Slaphead Lyrics
I'm Away
You say forever
and I confess a shiver
when i'm away
my heart ??? ?beating?
you say hope
i saw that's where i'm going
when i'm away
my heart is ??? ?beating?
when i'm away
If i'm out hunting
???, come on in
when i'm away
my doors are always open
but if i'm asleep
make sure my blanket covers me
??? ??
I'm away
I'm away
????
My heart beats slow ?? my heart
My heart is ?? ?eat it?
No! No! No! ??don't you eat it??
To be in the shade
the tallest trees above my head
when I'm away
I feel the earth beneath me
when I'm away
when I'm away
I'M AWAY!
Remember Bonnie
uh huh, uh huh
when i'm dead
no one gets nothing except for him
uh huh, uh huh
when i'm dead
I've Got a dog
he's very smart
he's the kind of dog that says very little
and once in a while
he makes me wonder
why I bother
with people at all
remember bonnie?
she was the prettiest girl in school
I had a crush on her
but I felt like an idiot
and to square to make
more than a joke
but thats just what i made
you see I finally gathered the courage to ask her out
?but my mother would drive us of course?
but then she started to laugh
because my shoes were untied
and my shirt tail was out
and my fly was down
and my hair was a mess
I woke up in a sweat
my heart was thumping away
i remember the day
i remember the day!
YEAH!
To my dog, I am the coolest thing ever
almost a god
and he listens to every word i say
every syllable weighs
heavily on his dog head
when I said "stay" he stayed
and then he snuck away
but he hears what I say
he listens to every word
once in a while
he makes me wonder
why I bother
with people at all
thats why i'm giving it all to him
uh huh, uh huh
when I'm dead
no one gets nothing except for him
Got a Heart
A giant heart is in my room
won't you come see
it's a symbol of simple love
like in the movies
I feed it often
someone special
god help me
make this ?very monster? happy
got a heart!
got a heart! oh oh!
got a heart!
got a bad heart!
My big heart is overflowing
with people like you who can't see
that my big heart is all knowing
he see's through the ?lies of the lover's dress?
I feed it carefully
someone special
god help me
make this ?very monster? happy
got a heart!
got a heart! oh oh!
got a heart!
got a bad heart!
a giant heart is hard to please
hard to live with hard to feed
a giant heart leaves no evidence
leaves no evidence
leaves no evidence
NO EVIDENCE!
got a heart!
got a heart!
got a bad heart! oh oh oh!!!
Straight up
I'm not a good team player
she said with a smile
that made me want to believe her
she said "tell me about the world that you see"
alright dear
everything you want is here
everything you want right here
everything's in the sound of my voice
I haven't thought much of her since
turn her face into innocence!
i'm scared
i feel like a school child
so i light a match and I drop it in the dry grass
??do a thing that hurt my hand??
???????
I dreamed I could fly like a rocket man
in a fighter jet..??
i dreamed i could fly like superman
straight up!
straight up!
When the flames are gone
?and the church is gone?
I take her there and brag about what I've done
it makes her laugh
and we danced in the ashes
I said "everything you want is here"
everything you want right here
everything's in the sound of my voice
I dreamed I could fly like a rocket man
and a fighter jet ??
I dreamed I could fly like superman
I dreamed I could fly, yeah, straight up
??if I was a boy I'd be a hero??
if he only had the right plan
he took it upon himself to find out
exactly what a hero meant
Zsa Zsa
(some moaning)
Understand
Saturday
??
with your hand held tight
white gloves, bibles
the buzz of flys
I know that somewhere
the saints still are there
they can get together, they can talk about it
they can understand
My held held tight
my bodies aches
pressed against the weight of the gospel
i know that somewhere
the saints gather around
they watch me with wisdom and patience
i hope they understand
the summer falls like a ??
my body sweats beneath her
my purpose is clearer
???
oh!! uh-huh!
you can understand, you can understand
you can understand
I don't understand
I don't understand
I Come From the Water
I come from the water
I crawled upon the shore
I left my brothers there
I got what I came for
I sucked that hot air in
And rolled upon the sand
Emerged beneath the sun
To be a man.
I come from the water
I come from the water
That weren't no easy thing
It's more than nature
It's like my destiny
I stood upon these legs
And held my head up high
Emerged beneath the sun
To start a new life
I Come From the water
Life in the desert
Just to be together
The sand forever
The same forever
It moves beneath me
It pulls my body
My pulse beats hotter
So far from the water
I love to see the sun
In spite of all it's done
I pray for shade and rain
I pray to live again
I come from the water
My Bones
my bones are forever in
my hopes live in him
i can feel my bones when I see them grin
I wanna be more than ??
into the sea
when i'm an old man i will think of these things
??
i can see the bones pushing through my skin
my body aches
my ?? skin
i wanna be ?? an old man sailing?? into the sea
ok, ok
if i hollar
my breath was rushing
through the hollow of my body
if i cry
my tears will dry
in the desert of my body
my body aches!
my ?? ?? is dead
my body aches!
my bones are dead
i wanna be ?? an old man sailing into the sea ??
my ?tumor? is dead
my ?tumor? is dead
my bones are dead dead dead dead
dead
