LYRICS
Antarctica
she palms a star map
tougher than the land
touching where blue meets white
tame the flipper man
ten feet tall by sea
razor tooth nightmare
strayed from its rookery
bloodied empire bare
at the bottom of the world you can’t stop looking down
she team carbon squeeze follows the prints left in the ground
he hides under covers
under the stars
he hides under tables
hides out in the bars
she’ll smoke him out with stories
she’ll smoke him out with a gun
she’ll smoke him out with treasure
she’ll smoke him out with love
at the bottom of the world you can’t stop looking down
she team carbon squeeze follows the prints in frozen ground
Fifty North
under the sidewalk
the water mains burst
gushing emoticons in reverse
and it’s a bullfight- outright
for circuitry new
be it by fair fight or not quite
it’s all I can do
can’t stop the pictures in my head
diffuse the bomb ticking beneath my bed
solder the lines
my eyes are burning bright
catch the fifty north
toward the light
and it’s a bullfight- outright
for circuitry new
be it by fair fight or not quite
I’m pushing it through
can’t stop the pictures in my head
diffuse the bomb ticking beneath my bed
need to rewire the pathways Astrid said
now that the bastard bird is dead
can’t stop the pictures in my head
can’t stop the pictures in my head
The Visitor
what a funny planet
Astrid pokes over her root beer float
is that the way you have it?
sad old folks
that’s not the way we left it
turn away for a sec- well that’s it
beg a second chance- enhance it
run the routine through
you finish what you do
turn away for a sec- well that’s it
beg a second chance- enhance it
is all that that can do
run your old program through?
what a funny planet
Astrid pokes
and before she can laugh
she’s got me on the ropes
can’t say it doesn’t matter
eternal mope
that’s not for lack of ladders
look at me for a sec- and face it
here’s your second chance- embrace it
run a routine through
clean your memory new
look at me for a sec- and face it
here’s your second chance- embrace it
believe in what you do
run your new program through
darker dreams and penguin bites
rocked your whole world into night
like a bad thumbdrive gave you a ride
split you in two
boolean knife
darker dreams and penguin bites
rocked your whole world into night
