in
the walls are falling down
around your ears
your keen sense of fashion
can not save you
now that we've realized
that hipster equals asshole
do your Buddy Holly indie rocker glasses
even have prescription lenses?
or are they for being looked at
instead of looking out
the cave you're in
has started caving in
the walls are falling down
around your ears
your keen sense of fashion
can not save you
now that we've realized
that hipster equals asshole
I'm a better geek
than you could ever hope to be
I'm a better geek
than you could ever hope to be

Nice Girl
02:19

I wanna meet a nice girl
with a good heart
and some nice eyes
I will love her
we'll go to the movies
where we'll smooch and hug
and kiss in the back row
we'll get involved
in some very heavy petting
a nice girl!
we'll go to the beach
and play footsie in the sand
we'll go for long walks
where we'll hold each other's hands
she'd make me
some chicken noodle soup
if I'm feeling a little sick
and if she wants to, only if she wants to
she would suck my dick
a nice girl!
soft hair, trim waist
only makes jokes in good taste
sharply dressed, heart of gold
I'd give her my hand to hold

Underpants

Victoria's Secret's got
a lot of girls wearing nothing
I've seen a lot of magazines
with girls wearing nothing
but there's only one girl I wanna see
wearing what's on page 51-D
I wanna see you in your
I wanna see you in your underpants

zero gee astronaut girl
I'm in orbit around your world
zero gee astronaut girl
I'm in orbit around your world
for you, I'd go to the moon
for you, I'd go to the stars
I'd go to Pluto, too
I'd even go to Mars
if you were sucked up by a black hole
what would I do?
the interstellar void would seem
so empty without you
zero gee astronaut girl
I'm in orbit around your world
zero gee astronaut girl
I'm in orbit around your world
for you, I'd go to the moon
for you, I'd go to the stars
I'd go to Pluto, too
I'd even go to Mars
I'd fight off
a whole alien invasion for you
I'd even use my ray-gun
on that evil space crustacean
