MUCHACHO

Maybe I shouldn't have tried it
Maybe the walls have always been paper thin
I guess I could have denied it
I guess my words don't mean anything to him
But I know that I'm right
The thought has crossed my mind from time to time
Colour my face and call me Pikachu
I'm still crying over my Muchacho
Colour my face and call me Pikachu
I'm still crying over my Muchacho
WHY-Y-Y-AH-AH-WHOAH-AH-AH-AH-OUH
WHY-Y-Y-AH-AH-WHOAH-AH-AH-AH-OUH
Maybe I shouldn't have tried it
I'm smarter than I look but dumber than I think
Do you want to see a movie? - No!
I can't remember the last time we had a drink
I've heard you moved away
While I'm working through the day
Colour my face and call me Pikachu
I'm still crying over my Muchacho
Colour my face and call me Pikachu
I'm still crying over my Muchacho
WHY-Y-Y-AH-AH-WHOAH-AH-AH-AH-OUH
WHY-Y-Y-AH-AH-WHOAH-AH-AH-AH-OUH
Why do I give my valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die?
Why do you still not look me in the eye?
You know she's not around
When the walls come tumbling down
Colour my face and call me Pikachu
I'm still crying over my Muchacho
Colour my face and call me Pikachu
I'm still crying over my Muchacho
All of my friends live downtown
(All of my friends live downtown)
All of my friends live down-
AAAAH
Colour my face and call me Pikachu
Colour my face and call me Pikachu

can we talk about me?
03:29

You talk about you and you talk about me
Well, it doesn't really matter much to me
You talk about you, about Kalamazoo
And I remember when you used to feel brand new
I've had an hour of conversations and I'm done
But when you called, I really felt like hanging on
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, talk, talk, talk about me?
Oh yeah
Oh you got a job? And you got a girl?
And I have got no possibility to go
Well now you're done - I will pretend
Well, it sounded silly and it turned me off
I've had an hour of conversations and I'm done
But when you called, I really felt like hanging on
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, talk, talk, talk about me?
Oh yeah
I fuck like an Earthquake, let me buy you a milkshake
If you only asked me of what I'm supposed to do
"You can only babble about you", but there's nothing I can do
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, can we talk, can we taaaalk
Can we talk, talk, talk, talk about me?

I think we're alone now
03:45

It's a coin toss for Black Jack and a bad dream
It's a "game on" towards the silver sun
Do you think I'd let you down if you were down on your knees?
You should know me better, better than this
And I came from outer space to drink the water that you gave
I think we're alone now, I think that it's over now
The damage ain't whole done, the damage ain't over now
Hello, I'll be cheering you on no matter where you go
You go to where the statue proves you wrong
It says you can't fall down to the other side of town

Baby (Baby), I've been so distant from you lately
That's maybe (maybe), because the big screen serves me greatly
I sprawl and slop and lounge about, I stare until my eyes pop out
I need to see what folks can see there
Television Bubble Life
Television Bubble Man
Television Bubble save me from myself
Television Bubble Life
Television Bubble Man
Television Bubble save me from myself
Television Bubble Life
Now this, my brain becomes as soft as cheese
(He's living in a television bubble)
And I wonder if we could sting the damn police
(He's living in a television bubble life)
I jap, I gasp, I medicate, I swing and start to contemplate
I need to feel what folks can feel there
Television Bubble Life
Television Bubble Man
Television Bubble save me from myself

Television Bubble save me from myself

I sprawl and slop and lounge about
I stare until my eyes pop out
I need to see what folks can see there
I jap, I gasp, I medicate
I swing, I start to contemplate
I need to feel what folks can feel there - hoaaaa

Buy My Art Before I Die
03:41

Kiss me where the sun don't shine
Coca Cola and red wine
Far too much and out of sight
You could buy my art before I die
Super smart and a little bit sexual
A goon or a bachelor
Yeah, I'm pretty darn flexible
Stay with me, I won't disappoint
And buy my art before I die, yeah buy my art before I die
Stay with me, I will give you a home
And buy my art before I die, yeah buy my art before I die
Do you really need the same old band?
Or is it just another red right hand?
I've heard the same song a million, a million, a million times within
A few days on my playlist
The same formula, the same AH-AH-AH-AH-AH
Stay with me, I won't disappoint
And buy my art before I die, yeah buy my art before I die
Stay with me, I will give you a home
And buy my art before I die, yeah buy my art before I die
You might fool the kids, but watch out, I'm onto this and
You might fool the kids, but watch out, I'm onto this
Do you have an ounce of self-respect?
Then turn off the WiFi - HAAAAAH
Stay with me, I won't disappoint
And buy my art before I die, yeah buy my art before I die
Stay with me, I will give you a home
And buy my art before I die, yeah buy my art before I die
You might fool the kids, but watch out, I'm onto this and
You might fool the kids, but watch out, I'm onto this

Song for JMB
03:34

There were times I thought I'd be a star
Opportunity's worth
I thought you wished to live with me
See the result, that stuff ain't any worth
And I narrow it down to the center of the Earth
I don't care about what people say
They don't know what I'm about
I hear they think I'm S-A-M-O
Before they tumble, I create their universe
And I narrow it down, that stuff ain't any worth
Sing with me - the song with the coconut
Under the walnut tree I thought we'd never even stop to see
JMB gallery, give me my coconut before I move along
It's not who you are that holds you back
(It's not who you are that holds you back)
It's who you think that you are not
(It's who you think that you are not)
I see them walking down the street with their eyes in their hands
And I wonder if you could draw them would you sit next to me
And I wonder if you could draw them would you sit next to me
Sing with me - the song with the coconut
Under the walnut tree I thought we'd never even stop to see
JMB gallery, give me my coconut before I move along
Sing with me - the song with the coconut
Under the walnut tree I thought we'd never even stop to see
JMB gallery, give me my coconut before I move along
Sing with me, coconut, walnut tree, never even stop to stee
Gallery, coconut, move along
Sing with me, coconut, walnut tree, never even stop to stee
Gallery, coconut, move along
Sing with me, coconut, walnut tree, never even stop to stee
Gallery, coconut, move along

Art School Kids

Ricky always wanted to be one of the Art School Boys
they hoaxed on him, they picked on him
Well, the bloke had a funny voice
One day he came around, then they dragged him to the ground
He felt the sky had turned red, golden brown pronounced him dead
There was this girl called Evelyn with a silverbullet heart
A tournament in experiment, "speedball" was the art
She declared her endless love to the substance from above
Though sparks went through her veins, she was not the heroine
And I said Go, Go, g-g-g-go
Oops, I OD'd, 'cause you've given me a speedball, a speedball and I'm running dry
Barry wanted to show me his favourite restaurant
He wears grillz in the night to hide his braces
The bullies forced him to deny his point of view
And when his mother came around, they just shot the poor guy down
There is not a single one of Art School Kids that turned out to be an Art School Kid as I had imagined Art School Kids to be like
