The World Was Made For Men
Music Video
LyricsWhen the world gets dizzy from spinning around,
Gravity gets tired of holding everything down
When the foul prick of time’s unraveling like twine,
When all roads lead to Rome and there’re no words left to rhymeWe’ll make kites from our bones and make shoes from our skin,
And we’ll try to pretend that this world was made for men.Every tree’s pressed into money and everything tastes the same
When everyone agrees and everything has a name
When the Fish have turned to frogs and the ocean is our cloud
I remember how you looked walking barefoot through the crowd.We’ll make kites from our bones and make shoes from our skin,
And we’ll try to pretend that this world was made for men.Now nothing’s left between us besides blood and air,
And every last circle has been turned into a square
There are no cigarettes in the pockets of your vest
No more hellos or goodbyes, no more secrets to confess.We’ll make kites from our bones and make shoes from our skin
And we’ll try to pretend that this world was made for menRainbows In Gasoline
Play
Lyrics
Rainbows in Gasoline golden and green
Chemical sun setting
Like a hundred million chameleon clouds
We are the dinosaurs nowWearing freudian slips like evening gowns
Taking guilt trips from town to town
Dressed for excess wearing cheaper suits
Walking around in another mans shoesWhy do we give memories eyes and teeth
Like taxidermy dreams
Bury them in gardens under the weeds
Let the willows weepWearing freudian slips like evening gowns
Taking guilt trips from town to town
Dressed for excess wearing cheaper suits
Walking around in another mans shoesWhat will you do when the moon comes tumbling down
Wearing freudian slips like evening gowns
Taking guilt trips from town to town
Dressed for excess wearing cheaper suits
Walking around in another mans shoes
Lavender Road
Video
LyricsWhere does the time go down Lavendar Road
Turn left at the post where memories grow
Like weeds in summer snow and firefly galaxies glowHere we go, pulling up the curtains on the magic show
Heroes and ghosts sit in the front row
Curios, ballerina bones and type of vertigo
Opera glasses like telescopesWhere does young love go down Lavendar Road
Pebbles and planets know how there is no hope
When that red wind blows and all our words go up in smokeHere we go, pulling up the curtains on the magic show
Heroes and ghosts sit in the front rowCurios, ballerina bones and type of vertigo
Opera glasses like telescopesAnd silence echoes down Lavendar Road
Where whine and teardrops flow and rows of graveyards grow
Like white rabbit holes and where they stop nobody knowsHere we go pulling up the curtains on the magic show
Heroes and ghosts sit in the front row
Curios, ballerina bones and type of vertigo
Opera glasses like telescopesDead Meat (Sean Lennon)

LyricsDead meat
Don’t you know you’re dead meat
You just messed with the wrong team
Better not try and fall sleep nowYou’d better run out of here
I’ll close my eyes and count to ten
And then I’ll come find you
YeahYou’re gonna get what you deserve
Gonna get what you deserve
In the end you’re gonna learn
How you get what you deserveToo much
Now you know to much
Only one choice you leave for us
Who do you think they’ll believe us or you
YeahHope you realize this isn’t a game
You know the price so pay up
Or your life could be chaos
Yeah yeah yeahYou’re gonna get what you deserve
Gonna get what you deserve
In the end you’re gonna learn
How you get what you deserveAnd you get what
Get what you deserve
And you get what
Get what you deserve* * *
