Album: Ideas For Songs (1997)

Nothing Against You (Bored Spectre)

Friday's lecture was
All I needed
To
Clue me in

Your expertise
Is ancient
Please fill this thimble
Kiss it red, gold and green

We never go down
South of the mouth, just always waiting
To
Break on through
I paint it black
You paint it back to blue
I paint it black
You paint it back to blue
I paint it black
You paint it back to blue

Put down your Pussy Galore CD
Didn't mean to give you the blues
The blues

You travel light, right
So (fig?) this one
Simple contradiction
Hey, it's cool
Hey, it's (causal?)

So then it was true
I guess I'll leave it alone now
It's not enough just to stick it, singer
Give you a big hand

It's not enough when you're so tough
I try to be cruel when I can
I try to stay cruel when I could
I try to be cruel when I can
I try to stay cruel when I could
I try to be cruel when I can
I try to stay cruel when I could
I try to be cruel when I can

I
Am
The
Greek
God
Of the Silver Seas

If
I
Can't
Have
You
Then at least
(Shoobie doo wah?)
