Most of the Time

You are a little bit grumpy
And I (I admit) I am annoying
But we don’t see the bad in each other
Most of the time
Most of the time
I wake you up too early in the morning
And you’re no good before you’ve had your coffee
And you wake me up when you come home late at night
But I don’t mind
Most of the time
Most of the time
Is
Mirth and joy and
Most of the time
Is
Good enough for me
Most of the time
Most of the time
I start a million different projects
And you’re always tying up loose ends
I’ll be your beginning
Because you are my end
Most of the time
Most of the time
Is
Mirth and joy
And most of the time
Is
Good enough for me
Most of the time is all anyone could ask for
We don’t have to love each other for forever
And we don’t have to be the only ones
But we will love each other
Just exactly how we are
Most of the time

Like You
I don’t want to be like you
With so many things and nothing to do
I don’t want to be like you
So much achieved but so much to prove
I know you think I am strange
To play the games I choose to play
But to me, you are the strange one
You win every time but lose yourself
I don’t want to be like you
I don't want to be like you
I don’t want to be like you
Everything in reach
No reason to move
I don’t want to be like you
Won so many times that
Now you can't lose
You’ve always thought you were tied
Because you never worked out they lied
The real world is right there beside you
But you’ll never know cause you always hide
I don’t want to be like you
I don't want to be like you

Bellybutton Fluff

I will feed you flowers
Pour fine wine in your ears
Put you in a bath of oils
To marinate for years
And I will make a jumper
From your belly button fluff
And I’ll wear it every day forever
Because you are my luff

I am a person who says things
I want to be someone who learns
And all I have learned by saying things
Is a person who says things can’t learn
When your mouth is open
Your mind is not
You must be silent and still
Lest it rot
Rots from within
Young shoots gone to mould
Once fresh seeds of wisdom
Are now getting old
To harvest your thoughts
You must first plant the seeds
If you want to do talking
You must listen and read

Advertising

You were content
Then they made you feel ashamed
And when you’re ashamed
You’re easy to manipulate
And advertising shits in your brain
Encrypted to be restricted
They know how to code you
They know what to say
Which buttons to press
But there once was a time
Before this horrible mess
There once was a time
You just didn’t know
That you are too stupid
Too poor and too slow
You are too fat
Your eyelashes too short
But if you just buy this product
Now here’s a thought
You could be one well oiled machine
Increasingly efficient and ever so lean…
But now you’re a shit sponge
Your mind isn’t yours
Turn it off
Shut it out
Put your fingers in your ears
Your mind is for you
And should not be rented out

Bee Song
03:27

The old man's honey was gone
And he’d wanted it for a scone
Fingers were pointed and eyebrows were raised
Accusations and insults blazed
“Bzz bzzy bzz”
Said a small voice urgently
And they all turned to see...
A bee
"The honey," said the bee, "belongs to me
And anyone who dares to disagree
Will be stung in the face repeatedly
“Kidding," he continued, raising his (not eyebrows but where his eyebrows would have been if bees had eyebrows, do bees have eyebrows? Its really beside the point...bees can only sting once, we all know that)
So
Said the bee "I made the honey, out of flower and love
Me and the flower were entwined, she fit me like a rubber glove
The honey was our baby, and as far as I'm concerned
This is just as bad as kidnap, and I'd like my child returned"
You can't make accusations of kidnap, without extreme results
And things got rather sticky with all the verbal assaults
However, they came to an equitable agreement because they were all reasonable people (Except for the bee who was in fact a bee but reasonable nonetheless)
They decided to talk to the flower and see what she thought was best.
The flower was a tulip and a beauty it was true
Her voluptuous petals glistened with morning dew
In a husky lustful voice she enquired
"What can I do for you?"
"My love", swooned the bee, ''there's an issue concerning Monday night
These people have our honey; Apparently by legal right”
Said the old man “It is true, I bought the honey from a shop
I purchased it with my money, and I'd like this charade to stop”
Said the flower ‘Now wait a minute
I'm really quite confused
For on the night you speak of,
I was at an art class being a muse”
The bee cried out in angst "But i remember vividly!
Have you had so many bees in you that you don't remember me?
"I'm a flower, what do you expect? the tulip did protest
"it is my nature and my duty to bring bees unto my breast"
And with that the bee took off with a cry
That could be heard through far and wide
But he learned his lesson on that day and never again got so emotionally involved so crippled by fear of dying alone in a bedsit unloved and unwanted in an uncaring and ultimately sadistic universe so desperate to find love at every opportunity
ZZZzzzz
zzzz
ZZZZZZZZZ

Anymore

I don’t think that I can do this anymore
I don’t think I can
It’s too much
And it’s gone on far too long
I don’t think that I can do this anymore
I can’t sleep with these thoughts inside my head
And I’ve been tired for weeks
I close my eyes but time passes slowly by
And I don’t think that I can do this anymore
There’s a thing living in my chest
And I don’t want it there
It’s there to let me know
What I don’t often show
That I don’t think that I can do this anymore
I can’t do this anymore

The Dilemma
02:42

I don’t like you anymore
You are stupid and you snore
I should have told you this before
Think it’s time to close the door
But every single time I try to say
I just cannot seem to get away cos
You are very good at sex
You are very good at sex
I get so excited
Never known anything quite like it
Cos you are very good at sex
You are very good at sex
You are very good at sex
Sometimes I think you’re psychic
Seem to know just how I like it
Yes you are very good at sex
During the day I use my brain
But you like to smoke and take cocaine
I’m confused about the perks
Cos I’m surprised it even works
But even though I find you so mundane
I see you and then off we go again cos
You are very good at sex
You are very good at sex
I think you are amazing
And I can’t stop masturbating
Cos you are very good at sex
You are very good at sex (you make me scream)
You are very good at sex (you make me cream)
Since the last time that we fucked
I have been walking like a duck
Cos you are very good at sex
You are very good at sex
You are very good at sex
It's a shame about the snoring
And the pillow talk's so boring
Cos you are very good at sex

My Room
03:32

Me myself and I
Here in the night
Me myself and time
We don’t need the light
Just the feel of the strings
Feel them resonating
My room is empty
And it has no walls
It has no ceiling
And no floors to speak of
The view is lovely
So I keep the curtains gone
I am skin on stone
I am skin on bone
I’m skint and stoned
But just a stone's throw away
My room is empty
And it has no walls
It has no ceiling
And no floors to speak of
The view is lovely
So I keep the curtains gone
