Sit back, matter of fact, teasing, toying, turning, chatting, charming, hissing, playing the crowd. Play that song again. Another couple klonopin. A nod, a glance, a half-hearted bow.

Quit acting so friendly. Don′t nod don′t laugh all nicely. Don′t think you′ll up-end me. Don′t sigh, don′t sip your iced-tea. And don′t say, It′s been a while... And don′t flash that stupid smile.
Don′t ask me how I′ve been.
Don′t think I′ve forgotten, you never liked that necklace. So cordial, so rotten... Kiss, kiss, let′s meet for breakfast. Don′t show up so on-time and don′t act like you′re so kind
Don′t ask me how I′ve been.
Don′t sit there and play just so frank, so straight, so candid, so thoughtful, so gracious, so sound, so even-handed. Don′t be so damn benign and don′t waste my fucking time.

Stop getting me off track. I mean it, there′s a problem here. This time it is for, is for, is for, it is for real. How can I make myself more clear?
*I never say quite what I mean. I never mean quite what I say. An′ how did that get outta me? An′ what the hell did I mean to say?*
Mm, this time it is for real. This is a real emergency. This time I swear it is the, is the, is is the truth. Uh, this must be dealt with urgently.
*Well, I never say quite what I mean. I never mean quite what I say. How did that come outta me? What the hell did I mean to say?*
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh... There′s a fire, there′s a fire. (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh....)
I really mean it now. Huh-huoh. This time I swear, I have not lied. This isn′t like the, like the, like the, like like the last time. I swear to God, I have not lied.
*I never say quite what I mean. I never mean quite what I say. How did that come outta me? What the hell did I mean to say?*

So you were born in an electrical storm, took a bite out the sun and saw your future in a machine built for two. Now your rays make me kind of go crazy, shock and awe and amaze me, just a ticker tape parade and me, but something was wrong till you tap danced on the air, in the night. Screaming at the top of your lungs, you said, "Come on, come on. Do what you want. What could go wrong? Oh come on come on come on, come on, do what you want. Oh come on come on. What could go wrong? Do do do do what you want." Come on. Me, I was raised amid the trickle-down days. I woke up numb in the haze and saw my future machine built for two, but the light gave me some kind of fright. How did wrong get so right and lead me stumbling
through the dark of night? Oh something was wrong, but you tap danced on the air, in the night, Screaming at the top of your lungs you said, "Come on, come on. Do what you want. What could go wrong? Oh come on come on come on, come on, do what you want. Oh come on come on. What could go wrong? Do do do do what you want." Come on
Come on in, sweetie-pie! Have an apple, have some lye... Leave your friends, righteous and pathetic, standing at the door. On the books, all your bets favor head-bands and cassettes, cigarettes, suffragettes, and bores.
What to do? Sweetheart, you′ll find mediocre people do exceptional things all the time. Oh, the ruin will do in your talented mind... could′ve been a genius if you′d had an axe to grind.
When we moved to the city, it seemed the competition got so much less pretty but the, the mirror′s never failed you like this before. So your revenge on the world will be pencils through your curls and if wanting ever taught you anything, it′s wanting more. (and more and more and more...)
What to do? Sweetheart, you′ll find mediocre people do exceptional things all the time. Oh, the ruin will do in your talented mind... could′ve been a genius if you′d had an axe to grind. What to doooo...oh? What to dooooooo....oh?
When that day finally nears, you′ll at least have made it clear that compassion′s just a nicer way of looking down your nose. It seems that all the people want to do is crowd the streets of Amsterdam (Pamplona, too), but the bulls have already come and gone and bellowed all their lows. Now nobody knows
What to dooooo...? Sweetheart, you′ll find mediocre people do exceptional things all the time. Oh, the ruin will do in your talented mind... Could′ve been a genius if you′d had an axe to grind. What to dooooo.....oh? What to dooooo.....oh? Oh what to do, what to do, what to do...oh? What to doooooooooooo.....woah!
All of the astronauts Champagne in plastic cups Waiting for the big hero to show Outside the door he stands His head in his hands And his heart in his throat
What can he tell them now Sorry I let you down Sorry it wasn′t quite true But don′t get hung up on it Just solider on with it And good luck with shooting the moon
Shooting the moon Shooting the moon The moon Shooting the moon
All of the principals Generals, admirals And the podium lit with the spotlight The crowd buzzes quietly Waiting expectantly Like it′s opening night
What can he tell them now Sorry I let you down Sorry it wasn′t quite true But don′t get hung up on it Just solider on with it And good luck with shooting the moon
Shooting the moon Shooting the moon The moon Shooting the moon
In your fitted raincoat and tangled winter hair Cheeks a little rosy in the February air Running through the subway to catch the Uptown train Spend the night just dancing Running through the subway to catch the Uptown train Spend the night just dancing
[Chorus:] I want you, yeah I want you I want you, yeah I want you bad So bad I can′t think straight So bad all my bones shake So bad I can′t breathe
And in the midnight quiet, outside the world away We could have just one more night that you could stay. And in the light of morning for 21 days straight There you are beside me And in the light of morning for 21 days straight There you are beside me
[Repeat Chorus:]
So wontcha, So wontcha c′mon (3x) (Very Suggestive "Ahs") I can′t breathe (Band pauses, entire female population of the planet screams) I want you, yeah I want you, so bad I can′t breathe I can′t breathe.

′Cause no one′s gonna find ya When you′re hiding in the dark No one′s gonna find ya When you′re hiding in the dark No one′s gonna find ya When you′re hiding in the dark No one′s gonna find ya
So would you So would you talk to me? It′s time to decide
′Cause no one′s gonna save ya If you don′t swim for the boat No one′s gonna save ya If you won′t take the rope No one′s gonna find ya When you′re hiding in the dark No one′s gonna find ya
And it′s end love the sky is fallin′ End love, the sky is fallin′ The sky is fallin′
So sugar, So sugar dance with me This one last time
We got no reason, We got no reason I can see To hold back tonight

C-C-C-Cinnamon lips and Candy kisses on my tongue, Fun! B-B-B-Buttery eyes, if only cries Could come from those eyes, Ohh
Have you landed yet and, if so, would you let me know? I′m tired of looking up into those starry eyes. Does it rain where you are? Does it snow? And, if so, remind me not to go there. The weather affects my knee.
I′ve never felt this way before.
C-C-C-Cinnamon Lips, go powder your cheeks And meet your new beau, Ohh C-C-C-Counting sheep, if only sheep Could put me to sleep, Ohh
I′ve never felt this way before I′ve never felt this way before
Someday (one day) you′ll miss me. Mundane Sundays when I′m gone. One day (someday) you′ll miss me. One day when I′m gone. (I do and so long) One day when I′m gone!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, Whoa (repeat 3x)
Have you landed yet and, if so, would you let me know?
Another long quiet night... Another long quiet, lonely night spent at your side. Not a lot left to say... There′s not a lot that I still could say to change your mind.
But with a little bit of money we could buy us a car. With a little luck we could get away from where we are. Let′s get out of here.
We′ll drive, one thousand miles an hour. We′ll fly by wheat fields and water towers. We′ll go. We′ll go and we′ll go and we′ll go. Let′s go.
Now the look in your eye... You know, the look right before you cry... it′s always here. So in the day when you wake... In the morning when you awake, let′s disappear.
With a little bit of money we could buy us a car. With a little luck we could get away from where we are. Let′s get out of here.
We′ll drive, one thousand miles an hour. We′ll fly by wheat fields and water towers. We′ll go. We′ll go and we′ll go and we′ll go. Let′s go
If you should be the last Autumn leaf hanging from the tree I′ll still be here waiting on the breeze to bring you down to me And if it takes forever Forever it′ll be And if it takes forever Forever it′ll be And if you should be the last seed in Spring to venture forth a leaf I′ll still be here waiting on the rain to warm your heart for me And if it takes forever Forever it′ll be And if it takes forever Forever it′ll be
When we got to Boston, we knew we′d missed a turn. No one back in traffic school had told us there are signs that can′t be learned. Geography′s too stubborn and people are too clear, so let′s go find a road-side motel with a clerk who won′t tell. Days will turn into nights, nights will turn into days, weeks, seasons, and years. We′ll stay for years.
Red and white for blood cells, red and white for wine. They could be the whole damn spectrum if we′d all just let them. Lord, it′s such a crime... Working on an inch less waistband in the strip mall wasteland outside of this town, or clawing at the penthouse kitchen floor for just one smidgen more, everybody knows, everybody knows that it′s in. The fix is in.
Let′s go back to Boston. Forget about the turn. Atlases and gas station attendants are none of our concern. We′ll forge a little life dear (oh dear) and double down our debts, and I guess it stands to reason that the passing seasons will slowly dull regrets. Working on an inch less waistband in the strip mall wasteland outside of this town, or clawing at the penthouse kitchen floor for just one smidgen more, everybody knows, everybody knows that it′s in. The fix is in.
You′re not the prettiest girl in town, and I′m not the only boy with sullie clothes and a sullen frown, so to hell with Valentine′s, to hell with perfume, to hell with chocolates and picnics and Sinatra tunes.
′Cause while the rest of the girls are drowning in roses and songs he composes, and while the rest of the guys are all trying so hard, oh girl, let′s crash the party. El Dorado on the lawn (hey hey hey!). Let′s burn holes in the carpets, kicking, shouting, dancing, on the tables all night long.
I′m not so good with sublety. You wouldn′t say that I′m the picture of urbanity. Never put much stock in suavity or courtesy or chivalry or gallantry or all that useless jewelry.
But while the rest of the girls still sigh for the night he was smiling politely, and while the rest of the guys are all trying so hard, oh girl, let′s crash the party. El Dorado on the lawn (hey hey hey!). Let′s burn holes in the carpets, kicking, shouting, dancing on the tables all night long. All night long.
You′ll never get that taste, out of your mouth You′ll never get the paw prints, out of the hen house now And you can′t go back, same way you came Round all the pieces up, but they just dont fit the same
White knuckles Maybe it′s not so bad So let your hair down now
White knuckles Yeah maybe it′s not so bad Aww go ahead and let it down
So come and let it all out, let it bleed Did you get what you want? Did you get what you need? Behind the lines, behind the walls Tell me what′s the bet you made, was it that bad after all?
White knuckles Yeah maybe it′s not so bad So let your hair down now
White knuckles Aww maybe it′s not so bad Just let it all come down now
So just have fun, it′s far enough Everybody needs to sleep at night, everybody needs a crutch But couldn′t good, be good enough? Cause nothin′ ever doesn′t change but nothin′ changes much
Yeah, maybe it′s not so bad So let your hair down now White knuckles
Aww maybe it′s not so bad Just let it all come down now
Yeah maybe it′s not so bad Just let your hair come down now
Oh maybe it′s not so bad Just let it all come down
When they finally come to destroy the earth, they′ll have to go through you first. I bet they won′t be expecting that. When they finally come to destroy the earth, they′ll have to deal with you first, and now my money says they won′t know about the thousand Fahrenheit hot metal lights behind your eyes. Invincible. You′re invincible. That crushing, crashing, atom-smashing, white-hot thing... It′s invincible. When they finally come, what′ll you do to them? Gonna decimate them like you did to me? Will you leave them stunned and stuttering? When they finally come, how will you handle them? Will you devastate them deliberately? ′Cause I′m gonna guess they won′t be prepared for thousand Fahrenheit hot metal lights behind your eyes. Invincible. You′re invincible. That crushing, crashing, atom-smashing, white-hot thing... It′s invincible. So, please use your powers for good. You′re invincible
Now its years since your body went flat and even memories of that are all think and dull, all gravel and glass. But who needs them now -- displaced they′re easily more safe -- the worst of it now: I can′t remember your face.
Please... Return.
For a while, with the vertigo cured, we were alive -- we were pure. The void took the shape of all that you were, but years take their toll, and things get bent into shape... Antiseptic and tired, I can′t remember your face.
Please... Return.
You were supposed to grow old. Reckless, unfrightened, and old, you were supposed to grow old.
Having spent your entire life Exactly where you are tonight In the valley between intent and deed
You must have mastered this The fragile art of a good excuse And the little things that get you to believe that get you to believe
So listen I′m not trying to prove anything at all here But don′t you think that maybe this time you were wrong?
You′ve spent your entire life Quick-tongued and always right Hasn′t being right just let you down (right just let you down)
So listen I′m not trying to say anything at all here There isn′t much left anyway that hasn′t been said But don′t you think that possibly this time its different Don′t you think that maybe this time you were wrong?
So listen I′m not trying to say anything at all here There isn′t much left anyway that hasn′t been said But don′t you think that possibly this time its different Don′t you think that maybe this time you were wrong?
So listen I′m not trying to say anything at all here There isn′t much left anyway that hasn′t been said But don′t you think that possibly this time its different Don′t you think that maybe this time you were wrong?
J′s locked out on the fire escape. Sar′s still down on the bench at the Circle K, crying and crying all day. Everybody′s best attempts didn′t do no good. No sign of life. No sign of life. No sign of life. No sign. But I got a hunch: Oh, it′s not over yet. Oh, it′s not over yet.
Kate broke down on Division Street. Air so wet you can hear your heart beat, and beat, and beat, and beat. Oh, I swear I gave it my best shot, what else could I do? No sign of life. No sign of life. No sign of life. No sign. But I got a hunch: Oh, it′s not over yet. Oh, it′s not over yet.
Oooh J′s locked out on the fire escape. (J′s locked out on the fire escape.) Sar′s still down on the bench at the Circle K, crying and crying all day. And everybody′s best attempts couldn′t do no good. No sign of life. No sign of life. No sign of life. No sign. But I got a hunch: Oh, it′s not over yet. Oh, it′s not over yet. Oh, it′s not over yet! oooh! oooh! oooh! Oh, it′s not over yet. (Js locked out on the fire escape) Oh, it′s not over yet. (Js locked out on the fire escape) Oh, it′s not over yet.

Super automatic pilot motor running down circles in the parking lot Self-sustaining system bit her in the neck and quick and kissed her and took all she got Did you come here to dance? Whats in your glass? Do you feel better?
Let it rain, Let it pour Let it rain, Let it pour Hallelujah, Hallelujah Let it rain, Let it pour

It could be ten but then again I can′t remember half an hour since a quarter to four Throw on your clothes the second side of Surfer Rosa and you leave me with my jaw on the floor
Hey!!
Just when you think you′re in control Just when you think you′ve got a hold Just when you get on a roll
Oh here it goes here it goes here it goes again Oh here it goes again I should have known should have known should have known again But here it goes again, oh here it goes again
It starts out easy something simple something sleazy something inching past the edge of the reserve Now through lines of the cheap venetian blinds your car is pulling off of the curb
Hey!!
Just when you think you′re in control Just when you think you′ve got a hold Just when you get on a roll
Oh here it goes here it goes here it goes again Oh here it goes again I should have known should have known should have known again But here it goes again

Lot of knots, lot of snags, lot of holes, lot of cracks lot of crags. Lot of naggin′ old hags, lot of fools, lot of fool scum bags. Oh it′s such a drag, what a chore... oh your wounds are full of salt. Everything′s a stress and what′s more, well it′s all somebody′s fault.
Hey! Get over it!
Makes you sick, makes you ill, makes you cheat, slipping change from the till. Had it up to the gills... makes you cry while the milk still spills. Ain′t it just a bitch? What a pain... Well it′s all a crying shame. What left to do but complain? Better find someone to blame.
Hey! Get over it!
Got a job, got a life, got a four-door and a faithless wife. Got those nice copper pipes, got an ex, got a room for the night. Aren′t you such a catch? What a prize! Got a body like a battle axe... Love that perfect frown, honest eyes... We ought to buy you a Cadillac.
"Bye bye, baby" Cybil says as she walks out the door. You can bet that Hollywood looks oh-so-good, much better than it ever has before. So my pets have left me in search of careers and richer soils, heading off to pure-bred friends and happy ends and anything to prove I′m disloyal.
It′s not just that I′m selfish and scared, it′s not just that I′m so unprepared. It′s just you′d think I′d grow out of this, wouldn′t you?
So take me to winter, as if it was discontent I′d see. I′ll live with the madmen there and pull my hair ′cause lunacy is everything I need.
It′s not just that I′m selfish and scared, it′s not just that I′m so unprepared. It′s just you′d think I′d grow out of this, wouldn′t you?
"Bye bye, baby" Cybil says as she walks out the door. You can bet that Hollywood looks oh-so-good, much better than it ever has before.
Skyscrapers, please forgive me I didn’t mean a word I said Skyscrapers, I was just tangled up in my own head And somehow in all the madness I thought that I was seeing straight It ain’t always pretty, but it seemed there was no other way And I guess, all I ever loved Was standing right before my eyes And I, oh I, I was blind So skyscrapers, please forgive me I’m standing here repentative, man Oh skyscrapers, I’ll never look down again, again Oh ‘cause I guess, all I ever loved Was standing right before my eyes Oh yeah I guess all I’ve ever known Was standing here all the time And I, yeah I, I was blind You were right here all the time You were right here all the time, I was blind

Sitting for lunch in a square in this town (this town that I′m new to), new fellow from my new town sat me down and explained it to me: how when I spin from him I spin from myself, the center can double the speed of the crust. Thank you, my treacherous friends. I′m cringing for myself when I cringe for you.
Hello, my treacherous friends, and thank you for joining me here tonight. I brought you all here to discuss, as I must, how grateful I am for your insights.
With regard to my newborn arachnid kids, there′s something we must discuss: perhaps we should sit them down and explain how not to be saved. Perhaps you could help me to demonstrate how your center can keep up its sickening spin. Thank you, my treacherous friends. Perhaps for my children your surface will smile.
Hello, my treacherous friends, and thank you for joining me here tonight. I brought you all here to discuss, as I must, the fate of my children, the spiders.
Hello, my treacherous friends, and thank you for joining me here tonight. I brought you all here to discuss, as I must, how pleasant has been this demise.
Look at the hottie in the tight jeans, look at the pipe dreams, look at the fat man burst at the seams. Look at the captain with the galaxy right off his balcony. Look at the science and the alchemy. Look at the sirens on the cop cars, look at the pop stars, look at the convicts filing the bars. Look at the wife, look at the knife, look at the pom-pom prom queen scream and scream and run for her life.
It′s always right, the perfect light in the dark of night. Give up the world, give up your life, ′cause you cannot fight the television. Television, television.
Look at them trying to get the flag higher, look at the quagmire, look at the tread separate from the tire. Look at the junky trying to get a gram, look at the betting man, look at him folding on the better hand.
It′s always right, the fearless light in the dark of night. Give up the world, give up your life, ′cause you cannot fight the television. Television, television.
Look at me hypnotized and half alive, maybe it′s four or five, some parts are sleeping, some parts are paralyzed. Just one more minute... just one more minute... I think I′m almost in it.
Television, television. Give me tits and politicians. Give me death and demolition. Give me glamour and sedition. Television.
