Thee of The Thirsty Fist
03:28

i went out last night to the middle of the moon
i guess they call the place the thirsty fist
on the tv a roadrunner cartoon
seemed like the coyote was already blitzed
sat down at the bar to unscrew my head
out popped a ghost with a bone guitar
ordered up a drink called the nuclear warhead
and took a little sip from the pickle jar
he looked me in the eyes as he sang his song
the one about the wooden indian
the one about the yeti, and jack the ripper
the one about the future death machine
got me kinda thinking about the muted tv
why's my life always seem like a cartoon
i'm always chasing down the coyote
i'm always thirsty in the dark saloon
who's gunna play the thirsty fist tonight?
who's gunna play the thirsty fist tonight?
too often in love with the twisted gold girls
with the jangly teeth and the cactus curls
with the skulls and guernica tattoos
i can picture you in the blue swimming pool
i see you over there on the pinball machine
think it's the one about ACDC
your eyebrow went up like a curly fry
my heart spun in a circle and hit the sky
well times like these wish i could play guitar
like the ghost in my skull with the pickle jar
shadows on the wall too big too small
dancing with the birds nest disco ball
well the sun man bum rushed me right out the door
said he couldn't respect a hedonist
but the moon man bum rushed me right back inside
get thee back into the thirsty fist
who's gunna play the thirsty fist tonight?
who's gunna play the thirsty fist tonight?

Lightning Bug

hey kid crash and fall
surf it down minimal
now you can dream alone
now you can dream alone
now you can dream alone
now you can dream
open the door walk away
welcome to your escape
think you could take me home
think you could take me home
think you could take me home
think you could
take me to your place
lightning bug, lightning bug
pioneers of the wreck
nevermind all the mess
always you say to me
always you say to me
always you say
hold me in your hug
i can be your lightning bug
under a dying moon
under a dying moon
under a dying moon
under a night that dies too soon
lightning bug, lightning bug

Halfway Gone
02:54
|

alone again
impossible to say
do you feel okay?
halfway gone again
unable to explain
why you laugh always
i'm not the only one
who is seeing it now for what it is
i'm not the only one
but i'm fooling myself for you
i'm not the only one
think he's wasting everybody's time
gone again
another runaway
how you came to be
how's this go again
a fuzzy memory
are we all deadbeats?
i'm not the only one
who is seeing you now in a new light
i'm not the only one
but i'm fooling myself for who?
i'm not the only one
think he's wasting everybody's time

Afterglow

take the afterglow
put it in a coke bottle
light the fire make it
take off into your head
break the groove made you dead
like a little noise anyway
caught another boy today
put 'em in your pocket baby
let 'em burn let 'em stay
let 'em go let 'em fade
i don't wanna run
i don't wanna run away
of all the people you gunna blame
of all the people you gunna blame
of all the people you gunna blame
so what's in front of you now
a ten cent merry-go-round
put it in your pipe and smoke it
smoke rising up into the night
poison blue vision of fright
i don't wanna run
i don't wanna run away
of all the people you gunna save
of all the people you gunna save
of all the people you gunna save

Midnight Invaders
02:44
|

i found the midnight sun
dying in the old arcade
her eyes were rainbow smiles
seeing through the endless days
we played space invaders
jumping through the window of the game
none of us ever knew her
or the real meaning of her pain
she was the wonder drug
she was the black rainbow
so we lit the arcade fire
but she was all indigo
we played spy hunter
blasting all the enemies away
none of us ever knew her
or the real meaning of today

I Might Be Broken
03:09
|
|||
i was afraid of the illusion
burning the ghost moon everyday
it'll blow you up, water you down
pull you laughing from the burning
downtown
no illusion, i can't understand myself
hollow vision, i think i might be broken
with your perfect lollipops
ten-cent dancing to the bunny hop
it makes me nervous, it makes me cold
a little confused when you melt into
solid gold
no illusion, i think it might be magic
hollow vision, who's got the remote control
oh wow, oh honestly
your delusion is my biggest pet peeve
who's to say if we push the button
the machinery won't just sputter into life
no illusion, push the button wait and see
holy vision, i think i might be broken

Death Machine

oh death machine
deep in the river
of my lucid dream
show me the knife's edge
of my lucid dream
oh we're holding, oh we're holding
the death machine
now you're having, now you're having
the lucid dream
weird memory
climbing the treehouse
of my fever dream
undercover freakout
of my fever dream
all my weirdo, all my weirdo
memories
yeah we're holding, yeah we're holding
the death machine
oh no more days
waiting for the breakdown
somebody's name
written on the playground
written on the playground
oh i'm riding oh i'm riding
the death machine
keep on riding, keep on riding
the death machine
yeah we're living, yeah we're living
the death the machine
