SERVE THE SERVANTS
Teenage angst has paid off well
Now I'm bored and old
Self-appointed judges judge
More than they have sold
If she floats than she is not
A witch like we had thought
A down payment on another
One at Salem's lot
Serve the servants, oh no [3X]
The legendary divorce is such a bore
As my bones grew they did hurt
They hurt really bad
I tried hard to have a father
But instead I had a Dad
I just want you to know that I
Don't hate you anymore
There is nothing I could say
That I haven't thought before
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCENTLESS APPRENTICE
Like most babies smell like butter
His smell smelled like no other
He was born scentless and senseless
He was born a scentless apprentice
Go away, get away, get away, get away
Every wet nurse refused to feed him
Electrolytes smell like semen
I promise not to sell your perfumed secrets
There are countless formulas for pressing flowers
I lie in the soil and fertilize mushrooms
Leaking out gas fumes are made into perfume
You can't fire me because I quit
Throw me in the fire and I won't throw a fit
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HEART-SHAPED BOX
She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for a week
I was drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black
Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
[repeat 2X]
Your advice
Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself on angel's hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your highness, I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RAPE ME
Rape me
Rape me, my friend
Rape me
Rape me again
I'm not the only one [4X]
Hate me
Do it and do it again
Waste me
Rape me, my friend
I'm not the only one [4X]
My favorite inside source
I kiss your open sores
Appreciate your concern
You'll always stink and burn
Rape me (rape me) [8X]
Rape me
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FRANCES FARMER WILL HAVE HER REVENG ON SEATTLE
It's so relieving to know that you're leaving
As soon as you get paid
It's so relaxing to hear that you're asking
Wherever you get your way
It's so soothing to know that you'll sue me
This is starting to sound the same
I miss the comfort in being sad
In her false witness, we hope you're still with us,
To see if they float or drown
Our favorite patient, a display of patience,
Disease-covered Puget Sound
She'll come back as fire to burn all the liars
A blanket of ash on the ground
I miss the comfort in being sad
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DUMB
I'm not like them, but I can pretend
The sun is gone, but I have a light
The day is done, but I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb, or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
My heart is broke, but I have some glue
Help me inhale and mend it with you
We'll float around and hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down and have a hangover
Have a hangover
Skin the sun, fall asleep
Wish away, soul is cheap
Lesson learned, wish me luck
Soothe the burn, wake me up
I think I'm dumb
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VERY APE
I am buried up to my neck in
Contradictionary flies
I take pride as the king of illiterature
I'm very ape and very nice
If you ever need anything please don't
Hesitate to ask someone else first
I'm too busy acting like I'm not naive
I've seen it all, I was here first
Out of the ground, into the sky
Out of the sky, into the dirt
[repeat second verse]
Out of the ground, into the sky
Out of the sky, into the ground
Out of the ground, into the sky
Out of the sky, into the dirt
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MILK IT
I am my own parasite
I don't need a host to live
We feed off of each other
We can share our endorphins
Doll steak, test meat
Look on the bright side is suicide
Lost eyesight, I'm on your side
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing
Lack of iron and/or sleeping
I own my own pet virus
I get to pet and name her
Her milk is my shit
My shit is her milk
Test meat, doll steak
[repeat chorus]
Doll steak, test meat
Look on the bright side of suicide
Lost eyesight, I'm on your side
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing
Lack of iron and/or sleeping
Protector of the kennel
Ecto-plasma, ecto-skeletal
Obituary birthday
Your scent is still here in my place of recovery
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PENNYROYAL TEA
I'm on my time with everyone
I have very bad posture
Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
I'm anemic royalty
Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally
I'm so tired I can't sleep
I'm a liar and a thief
Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
I'm anemic royalty
I'm on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry flavored antacids

[spoken]
What's your name? Do you like me?
[end spoken]
Use just once and destroy
Invasion of our piracy
Afterbirth of a nation
Starve without your skeleton key
I love you for what I am not
I do not want what I have got
A blanket acne'd with cigarette burns
Speak at once while taking turns
Second-rate third-degree burns
What is wrong with me
What is what I need
What do I think I think
This had nothing to do with what you think
If you ever think at all
Bi-polar opposites attract
All of a sudden my water broke
Hate, hate your enemies
Save, save your friends
Find, find your place
Speak, speak the truth

[best guesses:]
May day, every day, my day
Could've had a heart attack, my heart
We don't know anything, my heart.
We all want something fair, my heart.
Hey! Hey! Heyyyyyyy! Heyyyyy! Heyyyyy!
Out of town, out of sight, is my heart.
Queen of lies, today, my heart
One more on the phone, my heart
One more at the door of my heart.
Hey! Hey! Heyyyyyyyyyyy!
Me hot, cold heart, cold heart, cold heart
Cold heart, cold heart, cold heart, cold heart

ALL APOLOGIES
What else should I be? All apologies
What else should I say? Everyone is gay
What else should I write? I don't have the right
What else should I be? All apologies
In the sun, in the sun I feel as one
In the sun, in the sun I'm married
Buried
I wish I was like you, easily amused
Find my nest of salt, everything's my fault
I'll take all the blame, aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezerburn, choking on the ashes of her enemy
In the sun, in the sun I feel as one
In the sun, in the sun I'm married
Buried
Married
Buried
All in all is all we are

GALLONS OF RUBBING ALCOHOL FLOW THROUGH THE STRIP
It hurts when you have to press that dull little thing
That you're only supposed to use once and then discard
Where do you put it? In the garbage can, my honest friend
My shyness, pet her flow
She's only been five months late
Even though we haven't had sex for a week
A meal a day, a meal, I say.
And my heart's made my...
Somebody else already used the word aurora borealis
She was tied up in chains, and Sam had helped her in the freezer
She's only five weeks late,
And I haven't had a date forever... ever...ever...forever!
Wish I had more...more opportunity
More chances to remember some things
So I couldn't have so much pressure on my...
On my...on my, um...ah, on my...um...um...head.
[solo]
We'd have so much more diversity
And so much more input, so much more creative flow
If we had someone in school, a git
GIT...geeks...in...town.
Ha!...Come on, Dave, think of one...
It should be GIC, geeks with Charvels
No, GWC
Fuck, man, this is a waste of time!
[laughter]
One more solo? Yeahhhhhhhhh! Yeaaaahhhhh!
[solo]
You're personally responsible for...
The entire strip...to be washed away....
Cleansed...as if gallons of, um, rubbing alcohol
Flowed through the strip and were set on fire
It didn't just singe the hair, it made it straight
And then Perry Ellis came along with his broom
And his...silk...
And he...he erected a beautiful city...
A city of stars
[solo]
