Atlas Sound - Holiday



Atlas Sound - Holiday

I scared my parents
Now my parents are away
So you come over
We'll have a perfect holiday
I take you down
To the frozen lake
I'll hold the knife
To your perfect fucking face
To you perfect fucking face

I scared my parents
Now my parents are away
So you come over
We'll have a groovy holiday
A sixty El Camaro
Drive off into the sunset
On this perfect day
Oh please don't try to get away
Please please don't try to get away

I watched your parents
I know your parents are way
So I'll come over
We'll have a perfect holiday
I watch you bleed
On your knees
I watch you sneeze
Oh please don't try to get away
Please please don't try to get away
I'm desperate don't try to get away
We're all desperate don't try to get away

Dead Milkmen - If You Love Someone Set Them On Fire



Dead Milkmen - If You Love Someone Set Them On Fire

Know that it would be untrue
Know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
I didn't set your house on fire

But it's just the way I am
Have to take it for a fact
Life can really burn you up
When you're a pyromaniac
So...

If you love somebody
Better set them on fire

I went to your house last night
Dad called me the human torch
Got a little pissed at him
So I burned down your front porch

Now I feel a little better
About throwin' gas on your dad
But you know it's hard to quit
And besides he started it

I just bought a brand new lighter
And I just can't wait to use it
With a can a' kerosene it's lots a' fun
You can't refuse it

Oily rags are special things
You know to me they're diamond rings
Maybe we can have some fun
Maybe we can burn someone
So...

If you love somebody
Better set them on fire

Know that it would be untrue
Know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
I didn't set your dad on fire

If you love somebody
Better set them on fire

If you love somebody
Why not set them on fire?

If you love somebody
Better set them on fire

If you love somebody
Why not set them on fire

Orange Juice Jones - The Rain



Orange Juice Jones - The Rain

I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same.

Tossing and turning another sleepless night
The rain crashes against my window pane
Jumped into my car didn't drive too far
That moment I knew I would never be the same.

I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same.
I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same.

Now here you are begging to me
To give our love another try
Girl I love you and I always will
But darling right now I've got to say goodbye 'cause

I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same.
I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same.

(I saw you)
Hey hey baby how ya doin' come on in here
(Walking in the rain)
Got some hot chocolate on the stove waiting for you
Listen first things first let me hang up the coat
(You were holding hands and I'll)
Yeah how was your day today
Did you miss me
(Never be the same)
You did? Yeah? I missed you too
I missed you so much I followed you today
(I saw you)
That's right now close your mouth
'Cause you cold busted
(Walking in the rain)
Now just sit down here, sit down here
I'm so upset with you I don't know what to do
(You were holding hands and I'll)
My first impulse was to run up on you
And do a Rambo
(Never be the same)
Whip out the jammy and flat blast both of you
But I didn't wanna mess up
this thirty-seven hundred dollar lynx coat
So instead I chilled -- that's right chilled
I went to the bank and took out every dime.
Than I canceled all those credit cards, yeah, all your charge accounts
I stuck you up for every piece of jewelery
I ever bought you! That's right, everything, everything.
Don't go lookin' in that closet
Everything you came here with
Is packed up and waiting for you in the guest room.
What was you thinking about?
What you trying to prove
You don't mess with the Juice!
I gave you silk suits, blue diamonds and gucci handbags.
I gave you things you couldn't even pronounce!
But now I can't give you nothing but advice.
Cause you're still young, that's right you still young.
I hope you learn a valuable lesson from all this
And you're gonna find somebody like me one of these days
Until then, you know what you gotta do?
You gotta get on outta here
With that alley-cat-coat-wearing,
Hush-puppy-shoe-wearing crumbcake I saw you with.
Cause you dismissed!
That's right, silly rabbit,
Tricks are made for kids, don't you know that.
You without me is like corn flake without the milk!
This is my world.
You're just a squirrel trying to get a nut!
Now get on outta here.
Scat! Don't touch that coat...

Hank Williams - Kaw-Liga



Hank Williams - Kaw-Liga

Kaw-Liga, was a wooden Indian standing by the door
He fell in love with an Indian maid over in the antique store
Kaw-Liga, just stood there and never let it show
So she could never answer, "Yes" or "No".

He always wore his Sunday feathers and held a tomahawk
The maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk
Kaw-Liga, too stubborn to ever show a sign
Because his heart was made of knotty pine.

Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, he never got a kiss
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, he don't know what he missed
Is it any wonder that his face is red
Kaw-Liga, that poor ol' wooden head

Kaw-Liga, was a lonely Indian never went nowhere
His heart was set on the Indian maiden with the coal black hair
Kaw-Liga, just stood there and never let it show
So she could never answer "YES" or "NO".

Then one day a wealthy customer bought the Indian maid
And took her, oh, so far away, but ol' Kaw-Liga stayed
Kaw-Liga, just stands there as lonely as can be
And wishes he was still an old pine tree.

Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, he never got a kiss
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga, he don't know what he missed
Is it any wonder that his face is red
Kaw-Liga, that poor ol' wooden head
