I used to love her, Oo, yeah  
But I had to kill her  
I used to love her, Oo, yeah  
But I had to kill her  
I knew I’d miss her  
So I had to keep her  
She’s buried right in my backyard  
Oh yeah, Oo yeah, whoa, oh yeah

3:10 pm, Capa pends death, quivers, last rattles, last chokes  
All colors and cares glaze to gray, shriveled and stricken to dots  
Left hand grasps what the body grasps not, le photographe est mort

I got something to say  
I killed your baby today  
And it doesn’t matter much to me as long as it’s dead  
Well I got something to say  
I raped your mother today  
And it doesn’t matter much to me as long as she’s spread

Sweet lovely death  
I am waiting for your breath  
Come sweet death, one last caress

Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,  
Everything that’s wonderful is what I feel when we’re together,  
Brighter than a lucky penny,  
When you’re near the rain cloud disappears, dear,  
And I feel so fine just to know that you are mine.

My life is sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,  
That’s how this refrain goes, so come on, join in everybody!

Superman or Green Lantern ain’t got a-nothin’ on me  
I can make like a turtle and dive for your pearls in the sea, yep  
A-you you you can just sit there while thinking on your velvet throne  
'Bout all the rainbows a-you can a-have for your own  
When you’ve made your mind up, forever to be mine

I’m their product, it’s vital you sell me  
So Machiavell me, make an Argentine Rose  
I need to be thrilling, I want to be Rainbow High  
They need their escape, and so do I

You don’t really love that guy you make it with, now, do you  
I know you don’t love that guy 'cause I can see right through you

I am Superman and I can do anything

I am the eye in the sky  
Looking at you  
I can read your mind  
I am the maker of rules  
Dealing with fools  
I can cheat you blind  
And I don’t need to see any more  
To know that I can read your mind, I can read your mind

The push and the throb  
The threat of the mob  
The crack’s not a secret this time  
The mouths and the doors  
But I can’t shut anymore  
Keep running, cause you’re falling behind

Come gather ‘round, people, wherever you roam  
And admit that the waters around you have grown  
And accept it that soon you’ll be drenched to the bone  
If your time to you is worth savin’  
Then you better start swimmin’ or you’ll sink like a stone  
For the times they are a-changin’

Maybe it’s time to stop swimming  
Maybe it’s time to find out where I’m at  
What I should do and where I should be  
But no-one will give me a map

I’ll leave now this can’t continue  
But I forget which door I came through  
And I know what the lift can be painfully slow  
So I’m happy to leave by the window

Shut the door! They’re coming through the window.  
Shut the window! Now they’re coming through the door.  
Shut the door! And they’re coming through the window,  
Oh, the room is full and won’t hold any more.

6’n the mornin’ police at my door  
Fresh Adidas squerk across the bathroom floor  
Out the back window I make a escape  
Don’t even get a chance to grab my old school tape

Holy Moses I have been deceived  
Now the wind has changed direction and I’ll have to leave  
Won’t you please excuse my frankness but it’s not my cup of tea  
Holy Moses I have been deceived

I’m going back to the border  
Where my affairs, my affairs ain’t abused  
I can’t take any more bad water  
Been poisoned from my head down to my shoes

Old black water, keep on rollin’  
Mississippi moon, won’t you keep on shinin’ on me

Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand

fallen leaves of sycamore  
moonlight in Vermont

Icy fingers waves  
ski trails on a mountain side  
snow light in Vermont

Looking for a penny on an empty beach  
I’ve been looking for a lover who has eyes to see  
While I’m here I wanna walk with you, hold you hand  
In the sun, in the sun, in the sun, in the sun

Turquoise eyes, the color I need to get clean  
The forest burns, and with it something inside me
