Chicken Bones

it’s a chicken world
now that you feed it
all of it whirls
taking observed to see unknown
feed it the dirt
now that you need her all unearthed
like a birth
woke me in delight
when you need me I’ll be grown
something bleeds when I’m alone
in the blue night
when you need me I’ll be home
calling years across the phone
stuck in July
better a girl
now that you need it
give her a whirl
taking her world out where they go
give her the worm
taken what’s needed
show her concern
give it deserved
tell her it’s alright
when you need me I’ll be grown
I can feel it alone
holding her tight
with the pieces I don’t know
she can spin through the unknown
living daylight
what’s with the world?
Now that you need it
has unfurled
chicken girl showed you a green light
cover the curls
bury the feeling
of the world
coming concerned
shuddering delight
when you need me I’ll be grown
in a park under the dome
stuck in July
hack a hint of old cologne
in my basement with the bones
in the blue night

Her Geography

knew a guy who moved like a private man honest existence in the bitter sands
soundcloud bands and myspace fans and sail the boats of history and dive in
Haunted like me and my ghost holds and im a riot for me.
we won’t bang it out (pay it out) in summer breeze, flying private soulseek
got up to shiver out our apologies the consequences of her geography
teens who cry when their phones die and salvage wreck for me with three more grand

well you won't catch me on a racetrack
well i don't think i could ever do
well i'm old and clever in a haystack
on my own i slither all away
guide me or take it in the face
well i won't not ever want to fake that
well i won't not give it all away

not here to play thru/golf on the green believe
what would a pale do? can I dream for me?
check to find the river ball it rolled up under rocks it
testifies the talent pool it rectifies my pockets
what would a male do? Come to the sea complete
sunny one debut forever/given to cheat
lets apply the swing it sings out left to find the greater things and
rusty iron embarrassing (rusty? I’m embarrassing) by the airport I’m waiting
what would a male do? Play with the breeze, compete
sunny one debut forever/given to cheat
I couldn’t find you Lost in the trees oh please
Funny when they lose but never
happened to me

I got a right to hide
I got two lips and thighs
no matter where I am
no matter with what band
And this is what I’ll bring to you
cold connections with bold choices
no matter where I am
no matter with what band
I got a right to hide
I got two lips and thighs
no matter where I am
no matter with what band
And this is what I’ll bring to you
cold connections with bold choices
From morning to midnight
can’t control your life

who gets along with every song?
a deep belief in everyone?
the cheaper thrill of gamer kills
and in his eyes the terror drills
it's everywhere goes
he take it to shows
and need her a phone
he leave him alone
a sake of God
a baker bong
far greater haul
when class is gone
to take it to the evening news
the metal gray the big parade
bring on the bell
and bring the hell
squeeze out the fire for show & tell
so lose yr blues
enjoy the view
and in his eyes the terror too

#1 is on the run
the ropes
see the guy
standing knee high
one and done
miles of sun deny
get it up
get the scene right or get a real life
standing out at the show i know you'll go get some delight
shun for fun or find a gun like a tie
get enough
til' your knee sighs
mind undone
the harder one relies
get it up
get the mean right we're getting real high
standing out at the show i know you'll go get some delight
or get a real life
standing out at the show i know you'll go get some delight

on the northline

Shoals of Herring
02:47
|

|
Oh it was a fine and a pleasant day
Out of Yarmouth harbour I was faring
As a cabin boy on a sailing lugger
For to hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman
You can swear show a manly barren
Take your turn and watch with the other fellas
As you hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Well I earned my keep and I paid my way
And I earned the gear that I was wearing
I sailed a million miles, caught ten million fishes
We were dreaming of the shoals of herring
Night and day the seas were daring
Come wind oh come more winter again
Sweating or cold, growing up, growing old, Or dying
As we dream about the shoals of herring

I got trampled by my woman.
I've been cheated and double-crossed.
There was a coup in the alter.
I had a friend but he got lost.
They say time can take the pain away, because time changes everything.
But time forgot to change my heart. Yes time forgot to change my heart.
He took my woman into the country and they had a baby girl
and she grew to look just like me. It's a mean and wicked world.
So i took a train into that country and I found their little shack.
I went to drink until the sun set and in the darkness I came back
But they say time can take the pain away, because time changes everything. But time forgot to change my heart. Yes time forgot to change my heart.
Outside their window I was creeping, wicked thoughts they filled my mind.
And as my old friends laid there sleeping I snuck in from behind.
And I knelt down by baby's bedside and I grazed her lily face.
Please listen to your mother dear, for your father's a disgrace.
