Paperback lover
I was sexting the moon
It’s hard going to town
Going down for hours
down on you
you’re always wet because I’m crying
you got levels of power
you can’t buy no goddamn flour
Wearing sexy masks
on your sexy ass
Don’t know where this is going
if ever it’s going
Generous offer
I was leaving too soon
It’s hard enough to go to town
Going down for hours
dialing through the hues
can I stay here til the day I die
you got levels of power
you can’t buy no goddamn flour
Wearing sexy masks
on your sexy ass
Don’t know where this is going
if ever it’s going

The Catch

I‘m a catch
You want that juicy juicy flesh
I’m a catch
Oh yeah you wanna be my match
I ain’t hard to find
Cause I’m a big guy
Smart like rings of jupiter
It’s a constant flex
More flexible than you might think
a bodily hex
oh here I go gait like a grizzly
babe you can’t miss me
I might look grumpy
but you don’t wanna dump me
Im a catch
you want that itch that you can scratch
Im a catch
oh yeah you wanna be my match
I am working out
more on the inside
baggage like a carousel
moodswings like a bull
might throw you off at any point
but you know you wanna grab a hold
tight grip
sonic whip
the collar for your pip
oh what a trip
I‘m a catch
You want that juicy juicy flesh
I’m a catch
Oh yeah you wanna be my match
Im a catch
you want that itch that you can scratch
Im a catch
oh yeah you wanna be my match

Oh my god
that drummer is a cummer
they can get it
they can get it
they can get it
they can fuck
oh dark lord
it’s a cold hard number
you can teach us
you can teach us
you can teach us
you can make us understand
A Touch of Class
Fuck the Stalinlovers
make room for new narratives
it’s high time
we began to live
in the place we actually do
look who’s here, who’s around you
fuck the cops
and their apologists
they’re not here to protect us
they’re here to protect their shit
if not for their property where to place their ass
the foul stink of the green and a touch of class

you can hold yourself down and
you can turn your head around and
you can be a lover
but you’ll never gonna/get to see
if everybody else was just who went away from me
I can be a woman and got nothing else to say/see
we can turn that body round and never be the same
were you ever gonna learn to love yourself x2
you can be a lover but you’re never gonna see
relationships get tired and you never gotta meet
everybody else is just running round the club
though not as much as real as you
is that you think it took/ and everything you took
you got to learn to love yourself
you got to learn to come down from the shelf
you can be a lover and you
and you’re gonna get to see
its all that I can tell you that you’ll never learn from me
I can be a badass but you’re never gonna stay
it’s never gonna go never gonna grow on me

Can’t I go five minutes without self-deprecating
no no no
Gotta be quiet when the real people are still sleeping
no no no
That ice don’t break but it might melt
says the old horse in the back of my head
oh oh oh
but not when you’re sitting at home
listening to the repeats degrading and getting louder
can’t I go five minutes without beginning to spiral
no no no
I made a scorecard I won’t set it on fire
no no no
That spell don’t break but it might lift
when I finally understand that I’m not shit
oh oh oh oh
even if I’m sitting at home
listening to the repeats degrading and getting louder
solo
Oh I hope the horse
is finally set free
Oh I hope the horse
don’t trample over me
you’ll get chances and glances of dances and romances
my lover is a trans sis, it’s important she be heard

Hypergraphia
02:59

I was the reverse phoenix
obelisk to boulder
emo to rock
It was a lot of training
writing it off
(to) soothe me
I am my own constant gardener
slowly moving pebbles
slowly moving rocks
it’s perpetual upkeeping
writing it off
(to) soothe me
I like it
I want it
I get it
I got it

Heartworming

there’s a dude riding bike like an angry goose
nothing but time to lose
there’s cops pulling poors from buildings like the bell riots
nothing but power and money
there’s only songs that fuck you down down
Nothing but wailing sounds
there’s only songs that fuck me down down
Nothing but wailing sounds
when I’m not busy living with depression
I’m trying not to let the patriarchy get me down down down
When I’m not busy helplessly falling
I’m trying not to just close my eyes and lie down down down
Well I’m not gonna pull these punches and not throw some too
like there’s no nazi violence is a goddamn fucking joke
like letting the weak perish is not a fascist take
like a violent expression doesn’t take/need at least three sides
the perp the victim and the enabler
x2
when I’m not busy living with depression
I’m trying not to let the patriarchy get me down down down
When I’m not busy helplessly falling
I’m trying not to just close my eyes and lie down down down
Well I’m not gonna pull these punches and not throw some too

Mint in the Manger

I mean gee man I don't know
Maybe I need it maybe I don't
Don't need to prepare a thing
As I'm gonna phone it in
Squander illicit child
I know you wanted love tonight
But I have more pressing desires
I leave you with a longing
Mint in the manger
I mean gee man I don't know
Maybe I need it maybe I don't
Don't need to know a thing
As I'm gonna phone it in
Squalor second child
I know you wanted more tonight
But I have a want I need to abide
I leave you with a longing
Mint in the manger
You gonna get a dirty mind
I mean gee man I don't know
Maybe I need it maybe I don't
Don't need to need a thing
As I'm gonna phone it in
Out of the ocean
And into the car
Such Sensual motions
In my arms
Off of the off-chance
Up to the stars
Such wiley coyotes
In your heart of hearts

Check 1,2
02:25

everyday I check myself
before I wreck myself
it’s obligatory
if we wanna have society
check yourself
(if you want it or not doesn’t really matter)
check yourself
cause baby in the end you really wanna live together
check yourself
I wanna live it up with you

Let me get my boxing gloves
I wanna give you compliments
and I’m willing to fight you for it
it’s not self-agrandizing
to realize you’re good at things
even when it’s picking out socks
please let me share some of the things I’ve learned
There is no shaming except shame shaming
you don’t comment on changing bodies
reflect before you act and say
everything that you mean
sometimes you just gotta censor yourself
relationship and circumstance
matter more than norms and canons
I try to learn to read the room
find a language with yourself
self-deprication doesn’t help
you wanna stop the spiral in the eye of the storm
please let me share some of the things I’ve learned
There is no shaming except shame shaming
you don’t comment on changing bodies
reflect before you act and say
everything that you mean
sometimes you just gotta censor yourself
maybe it’s a civilizing feat
self-expression is important
but it’s not always what we need
There is no shaming except shame shaming
you don’t comment on changing bodies
reflect before you act and say
everything that you mean
There is no shaming except shame shaming
you don’t comment on changing bodies
reflect before you act and say
everything that you mean

The Life Aware
03:15

There is no taking back
there is no taking back the words we’ve said
there is no taking back the thoughts we’ve had
time don’t work like that
let us be informed by what we’ve done
how that made us feel
how that made others feel
and adapt our future behavior
there is no that’s just who I am
at least partially
let us go through life aware
there are things that happen
but there’s also responsibility
own up to the life aware
(lets) own up to the life aware

Oh no
I got all up in your everything
I didn’t mean to, I just wanted to sing
