Loving is fine
We all want to find out compliment
Someone to hold while we ferment
Sharing our bones
Before we go we want that six foot hole
Dug for two
I want it to work
I'm tired of being the jerk
I want to be stitched in your needle work
Trapped in your quilt
Sipping red wine in this old Turkish Yurt
That we built
Monogamy
Polyamory I don't care for the titles, see
I just want to focus my time on you and me
It'd be cool to submit
Get attached at the hip
Domestic partnership
By the script
No guilt trip
We're all flawed
Get a grip
You've got me wrapped up like a boa constrictor
You're my saint and my sinner
My breakfast, lunch, and dinner
Maybe I love you
Who'm I kidding, baby I love you
All of your love
It makes me go wild

Faded Huaraches

Oh damn, she's got a steadfast hand
Wrapped around me like a rubber band
That for sure is true
She says where's that devil's touch?
That prince charming bit just ain't enough
Let a little loose
She makes me grab hold of the bathroom sink
Doesn't really care what anyone thinks
Throw me up against the wall
Dragged your nails down my poppied arm
I'll wear it like my charm
It's crazy, you make evil look so good
Let's start a fire in West Hollywood
Wake up the neighborhood
She holds back my wrists with her hands
Kisses both my lips, no command
Shows me all her tricks, sleight of hand
Rips off my huaraches covered in sand
She makes my cheeks go rosey red
She's got the light switch arms reach from her bed
She can hear me when I start to wail
Reminds me to inhale

Way Down South

I woke up from a four year sleep
Black tar covering my feet and
Lipstick stained both my cheeks
Static on the T.V. screen and
Scratch marks trail down my back
Telling stories both good and bad
About planes, trains, video games
Girls, pearls, and Mary Jane
Oh, I don't reckon you'd find
A tune that's worth wasting my time
Oh, it's blowing my mind
I'm going way down south
See what it's all about
Will they sell my soul?
If I play rock and roll
I'm going way down south
I'm going way down south
Hotel bars, neighbors yards
Fooling you to think that I'm a star
I've played somber schtick
Punk rock prick
Monotonous motif masochist
And I can feign
A smile on my own
Without needing to groan
How do I keep from losing face?
In this town of polished waste
Four chords on my guitar
Seems to make anyone a star
How do I stay avant garde
I'm going way down south
See what it's all about
Will they sell my soul?
If I play rock and roll
I'm going way down south
I'm going way down south

New Frontiers

My early years a friend premiered a new frontier
Without seeming too cavalier
"Your time to shine is here"
You must become the rising sun, the west thats won
Use the music to overcome
And maybe have some fun
Let me go
I want to know
I'm taking this time
Call it a crime
Enchanting walk those scarlet locks, leather boot hawk
We walk inside and make the hold room stop
Can't go back now, don't make a sound
I'll hang around
I'm inundated by the weight that you've found
It's got me pinned to the ground
Let me go
I want to know
I'm taking this time
Call it a crime
