I had another dream tonight
it's kinda hard to follow
about me finding a baby
in a fast food party room
beside a box of chocolates
and a picture of a naked lady
he threw his hands up and I could see
yeah he was so fired up
I thought that I should get some air
but before I strolled I spoke up
hey baby whatcha doin' here?
hey baby how'd ya get in here?
then the baby suddenly disappeared
and all the lights went out
my mouth opened no sound came out
I found the devil standing about
ten steps down a hill from me
wearing pumps and a Zappa t
a motherfuckin' monstrosity
yeah she threw her hands up into the sky
and I could see she was so fucked up
I thought that I should get some help
but before I called I spoke up
hey Satan whatcha doin' here?
hey Satan how'd ya get in here?
hey Satan are you seein' clear?
then Satan whispered in my ear
yeah it's my birthday don't try to get away
you're only gonna make my heart explode
hey Satan whatcha doin' here?
hey Satan how'd ya get in here?
hey Satan I like what I hear
then Satan slowly disappeared

Road Tripper

the magic door was a surprise
I found it on my way
sailing in a silver satellite
mouth open wide with an orbit tight
through the stratosphere tonight
there's a plan to stoke this tired star back to life
a simple line
through space and time
the light inside me got so low I couldn't even feel it
I lost my heart out on the road just when I need it
I could trip backwards into time
pull a parachute
maybe float through space and out of sight
but here inside young western eyes
the sky's so beautiful tonight
watching mountains disappear into hazy twilight
clear my mind
one more time
the light inside me got so low I couldn't even feel it
I lost my heart out on the road just when I need it
to beat
so I can face the east
get back on the road
and go

Velvet Elvis

we stepped inside the bar was dead
yet he was getting busy
his studded belt was way too tight
strange combination of shtick
leftover from the eighties
his red t-shirt it reads 'Fuck Toronto'
here comes something lookin' like a man
dancin' all night to your clappin' hands
if all you ever do is go down just for fun
he's the one
his name was Velvet Elvis
yeah I know some people thought our friend V.E.
was rocking steady
shot after shot he wailed all night
that's right
about pony tails and laser beams
and unicorns in skinny ties
who knew this piece of shit
had a voice of gold

Sunshine & Dominoes

I met a girl once in a shop
she enjoyed a good flash mob
she showed up acting slow
and stoned yeah
her a forty people in a porn shop
scream 'dirty sandbox'
nine times before walking out
slow lighting up a smoke
she is sunshine and dominoes
she is the air for all of us
dominoes and sunshine every day of my life
dominoes and sunshine
I'm too late they're all gone yeah
I'm too late
she liked to wink for the boys
when they shoot with the flash bulbs
I heard that steals your soul yeah
she's a star
high
burning bright
cornered off in her own system
coming through and taking you
everywhere she flows
