tornados pull and push and
rip and crack
i want the story without the spin
i wanna find a little truth within
people talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and
i get lost
i want the story to begin
it's been so long since i
i can't remember when
like a hula hoop
round my leg
and up and down i end
where i begin
bring me down
spin me round
take this crown i've made and
burn it away
i want the story without the spin
keep tryin to find a little truth within
at the crossroads wisdom takes her stand but
i am lost
i want the story without the spin
just tryin to find a little truth within
like fools we juggle our hearts in our hands
at what cost
like dogs we chase in circles around it
lickin our tails and scratchin our backs
tornados pull and push and rip and crack
like dogs we chase in circles around it
tornados pull and
lickin our tails and scratchin our backs
push and rip and crack
bring me down
spin me round
take this crown i've made and
burn it away
take me down to the river
take me down to the river
take me down to the river
spin me round in your river
i am lost in your river

Paper Love Song

a thin piece of paper
clean and white
a once mighty tree
let me write
my lover a poem
from the depths of your roots
to your fluttering leaves
give me a love song
delicate as paper
mighty as a tree oh
rock me angel
milk my skin
swaddle me into lover's arms
i cannot see
rock me angel
milk my skin
set me free
push and tear
make room for light
a mighty river's gonna break on over
with floods of tears
wash away the night
rock me angel
milk my skin
swaddle me into lover's arms
i cannot see
rock me angel
milk my skin
set me free
a thin leaf of paper
a once mighty tree oh
let me write my lover a poem
from the
from the
from the depths of your roots
to your fluttering leaves

all the women little girls
all the men little boys
twistin around in her curls
buildin the town with his toys
all the women little girls
all the men little boys
twistin around in her curls
he's buildin the town with his toys
campus halls, prison walls
and i wish i could say that i wish you well
the truth is shining but you don't see nothin wrong
you don't see nothin wrong
the market falls, empty malls
and i wish i could say that i wish you well
the truth is shining but you don't see nothin wrong
but maybe your soul'd be better if you
you don't see nothin wrong
spent a day in hell
and i wish i could say that i wish you well
like she did
in your autohighfidelicadillacomatic
autohighfidelicadillacomatic
autohighfidelicadillacomatic
your brand new start
all the women little girls
all the men little boys
wrappin up each other in their curls
declaring war with bigger toys
and i wish i could say that i wish you well
the truth is shining but you don't see nothin wrong
but maybe your soul'd be better if you
spent a day in hell
the truth is shining but you don't hear nothin wrong
like she did
the truth is shining but you don't say nothin wrong
so you could feel good
you don't see nothin wrong you don't hear nothin wrong
about your self
you don't say nothin wrong
in your autohighfidelicadillacomatic
autohighfidelicadillacomatic
we are to blame we are to blame we are to blame
but we're just too
we are to blame we are to blame we are to blame
but we're just two
we are to blame we are to blame we are to blame
but we're just too...
bored
all the women little girls
all the men little boys
wrappin up each other in their curls
declaring war with bigger toys
all the women little girls
all the men little boys
wrappin up each other in their curls
declaring bigger wars
and bigger wars and
bigger wars

Soap & Deodorant

i don't want your charity
i don't need your pity
i need a job
i'm just the latest generation
fighting this insanity
don't need your pity
i need a job
maybe something in security
though the horrors of the war
trained me for
what
i don't need
your charity
don't need your pity
i need a job
they told me
they'd take good care of me
and my family
and i'd been looking for years
to take care of it myself
my boy needs a shower
some soap & deodorant
would go pretty far
no i don't want your charity
don't need your pity

take this little clown
who painted on a frown
turn it upside down up down again
down up down up down
up down up down again
hey man, it's good to see you round my friend
twitter twitter pal-pa-titter
how deep does your story go?
pass it through my tin-can-string-band
all for the sake of the show
tweet tweet tweedle-ee-dee
this birds come a mocking
a little story's all she needs
if you take this little clown
who painted on a frown
turn it upside down up down again
down up down up down
up down up down again
hey man, it's good to see you round my friend
well knick-knack patty-whack
why don't you give this dog a bone
all dripping fat and now sink your teeth and
suck it till she's gone
knick-knack patty-whack
give a little take a little from my pocket
why don't you give my dog a bone
give a little take a little from yours too
this old man's just rolling home
take this little clown
who painted on a frown
turn it upside down up down again
down up down up down
up down up down again
it's good to see you
upside down again
it's so good to see you
down up down upside...
...take this clown with a frown upside down
