Ezmerelda
03:13

(Verse One)
There she blows
The rabbit, the hole
Out of control
Still in control
Powder your nose
With a Benjamin hose
Your mamma
She don't know
Oh Ezmerelda, how they love you
Oh Ezmerelda, how they love you
(Verse Two)
It's not coming back
The rabbit, the hat
You sat upon that
(You killed a cat?)
Powder him back
With a Banjamin waft
Your mama
She don't ask
Oh Ezmerelda, how they love you
Oh Ezmerelda, how they love you
(Chorus)
I can't help you anymore
Because your crazy like a banshee
(Verse Three)
The rabbit is gone
The powder is gone
Benjamin's gone
Everything's gone
Time to unthaw
Undo the wrong
If mama
Only saw
Oh Ezmerelda, how they love you
Oh Ezmerelda, how they love you
(Verse Four)
There she blew
Many, not few
There was no away
She even got you
And Stephen too
(And Stephen too?)
If mama
Only knew
Oh Ezmerelda, how they love you
Oh Ezmerelda, how they love you
(Chorus)
I can't help you anymore
Because your crazy like a banshee
Because you're nuttier than squirrel shit

Wicked
03:34
|

(Intro)
There are times in this life
When we feel the need to be good
And then there are times in this life
When we feel the need to do bad, bad things
And this is one of those times
(Chorus)
I've been wicked
We've all been wicked
Mucking and a' raking in the rue
I've been wicked
We've all been wicked
Your bald-headed granny, too
(Verse)
Me and Ol' Henry
Barking at the night
Fighting with the men in blue
Yeah, they look at us funny
And wonder where the money
Came from and where we got these suits
Yeah, we went and stole them
We like to break the law
Be bad and blow things up
We are forever young
And we will do whatever we want
(Chorus)
I've been wicked
We've all been wicked
Mucking and a' raking in the rue
I've been wicked
We've all been wicked
Your bald-headed granny, too
I've been wicked
We've all been wicked
What's a dog to do?
Howling at the moon
Baby, I'm wicked
Through and through

Animal
03:37
|
|||
(Chorus)
I want to be an animal
Do you want to be an animal?
What have you come here for?
Leave your human at the door
(Verse)
You could be a fish
Or you could be a frog
Or you could be a cat
Or you could be a dog
Or you could be a monkey
Or you could be a hog
Or you could be anything you want
I want to be an animal

Dilated Eyes
03:44
|
|||
(Verse One)
Whoopsie daisy
Lick the walls
Lick the walls
It's not that crazy
You're crooked baby
But you will not fall
Why you lookin' at your feet, girl?
Don't do that at all
(Verse Two)
Whoopsie daisy
You're not quite here
So whatever you do
Don't look in the mirror
When books and language
Will make it sound
As if you're lost
When you're really found
(Chorus)
Aigh yigh yigh
My dilated eyes
See things I know aren't real
Aigh Yigh Yigh
I think I can fly
This tingle inside I fell
(Verse Three)
Don't you tell me why
I got to have it now
And whatever I do
Yes, I am going to milk that cow
Land lady lady don't tell me why
I got to have it now
And whatever I do
Yes, I am going to milk that cow
(Chorus)
Aigh yigh yigh
My dilated eyes
See things I know aren't real
Aigh Yigh Yigh
I think I can fly
This tingle inside I fell
(Bridge)
Me, my feet, my face, my skin cells, my nipples and my brain
Love the beating trance
He who makes a beast of himself
Gets rid of the pain of being a man

Like The Movies
02:40
|
|||
(Chorus)
You make love like real life
And she makes love like the movies
(Verse One)
I love you babe, but unfortunately
Lust is a fizzling finical flame
The fires were heavy when we met that day
Your homemaker booty, it blew me away
But now you've gone and let your rump
Your rump hang low, while you cook that roast
Singin' perk it up baby, I don't wanna make it love
I want it rough, let's shake things tonight
(Chorus)
You make love like real life
And she makes love like the movies
(Verse Two)
I don't love her, but unfortunately
She gives me things that you cannot give me
She lets me do things you will not let me
And I am not just talking sexually
Everything is like a movie with her
And when I'm with you, I am in real life
The imagination doesn't want to make love
It wants it rough, let's shake things tonight

The Clams and I
03:58
|
|||
(Verse One)
Cool, low, steady, you were once tame
But you built your pool with no drain
And you put your finger in my brain
Now the clams and I...
(Chorus One)
We've got claims
We've got fire
We've got guns
We've got desire
(Verse Two)
Feel no pain, numb, sane is when you're deaf, dumb and blind
And crazy is touching and feeling and opening eyes
I had my soda pop then I loaded my gun
I've got to save her from...
(Chorus Two)
The house of the rising sun
Is it too late?
What have we done?
What have we made?
(Verse Three)
A cool, lonely, enchanting, sizzling night
You must leave...
(Chorus Three)
Before sunrise
It's not too late
There's still time
There's still a way

(Intro)
Ladies and gentlemen, fish and clams
And to all the fatback hams that roam this land
Come, and bear witness to the...
(Verse)
One-Armed One-Legged One-Eyed Unicycle Man
I want to buy you a whiskey
I want to talk about your history
And how you do the things you do
One-Armed One-Legged One-Eyed Unicycle Man
How do you do the things you do?
The world they call you a fool
But they are blind, and you are king
(Lift)
Hit me
Hit me
Hit me
Hit me
All aboard
Get ready
Get set
And go!
One-Armed One-Legged One-Eyed Unicycle Man!

Gotta Get It
04:17
|
|||
(Verse One)
I ain't got no money
But I sure got soul
So spread some of that honey
Up on that jelly roll
Yeah, I ain't got no Cadillac
But I got them horns
And I got that funky rhythm
Since the day I's born
Gotta get it
(Verse Two)
I ain't got no money
But I sure got soul
Yeah, we like the kind that jingles
But love the kind that folds
(My bucket got a hole in it)
Gotta get it

Straight To Hell
03:36
|
|||
(Verse One)
Everyone has at least one secret
Things they think you'll never understand
Could it be you were formerly a woman?
Or accidentally once killed a man?
Everyone is a big fat message
They themselves have yet to figure out
Why they made all those bad, bad choices...
All the pride, greed, lust and doubt
(Chorus)
And I too will not tell
I will take my secrets with me straight to hell
(Verse Two)
I sat down and I wrote you a letter
Detailing my dirty dreams
And I will never, ever send it
And every time we talk I do not mention these things
Am I a bad, bad man?
Or is it a mad, mad world?
Like when he told you that he did not touch her
He was lying to you girl
(Chorus)
And I too will not tell
I will take my secrets with me straight to hell

Goodnight Moon
02:15
|
|||
(Verse)
Stay with me a while, if you want to
Lay your head to rest
Play your favorite song
The one about the vagabond
Who strayed away from the nest
I never wanted Beelzebub in your heart
But on nights like tonight we're all looking for light
Wandering around in the dark
(Chorus)
Goodnight moon
Goodnight stars
Goodnight scallywag streets
Alleys and vagabond bars
And goodnight to you
Wherever it is you are
On nights like tonight we're all looking for light
Wandering around in the dark
