Be my guide dog baby
Yeah you know my love is blind
It’s three a.m... room’s spinning
All the world’s just squirly lines
You’ve got to help me now baby
‘Cause I’ve forgotten what I’m trying to find
Woke up this morning
Someone lying in my bed
Please someone call a doctor
‘Cause I think she might be dead
And I thought I could hear sirens
But all the noise was in my head
Be my lie detector… give me reason to believe
That giving will be matched in kind
By things that I receive
And surgery may just save those
Who wear their hearts on their sleeves

Another World

She told me that she’d meet me at the station
I waited ‘round for hours but she never came
Now as you might guess I was a mite impatient now
A little more than hurt...
Let’s just say despaired
I don’t understand you girl and I prob’ly never will
Why do the other girls only seem
To make me think of you?
The world’s an oyster yeah and I’m a pearl
You’re just the native diver girl
‘Cause you irritate me….
Cut me from my shell
I’m threaded on a chain of mollusc fools
This is the Summer of Fools
And there’s no rags to riches
You’re the goddess bitch dog
With your coven of witches
The world’s a ball and I’m the chain
You’re just a prisoner of sad times
Well I’m not here to pick you up if it begins to rain
Who pays for these impassioned crimes?
You don’t understand me girl
You prob’ly never will
I come from another world
Where the trolls sing their song to the lonely hills
