The sound is fat Recording cassette Because even DAT is too far advanced You might wanna get A drink and be sat Before this jet from your speakers is lanced Hold onto your hat 'Cause only a cat Is not gonna bat an eyelash Unless she's upset Then you call a vet And make sure your pet stays stylish.

Test my ropes, will they hold? God is watching me unfold Live my life so free Can you please not bother me? Don't know how to tell a lie Wouldn't ever hurt a fly Love my life mostly Hide my pain, won't let you see One of these days I'll fly away But for now I'll see my girl soon Only one who makes me swoon Live my life so free Music is my place to be One of these days I'll fly away But when I do Ask me to stay.

Mother said to her baby girl "It's a beautiful dangerous world" Girl went and took the car and said her grace As tears streamed down her pretty face Car crashed into a deep blue lake People mourning her, feelings fake Girl went to heaven, her eyes went wide God and the devil sitting side by side God laughed and said "do you see the light?" And the devil played the piano for the girl that night.

Going to the beach, we're gonna have a party Run in the sand and feel so cool Jump in the sea, swim with the dolphins Dive underwater, floating free Everyone is looking psychedelic Turtles want to be our friends Back on the beach, the sun is setting Light a fire, gaze at the stars Roast marshmellows, be silly Sea lions playing ball with us Energy is running high Turn up the music and dance and sing! Everyone has a girl to kiss Now we lie down and dream.

Two whores stood before the king Alice told him "Sarah took my son The child that she bore was dead So she took away my baby" Sarah said "no, I've been good Gave birth to a healthy child In the morning when I woke He was feeding at my breast Then I looked to see this whore Hold her stillborn in her arms I'm not smart but this I know Dead babies drink no milk" Alice said "my king, I swear This living child you see is mine In the morning when I woke In his crib was Sarah's son" So the king said to his slave "Bring a sword before my throne Cut the baby child in half Give one half each to the whores" Alice cried out screaming "no I'd rather see him live with her" Sarah said "cut him in half He'll be neither mine nor hers."

Summer on the range Why do I feel so strange? Sent away from home To where the angels roam Live my life in fear The end is very near I feel so alone They'll break my every bone Summer swept the land And took my only friend Far away from home Stumbling through the (gloam.)

Forsake my soul Leave my heart Take your toll Pry apart This is your chance Soothe me Quiet dance Bite my lip Shed your wings Little girl Ooh your smell Makes my blood swirl Come along.

Cold wind and a mist Thoughts of girls that I kissed My sin Náhuatl flowers Náhuatl flowers World is ours Alone animal soul Hearts turning to coal Tough skin Náhuatl flowers World is ours Raincloud showers Born in a strange world Should have been a girl Soft skin God raising his hand Tree skin Rainbow showers World is ours Náhuatl flowers.
