John hinkly jr. might have been a little crazy but there ain't nothing wrong with trying to kill the president especially when it's ronald reagan he almost killed us all and John Hinkly jr. Might have been a little crazy for getting so obsessed with Jodie Foster but how can you blame him, when she's so beautiful and he did it all for love, he did it all for love it was all for love John hinkly jr. might have been a little crazy for letting a movie effect him so strongly but Robert Diniro was great back then and it's easy to get swept away If you ask me he was a true romantic like a hero from some faerie tale I just hope someday, someone will love me that way oh I want to be loved, yeah I want to be loved like John loves Jodie I want someone to want to assassinate a president for me.

Well all the Apostles-they're sitting in swings Saying "I'd sell off my Savior for a set of new rings, And some sandles with the style of straps that cling best to the era" So all of the businessers in their unlimited Hell where they buy and they sell and they sell all their Trash to each other but they're sick of it all And they're bankrupt on selling And all of the angel They'd sell off your soul for a set of new wings and anything gold They remember The people they loved their old friends And I've seen through'em all seen through 'em all and seen through most everything All the people you knew were the actors All the people you knew were the actors Well, I'll go to college and I'll learn some big words And I'll talk real loud Goddamn right I'll be heard You'll remember all the guys that said all those big words he must've Learned in college And it took a long time I came clean with myself I come clean out of love with my lover I still love her Loved her more when she used to be sober and I was kinder

You will cough up crows that peck my eyes And I will do nothing but go blind But my heart It has eyes And my love It has sight Even though it may be A little cloudy And you will break my back for all the burdens I lay upon it But I will never blame you for those bees inside this bonnet And my lungs will grow cancers And my back it will grow achy I will buy us an acre Of some land in the city We could live there together Or I'll live alone less happy But I'll live Unfortunately

We live the dream that makes life worth living. We live the dream that makes dreamers keep dreaming. If I had to give it up today, would I be able to just walk away? I have the strength of a hundred men. I have the mind of a goddamn genius. I have a heart that never leaves me cold, but it would break if I were left alone. You are my friends, you are my family. You're more than this. You are my everything. I can't help but cry. I can't help but wonder. Is this ship going down? Is it taking us under? These waves of frustration breaking the mast, shredding the sails and drowning us fast. So let's pray. Let's pray for the sun. Let's pray. Let's pray for the eye of the storm to warm us back up, catch our breath and prepare for the next fucking challenge we know is soon near.

i wish that you would move to the sun cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air and we know that can't be done i wish that you would cheat with someone cause you're like diggin' holes in water and we know that can't be done bravery and stupidity go hand in hand i guess that makes me the bravest man i was quick to learn but slow to understand well, what can you do my theories are borrowed from somewhere else and i never had too many to talk about but you were real quick, you were quick to point out well, that was borrowed too i wish that you would move to the sun cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air and we know that can't be done i wish that you would cheat with someone cause you're like diggin' holes in water and we know that can't be done bravery and stupidity go hand in hand and i guess that makes me the bravest man i was quick to learn but slow to understand well, what can you do rhetoric and smalltalk are marching on and i probably am the biggest pawn cause i was quick to talk and the first to carry on well, what can you do you need a permit if you're gonna build shit and you can't get one so nothing gets built and your house is standing on a foot and a half of silt i wish that you would move to the sun cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air and we know that can't be done i wish that you would cheat with someone cause you're like diggin' holes in water and we know that can't be done rhetoric and smalltalk are marching on and i probably am the biggest pawn cause i was quick to talk and the first to carry on well, what can you do

The drugs you do were made by people who think in dollar signs, and thats not very punk of you, maybe you should change your mind, reconsider the whole deal. And maybe we like to criticize more than we construct, and maybe that's not healthy, maybe that's just plain fucked up, but at least we're saying something, and i hope that no one is listening, because this is kind of embarrassing, and everyone who hears it thinks that we're joking. And maybe we weren't put on this earth to rape and pillage and ravage, because god created puppy dogs and god created kittens, and our love creates a power plant that generates this world, and if we stop now then we'll just disappear into oblivion.

The first letter I wrote you was way too long Way too crazy, way too scary, way too sad The second one I wrote you was way too short Just said, "I love you, baby, please come back." The third one that I wrote you was right down the middle Somehow it didn't quite sum it all up. The fourth one that I wrote you, I did the best that I could do We both know that was never good enough. Oh, I had nothing nice to say, I said it anyway. I made myself feel a little better Oh, but in the end, I guess, It was probably for the best That I never bothered sending you those letters. The fifth one that I wrote you was one big, long joke You probably wouldn't think was very funny The sixth one that I wrote you was a strictly business note Requesting you pay me back that last two months rent money The seventh one was magic, it was totally romantic it would have made your little boxer shorts melt But the eighth time that I tried, I swear I couldn't even write. I just curled up and cried all by myself I had nothing nice to say, I said it anyway. I made myself feel a little better. Oh, but in the end, I guess, it was probably for the best That I never sent you those letters.

a nice heart and a white suit and a baby blue sedan and i am doing the best that i can soon to be eunuchs, they were standing in rows singing, "please stud us out just as fast as you possibly can." sad song, last dance and no one knows who the band was and henry, you danced like a wooden indian She said this one mattered and I felt it had a spirit I shot the stork 'cause I didn't hear it 'til late and it's hard to be a human being and it's harder as anything else and i'm lonesome when you're around and i'm never lonesome when i'm by myself and i miss you when you're around

Loose lips might sink ships but loose kisses take trips To san francisco, double dutch disco, Tech tv hottie, do it for scotty Do it for the living and do it for the dead Do it for the monsters under your bed Do it for the teenagers and do it for your mom Broken hearts hurt but they make us strong and We won't stop until somebody calls the cops And even then we'll start again and just pretend that Nothing ever happened We won't stop until somebody calls the cops And even then we'll start again and just pretend that Nothing ever happened We're just dancing, we're just hugging, Singing, screaming, kissing, tugging On the sleeve of how it used to be How's it gonna be? I'll drop kick russell stover, move into the starting over house And know matt rouse and jest are watching me achieve my dreams And we'll pray, all damn day, every day, That all this shit our president has got us in will go away While we strive to figure out a way we can survive These trying times without losing our minds So if you wanna burn yourself remember that I LOVE YOU And if you wanna cut yourself remember that I LOVE YOU And if you wanna kill yourself remember that I LOVE YOU Call me up before your dead, we can make some plans instead Send me an IM, I'll be your friend Shysters live from scheme to scheme and my 4th quarter pipe dreams Are seeming more and more worth fighting for So I'll curate some situations, make my job a big vacation And I'll say FUCK BUSH AND FUCK THIS WAR My war paint is sharpie ink and I'll show you how much my shit stinks And ask you what you think because your thoughts and words are powerful They think we're disposable, well both my thumbs opposable Are spelled out on a double word and triple letter score We won't stop until somebody calls the cops And even then we'll start again and just pretend that Nothing ever happened We won't stop until somebody calls the cops And even then we'll start again and just pretend that Nothing ever happened We're just dancing, we're just hugging, Singing, screaming, kissing, tugging On the sleeve of how it used to be

Little ghost, little ghost One I'm scared of the most Can you scare me up a little bit of love? I'm the only one that sees you, And I can't do much to please you And it's not yet time to meet the lord above The first moment that I met her I did not expect a specter When I shook her hand I really shook a glove She looked into me so sweetly And we left the room discreetly No one else could know the secret of our love Little ghost, little ghost One I'm scared of the most Can you scare me up a little bit of love? I'm the only one that sees you, And I can't do much to please you And it's not yet time to meet the lord above Every morning I awoke And I see my little ghost Wond'rin' if it's really her that's lying there I lean to touch her and I whisper But not brave enough to kiss her When I held her I was really holding air Little ghost, little ghost One I'm scared of the most Can you scare me up a little bit of love? I'm the only one that sees you, And I can't do much to please you And it's not yet time to meet the lord above Though I try my best to keep it There really was no secret Must have looked like I was dancing with the wall No one else could see this apparition But because of my condition I fell in love with a little ghost and that was all Little ghost, little ghost One I'm scared of the most Can you scare me up a little bit of love? I'm the only one that sees you, And I can't do much to please you And it's not yet time to meet the lord above No, it's not yet time to meet the lord above

The universe will conspire with you to help you do the things you want to do There are no devils down in hell that wish for you to fail, no your worst enemy is you You've got to find your path and follow it and your path will become clear Don't you stray, don't waste a day, don't give into your fears You will see that the world wants you to win, if anyone tells you differently that person's not your friend You should get away from them while you can, because they've given up and they'll bring you down with them You! You don't have to be the one to defeat that evil king and to set your people free But you could if that's what you want to do, and we would all hug you and then you would see That the world is not your enemy, and the point of life is to chase your dreams And as long as you can breathe, and as long as your heart beats then those dreams can be achieved!

I was a quick-wit boy Diving too deep for coins All of your street light eyes Wide on my plastic toys Then when the cops closed the fair I cut my long baby hair Stole me a dog-eared map And called for you everywhere Have I found you? Flightless bird, jealous, weeping Or lost you? American mouth Big pill looming Now I'm a fat house cat Nursing my sore blunt tongue Watching the warm poison rats Curl through the wide fence cracks Pissing on magazine photos Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean Blood of Christ mountain stream Have I found you? Flightless bird, grounded, bleeding Or lost you? American mouth Big pill, stuck going down
