King of Carrot Flowers, Part 1
When you were young you were the king of carrot flowers
And how you built a tower tumbling through the trees
In holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your feet
And your mom would stick a fork right into daddy's shoulder
And dad would throw the garbage all across the floor
As we would lay and learn what each other's bodies were for
And this is the room one afternoon I knew I could love you
And from above you how I sank into your soul
Into that secret place where no one dares to go
And your mom would drink until she was no longer speaking
And dad would dream of all the different ways to die
Each one a little more than he could dare to try
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
King of Carrot Flowers, Parts 2-3
Part Two
I love you Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ, I love you, yes I do
I love you Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ, I love you, yes I do
And on the lazy days
The dogs dissolve and drain away
The world it goes and always waits
The day we are awaiting
Part Three
Up and over, we go through the wave and undertow
I will float until I learn how to swim
Inside my mother the garbage bin
Until I find myself again, again
Up and over we go with mouths open wide and spitting still
I will spit until I learn how to speak
Up through the doorway as the sideboards creak
With them ever proclaiming me, me
Up and over we go, the weight it sits on down and I don't know
I will shout until they know what I mean
I mean the marriage of a dead dog sing
And a synthetic flying machine, machine
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Aeroplane over the Sea
What a beautiful face I have found in this place
That is circling all 'round the sun
What a beautiful dream that could flash on the screen
In the blink of an eye and be gone from me
Soft and sweet
Let me hold it close and keep it here
With me
And one day we will die and our ashes will fly
From the aeroplane over the sea
But for now we are young, let us lay in the sun
And count every beautiful thing we can see
Love to be
In the arms of all I'm keeping here
With me
What a curious life we have found here tonight
There is music that sounds from the street
There are lights in the clouds, Anna's ghost all around
Hear her voice as it's rolling and ringing through me
Soft and sweet
How the notes all bend and reach above
The trees
Now how I remember you, how I would push my fingers through
Your mouth to make those muscles move that made your voice so smooth and sweet
But now we keep where we don't know, all secrets sleep in winter clothes
With one you loved so long ago, now he don't even know his name
What a beautiful face I have found in this place
That is circling all 'round the sun
When we meet on a cloud I'll be laughing out loud
I'll be laughing with everyone I see
Can't believe
How strange it is to be anything
At all
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two-Headed Boy
Two-headed boy
All floating in glass
The sun it has passed, now it's blacker than black
I can hear as you tap on your jar
I am listening to hear where you are
I am listening to hear where you are
Two-headed boy
Put on Sunday shoes
And dance 'round the room to accordion keys
With the needle that sings in your heart
Catching signals that sound in the dark
Catching signals that sound in the dark
We will take off our clothes
And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking everything that you could keep inside
Now your eyes ain't moving now, they just lay there in their clouds
Two-headed boy
With pulleys and weights
Creating a radio play just for two
In the parlor with a moon across her face
And through the music he sweetly displays
Silver speakers that sparkle all day
Made for his lover who's floating
And choking with her hands across her face
And in the dark we will take off our clothes
And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking everything that you could keep inside
Now your eyes ain't moving now, they just lay there in their clouds
Two-headed boy
There's no reason to grieve
The world that you need is wrapped in gold silver sleeves
Left beneath Christmas trees in the snow
And I will take you and leave you alone
Watching spirals of white softly flow
Over your eyelids and all you did
Will wait until the point when you let go
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Holland, 1945
Two... One, two, three, four...
The only girl I've ever loved was born with roses in her eyes
But then they buried her alive one evening, 1945
With just her sister at her side
And only weeks before the guns all came and rained on everyone
Now she's a little boy in Spain
Playing pianos filled with flames
On empty rings around the sun
All sing to say my dream has come
But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves at least
Enough to carry on
And now we ride the circus wheel with your dark brother wrapped in white
Says it was good to be alive
But now he rides a comet's flame and won't be coming back again
The earth looks better from a star that's right above from where you are
He didn't mean to make you cry
With sparks that ring and bullets fly
On empty rings around your heart
The world just screams and falls apart
But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves at least
Enough to carry on
And here's where your mother sleeps
And here is the room where your brothers were born
Indentations in the sheets
Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore
And it's so sad to see
The world agree
That they'd rather see their faces filled with flies
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Communist Daughter
Sweet communist, the communist daughter
Standing on the sea-weed water
Semen stains the mountaintops
Semen stains the mountaintops
With coca leaves along the border
Sweetness swings from every corner
Cars careening from the clouds
The bridges burst and twist around
And wanting something warm and moving
Bend towards herself, the soothing
Proves that she must still exist
She moves herself about her fist
Sweet communist, the communist daughter
Standing on the sea-weed water
Semen stains the mountaintops
Semen stains the mountaintops
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh Comely
Oh comely, I will be with you when you lose your breath
Chasing the only meaningful memory you thought you had left
With some pretty, bright and bubbly
Terrible scene that was doing her thing on your chest
But oh comely
It isn't as pretty as you'd like to guess
In your memory you're drunk on your awe to me
It doesn't mean anything at all
Oh comely, all of your friends are all letting you blow
Bristling and ugly, bursting with fruits falling out from the holes
Of some pretty, bright and bubbly
Friend you could need to say comforting things in your ear
But oh comely
There isn't such one friend that you could find here
Standing next to me, he's only my enemy
I'll crush him with everything I own
Say what you want to say
Hang for your hollow ways
Moving your mouth to pull out all your miracles
Aimed for me
Your father made fetuses with flesh-licking ladies
While you and your mother were asleep in the trailer park
Thunderous sparks from the dark of the stadiums
The music and medicine you needed for comforting
So make all your fat, fleshy fingers to moving
And pluck all your silly strings and bend all your notes for me
And soft silly music is meaningful, magical
The movements were beautiful, all in your ovaries
All of them milking with green, fleshy flowers
While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines
Smelling of semen all under the garden
Was all you were needing when you still believed in me
Say what you want to say
Hang for your hollow ways
Moving your mouth to pull out all your miracles
Aimed for me
I know they buried her body with others
Her sister and mother and five hundred families
And will she remember me fifty years later?
I wished I could save her in some sort of time machine
Know all your enemies
We know who our enemies are
Know all your enemies
We know who our enemies are
Goldaline, my dear
We will fold and freeze together
Far away from here
There is sun and spring and green forever
But now we move to feel
For ourselves inside some stranger's stomach
Place your body here
Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ghost
Ghost, ghost, I know you were within me, feel you as you fly
In from the clouds above the city, into one that I loved
With all that was left within me 'till we tore in two
Now wings and rings and there's so many waiting here for you
And she was born in a bottle rocket, 1929
With wings that ringed around a socket right between her spine
All drenched in milk in holy water pouring from the sky
I know that she will live forever, she won't ever die
She goes
And now she knows she'll never be afraid
To watch the morning paper blow
Into a hole where no one can escape
And one day in New York City, baby, a girl fell from the sky
From the top of a burning apartment building fourteen stories high
And when her spirit left her body, how it split the sun
I know that she will live forever, all goes on and on
And she goes
And now she knows she'll never be afraid
To watch the morning paper blow
Into a hole where no one can escape
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two-Headed Boy, Part 2
Daddy, please hear this song that I sing
In your heart there's a spark that just screams for a lover to bring
A child to your chest that could lay as you sleep
And love all you have left like your boy used to be long ago, wrapped in sheets warm and wet
Blister please with those wings in your spine
Love to be with a brother of mine, how he'd love to find
Your tongue in his teeth in a struggle to find
Secret songs that you keep wrapped in boxes so tight, sounding only at night as you sleep
And in my dreams you're alive and you're crying
As your mouth moves in mine, soft and sweet
Rings of flowers 'round your eyes and I'll love you
For the rest of your life when you're ready
Brother, see we are one in the same
And you left with your head filled with flames and you watched as your brains
Fell out through your teeth, push the pieces in place, make your smile sweet to see
Don't you take this away, I'm still wanting my face on your cheek
And when we break, we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies
When we break, we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your life
Two-headed boy, she is all you could need
She will feed you tomatoes and radio wires
And retire to sheets safe and clean
But don't hate her when she gets up to leave
