pop's love
suicide

music: d. deleo
lyrics: weiland
Can you figure out what I want, /pull the trigger with a pop gun / Mindless fools that aggravate /it pick at you in desperation / Oh it's a love pop suicide / Oh I'm in love pop suicide / Pop life living is so real / Midwest farmers' kids are milk fed / Breed and incubate what you see / Ten years later here on t.v. / Oh it's a love pop suicide / I'm in love pop suicide / Father can't you love your women / Father can't you teach your children / Long range love implosion short wicked / Short wave mind explosion / Oh I'm in love suicide, / about a pop star homicide
tumble in the rough
music: weiland
lyrics: weiland
I can't eat / I can't sleep / I can't live / I can't cry / I can't die / I can't walk / I can't talk / Booze / I can booze / Steal your shoes / So I can move / Tumble in the rough / Tumble in the rough / Tumble in the rough / I'm looking for a new mediation / Still looking for a new way to fly / Don't want any plastic validation / Not looking for a new way to die / I made excuses for a million lies / But all I got was humble kidney pie / So what / I'm lookin' for a new stimulation / Quite bored of those inflatable ties / I'm lookin' for a new rock sensation / Dead fish don't swim around in jealous tides / I made excuses for a million lies / But all I got was humble kidney pie / So what
big bang baby
music: r. deleo
lyrics: weiland
I got a picture of a photograph / Of a wedding and a shell / It's just a burning aching memory / I never kiss and tell / So turn it up and burn it / There's a hole in your head / There's a hole in your head / Where the birds can't sing along / Does anybody know how the story really goes / Or do we all just hum along / Sell your soul and sign an autograph / Big bang baby, it's a crash, crash, crash / I wanna die, but I gotta laugh / Orange crush mama is a laugh, laugh, laugh / Spin me up, spin me, spin me out / Station to station send me up and out / is that what life and love is all about / I think I think so / We used to see in color / Now it's only black and white / It's only black and white / Because the world is color blind / Nothing's for free, nothing's for free / Take it away boys / Nothing's for free, nothing's for free / Take it away boys

lyrics: weiland
Lady picture show, /she hides behind the bedroom door / Lady picture show /she hides behind the bedroom wall / She hides because /she don't know nothin', /don't know nothin' anymore / She keeps a funny face /it's locked and bagged /it's just outside the door / She doesn't know her name / She doesn't know her face / She doesn't know her name / She doesn't know her face anymore / And don't believe / Lady picture show, / she hides behind the bedroom door / Lady picture girl, I think them boys don't like your show / Lady picture show /them boys are gone, /should just say no / Your wedding presents' /not so daisy picture perfect anymore / Lady funny face / it's locked and bagged /it's just outside the door / Don't know nothin' anymore

music: r. deleo
lyrics: weiland
And so I know, it's begun again / Never be the same, and with that I said / Never ever be this way again / Hold on till the end / (campfire girls make me feel alright) / (Campfire girls make me feel alright) / Like it's the last hello / Whirlwinds and roller coasters / Long grass making shapes hello / Disappearing, disappearing floating graves / Never, ever, ever, ever be this way / Never ever be this way again / And so I know /(campfire girls make me feel alright) / (Campfire girls make me feel alright) / It's begun again / Never the same, and with that I said / Campfire girls, make me feel alright

music: kretz
lyrics: weiland
Don't cut out my paper heart, I ain't dyin' anyway / Take a look at eye full towers / Never trust them dirty liars / Sippin' lemon yellow booze / 'ole' leadbelly sings the blues / All dressed up on wedding day / keep on trippin' anyway / I am I am I said I'm not myself, /but I'm not dead and I'm not for sale / So keep your bankroll lottery /eat your salad day deathbed motorcade / Fake the heat and scratch the itch / Skinned up knees and salty lips / I'll breathe your life vicks vapor life / And when you binge I purge alike / Let go it's harder holding on / One more trip and I'll be gone / So keep your head up / Keep it on, just a whisper I'll be gone / Take a breath and make it big / It's the last you'll ever get / Break your neck with diamond noose / It's the last you'll ever choose / I am I am I said I'm not myself, / but I'm not dead and I'm not for sale / Hold me closer, closer /let me go let me be just let me be

I gotta girlfriend, she goes to art school / I gotta art school girlfriend yeah / I gotta girlfriend, she gotta girlfriend / We gotta girlfriend, girlfriend gotta go / She left her home from sweet Alabama / Rose Alabama for the city, New York City yeah / I told you five or four times / I gotta girlfriend, she goes to parties / Underground parties, Andy Warhol everywhere / She wears the leather, I wear the makeup / We'll never break up, been together for a month / She left her home from Sweet Alabama / Rose Alabama for the city, New York City yeah / I told you five or four times
adhesive
music: r. deleo
lyrics: weiland
My friend Blue he runs the show / With hot pink purple china glow / His family trees are molded / no longer grows in summer / He holds it closer lets it go / Picks a fruit but keeps it whole / Can't keep the submarining / Can't keep the light from fading / Grab the hate and drown it out / Grab the beat and drum it out / It's all so confusing / Have a listen lend an ear / Here's a song now if ya care / We can all just hum along / Words don't matter anymore / Adhesive love adhesive / Ain't the same for you and me / Cartoons like reality dogs and cats and children / The deepest wound is hidden / Ain't the same for you and me / Comatose commodity the super heroes dyin' / All the children cryin' / Sell more records if I'm dead / Purple flowers once again / Hope it's sooner. /Hope it's near corporate records' fiscal year / Down the river, down the river / / Flyin' high across the plain / Purple flowers ease the pain / Here, now have a listen / Ain't the songs you're missin' / Down the river, down the river / Stitch the womb and wet the bed / with a whisper I'll be dead / Don't let the living die yet! Grab the hate... / Drown it out. Grab the beat... / Drum it out. It's all so confusing / Adhesive Love Adhesive
ride the cliche
music: d. deleo
lyrics: weiland
She no wait, but she know me / Intake purge, it's my disease / / Hold me closer let me be / Hold me closer let me go away / Barely know you know my name / Trip the witch and ride the shame / Just because you're so cliched / It don't mean you won't get paid

seven caged tiger
music: d. deleo
lyrics: weiland
Pass the time kickin' as time rips by / Neither goose nor the gander fly / Buy a minute spend an hour burnin', burnin' / Take a peak as the model earns it, earns it / Walk a mile as it keeps crawlin', crawlin' / Clean the politician, wash with everpure / So the answer gets harder, harder / And the truth's getting farther and farther / And the bottle keeps churnin' and churnin' / Seven caged tigers fly / Wastin' time chasin' those cows that fly / Churnin' out all that butterfly sugarboost / Track the blade as it sweeps downward and onward / Take a pill it'll kill all the martyrs, martyrs / Passin' time rippin' as time kicks by / Pass the umbilical cord down for this fly by / Take a sneak while the model earns it earns it / Hike a mile as it keeps crawlin' on crawlin' on
