evermore

Some smiles are frowns upside down
As we hang like our clothes in the garden
Looks like a street lamp
Real thin towering over me
Like a tall man of tin
Evermore
It moves through me, rubs through me
Evermore
It cuts through me, cuts through me
Now that you’re flat as dough
Pressed between the rolling pins
You never turned to let them know
How much you were wearing thin
It’s inapparent the swell in deep
Your appetite turns to fast
But there are crystals growing inside of you
There are crystals growing inside of you
Go outside, go outside
There are crystals growing inside of you
There are crystals growing inside of you
There are crystals growing inside of you
There are crystals growing inside of you
And I’ll be here forever in evermore
A spirit tied to the wind and watching like a sniper
Where do we go when we’re dead
Do our souls dance late in the evening when the moonlight glows
Or do we squeal like our teddy bear ham
I didn’t choose to be here
So whip me into the cracks in baked mud
Poke me with spears
Tame me like a dancing bear
Kill me like Elvis

apples

Oh man, I’m going insane
They shouldn’t of took the apples down from the trees
There’s swarms of locust like cloaks of rain
They shouldn’t of took the apples down from the trees
I wanna go outside and play
They shouldn’t of took the apples down from the trees
No, no, Johnny not today
Round juicy spear
Gift for his dear
Grew out of a pip, then picked out of a tree
Round juicy
Skinned with a spear
Apple lattice, straight jacket, kept the doctor away
Round juicy spear
So red in here
Pressed to a clinic with a cyanide picnic
Round juicy spear
So red in here
All work, no rest, make Johnny see red mist
Buried in nylon, duvet is my hole
Sucked by flies through their curly straw
If you asked to explain, I can try and draw
Pull up your mask, your face, I must see this detail if this place is to be truthful
Oh Johnny, what are you mate?
Could you add some colour? Or a lighter shade?
Vantablack this canvas is sprawled
Scribbled out, black charcoal, I draw
Round juicy spear
Gift for his dear
Grew out of a pip, then picked out of a tree
Round juicy
Skinned with a spear
Apple lattice, straight jacket, kept the doctor away
Round juicy spear
So red in here
Pressed to a clinic with a cyanide picnic
Round juicy spear
So red in here
All work, no rest, make Johnny see red mist

Some kind of rush, soft creamy slush
This sugar is not enough
What I want is proper lush
So dance with your cone, dance til you’re dead
“Enjoy it while it lasts” the ice cream witch said
Dance til your bones spin on your head
Lick it all up until you’re dead
Swish, swish of her swishy wand
Swish, swish of her swishy wand
She’s casting her sugary spells again
And I’m dripping with a hellish whipped dream
Swish, swish of her swishy wand
From her grisly van she waved
Which flavour shall this cone be paved?
Mint choc chip
What I want is proper lush
So dance with your cone, dance til you’re dead
“Enjoy it while it lasts” the ice cream witch said
Dance til your bones spin on your head
Lick it all up until you’re dead
Swish, swish of her swishy wand
Swish, swish of her swishy wand
She’s casting her sugary spells again
And I’m dripping with a hellish whipped dream
Swish, swish of her swishy wand

It’s big and orange and lives up in the sky
It’s beautiful and do you know why
It’s sends out lots of ultraviolet rays
Burn
Eyes burn like coal as my face becomes a prune
A skeletal camel ditched upon a dune
I dance around the sun and prance around the pool
A dried out basin full of dead tadpoles
Gonna burn yourself
Better slap some thick white cream on
Sunscreen shielding from a radiant beam
So it melts it as it stares down from the sky
The mayans cry “why god why”
If she strops expect no crops
Stick it out sungazer to hot for blazers
I’m burning from the sun
I’m burning from the sun
I’m burning from the sun
My eyes are coal they burn through my skull this suns gonna cook us all
I’m burning from the sun
Don’t wanna be sun dosed.
So for now we dance naked on the longest days like embers flickering off an anvil forged fire
Beneath the scorching calypso red hot heat this planet will tire
Beneath a rainbow cross on a Cornish cliff we saw you sink into the sea.

My friend can’t you see it’s got too close
Drinking petrol from a hose
There might not be a glowing spirit to revive you from your overdose
And I know I can’t talk
When it’s the third day in and I’m covered in thick black chalk
We’ll climb the highest stalk
And parachute down like little green soldiers
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Beaming up into the other side
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Took a bow as falling, shuttering pretty lights
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Can someone, please close the curtains
Because this daylight is making me feel guilty
A man with no face taps me with his sharp and scary blade
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Beaming up into the other side
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Took a bow as falling, shuttering pretty lights
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Pain in the side, pain in the side
There’s a man in a cloak
There’s a man in a cloak
And he’s standing behind you
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Beaming up into the other side
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Took a bow as falling, shuttering pretty lights
Pain in the side, pain in the side
Pain in the side, pain in the side

tortoise

Time goes slow
Just feel like I’m riding the back of a tortoise
Everything’s reversing and I’m going back
I feel it move through my body and legs
I think I’ve got a screw loose
I think I’ve got a screw loose
I think I’ve got a screw loose
I think I’ve got a screw loose
And I feel like I’m floating around in space
Tied to a spaceship with my shoelace
The knots so tight it’ll stop me floating away
Time goes slow
And I’ve found a way to leave the planet for a day
Shooting past the stars and sun
And who said you can’t have fun with cardboard tin foil octagon
Reaching out into the void
And I feel like I’m floating around in space
Tied to a spaceship with my shoelace
The knots so tight it’ll stop me floating away
Unscrew my jolted mind
Come calm me with your chimes
Hold me frozen in time
Before I see the great shrine shine

I stood on one leg like flamingos do
It ached so hard, had to stand on two
There’s not a lot I wouldn’t do for you
Spray me with pollen, and watch me ‘achoo’
Come with me birdy but only if you wanted to
I could make you glow but only if you wanted to
So shoot me full of holes like your holding a gun
Blast your rounds through my heart til I’m done
You rip through my chest like a surgeon with a rusted saw
As you cut through my rib cage, pulled out my heart whole
Though we tried our best at least I brought my bullet proof vest
You shoot your revolver rounds through me with no regret
Dress me up like Eastwood, blast me into the sunset
But only if you wanted to
But only if you wanted to
So shoot me full of holes like you’re holding a Tommy gun
At least the gun shots made me run
You spit like an ancient serpent with a venomous charm
If only I had a chorus of flutes to end your fun
I see you now, I see you now
I see you in the long grass
See you now
So for now drown in stagnant rum
Delicate, we crushed like a bug in a hand, that fell into the wrong palm
Clawing at the claustrophobic
Fight fucking strobic, agoraphobic love

How gory? Stick that fucking sword through me
Matadors pin me to doors, chew me up
Pixie whores cut me into little squares
God is watching, say your prayers
Gore me like a bull, stick that fucking knife through my skull
I like it when you play with knives
Lick the tip, cut me in half like a grapefruit
You know there’s flesh inside
Unzip the hide, put your coat on and ride
You’re running with a blade too
I just wanna taste you
You’re running with a blade too
I don’t wanna hate you
Knives
The director said cut, Tarantino bloodlust
Red carpet, my guts
Sell my heart online, on ice, slush puppy that bites
Put me down, shooting stars
In the abattoir, slice
I like it when you play with knives
Lick the tip, cut me in half like a grapefruit
You know there’s flesh inside
Unzip the hide, put your coat on and ride
You’re running with a blade too
I just wanna taste you
You’re running with a blade too
I don’t wanna hate you
Knives
Fell out of love, straight onto your blade
Wipe the smile, straight from my blood
Citrus straight on my heart
Gushing out bitterness
Dissect me like you do amphibians
You’ve done this before, you know the sensitive nerves to cut
Like strawberry laces, my heart it races
And you smile as I fade away
You smile as I fade away

Little fishy flapping on a sand bank
Missing the days of his silver sheen
Not keen to flop and flip
At the hands of a giant pink godly creation
This fella earned his tiger stripes
Through years of constant evolving
Finely tuned the artist paints
As our giant peach is constantly revolving
Dying out
It’s turning, it’s churning
It’s turning, grey
(Without a sea there’s not a tree, or you, or me)
Underground vacation
(Without a sea there’s not a tree, or you, or me)
With my blind alsatian
(Without a sea there’s not a tree, or you, or me)
Pale tinned food hunter
(Without a sea there’s not a tree, or you, or me)
Frail in my bunker
(Without a sea there’s not a tree, or you, or me)
We are all god’s children
(Without a sea there’s not a tree, or you, or me)
Left in a hot car melting
When you squeeze a cloud and there’s no rain
(Without a sea there’s not a tree, or you, or me)
Dying out
When the gods push out their final blow
It’ll be you who’s swallowing all the snow
Without a sea there’s not a tree, or you, or me
It’s turning, it’s churning
It’s turning, grey
I am the last mackerel

I’ve got something that’ll stop you weeping
Tossing and turning, counting sheeping
When life gets rough just stroke some fluff
And if it don’t work just say you’ve had enough
And I’ll take you to Lyme Regis
To look at the curly wurly bones inside the stones
And stare out as the ocean drones
If I broke a magic 8 ball and I swallowed it all
Would you pump out the truth or the juice?
If I broke a magic 8 ball
Would you throw it into all the things that I own?
Why do I keep looping past memories?
Holding on dearly, times rushing past
So I’ll take my pictures and hang them in a red room
Stare at them with gloom
Stare real close, magnifying glasses
Some memories are triggered by perfume
Notes of lavender, my heart it blooms
And it stings, it stings, it stings, it stings
With my teeth I ripped apart your beautiful wings
Blow your kisses
Blow your kisses with the shotgun kisses
Blow your kisses with the shotgun
Blow your kisses with the shotgun
If I broke a magic 8 ball and I swallowed it all
Would you pump out the truth or the juice?
If I broke a magic 8 ball
Would you throw it into all the things that I own?

Yes he’s evil and yes he’s cruel
He’s been pinching ever since he was in school
He’s a sado wako mako shark
Ripping through limbs with his dagger edged darts
And I know this is gonna get dark
Hang his neck from trees we’ll bring him to his knees and feed him to the bees
And I know this is gonna get dark
Last man called John
Eater of hearts
Pendre le batard
Perhaps he isn’t evil after all
Painted as a villain that society mauls
John was a father, an uncle, a grandad, a son
They dragged him through the streets until his body was done
John, oh John, John, John
Pendre le batard

My teeth grinding away, cracked pepper
So seasons pump rhythms through my mind, body and blood
What’s happening now? I’m down in the lion's den scrambling
So pull my mane my lady lioness and claw my face inverted
It’s just a big black hole with atomic curls
Looks like a lamp shade umbrella, Little Bo Peep
And they’ll be winking and whirling
While she gobbles her sheep
And who thought that cane could cause so much pain
What a necrotic place to be
As we strip each other down
Like old wallpaper
The venom is racing, monsters in my skull
Like reptile nascar, sponsored by blood
Aniseed gasoline, bring me the guillotine
A not very nice scream, is whipping inside of me
Numb this face, and botox my frown
Stop the human race, I'm a loser now
Where is the line? Where do I sign?
It's on a mirror, I polished inside
Where is snow white? Give her a call
I’m truly the fairest of them all
Bonnie
Bonnie
The venom is racing, monsters in my skull
Like reptile nascar, draining my blood
Bring me the guillotine, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice
It’s not very nice when life rolls you the dice
Cover it in chocolate, strawberries and cream
Live laugh love, live your dream
Hold onto those you love deeply
I can’t cause I’m drowning in cream
My mouth is like carpets, my pallet is breen
If this is our world take me off the screen
Spray me with tarmac til i’m dripping with tar
Forever a road for James Dean's car
The serpents, they drip from the skies
Can you hear the rain hissing? You can’t go outside
And they’ll type and they type as they steal from the ripe
Can you hear the rain hissing? Don’t go outside
