Kick Drum

Unlock your antlers
Break into canter
The human condition
The heat of the big sun
The beat of the kick drum
The heat of the big sun
The beat of the kick drum
Unlock your mind now
Pull back the blinds now
True taste of freedom
The beat of the kick drum
The heat of the big sun
The beat of the kick drum
Were you ever unaware of
The space you occupy in the air?
I never wanted to realize
Take me back and cover my eyes

I don’t want to cry the night away
And I don’t want to get up off the floor
But you say, “let’s go out and dance the night away”
Takes some time, but you get me out the door
I am young
Teach me how to have fun
Coloured lights and smoky sauna rooms
I’m alone with all these lonely faces
I just want the sun to shine today
I just want to dream of happy places
I am young
Teach me how to have fun
Oh I, I am young
Teach me how to have fun, fun, fun!
Can’t shake this,
Do you know how it is?
To numb yourself
While searching for bliss
Knives and limes and whiskey melodies
Your smile is my only reassurance
I am young
Teach me how to have fun
Oh I, I am young
Teach me how to have fun, fun, fun!

Candied Heart
04:20
|

Just another day in the life
Just another candle burning bright
Flicker in the light of a full moon
Dancing on the tips of my fingers in the living room
Sun’s rising later every day now
Cold light doesn’t warm my heart, no
Drops of rain turn to ice
No it doesn’t warm my heart
Tears it all apart
Sky of black and lips of blue
On my candied heart, inscribed, “I want you”
The day takes it all away from me
Cutting my hair, like Delilah she kills me
At night I come back to life
The moon and I talk ‘till we see the light

Sprinkle on a Cake
05:13

Happy birthday baby
You’re my favourite friend
We’re the best of friends
But do you really know me?
Cause I think we’re friends
But then again
We just met
Kiddies in the corner, filling up on cake
(Licking off the icing)
Why must we rehash all our past mistakes?
(The icing on the cake)
Tonight you’re a sprinkle on a cake that is the world
But a cute one, but a great little sprinkle, oh you!

The Royal We
08:15
|

I was born with dark blue eyes
My first sound was a cry
I am an individual
I am your majesty
I am the royal We
I am a social animal
Ahh
What are we if not with each other?
Ahh
You’re warm and I’m warm
We can dance alone or together
We rain and we storm
The royal We determines the weather
The taste of nothingness
Lingers on my lips
I need to see, to be authentically
Ahh
What are we if not with each other?
Ahh
You’re warm and I’m warm
We can dance alone or together
We rain and we storm
The royal We determines the weather

Peach
04:52
|

Like the syrup in a pie
Running down your forehead and in your eye
It’s sweet, but it burns
It’s sweet, but it burns
Fuzzy feeling in my head
Thinking over what you said
It’s sweet, but it burns
It’s sweet, but it burns
Drop down, get up
Put a little peach in my cup
Drop down, get up
Put a little peach in my cup
My cup
Out of my mouth, into the cup
Pouring it out, filling it up
Taking it off, turning it on
Starting out soft, making it last long
Pull my hair and it falls out
Move around and all about
You’re sweet, but you burn
You’re sweet, but you burn
Drop down, get up
Put a little peach in my cup
Drop down, get up
Put a little peach in my cup
My cup
Out of my mouth, into the cup
Pouring it out, filling it up
Taking it off, turning it on
Starting out soft, making it last long
Out of my mouth, into the cup
Pouring it out, filling it up
Taking it off, turning it on
Starting out soft, making it last long

Haircut

I don’t know where it is that I’m going
Seems I’ve lost everything I had along the way
I cut my hair, but it’ll keep growing
And that’s the way my life will go, all the same
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh
Oh the places you’ll go, if you can just dream it
Is what I thought when I was young and so naïve
As I wander aimlessly through my childhood fantasies
I seek to find myself and what to believe
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh ahh
We’re getting older, yet time stands still
Should I not try to see the world while I still can?
But how do I get there? I don’t even have bus fare
So I resort to getting lost in my dreams
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ahh ahh
(I just want to get lost in the woods behind my house
I was just want to pick some grass, throw it in the fire and watch it burn)
