Awful is all, awful like cookie
Sour and ringing and lost to this world
These are times, I should shut up about Iris and Oly,
He didn't know how else to be
Hmm hmm hoot hoot
Cherry oh Cherry
While your friend killed her baby
Cherry oh Cherry
I am at your command
Hmm hmm hoot hoot

. . .


he talked to me like I was smart he sexed me up
all the time I did not get it, was this my time to shine
I did not get it, had my luck finally turned
LA LA LA LA LA
I saved up to take him out at night
he said the restaurant was all wrong
he said he had a dream about me
and in that dream I was beautiful
I made him a present it was a photograph of me
I did not get it, he said it did not cost me anything

. . .


angel wear your 'pray hard' shirt
angel your daughter
the circle of your line

Oh Angelina in a different life
Oh Angelina in a sickle cell
Oh Angelina in a different time

No one can touch you
No one can touch you

Angel, so faithful
The dead will bury their own dead
Angel
exodus

Remember all the time

Oh Angelina in a different life
Oh Angelina in a sickel cell
Oh Angelina in a different time
No one can touch you
No one can touch you

. . .


It was not posed
It messed me up
It was her recording herself
Whisper.
"What is it worth to me?"
Thinking one thought
The advice to be okay.
Break into childrens hospital
Cry it out.
"Dont fuck with me, dont fuck with me"

And I broke up
without a note
And I broke up
Its a mess
Go go go go go
Away from here.
Food color poured out all over her shorts mixed with
I'll make a gate you cannot pass
Taped to there loinclothes
A sign that says "Why us?"
Flip yourself off but erase it when someone sees you.
"This, this is the worst vacation ever, I am going to cut open your
forehead with a roofing shingle, Ohh Ohh"

And I broke up
without a note
And I broke up
And I broke up
behind your house
And I broke up

. . .

Thanks Japan

You say I am loca because I am your girl
You say I am stupid because I am your girl
You leave me out on the steps you dress me up like a boy
You say that I am your secret love
You say to be quiet but I want to tell the whole world
I like my neighborhood I like my gun
Drive in my little car I am your girl and I will protect you
We do it in the back of my little car
Pull up my pants and fix my bra go on home to your kids
I'm going to be quiet and I'm going to tell the whole block

. . .


Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I'm tired and I
I want to go to bed
Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
And then leave me alone
Don't try to wake me in the morning
'Cause I will be gone
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I will feel so glad to go
Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore
Sing to me
Sing to me
I don’t want to wake up
On my own any more
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go
There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Bye bye

. . .


excuse me
is it true what they say?
about guys who go out by themselves?
is that they go home by themselves
you've seen me dance here alone before
is it tough to watch
friday after friday?

. . .


Awful is all, awful like cookie
Sour and ringing and lost to this world
These are times, I should shut up about Iris and Oly,
He didn't know how else to be
Hmm hmm hoot hoot
Cherry oh Cherry
While your friend killed her baby
Cherry oh Cherry
I am at your command
Hmm hmm hoot hoot

. . .


I did something bad
I got in a fight
about drugs
kicked him in the neck

I am helsabot
I am all you're not
but you wish you were

I am working hard
don't you laugh at me
I am helsabot
alcohol fueled robot

I take off my clothes
then I say to joe
"do your pants ever just fall off?"
a menage-et-trois' fine

I am helsabot
I am all you're not
but you wish you were

I am working hard
don't you laugh at me
I am helsabot
alcohol fueled robot

. . .


la la holds inside of her
the horrible dream of being somebody
thinking about her dream makes her feel
like it's stupid
a dream whose coming true
is a must a must
it would be so much easier
if she was a real girl
the preschool students ask her
what she is
she thinks i don't know
she says what do you think
listen to On Fire and pretend someone could love you
listen to Lady Day and dream they knew the half of it
listen to Birthday and pretend someone could love you
listen to Nick Drake and dream they knew the half of it

. . .


Sorry I walked away when you told me what you were scared of the night that you turned 12
Trying not to cry in front of your older brother
He knows where I live, he's not interested
I can't have nice things, like a boy who stays who stays around
When I needed him the most on your walk
Hold your head up high and when you watch me fall
Please look back for the last time
Brooklyn dodger

. . .


I can't wait to watch you get older
I can't wait to meet that first boy that breaks your life
I can't wait till you realize the family you've been born into
I can't wait to watch you turn from good to bad
I can't wait to tell your grandpa made your mommy
play stripper while your uncle watched
I can't wait to tell you I punched your mommy in the chest
In front of her new friends
I can't wait till you realize mommy's heart is broken
I can't wait to watch you grow up around the people who broke it

. . .


I tried hard to be good to you
i felt peace inside my head
its impossible to just be cool
please please please
don't don't don't
walk like my single hope
we closed our lips and we called it our love
we swallowed a clover made of lead
its unmanageable to just keep on living
please please please
don't don't don't
walk like my single hope
i can only say it
so many times

. . .
