Sing along soft. Sing along tough. Plant as I pluck Dig like I've dug Take Off the Collar Be a Naked Dog Remember this because memories often move. I've flip-flopped from the Duck to the Goose Painted a Clear Minded Bowl of Fruit Do-Re-Mi..Don't Mind Me Living Loose Trip to Mars Riding on a space ship Au-Revoir to Coca-Cola Season Life on Earth is just a little longer for Boo I've flip flopped from the duck to the goose Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice Do-Re-Mi...Don't Mind Me Living Loose (whistles then flying away)

Little Life 02:33
Keeping me at arm's length Is that a good thing? Maybe I've lost touch with touch Maybe I'm so far gone I'm keeping it to myself Just for this once Keep it In Stride Keep it in Time I'm making myself a little life A couple hours a little tequila I keep to myself A homebody keeping happiness, health, and wealth well that's far away Just get behind me satan for just one more day I am trying Not trying to die I'm wishing for a girlfriend To keep me alive a little life The body knows Cuts from lots of types of arrows North, South, East, and West I've been romeo and JUliet Coriolanus, Lady Macbeth I've seen punch-drunk love with a buzz on I'm wishing that my thoughts would act like they did once My thoughts a little life

I keep my old Christmas Trees In my attic making hundred acre woods The sun's blinds are closed My lights controlled I'm always making shaky shadows Me and that good, like a coffin maker and his wood I love all the germs that are in our culture Some little somethings like blueberry seeds I know what's below old smokey fine china, and a table made out of wood the dog wants seconds Have you ever noticed that meatballs are just little man-made moons My favorite joke is that I only ever laugh at comedians: Blueberry Seeds

Lookie Loos 03:57
A Happy Man is a working man and working man is a godly man and a godly man is a heaven sent and that is where I’m going. Throw my body in the forest put a drum set in my coffin You know I pictured my funeral a lot as a kid Jewelry swinging on the chain There are people swinging my name Everybody I love some lookie loos Some people just looking for blues Never think that I’m dead Look for my proof in the pudding Maybe somewhere I’m feeling bad but it won’t be long Til I’m a… Jingle Jangle Jewelry (Drum set rattles ghostly inside a coffin)

All Our Cats 02:20
Hey there little kitty did you catch that light? I've been trying my whole life. I wish that all our hands were petting all our cats. Hey there Captain America are you swimming in the same pool as us? I've been trying my whole life. I wish that all our hands were petting all our cats. You never know. It's true in the snow, it's true in the sun.

Give me the Spirit to Listen I'm hoping for good things to Happen Floating along on a milkshake galaxy I'm wishing for hope and getting nothing Hoping you're believing me someday Wishing that everyone hears our wishes I'm wearing the right shoe sizes 10.5 I'm hoping for a good thing and I like that All my old tricks are falling back on themselves like the end of the end That's where the ladder starts: with these words I'm hoping for good things to come afterwards, I'm just thinking of something that I made up earlier. Well,maybe it's recording and maybe it's not. I'm hoping for a good old guest spot, I'm wearing the right shoes Adidas I read "The Empty Space" with my best friend, he yelled at me said I was acting childish, maybe I'll turn invisible for the springtime, maybe think of something else in the meanwhile... Rows and Rows of Roses

I've Got a Friend Named Rob who sells hot tubs everyday he wakes up, he's gotta sell those hot tubs I know by 12 o clock, he's looking at his watch He's working so hard, can't find another job And he packs his lunch, and he takes the bus He's on the route, but he's not making stops By the way, Rob's made up, but he could be our sing-along messiah I've been to Michigan, don't know why I said that Half of this is written and about the other half I'll just make it up Annoying on purpose I'm on the route and I'm not making stops.

My hair is combed and I am good to go Standing at my post before the holy throne And I feel the worst when I am church I am far from immersed Outside’s the world where life is oozing Sunshine chocolate Get up. When I get up in my get up You know I donkey down I sing at church and I rehearse my prayers Living well Springtime means sugar and birds at their feeders I’ve been done with easter since junior year Life is oozing I wish I could close my eyes without organ music fading in
10.
From my window My lights controlled I am always making shaky shadow Me? I’m just a germ in our culture Some little something like a blueberry seed In a fire station there’s a Dalmatian And the firemen play chess on his back And the queen is next to the king And the bishops rest on Rolling Stone stacks Like a blueberry seed, a garage sale detail, A drip in a cavern, a baby whale, my cut scabbing over, A yellow pushpin, a mother’s collection, a jewel box constellation
11.
My heart is a shark, swimming with big teeth, big ocean to swim in My heart is an apple, crispy and red, fits in your hand My ideas, man They’re so grubby together They should shower together I don’t know maybe the ice should stay water Running Water My soul is a piece of Anthracite Coal, pitch black like deep in a shaft My body is a mannequin, begging for magic, poised and plastic The magic is in my hands, the wet cement I’m not Jesus but watch me perform miracles, I take a lil bit of water and turn it into this guitar solo My brain is a cactus, filled with secret water My brain is an orange, only oranger Orange you glad I am who I am?
