Got Our Share

Head into the deli looking for a seltzer
Too worn out from the humid summer swelter in my town
Oh yeah
Walking around aimless with a broken toe
Tried to tell my friends but
They didn't care to know about my pain
They got theirs
We all got our share
Everyone's psychotic I don't know what I need
How about a dog and some legal jersey weed for this old girl
Uh huh
Running high on coffee anxiety and fear
Tried to tell my family but
They don't wanna hear about my pain
They got theirs
We all got our share
Kitten on the street took it home it gave me fleas
Nine years later and I still got the keys to my place
That's right
Talk is always cheap oh but now my world is shrinking
Tried to say hello but people busy thinking bout their pain
And that's fair
We all got our share

Several Months
01:45

Well it's been several months and I still love you
Though I really really try not to
I think of things you did to make me hate you more
But I wish we could forget and go back to before
Cause it's been several months and I still love you
Though I really really try not to
I remember how I felt when it was going bad
And I guess this makes more sense but it still makes sad
Well it's been several months and I still love you

Four Letters

I just wanna have sex all the time
I hope that you appreciate my honesty
This doesn't mean that I don't like to wine and dine
But I have much more fun when you're going down on me
Put down your book stop watching the news
Forget about your afternoon gym exercise
I know how we can rid the five pounds we wanna lose
And it starts with your face in between my thighs
I want you baby
And you want me
So let's turn off the lights and
Shut the tv
And fuck
I'm glad I took that yoga class thought it was a waste
But now I'm as flexible as I can get
It comes in handy when I go down for a taste
And everything is absolutely soaking wet
Kissing your neck chest and lips
So intense I could make you have a muscle spasm
And with my hands holding your ass and your hips
Hope that I can give you a good orgasm
I want you baby
And you want me
So let's turn off the lights and
Shut the tv
And fuck

California

California you've been on my mind for so long now
I think about the sun
I tell myself I'm done
With bitter cold
But I can't seem to go
California you've been in my heart for so long now
I think about the coast
Back east I am a ghost
Of myself
But I can't seem to go
Well there's a light inside of me
Behind some dark gray clouds
Look real hard and you will see
That there's lots to cry about
So why should it matter
Where I am
Warmth or in the snow
You can't run away from your own thoughts
They will follow you wherever you go
California you've been on my mind for so long now

Mothers Are Important
02:18
|

Mothers are important because they help you out so much
They make you feel better with a simple hug or touch
They can make you crazy then you start yell
And then there's a big fight
You tell your mom she can go straight to hell
But you know deep down she's probably right
Mothers are important because they want whats best for you
They can always tell when somethings wrong
Or if you're feeling blue
It can seem like they won't get out of your hair
Every conversation is like a test
Just when you think your life isn't fair
You remember your mom is kind of the best
There were times with you
I didn't think we'd make it through
We both wanted to hide
Instead we tried
Now we're on the other side
Mothers are important because they remind you of what you can be
They teach you how to love and how to trust
How to fight back gracefully
Some people have one mom some have two
Living nearby or far
Some people have moms that have moved on
But you can love your mom wherever they are
Yes you can love your mom wherever they are

Upstairs
03:08
|

We've been through so much after all these years
Like when I hit the broom on the ceiling
Cause you made too much noise for my delicate ears
These walls are so thin
Truly I don't know why
But when I hear your laugh from the apartment above
It makes me wanna stab myself in the eye
You are an upstairs neighbor
Without an upstairs neighbor
Will the yelling and the stomping and jumping ever stop
You are an upstairs neighbor
Without an upstairs neighbor
And I hate you
Cause you live on the top
Remember the time when early every morn
The alarm vibrated on my ceiling
Waking me up like a military horn
Let's not forget when your roommate
Broke down our door
Or when the toilet overflowed into our home
Now please don't make me
Listen to your emo music anymore
You are an upstairs neighbor
Without an upstairs neighbor
Will the yelling and the stomping and jumping ever stop
You are an upstairs neighbor
Without an upstairs neighbor
And I hate you
Cause you live on the top
Maybe one day you'll move far away
And I'll feel peaceful inside
Even if you go deep down I know
As long as I am underneath
I'll never be satisfied
You are an upstairs neighbor
Without an upstairs neighbor
Will the yelling and the stomping and fucking ever stop
You are an upstairs neighbor
Without an upstairs neighbor
And I hate you
Cause you live on the top

In Too Deep
03:49

Well who could have predicted this
Certainly not me
Out of the blue this did arise
So surprisingly
One step at a time is what I know
I have to do
Can't get ahead of myself
Just because it's new
My heart is a muscle like yours
It's been very broken before
So if you wanna take a leap
Let's make a promise we can keep
That we won't get in too deep
Disconcerting way to feel
Everything so nice
Then again have to question
Are we walking on thin ice
Nobody ever got anywhere
By being afraid
Taking chances bravery
That's how history was made
My heart is a muscle like yours
It's been very broken before
So if you wanna take a leap
Let's make a promise we can keep
That we won't get in too deep
It's true that with this risk
We might fail
Or we could take a chance
And prevail
I know this is going fast
And we've got ghosts in our past
But if you wanna try
Then I do too
My heart is a muscle like yours
It's been very broken before
So if you wanna take a leap
Let's make a promise we can keep
That we won't get in too
Won't get in too
Won't get in too deep

The Coven
03:56

Memories as far as the mind can see
Cycling through every room
A place to feel so free
Never sure if I should
Leave it all behind
Wondering about a visit from time to time
Paint the walls start another year
Confiding all my dreams
No one will ever hear
Isn't it so lovely to endure the pain
Fumbling for meaning
But at least I still remain
At the coven
You can feel it
A glittering heart
At the coven
You can find it
A life to start
Everyone has a tale to tell
Collecting all the parts
That you remember well
Time is quick don't let it slip away
Breathing in the future
But still missing yesterday
At the coven
You can feel it
A glittering heart
At the coven
You can find it
A life to start
At the coven
You can feel it
A glittering heart
At the coven
You can find it
A life to start

Don't You Wanna Love Me
03:02

Don't you wanna get naked with me tonight
Laying in bed
Holding each other
So fucking tight
Don't you wanna get naked with me tonight
Don't you wanna love me til the day I die
Don't you wanna get crazy with me tonight
Knock a few back
Ride on the subway
Turn out the lights
Don't you wanna get crazy with me tonight
Don't you wanna love me til the day I die
I die I die
Don't you wanna get emotional with me tonight
Tell your deepest secrets
And your darkest fears
I'll make everything all right
Don't you wanna get naked and crazy and emotional
With me tonight
Don't you wanna love me til the day I die
Don't you wanna love me
Oh don't you wanna love me
Don't you wanna love me til the day I die

Cobwebs

Well you haven't been touched in a long time
No you can't remember when
Feeling like a rusty tin man
You need to get oiled up again
Well the river used to be flowing
But now there's a big old drought
I tried to use my hand
But you don't understand
That's not what I'm about
Which is why there's
Cobwebs in my pussy
Cobwebs in my pussy
Don't know why
It's so dry
Wish someone would tell me
Why there's cobwebs in my pussy
Well I open my legs and bats fly out
I'm like where did these bats come from
Like a rusty hinge
On a dusty day
Creaking like a barn door
On a broken wednesday
Dry as a bone is what I'm telling you ah
Sahara desert ain't got nothing
On my hoo ha
Cobwebs in my pussy
Cobwebs in my pussy
Don't know why
It's so dry
Wish someone would tell me
Why there's cobwebs in my pussy
Cobwebs in my pussy
(She was such a nice girl)
Cobwebs in my pussy
(Oooh ooh ooh)
Cobwebs in my pussy
(Now she lives alone with thirty seven cats)
Cobwebs in my pussy
(Ooh yeah yeah yeah)
Don't know why
It's so dry
Wish someone would tell me
Why there's cobwebs in my pussy
