1. GROW UP AND BLOW AWAY

Grow Up and Blow Away

Floating the rent
Two by two
From the womb
To the holiday
There is no holiday
First double-cross her heart
He wants to start a family
Needing something to go on

If she weren't writing in blood
She'd bring him her jokes
A new liver
And a shovel for the mud
If he were not knee-deep in mud
He'd bring her his drugs
He'd get her a typewriter

If this is the life
Why does it feel so good to die today?
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away

If this is the life
Why does it feel so good to die today?
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away

Nobody knows which street to take
He took the easy way
What was the easy way?
First double-cross her heart
He wants to start a family
She always thought she would not

If she weren't writing in blood
She'd bring him her jokes
A new liver
And a shovel for the mud
If he were not knee-deep in mud
He'd bring her his drugs
He'd get her a typewriter

If this is the life
Why does it feel so good to die today?
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away

If this is the life
Why does it feel so good to die today?
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away

First double-cross her heart
He wants to start a family
Her body is the baby

If this is the life
Why does it feel so good to die today?
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away

If this is the life
Why does it feel so good to die today?
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away

Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away
Blue to gray
Grow up and blow away


2. SIAMESE CITIES

I said, I'm sorry to change my mind
It was a little bit cold that night
I was dreading the ride back to little Italy
And needing to hide out from my mind

When you walk, you move like Moses
When you look, you look like Red Roses
Every day breaks bitter river, was a flood
Why do you leave me in between siamese cities?

I saw the sky in you, what did you see in me?
This rubbermaid's had better days
Shake it out, static anonymity
Vanity, dull roar die down

When you dig, you turn me over
From the street, rock radio plays crimson and clover
Over and over
Every day breaks, bitter river was a flood
Why do you leave me in between siamese cities?

When you walk, you move like Moses
When you look, you look like red roses
Every day breaks, bitter river was a flood
Why do you leave me?
Why you leave me?
Why you leave me inbetween siamese cities?

She is shaken out static anonymity
She is shaken temporarily
She is shaken out, static anonymity


3. DOWN

I wondered if you could come and help me,
I want to get from here,
To there.

I saw your face look
Down to mine
I only hope that you're alright
I know you think it's always you
Needs some time alone

To feel I wondered if you could come and help me down
I want to get from here
To there.

After tonight another day
A chance to feel a different way
The sun is slowly changing size still
Sorrow in your eyes

So feel I wondered if you could come and help me down
I want to get from here
To there

Heavy hearts swing low
Feel down let go

So feel Feel down let go down
I want to get from here
To there

I wondered if you could come and help me


4.SOFT ROCK STAR (JIMMY VS JOE REMIX)

Climb the wall to make the sun rise in time
But the night had already begun
Climb the wall to make the sun rise in time
But the night had already begun

Now here I am, I am the one
So hang high soft star
Don't shine, before swine

Not a lot of room to move, but where's my guide
I tried looking up to you girls
Please correct me, but didn't you let the work slide
Capitalize on a novelty, cheap pink, spotlight

Choose the highest bidder was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, Junior high style
Bullies have always tried to buy the better girls
But failed now

Bubblegum bought Martini
Is nothing like dépanneur red wine
Travel through time
Who were you after you were mine

Choose the highest bidder was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high style
Bullies have always tried to buy the better girls

Choose the brightest future
mind the death
and try to buy the better girls
but failed 'till now
cheque is in the mail

So hang high
Soft rock star
Hang high
Soft rock star
Don't shine before swine

Choose the highest bidder was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high style
Bullies have always tried to buy the better girls, haven’t they?

Choose the highest bidder was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high style
Bullies have always tried to buy the better girls
But failed until now, cheque is in the mail


5. LONDON HALFLIFE

Middle-aged, do the low rise on the waist
London half-life
Middle-aged, you're the low riser
getting over myself today

And if you're compromised, Drive your car through the rain
And if you've been beaten, Drive your car through the rain
'till you wash off the buzz
Don't pull over 'till you're sure, one that wanted the floor,
one that won't know the street, one that wanted to land,
on the heart with his feet up
oh watch out, you're only better off at half your life
otherwise wasted
House of cards, you fall hard
