lyrics

All work and no play
Makes the night a dull lay,
So take the boys down to the docks
and make their throats sing red,
oh oh oh oh.
I met a perfect isotope
her fingers bandaged, and I knew if I got too close
I would would pay for it...
But it was in everyone's interest.

And I walk home, alone that night,
I swear I saw your electric reflection and she reminded me:

"Why you hava go out and play with the dogs?
They only wana see you dead,
Wana see your head droop,
kissing the ground I swept
so, so, so-so (carefully)."
Doesn't mean a thing in the smoke,
"Monogamy is a killing joke"
- said the bathroom stall.
I took a piss just to show how much I cared about it.

And I walk home, alone, that night.
Or was there another?
By my side?
Was there another...
Someone I don't recall...

This is a story to tell your kids
to get them to go to bed
So when they've grown up and take drugs,
Get fucked up, fucked over...No one will know,
And all you can do is laugh.

The Arab Springs Memphis, Tennessee

I'm just kissing the twilight
I'm only eagerly tentatively awaiting a response
Maybe a letter in my mailbox...
If I'm lucky enough...
If I'm lucky at all
In a months time we'll be dressed in black,
Singing my birthday song ... more
