01 - Supermans's Dead

02 - Automatic Flowers

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do 

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do 

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do 

And Sara thinks she's died here once before
She's crazy
A pop-up book of flowers from grade 4
Are driving her insane
And no one knows why
She's sad tonight
No one can help her find

Crying, crying, oh she couldn't afford the view
Crying, crying, oh these automatic flowers won't do

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do 

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do 

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do 

Another brick
Another window frames confusion
Her garden blooms but Sara can't see straight
She's drinking herself blind

And no one knows why
She stares outside
No one can help her find

Crying, crying, oh she couldn't afford the view
Crying, crying, oh these automatic flowers won't do oh 
These automatic flowers won't do

High high

High high

High high

High high

She never admitted

She never considered this

She always means better

She's wasting all her time

Crying, crying, oh she couldn't afford the view
Crying, crying, oh these automatic flowers won't do oh 
These automatic flowers won't do oh 

These automatic flowers flowers won't do 

Won't do ow won't do won't do won't do won't do won't do won't do won't do 

03 - Carnival

You know you're not a strong man
And you're just about to cry
Hang on, hang on it's all right, it's all right

You worry about the future
Sign said "Yoga class for cats"
It's okay, it's okay

It's no fun

You're frustrated by the cracks 

In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down

But if this world would ever turn around

And the dynamite is waiting
Cause they bankrupted the sky

It's okay, it's okay

It's no fun

You're frustrated by the cracks 

In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down

But if this world would ever turn around

Break your mother's back 

If you step on the cracks

Everybody says

You're frustrated by the cracks 

In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down

But if this world would ever turn around

You'll be there
When everyone is sane ow

You'll be there

When everyone is sane ow

You'll be there
When everyone is sane

You'll be there

When everyone is sane ow

You'll be there

Do do do 

Do do do 

The carnival closed down

Closed down do do do 

Do do do do do 

The carvival closed down

Do do do...

04 -Big Dumb Rocket

Do de de hm hm hm, 

Hm hm hm hm 

I've never seen your breath before
But I'm disgusted by the thought of
Waiting anymore

And if I look up in your eyes
Will you notice me or notice it or
Fade into this accident

And I don't want to find
The big dumb rocket on your mind
And I don't want to find

That its mostly you and mostly me
And a tired gun that's not empty

I've never been this sad before
But I'm offended by my fingertips
And what they've done oh
And if I look up in your eyes
If it must be true you must believe
I've never held such violent things

And I don't want to find
The big dumb rocket on your mind
And I don't want to find

That its mostly you and mostly me
And a tired gun that's not empty

I've never talked to God before tonight
But I'm disgusted by it

And I don't want to find
The big dumb rocket on your mind
And I don't want to find

That its mostly you and mostly me
And a tired gun that's not empty

And I don't want to find
That its mostly you and mostly me
And a tired gun that's not...
 

05 - 4 am

06 - Shaking

So, you fucked this up again
It's time for you to leave
You never had many friends
And you thought this was all right
You're rushing to meditate
Should eat but probably wait
You never thought of yourself, of yourself

Why are you shaking?
Why are you right?
But I will be the only one who gives
And lets you in tonight

And lets you in tonight

Walk, you could never walk away
From a speedfreak collagen
Decaffinated place
You're always reaching in
Looking for somewhere to go
And nobody needs to find out
And nobody needs to know what you know, what you know

Why are you shaking?
Why are you right?
But I will be the only one who gives
And lets you in tonight

And lets you in tonight

Do do do do do 

Do do do do 

Do do do do do

So you wonder about the past
When you know that its already been
Nothing seems to last
Will it last? 

Can it last?

Why are you shaking?
Why are you right?
But I will be the only one who gives
And lets you in tonight

And lets you in tonight

Who lets you in

Who lets you in

Who lets you in

Who lets you

07 - Clumsy

Throw away the radio suitcase
That keeps you awake
Hide the telephone, the telephone, telephone, in case, 

You realize that sometimes you're not okay
You level off, you level off, you level off,

And its not all right now

You need to understand
There's nothing strange about this
You need to know your friends

You need to know that

I'll be waving my hand watching you drown
Watching you scream
Quiet or loud

And maybe you should sleep
And maybe you just need, a friend
As clumsy as you've been
There's no one laughing
You will be safe in here
You will be safe in here

Throw away this very old shoelace
That tripped you again
Try to shrug it off, shrug it off, shrug it off
It's only skin now
You need to understand
There's nothing fake about this
You need to let me in
I'm watching you

And I'll be waving my hand watching you drown
Watching you scream
No ones around

And maybe you should sleep
And maybe you just need, a friend
As clumsy as you've been
There's no one laughing
You will be safe in here ow
You will be safe in 

I'll be waving my hand watching you drown
Watching you scream
Quiet or loud

And maybe you should sleep
And maybe you just need, a friend
As clumsy as you've been
There's no one laughing
You will be safe in here ow ow
You will be safe in ow ow 

You will be safe in here, in here, ow ow ow ow , in here, ow ow , in here, ow ow ow ow ow, in here, ow ow ow, in here, ow ow ow ow, in here, ow ow

08 - Hello Oskar

Over there well he's wondering
Is Oskar there?

Is Oskar all right?
Was never cool not allowed to fit
He never knew what he liked

And over there he's the rubberman
A rubber dress with Betty Page eyes
Was never cool he'll never settle down
He's not allowed to drive

He'll build a bridge then walk around
Don't ever call him dumb
He's not that bright

He's not that bright

And he's not him

He's not him

I will take you somewhere
Somewhere to unwind
You're tangled up in all this shit
And I will make you mine

And I will make you mine

There's nothing wrong, he's a superstar

A taximan and a young Eisenstein

Was never cool he'll never settle down
He's not allowed to drive

He'll build a bridge then walk around
Leave that boy alone
He's not that bright

He's not uptight

And he's just not him

Not himself

And I will take you somewhere
Somewhere to unwind
You're tangled up in all this shit
But I will make you mine

And I will make you mine

I will take you  

I will take you

I will take you

I will take you

I will take you

I will take you

I will take you

I will take you 

And I can take you somewhere

Somewhere to unwind

You're tangled up in all this shit
And I will make you mine

But I will make you mine

And I will make you mine

Make you mine, mine, mine

Will make you mine, mine, mine

Will make you

But I can take you somewhere over

Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine

Make

09 - Let You Down

Hey what do you see
Its not me, it's not me
And why, why won't you share
It's not fair, it's not fair
There's a bicycle show
Where the bicycle's float
And I, I wouldn't of cared, 

I wouldn't have cared, 

I wouldn't of cared

And I won't be the one who bothers you
And I won't be the one who lets you down

Now, now that you're there
You're not scared, not scared
But why, why would you care
It's your dream, not theirs
There's a cigarette thief
Stealing cigarette disease
And I, I wish I was there

I wish I was there

I wish I was there

And I won't be the one who bothers you
And I won't be the one who lets you down

And I won't be the one who bothers you
And I won't be the one who lets you down

Who bothers you

And I won't be the one who bothers you
And I won't be the one who lets you down

And I won't be the one who bothers you
And I won't be the one who lets you down

Who bothers you

Who bothers you

Who bothers you

Bothers you

10 - The Story of 100 Aisles

Help yourself
If you know why you came
Cause if you need help she says
There's something I've got saved
This is not what you wanted
These candy coated fakes

This is not what you wanted
This is pain

This is pain

Anacin, we're stumbling again

Anacin
And it's the story of a hundred aisles

Walk away 

From simple on a tray
Cause if you need help she says
These fancy pills don't rate
This is not what you wanted
A miracle today

This is not what you wanted
This is pain

This is pain

Anacin, we're stumbling again

Anacin
And it's the story of a hundred aisles

Time is not for sale today
And time seems so far away

And time is not for sale today
You need more than this
Depressed come here, try this

Anacin, we're stumbling again

Anacin
And it's the story of a hundred aisles

Anacin, we're stumbling again

Anacin
And it's the story of a hundred aisles

Anacin
 

11 - Car Crash

Tired and jaded
This road is unsafe
Have you been there, have you been there
But time is on your side
You're too stubborn to wait
Are you listening, are you listening
They want you to know
They want you to stay
Oh its too much to take
So you're running, running away

But ow ow 

And ow ow 

owwwwwwww 
It's more than I can bear

owwwwwwww

It's more than I can bear

Car crash
Ending your day
At the side of the road
Are you trembling?

Are you trembling?
They'll wake up today
To the papers that say
"Oh well" it was too hard to tell
He was swerving, they were swerving
Much too late

And ow ow

But ow ow

Owwwwwwww

owwwwwwww 
It's more than I can bear

owwwwwwww

It's more than I can bear

owwwwwwww

Huh huh huh
