Granddad's Opening Address
Tommy, grandaddy called to make a suggestion
Why don't you call your next album Geggy Tah II
And use the same cover and dog and everything
Everybody's used to that
Just a suggestion

Whoever You Are
You let me change
You let me change
You let me change
You let me change

All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don't know who you are
You let me change lanes
While I was driving in my car
All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don't know who you are
You let me change lanes
While I was driving in my car
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you, whoever you are

All I wanna do is to exit
So I go to where I can get off
On a curve, through the shoulder
There's no parking in that trough
So I drive around all day
Coming atmospheric haze
Till I wanna get on again
Then, all I have to say is

All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don't know who you are
You let me change lanes
While I was driving in my car
All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don't know who you are
You let me change lanes
Driving in my car
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you, whoever you are

Now, all I wanna do is to tune in
Radio L.A. Lujah
Cos we're broadcasting live
And we wanna hear all of ya
On the mic is Geggy Tah
But a whole lot more of all of ya
Let us hear ya, let us hear ya
In a big echoing holla

All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don't know who you are
You let me change lanes
While I was driving in my car
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you, whoever you are

All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don't know who you are
You let me change lanes
While I was driving in my car
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you
Whoever you are - I wanna thank you, whoever you are

Lotta Stuff
Think firm
There's a lotta stuff in my gut that I can't seem to get rid of
I wish the whole universe could absorb cos it's so much bigger
Unless I take the time
All this stuff will be mine for the rest of my stuffed life
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine

There's a lotta stuff in my room that I can't seem to put away
I wish the flowers of woe, stop, it' s not cool to look pretty
Unless I take the time
All this stuff will be mine for the rest of my stuffed life
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine

All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine

All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine

There's a lotta stuff in my gut that I can't seem to get rid of
I wish the whole universe could absorb cos it's so much bigger
Unless I take the time
All this stuff will be mine for the rest of my stuffed life
Taxi, taxidermy
Taxi, taxidermy me
Taxi, taxidermy me, yeah
Taxi, taxidermy me

Century Plant 2000
Here comes 2000 and I hear there'll be a party
In every house there'll be dancing
And every door will be open
Cos here comes 2000 and I hear there'll be a barbeque
On the patio of your neighbor's
Stereo will play your favorite song

The century plant grows to the top
The century plant blooms when it stops
Cos the century plant knows
The century plant grows to the top
The century plant blooms when it stops
Cos the century plant knows

Changes all are timing by sincere sap on the inside
I am not afraid to be blooming
On a different day I'm renewing
Extract the soap from the century plants can offer us almost
Everything like cigarette papers
And Bible pages and strops for razors

The century plant grows to the top
The century plant blooms when it stops
Cos the century plant knows
The century plant grows to the top
The century plant blooms when it stops
Cos the century plant knows

The century plant grows to the top
The century plant blooms when it stops
Cos the century plant knows
The century plant grows to the top
The century plant blooms when it stops
Cos the century plant knows

Here comes 2000 and the times they are a-changing
And if I'm still alive at 2000 and 25 I'll be singing

Sacred Cow
What's wrong you're always crying lately
What song, this isn�t a song really
Shut up and stop your playing around
The subject right now is what's wrong

What's wrong you're always crying lately
What song, this isn�t a song really
Shut up and stop your playing around
The subject right now is what's wrong

What's wrong with this immaculate
What song is this immaculate song of love
What's wrong with this immaculate
What song is this sacred cow of love

Love makes me want to melt down
It can be really dangerous
If I make love to you now
I'll have a gigantic sacred cow

What's wrong with this immaculate
What song is this immaculate song of love
What's wrong with this immaculate
What song is this sacred cow of love

What song reminds you of when
Life was home on the dangerous
Which sides of the tracks are you on
Both sides because the world is round

Sacred cows are headed for the slaughter
Sacred chickens pecking cement
Making unknown nuggets for the miners
So they can make cement excrement
Building buildings taller than the mountains
Digging tunnels deeper than the sea
How I'd like to fly in an airplane
So I can pump entertainment in me

What's wrong with this immaculate
What song is this immaculate song of love
What's wrong with this immaculate
What song is this sacred cow of love
What's wrong with this immaculate
What song is this immaculate song of love
What's wrong with this immaculate
What song is this sacred cow of love

What's wrong you're always crying lately
What song, this isn�t a song really, shut up
What's wrong you're always crying lately
What song, this isn�t a song really, shut up
What's wrong you're always crying lately
What song, this isn�t a song really

House Of Usher (Inside)
Inside of me there's a house of usher
Inside of me there's a frosted pane
Behind the glass there's a virgin mother
In a room in the house calling

Please won't you come in
Please won't you come inside
Please won't you come in
Please won�t you come

Inside of me there's a full length mirror
Inside of me there's a full bathtub
Take the time to make the water dirtier
As you soak and scrub

Please won't you come in
Please won't you come inside
Please won't you come in
Please won't you come

Inside of me there's a big bath towel
Inside of me there's a big bath robe
Sorrow sneaks silently in slippers
Left behind when to bed you go

Please won't you come in
Please won't you come inside
Please won't you come in
Please won't you come inside

Lady Magdalene is not dead yet
Mary Magdalene's buried alive

Please won't you come in
Please won't you come inside
Please won't you come in
Please won't you come

Inside of me there's an open window
Inside of me there's an open shade
Shining in, illuminate my slumber
Buried a life that was grey

Please won't you come in
Please won't you come inside
Please won't you come in
Please won't you come inside of me

Don't Close The Door
Don't close the door, don't close the door
Don't close the door, don't close the door
Don't close the door to my heart - to my heart
Don't close the door to my love - to my love

When she left she packed light
No luggage allowed on that red-eye flight
I wonder what she had for her free drink
I hope she got a pillow - don't close the door

I hope that someone meets her at the gate
I hope that they're there on time
And they can skip baggage check, beautiful - don't close the door

Don't close the door, don't close the door
Don't close the door, don't close the door
Don't close the door to my heart - to my heart
Don't close the door to my love - to my love

She went up, she couldn't go west
The ocean held her in like a breast
By a brassiere of broken land
I can still see her - don't close the door

Now I've no need for a peephole
For I can see clearly now
No sacred cow, I miss you
I can't close the door you went through
I can't close the door to my heart
I can't close the door to my love

Such A Beautiful Night
It's such a beautiful night
It's cold as hell, the wind smells like disaster
The moon is full of gravity pulls the plaster off my face
Finally, I go up to a aster
Faster than even the wind I fly

On such a beautiful night
The sky is empty with everything inside it outside
It's such a beautiful night inside
It's such a beautiful night outside
It's such a beautiful night
Inside of the bellies of a heifer

It's such a beautiful night
It's cold as hell, the wind smells like disaster
The moon is full of gravity pulls the plaster off my face
It feels good, the wind on my face
Disaster's a welcome change
Back to Song List


She Withers
Out of the way there is a quiet place
Where there's no skin to scar and there's no time to waste
Full of emptiness I cannot touch the bottom
Lines on her face falling in her autumn
With her while she withers away

In a mangel-wurzel for the cattle
Washing for the battle hymn to hurry up and hold on
Slaughter is to you a manicure, her nails on impaled palms
Springing out of this flesh stirs a life at the bottom
With her while she withers away
With her while she withers away, away
With her while she withers away, away
Away, away, away, away

Las Vegas With The Lights Out
Big dinosaur silhouettes
Big pyramid silhouettes
Big building silhouettes
Big silhouettes of I don't know what that is

What is that - I can't make it out

It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out

Big crowd silhouettes
Moving cautiously, arms outstretched
None of the cars are turning over
There's no juice in the batteries
There's plenty of juice in all the people though
Pushing their automobiles in neutral
They aren't automatic anymore
They aren't automatic anymore

It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out

Big dealers wanna bet
Roulette wheels wanna bet
Slot machines wanna bet
All resting

Before the night when the lights went out
Was an electrical water spout
Absolutely everything about electricity
Has been dead for more than a minute
I don't think this was an accident
The dead presidents are innocent - made of metal

It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out
It's Las Vegas with the lights out

Mem
"Ready or not here I come," is what she said
I was the one for her story instead
So to give me memories so
Satisfy secrets pushing broken doorbells
Ringing implicit leaves fall down,  joyous hell-bender
Going down, slowly rising

Son of a someone two, three for �get along
Heir to the princess sing, sing a happy song
Making baby memories so
Saddle the horses and let�s ride out at dawn
Head toward the sun rising upstream will spawn
Laying down so we can enjoy delicate things
Enjoy delicate things

Ready for anything without a seer
Leaves on the trees are trembling upside down
Silver and clear my memories so
Ever there was a story I ache to hear
Mary Maudlin heard the ghosts under there
So she's going down, slowly rising

Shed
I wanna be honest more than I know how
I wanna be honest more than I know how
So honest I'll surprise myself
Surprise me now, surprise me now
Ooh, I'm scared - I'm afraid, I'm not afraid
I'm a terminal optimistake
Rip off my dog tags
Sleep in the funny farm
Shed my hospital gown
Old MacDonald has a car alarm

Eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi oh - shed
Eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi oh - shed

I wanna dance more than I know how
I wanna dance more than I know how
So simple I�ll surprise my sow
Surprise me now, surprise me now
Ooh, I'm scared - I'm afraid, I'm not afraid
I'm a terminal optimistake
Rip off my dog tags
Sleep in the funny farm
Shed my hospital gown
Old MacDonald has a car alarm

Eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi oh - shed
Eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi oh - shed
Eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi oh - shed
Eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi eyi oh

Gina
Another love song can do me no wrong
Get along, oh, get along

I've never seen anything more beautiful
Than the eyes on the side of Gina's head
I've never seen anything more beautiful
Than the eyes on the side of Gina's head
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina

I've never seen anything more elegant
Than the neck that holds Gina's head up
I've never seen anything more elegant
Than the neck that holds Gina's head up
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina

I've never seen anything more motherly
Than her nipples make me want to drink her up
I've never felt anything more motherly
Than a kiss from Gina when I get up
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina

I've never smelled anything so robust
As when Gina's been playing in that trash
I've never smelled anything so sweet
When she's fresh out of a warm bath
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina
Gina, Gina, Gina, Gina

I've never seen anything more beautiful
Than the eyes on the side of Gina's head
