Introverted

I turn my music down on the weekends
I pack my clothes away and wash my hair
I make myself a nice dinner inside
I watch TV in my underwear
Turn off my phone and lock all the doors shut
I haven’t shaved in too long to count
Tell all my friends to go away swiftly
Turn off the lights and get my ass to bed
I’m introverted a little bit perverted
Wake on the wrong side of bed every day
If you want me there’s a better place to be so
Take your pride and just walk away
I met a girl down at the market
She said I had good taste in socks
I tried to say something bout her hair but I
Locked up and bit on my tongue
Went to the pound to find a companion
I want a friend that I can throw a bone
To my dismay they just would not have me
Who could’ve guessed my dog days were done
I’m introverted a little bit perverted
Wake on the wrong side of bed every day
If you want me there's a better place to be so
Take your pride and just walk away
I’m introverted a little bit perverted
Wake on the wrong side of bed every day
If you want me there's a better place to be so
Take your pride and just walk away
I’m introverted a little bit perverted
Wake on the wrong side of bed every day
If you want me there's a better place to be so
Take your pride and just walk away

Pinocchio
03:15

Oh my god I’m running low on creativity
Short on Jedi mind tricks that I use to keep you from confronting me
I was an angel but I lost my need for wings
I keep replacing both my legs to stand on but the fuel must be the thing
Things go wrong when I lie cuz you can tell
The way I remember to go through hell
I don’t want to be a number that you might employ
More than anything I wanna be a real boy
I think I’m getting quite the hang of cutting all my strings
Biting chunks out of the hand that feeds me all these fake and putrid things
Giving my fingers the vacation that they need
Making my way to the hills with dignity and most impressive speed
Pinocchio knows he knows knows he’s going down
Things go wrong when I lie cuz you can tell
The way I remember to go through hell
I don’t want to be an application
I don’t want to be another forgetful face
I don’t want to be a number that you might employ
More than life itself I wanna be a real boy
And someday if I crash and burn and never build a thing
I’ll take you puppets with me when I go

There Goes The Chaperone
02:52
|
|||
Thump thump, who's there?
Someone I shut out long ago
A certain strawberry nose
With an unwarranted ego
Knock knock, who's there?
Is an argument a joke to you
You've got me right where you want me
Now what do you want me to do
And I'm spinning my wheels just to get nowhere
I'm wasting time that could've been spent alone
I don't know how to lie, so I'll just stare
And with a silent snap, there goes the chaperone
Scritch scratch, oh no
They're coming back again
The system everyone knows
Start the countdown backwards from ten
Click click, here comes
A critic to throw off my zen
I can be rigid and frozen, a statue
Wanting to escape through the ink of my pen
And I'm spinning my wheels just to get nowhere
I'm wasting time I shouldn't have spent alone
I see my peak go by, should I send up a flare?
And with a paper slip, there goes the chaperone
And maybe I'm growing as a person
Maybe life's not measured by trophies on a shelf
Maybe I'm discovering who I am and what my goals are
Or maybe I'm just lying to myself
So now I'm spinning my wheels just to get nowhere
I'm wasting time that could've been spent alone
It's a shot in the dark, it's my nightmare
And with a tip of the hat, there goes the chaperone
And with a tip of the hat, there goes the chaperone
And with a tip of the hat, there goes the chaperone

Slumber Jack

And we'll wake up our own terms
Your knees are sore I’m getting bored and my bed is filled with worms
And you say that we're doing fine
Second guessed our GPS and I'd say we're back in line
I’ll wipe out the circles all around my eyes
I’ll cut down the trees on which you bake your cherry pies
So we go out to the theme park
And in a while I start to smile as I see where my ex marks
And you go to the coffee shop
And you pick up but I’m the one who’ll pay it to the top
I’ll wipe out the circles all around my eyes
I’ll cut down the trees on which you bake your cherry pies

I know it’s been a while but I’m sure you can guess
It’s safer in Dallas, Texas than with UPS
I don’t care if they like what they see
I’ll simply build a bonfire and head to the sea
Because I don’t want to die alone no fame is worth that much
No I just wanna grow up and old into a world that won’t hold me down
No I just wanna
I think I know my hands and they’re ready to purge
Because my jokes and pokes and texts to you can’t keep up with my antics
And what I’ve been doing is picking away at my heart just like a surgeon
And I’m frantic
I’m turning straight into him
I might still be a child but I can’t let you win
Because I don’t want to die alone no fame is worth that much
No I just wanna grow up and old into a world that won’t hold me down
No I just wanna
I think it just quite hit me now
I just can’t seem to think of any reason left to frown
I think it just quite hit me now
Call me habitual but I think I’ve figured all this out
I think I wanna girl who can steal my whole heart
But I’m scared to hand the scalpel or throw her a dart
I don’t care if you like what you see
Just promise to build a bonfire and argue with me
If anything ever
Was any bit better
Than you and me whether
It’s birds of a feather
Than don’t for a second think anything of it
Cuz you and me know there’s no one to covet
And reason alone can’t explain why I love it
So don’t you go doubting us in the same old fashion
And please, for me, show some fucking passion
I don’t want to die alone no fame is worth that much
No I just wanna grow up and old into a world that won’t hold me down
No I just wanna kill I don’t want to die no fame is worth that much
No I just wanna grow up and old into a world that won’t hold me down
No I just wanna

The Dancer
03:11

Have you seen the dancer that's on everybody's lips?
Promiscuous, hypnotic with the drifting of her hips
She's draped in silk and satin, spreading love and wealth and lies
Mysterious, erotic with the shifting of her eyes
I wanna know the secrets
That you don't share with the world
I wanna know who it is
Behind that smile and those pearls
Honesty and elegance are foreign to her kind
While modesty and ettiquette hold no place in her mind
Sprawling on the floor, and crawling towards the men
While they're falling into love's abysss, she kisses "Think again"
I wanna know the secrets
That you don't share with the world
I wanna know who it is
Behind that smile and those pearls
Have you seen the dancer that's on everybody's lips?
Promiscuous, hypnotic with the drifting of her hips
She's draped in silk and satin, spreading love and wealth and lies
Mysterious, erotic with the shifting of her eyes

Welcome
03:39
|

Welcome to my store
Feel free to browse around
Just be sure that nothing ends up
On the ground
Because you break you buy
And I don't know why
Anymore
Are you interested in something you see?
Is there anything that I can do?
Can I help you find something you're looking for?
Not something you say, someone like you
Welcome to the cafe
Let me pull out your chair
I'll go grab us a couple of coffees
We can split an eclair
We should do this again
At a quarter to ten
Saturday
Are you interested in something you see?
Is there anything that I can do?
Can I help you find something you're looking for?
Not something you say, someone like you
Welcome to my life
Feel free to stick around
You keep my spirits high
And my feet on the ground
I'll get down on one knee
And I'll ask you to be
My man
Are you interested in something you see?
Is there anything that I can do?
Can I help you find something you're looking for?
Not something you say, someone like you

Who's Keeping
03:15
|

My condo's lease has a stranglehold on me
My winning smile is quickly losing the lead
I wake up every day for a job that could be automated
Was a diamond in the rough, but now I'm jaded
Who's keeping an eye on me
Who's telling them lies
Who's keeping your secrets safe
Who am I to idolize?
Who am I to idolize?
I fold my bills into origami shapes
I take my car to see "Planet of the Apes"
Pixels replace the flame at concerts and a candlelit dinner
My vodka tonic tastes like sparkling paint thinner
Who's keeping an eye on me
Who's telling them lies
Who's keeping your secrets safe
Who am I to victimize?
Who am I to victimize?
Who's keeping an eye on me
Who's telling them lies
Who's keeping your secrets safe
Who am I to patronize?
Who am I to patronize?

Spoiled

Every time you come visit you know I can’t help myself
But pushing flowers is least I can do make you think to take with you
I recall the night was
Late in the fall
The snow was starting blowing
The ground, the ground, the ground, was right above your feet
The street, the street, was somewhere underneath
Your teeth, they bite, the ones that I could see
And you, you spoiled
When you forget yourself and walk outside, will you remember me?
When you're taking new photographs will you talk about it, and crop me out
It seems to me that letting go
Proves simply when brooding over
The ground, the ground, the ground, was right above your feet
The street, the street, was somewhere underneath
Your teeth, they bite, the ones that I could see
And you, you spoiled me for being alone
I will be the ground on which you build your last step

1 in 3 and somehow I feel like my odds are slim
Preparing to bury my head
No matter how much sand there might under you and him
Now I’m feeling like the walking dead
I don’t need an answer
We’ll both be up late tonight
You, your pride is cancer
So make sure your parents are right
Adeeba deeba so good to meet ya
Tell me a little about yourself
Where you go and where do you come from
And how does it feel to be on your shelf
Your face is glass and so is your staircase
You might wanna get to climbing now
Tell me tell me say where your love is
I need to know that you are okay
Salieri Mozart look like romance next to you
I can taste your smile through your zeal
And your palette’s dry I know but find a shade of blue
To paint a picture showing your appeal
I don’t need an answer
We’ll both be up late tonight
You, your pride is cancer
So make sure your parents are right
Adeeba deeba so good to meet ya
Tell me a little about yourself
Where you go and where do you come from
And how does it feel to be on your shelf
Your face is glass and so is your staircase
You might wanna get to climbing now
Tell me tell me say where your love is
I need to know that you are okay
Let me wake up my own
I’ll let you know when I’m full grown
I’ll take the last one with my hands
Just promise me to change your plans
Adeeba deeba so good to meet ya
Tell me a little about yourself
Where you go and where did come from
And how does it feel to be on your shelf
Your face is glass and so is your staircase
You might wanna get to climbing now
Tell me tell me say where your love is
I need to know that you are okay
