i said loving you is bigger than my head
and then you dove in
and then i said i'm afraid that i need men
you said, need me then
if you are already scared with your mouth up in the air
then try to breathe under the water through this tube
how long do you think we can sit here before we have to move?
we don't talk much in the morning
or beginning when you've just arrived
i find that i've forgotten why i did it
and i know your middle name
but i might know you if i didn't
in the moments when you're kissing
like a baby in the kitchen
how long
how long
do i have left with my dog till i start forgetting shit
till we're rich and then we're not and then we're rich
how much longer till i'm taller
how much longer till it's midnight
how much longer till the morning
are my legs gonna last
is it too much to ask
is it too much to ask

Fit N Full

on the bowery singin country roads
i was outta town when dymphnas closed
got prettier in denver
phasing out of this old fairy tale
apple cider vinegar and kale
i'm fit and full as ever!
if you want i can take it off
and show you want my mama gave me
only getting hotter as i sweat
i have never really been upset
just hollow and amazing
all i want is to be like my dad
all i want's to give you what i had
i'm generous and vacant
if you want i can take it off
and show you what my mama gave me
it's so hot
in this restaurant
i might just get fully naked
if you want i can take it off
and show you what my mama gave me
(the cleaning thing the tidal creek
the murderous bird her bleeding beak)
it's so hot in this restaurant
i might just get fully naked

Big Wheel

i got bug bites on my legs
i got two friends who look alive
i got coffee in the morning
and my mama in the night
and i got bad news but i didn't fight
i got bad news but i didn't fight
i got a big wheel in montana and he told me yesterday
that a year ago he looked me in the eyes and lied to me
got an old friend in japan
and she's been mad at me before
it's just that she and i have got nothing in common anymore
he feels bad for doing what he did that night
she bought new shoes in tokyo
i got bad news but i didn't fight
i got bad news but i didn't fight
i got a lover in my bedroom or the smell of him at least
if he's somewhere getting smarter on a free man's odyssey
god i'm really gonna blow with all this empathetic shit
i understand the thing you did and every reason you did it
but i'm so mad dude and i wanna cry
i got bad news but i didn't fight
i got bug bites on my legs
got a big wheel in montana
got an old friend in japan
got a lover in my bedroom
and i got bad news but i didn't fight
i got bad news but i didn't fight

Limbo Bitch

take down
take heed
fifth inning
cold feet
call me names up there
tugging at my cheeks
higher wider mouth slithering
on this high rise watch the sea of dots go dundundun
can't believe i'm touching pieces of when you were young
good girl
sharp teeth
your mouth
my feet
you can limbo, bitch
dance before you quit
you can limbo, bitch
dance before you quit
put my panties on
dance like you're the whore
fold the flower out
mine is your
happy birthday angel
take it with your bleeding hand
think i like your mama too much not to say amen
good lord
we'll see
you can
have me
good fox
they bite
you won't
you might

Stellate
04:09
|

I'll hold you from your small
How about that? How about that?
You made me medium tall
I'll make you feel good again
You made your car a vacuum
You pulled over too
So when you let me out
I owed my life to you
I wanna get you sedated
Like when it all began
I wanna play you records I like
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna let it all go
I swear I swear I do
Show me where you are stellate
I'll stick the needle through
you know it
but i can say it for you
you know it
but i can say it for you
And when the heat showed up
you wouldn't open the door
i locked myself in and laid down on the bathroom floor
I put another vellum between my face and yours
so through the vellum you'd discern my face from yours
You know it
but i can say it for you
You know it
but i can say it for you
I wanna wake you up
Show you the boat I bought
I wanna go sailing with you to someplace we are not
You buy me a big bucket
I scream into that
And when it overflows
You want your money back
You know it
but i can say it for you

Triptych
03:06
|

keeping you awake keeping you awake on purpose
hey did i make a mistake and do my mistakes worsen?
i would give it up to every man i love
i take what i can get
and every woman too i would too
that's my only secret left
i will entertain your feet or your hands for a triptych
sell me at the strand on the stands for a fat brick
i get what i want and your girlfriend too
make a predator of me i'll be good to you
i'm worth it
you
i'm worth it
so before i turn it off
little light at my bedstand
ask me what i thought of the life that i lead
and i'll take off your pants
say goodnight to the ears there
put you where i sing
in the light in the damp air
i'll be good to you
i'll be good to you
i'm the moving mouth
moving mouth with my eyes closed
breathing an excuse
breathing loose through my new nose
i will buy a round on your dime like i used to
feeding you my cake
you my cake
eating it too
i'll be good to you
i'll be good to you

Does Not Heal
02:58

after i cut up my thigh climbing over that fence with you
brave and unnatural already shrouded in reds and blues
i was so scared i had tetanus i checked on it every night
purple and yellow the pregnable skin was so coarse and tight
and now i hope it does not heal
now i hope it does not heal
you hope i'm blind
but i give you big what
and say it again
whipping your head
tryna hide behind hair that has not grown yet
i will stand in for an older me if you say i trust you
give me your hand gonna bite off however much i can chew
and i hope you do not heal
i hope you do not heal
turn down evening comes
all smooth and licked up
i'm tough
i'm tough
but i hope i do not heal
i hope i do not heal

Waverly
02:49
|

there's a restaurant in the east village
where all the waiters are celebrities
my first love waited hours in the back
making brazen advances towards waverly
there is lore of a movie star
leaving his number for her on an old receipt
all i know is that she didn't call him
what a mystery, waverly
hey i live across the street and
wanted to know if you'd be my friend
won't call again
i'm a patron dressed up like a person
i'm a creature instead of me
dark at night and sunlight in the morning
decide that i'll try aging gracefully
here are all of my friends and my parents
this is my birthday party
you can push all the tables together
but you can't pull one over on waverly
hey i live across the street and
wanted to know if you'd be my friend
won't call again

you said bug i think i love you bug
i said ya i think you love me too
even though you made me cry tonight
nothing poisonous and nothing new
so i hurled myself into the pool
and i danced for all the party guests
i do only ever as i want
and especially when it's a test
why you shaking? why you shaking?
you said it don't matter how you sing
when you sing we know the reason why
and your body's just the housing thing
for the song that i'm confounded by
why am i shaking? why am i shaking?
i wanna be your poetry
i'm sick and tired of bluffin
you said when you get over me
you'll finally get it published
i think they're gonna love it
drinkin mezcal like we're at the bar
chase it with what i was gonna say
i know why i'm going where you are
and why i will find you on the way

Minnesota
03:01
|

there is a place between your shoulder and chest
which i would rather not leave
and when you let the drippings of the thing
fall around me i am just wet and afraid
and screaming your name
fuck if your one sliced hand is not
the keeper of the back of my neck
i came alive this morning
with a pit in my stomach because
i'd rolled to the other side
if i missed you in the night
i guess i'm goina minnesota huh?
i guess i'm goina minnesota huh?
keeping your mouth real dry
so that my words will not dissolve on your tongue
but i don't need to talk by some
disgusting accident of communion
fuck my feet
i'm tryna cross the street but they keep
goina minnesota huh?
i guess i'm goina minnesota huh?
i'm sneaking up without my manners
scripture sink my teeth into the book
where you keep your secrets about me
kissing to trick you into
easing your grip
so i can steal that shit and take it
home from minnesota with me
i guess i'm goina minnesota huh?

We're in a tin box and I've got a toothpick
and i have been poking the air
Somebody gave you a knife for your birthday
I think I know who but that's not my affair
So I dance down the street like I'm miss Angelina
My legs are so grounded and strong
And I'm not afraid that if i am the skipper
I'll steer my flesh into the bog
But is there something in the movies that's better than my love?
Is there something in the movies that's better than my love?
Carried around a stuffed pig in my arms
and i did it until i was five
I got it from someone who died of attention
and lived an extraordinary life
But i gave it to you on the day that we met
cause already i trusted you best
Everyone dies but they shouldn't die young
anyway you're invited to set
Is there something in the movies that's better than my love?
is there something in the movies that's better than my love?
I left you in life cause you don't need my pen to embellish your noteworthy parts
And I only write songs about things that I'm scared of
So here, now you're deathless in art
You've got this and the movies and also my love
You can have it all baby I'm giving it up
