I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
But nothing is
When I feel heavy metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
When I'm lying I'm easy
All of the time I am never sure why I need you
Pleased to meet you
I got my head down
When I was young
It's not my problem
It's not my problem

The Bends
03:44
|

Where do we go from here
The words are coming out all weird, where are you now
When I need you
Alone on an airplane
Falling asleep against the windowpane
My blood will thicken
I need to wash myself again
To hide all the dirt and pain cause I'd be scared
That there's nothing underneath
And who are my real friends
Have they all got the bends, am I really sinking
This low
My baby's got the bends
Oh, no
We don't have any real friends
Just lying in a bar with my drip feed on
Talking to my girlfriend, waiting for something to happen
And I wish it was the sixties, I wish I could be happy
I wish, I wish, I wish that something would happen
Where do we go from here
The planet is a gunboat in a sea of fear
And where are you
They brought in the C.I.A.
The tanks and the whole marines to blow me away
To blow me sky-high
Baby's got the bends
We don't have any real friends
Just lying in a bar with my drip feed on
Talking to my girlfriend, waiting for something to happen
I wish it was the sixties, I wish I could be happy
I wish, I wish, I wish that something would
I want to live, breathe
I want to be part of the human race
Where do we go from here
The words are coming out all weird, where are you now
When I need you

Quiet's Theme
03:44
|

The words you’ll never know
Left on her, still
And, as we all know
It goes downhill
And she’s thought it through and through
She’s walking out on you
And you don't have a clue
You realize you look so fine and now you’re mine to my surprise
I guess that’s fine, now you’re mine but I don’t know my left from right
Write yet a new verse
But it all sounds the same
And as we all know
It’s all a waste
And you’re giving up on me
And you throw away your key
And you’re living in your dreams
You realize you look so fine but now you’re mine to my surprise
I guess that’s fine, now you’re mine but I don’t know my wrong from right
When you walk into my mind I wonder if it’s your design
You realize you look so fine...

Last Night on Earth
03:34

I text the postcard sent to you, did it go through?
Sending all my love to you
You are the moonlight of my life, every night
Giving all my love to you
My beating heart belongs to you
I walked for miles 'til I found you
I'm here to honor you
If I lose everything in the fire
I'm sending all my love to you
With every breath that I'm worth, here on Earth
I'm sending all my love to you
So if you dare to second guess, you can rest assured
That all my love's for you

Imaginary Person

See see, I can't see
What you're trying to do to me
Oh no
Oh yeah, cause you're in my head
So I never go to bed
Oh no
Talk talk, it's all you do
So I never talk to you
Oh no
Oh yeah, cause you're in my head
So I never go to bed
Oh no
Cause you, you are
An imaginary person
You're in my head
But I am certain you are real
You are real

Gigantic
02:31

And this I know, his teeth as white as snow
What a gas it was to see him
Walk her everyday, into a shady place
With her lips she said
She said
"Hey Paul, hey Paul, hey Paul
Let's have a ball"
Gigantic
A big, big love
Lovely legs there are
What a big black mass, what a hunk of love
He'll walk her every day into a shady place
Like the dark, but I'd want him

I get up at 9
OK that's a lie
I get up at 3
What's wrong with me
She takes off her clothes
That's cool I suppose
I'm living the dream
Or so it would seem
Weeds and garbage fill the whole parking lot
I sit, accumulating too much thought
I think I want to try and change my life
But I lack the motivation and the time
They say I sleep too much, undereat and such
I'm never really in the right state of mind
They're at it again
That girl and my friend
I try not to hear
I try not to care
The people keep themselves as they go
I see them act this way through my window
I wish that I would get up at 9

Advice
02:13

You easily get angry over trifles
Take that seriously cause it's important
Please don't lose your temper, don't get excited
I still have a great deal more to tell you
I want to see you again someday
So leave me alone, away with you
Yeah
You're good for nothing, also a mocker
You're rotten on the inside and outside
Tidy yourself up, shame on you
I don't dislike you but I don't make friends
Everyone told me that I was wrong
I had nothing to do with it
They gave me a lot of advice
I don't want to have anything to do with you
Thank you

Well I am up in arms cause I got no say
No matter what they do I just can't get away
The bitch is at my door every night and day
I've been a nervous wreck every March through May
If you can help me out please show me the way
I don't have time to spend so please don't delay
The people stalk my shadow like it's their prey
The way you act repulses me and I can't stay
Well I don't mean to be mean but please don't waste my time
You got to live your live or get left behind
They say carpe diem is a crime
But you seem to hang around wanting a free ride
I know it's all short just to abide
But please don't try to tell me how to live my life
Emotional wreck and you show all the signs
I thought I was bad but you seem to lie
It could be over, but I'm not done
You're always trying to ruin my fun
I'll only do it, if I have some
If you got a problem, why don't you find someone
Someone
Get some
I don't know
