  • House of Smoke and Mirrors

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    There's the house There's the doorway Been locked out The lights are out anyway And loosely reconditioned To be just so refined A last grasp at the life worth living In these standard shoes and what's left of my lines You can see right through me Hey I've been thinking Why don't we get out of here tonight? Get in the car and just start driving Fuck them if they can't take a joke Right? I've fallen asleep again And when I wake up you won't be here Don't you think I don't know why? I've been asleep for years You can see right through me

  • Long Way Down

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    Today I'm leaving This bullshit one horse town Full of cowboys and indians Who only have balls when there's a camera around Where the girls they move to you When money gets thrown around Even happiness is using you Maybe you'll figure that out It's a long way down You know it's a damn shame the sun don't shine underground Maybe that's where it's been Maybe that's where I've been Maybe that's where it's been A long way down So today I'm leaving This bullshit circus town Do you ever get the feeling There ain't no hole when you're not around? Where the world it moves to you When the money gets spread around Even happiness is using you Maybe you'll figure that out It's a long way down You know it's a damn shame the sun don't shine underground Maybe that's where it's been Maybe that's where I've been Maybe that's where it's been A long way down

  • Double Life

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    How now are you gone awry? How now are we back here tonight? That's all there is Roll the dice This is all there is Roll the dice How now baby is a little bit enough of it When you live a double life? How now are you going to bite both hands? That's all there is Roll the dice This is all there is Roll the dice How now baby is a little bit enough of it When you live a double life? Well I knew but I've forgotten Because everyone keeps asking How come they feel so terrible If terrible is in fashion

  • Song for the Girl

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    This lightning's fine She picks up these tired parts of mine Who's carrying you tonight? She carries me all of mine Up again, down again, out of your head When she's beside you you're nearly not so dead Up again, down again, out of your head When she's beside you you're always at your best This lightning's fine She picks up these tired parts of mine Who's carrying you tonight? Every now and then baby Ain't it good to be alive? Up again, down again, out of your head When she's beside you you're nearly not so dead Up again, down again, out of your head When she's beside you you're always at your best So a song for the girl

  • Near Fantastica

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    The pink pills are for your sanity We are buried in the earth because we can't beat gravity You are still here and so made to figure You are an important part of the computer Born of the sea, blink The sea is dead Falls out of me these sockets in my head Everyone's a captain baby, ship of fools Drowning while they're telling you it's been all right Dream the dream of your attrition The nameless name of your condition It will be needing you a little while longer You are an important part of the computer After this mission it will let you go Help you to forget everything and everyone you know In a wold of captains baby, ship of fools Don't you know they're lying when they're telling you it's been all right?

  • Bright End of Nowhere

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    Here's the bright end of nowhere Here's the results of all our days Used to lay on the roof and drink beer And try and count up all the ways That you could waste away Looking back it seemed so simple But having done it I couldn't say The lights are out baby And I'm a mouse The lights are out Baby so hear me out The lights are out baby And I'm a mouse So here's the bright end of nowhere Here's the commercial of all our days Go on vacations and drink beer And try and forget all the ways We let ourselves get away Looking back it seemed so simple But having done it It's not the same The lights are out baby And I'm a mouse The lights are out Baby so hear me out The lights are out baby And I'm a mouse

  • While We Were Hunting Rabbits

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    Buy in it'll shut you up Try it, it should shut you up We've brought someone in to shut you up It's a life's work While we were hunting rabbits I came upon a clear The sky its stars like fortune drilled me Until now I was a soldier Until now I dealt in fear These years of cloak and dagger Have left us disappeared And I dance and I sing And I'm a monkey in a long line Buy in it'll shut you up Try it, it should shut you up We've brought someone in to shut you up And it's getting to be light work While we were hunting rabbits I came upon a clear The sky its stars like fortune filled me Until now I was a soldier Until now I dealt in fear These years of cloak and dagger Have left us disappeared And I dance and I sing And I'm a monkey in a long line of kings And we dance and we sing And we're all monkeys in a long line I'm just a boat on the ocean And I'm just a ship lost at sea

  • 21st Century Living

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    Fake lightning flahes over the skyline A deer in your headlights So gun it We're singing songs about 21st century living If hate's in your heart man You'll take what you're given

  • Avalanche

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    One foot in front of the other One foot back to counter it Days like these you've got to find it in some other way It's all or nothing baby Avalanche, start inside of me Avalanche, down through the trees Avalanche, start inside of me Avalanche, hell down through the trees If everyone's a casualty Then take your time there ain't no trouble If the weather's fine and we're fealing crazy There's always drinks and dancing in the rubble I'm spinning and you're spinning The world's spinning and we're laughing And I'm charming, the devil's charming And we're ruined but we're still building And I'm selling and you're counting The world's stopping but we keep going And we're ruthless and we're cunning And I'm heir to it all Days like these you've gotta find it in some other way It's all or nothing baby Avalanche, start inside of me Avalanche, down through the trees Avalanche, start inside of me Avalanche, hell down through the trees This key is to your kingdom This key is to your heart Neither one is a doorway But both of them a part So one foot in front of the other

  • In a World Called Catastrophe

    by cheeky_munkee on June 22, 2003
    Here it comes and there it goes Another day of decomposing light In a world called catastrophe, my native tongue is blasphemy So that's the one I'll write And baby can you feel it? Don't it make you want to lay down and close your eyes? Remember how we started, 'cause since then, I'm a waste Since then I'm a fool Since then I'm a dog In a world called catastrophe Since then I'm a waste Here it comes and there it goes Another day of getting up to fight In a world called catastrophe, my native tongue is blasphemy So it's the one I'll write And baby can you hear it? Don't it make you want to wake up and open your eyes? Remember how we started, 'cause since then, I'm a waste Since then I'm a fool Since then I'm a dog In a world called catastrophe Since then I'm a waste
