Covered in mud to be clean of the soap Licking the stamp on a fresh envelope All the right lingo to see what you mean Never denying the pope Slating your own pantomime Holding your head to mine Hearing your heartbeat reduce Letting your whims on the loose Covered in cobalt to keep yourself clean Reading the shape of a glock magazine If you can’t swallow Be sure not to choke on the last of your cocaine remains Fleeing your own carnival Pondering the where and the how and why Only to dine on the rope Where is my fresh envelope now Covered in mud to be clean of the soap Polish the antlers on your antelope All the right wingers will see what they’ve done Done, to everyone Slating your own pantomime Holding your head just a bit above the water line Hearing your heartbeat reduce Mixing your whiskey with juice Fleeing your own carnival Pondering the where and the how and why Do it unless I refuse Wishing your whiskey was booze Slating your own pantomime Holding your head to mine Hearing your heartbeat reduce Letting your whims on the loose Fleeing your own carnival Pondering the where and the how and why Only to dine on the rope Where is my fresh envelope now

Oop I got a feeling that I have a debt to pay Roll another cigarette and hope it goes away Watching all the little piggy rolling in the dung Back is heavy, all a sudden, gonna get a punctured lung Open up and see a little desperate and Depressive on the pressure of the air that you will breath Hopin that your mother cannot see what you have done Smokin like a troubadour you’re gonna get a punctured lung Sing a song a penny if the song it will be sung What was up with Jenny when he made a Gump run Puffing up a hurricane, could it be perhaps Feeling like a lung in me oh surely will collapse I’m sealin’ up the lie Done Howlin’ at the moon Won’t be a sewin my Lung puncture very soon When I get to going well I’d rather use a gun If I had the option then I think I would be hung Wheezing out a tI ny little hole beneath your ribs Never was the image that you had when we were kids Never was the image that you had when you were young When a healthy future was on the tip of your tongue Was all the intoxication a form of release Or a way to surely make your organs all decease Chorus Open up and see a little desperate and Depressive on the pressure of the air that you will breath Hope you share the way in how the draining will be done Either way you never ever wanna get a punctured lung Oop I got a feeling that I have a debt to pay Roll another cigarette and hope it goes away Watching all the piggys oh and the shit’ll be flung Back is heavy, all a sudden, gonna get a punctured lung Sing a song a penny if the song it will be sung If I had the option then I think I would be hung Wheezing out a tiny little hole beneath your ribs Never was the image that you had when we were young When I get to going well I’d rather use a gun Climbing up a ladder and I’m slippin on a rung Falling to a heavy drop and now I hear the claps Shit I think a lung in me has finally collapsed

Love Canoe 05:20
Would you board a Love Canoe? For it’s only built for two Which is your determined side? I like right What’ll it be to get flying Board a Love Canoe Reaching out Out into the blue Which is your determined side? I like right I know you get me down Even in the wind Rowing it away But would you board a Love Canoe I’m bored of waiting round Doubting what to do What’ll it be to get flying Board a love canoe Stroking all the waves On a new lagoon Rippling out upon the tide I like life What’ll it be to get flying Board a Love Canoe Reaching out Out into the blue Which is your determined side? I like right Would you board a Love Canoe? For it’s only built for two Which is your determined side? I like right

No one’s working anymore You took the diamonds and you rolled them around To make them look proud We’re rolling down the river It’s so slow I look at you naked Swimming around When the water sweeps you clear Don’t forget to breath my dear

Life is a river Build a rope swing Come tumbling down You don’t know How many lives you’ve skimmed a stone upon But I do Loads and loads Got a real neat bivouac I built But I couldn’t sleep For the bear is Right outside my tent Or is it you? Or is it you? I couldn’t do half Of whatever you could do Life’s a stream and You’re supreme and Still I dream of That old rope swing Come tumbling down…

Cellophane 02:39
Cellophane I'm walking on cellophane Why does it see through me? And why can't I see through? Cellophane I'm walking... I'm walking on Cellophane And when you sell your soul And when you sell your soul to the devil Everyday it's pouring down Get yourself a raincoat Cos you won't miss me now Mary Jane Oh you again You ain't kind eyes to leave me blind Cellophane I'm walking on cellophane Cellophane I'm walking I'm walking on Cellophane And when you sell your soul And when you sell your soul to the devil

Slumber 03:37
Would you, board a love canoe? For it’s, only built for two Which is, your determined side? I like right Quiet When you’re sleeping Don’t wake the babe From a slumber Silent When you’re creeping Don’t wake the babe Don’t wake the babe Feet down On the man’ll go Headlong Into the unknown Witches owning all the spells Of your love In my head Quiet When you’re sleeping Don’t wake the babe From a slumber Silent When you’re creeping Don’t wake the babe Don’t wake the babe
