Living Alone

Living alone has a flavor to it that's all of it's own
and I might slip away, just out of sight
Why don't you strip all of the paint off of my house,
rip all my floorboards up, you know they're already falling out
hunt down my party guests, escort them to the door
call up all my friends, tell them I don't want to see them anymore
In my desk drawer there's a young man and he's living mighty poor
He's eating post-its and he's drinking paper weights
and that's all besides a lot that he's got on his plate
Why don't you strip all of the paint off of my house,
rip all my floorboards up, you know they're already falling out
hunt down my party guests, escort them to the door
call up all my friends, tell them I don't want to see them anymore
Living alone has a rhythm to it that's all of its own
and I might slip away into the night
Why don't you strip all of the paint off of my house,
rip all my floorboards up, you know they're already falling out
hunt down my party guests, escort them to the door
call up all my friends, tell them I don't want to see them anymore

Right Across the Sun

The time is coming when you're going to have to sell,
the engine's running but it's not running well,
and darling don't leave me when the river starts to swell
'cause I don't know if you need me, but I need you like hell
Gonna get a big lamp shade, put it right across the sun,
you know when the light shines through it shows you all the things you've done
gonna look in the mirror, gonna try to comb my hair,
check over my shoulder in the hope I see you standing there
Daddy's in the doorway, he says son you better watch your step
Mama's in the hallway, when I could use just a little help
my uncle's in the pantry, and he's eating food right off the shelf,
and all my brothers and sisters, well they're old enough to help themselves,
Gonna get a big lamp shade, put it right across the sun,
you know when the light shines through it shows you all the things you've done
gonna look in the mirror, gonna try to comb my hair,
check over my shoulder in the hope I'll see you standing there
Grandfather's on the mantle in a porcelain tomb,
and what I can't handle are the lonely nights when he's the only one in the room,
all the yellow wallpaper, well it's falling right off the walls,
I said I'd fix it later but it looks like piss and I don't want to touch it at al
Gonna get a big lamp shade, put it right across the sun
you know when the light shines through it shows you all the things you've done
gonna look in the mirror, gonna try to comb my hair,
check over my shoulder in the hope I'll see you standing there

Hum Drum

If you could see me, you might ask me why
sugar runs short and the aspartame runs dry
trees case shadows in the yellow grass that dies
the bluebird folds its wings and the glow slowly flies
I said "hum drum and hum diddle ay, spend your time and go away
hum drum and hum diddle dee, if you love someone must not be me"
Spend all my time looking at an old print
of a painting hanging somewhere I've never been
tells a sad story with every brush stroke
of a young life that sadly got broke
I said "hum drum and hum diddle ay, spend your time and go away
hum drum and hum diddle dee, if you love someone must not be me"
I said "hum drum and hum diddle ay, spend your time and go away
hum drum and hum diddle dee, if you love someone must not be me"
