Shoe Shine

I caught you stone cold staring at me from across the room
I swear I almost caught that disease
Shoe shining boy
You brought me down to my knees
and I don't wanna play your stupid game
But you called for shoe shine and in due time
I was slapping that rag and shining that shoe
I promised myself I'd never hide the truth
But shoe shine was such a new high
that I was slapping that rag and grinning that grin
but I promised myself I'd never shine again
You caught me stone cold wearing the sheets
and our gazes locked and you were
stone cold swearing at me
Shoe shining boy
You brought me down to my knees
and I don't wanna your stupid game
But you called for shoe shine and in due time
I was slapping that rag and shining that shoe
I promised myself I'd never hide the truth
But shoe shine was such a new high
that I was slapping that rag and grinning that grin
but I promised myself I'd never shine again
You've been there
You've done that
You know what I'm talking about
So note that it's over
there's no need to sit on that cloud
I've been there
I've done that
You know what I'm talking about
So don't look over my shoulder when I'm talking out loud

Tina Turner

Uncle Michael and my dad are in the back room
hanging out with Tina Turner on the couch
They're pretending like the kids don't ever notice
But it's hard to overlook those funny mouths
And the children
They're all busy with Nintendo
They're all drinking Coca Cola
chilling out
Granny Junie says her boys are going loony
Takes the kids out for a movie on the town
Then Tina Turner takes another call on her burner
'cause Tina Turner really likes helping out lads
like Uncle Mike and dad
And Tina Turner
She's unconcerned with sleeping
And Tina Turner
yeah she really makes me mad
Uncle Michael makes his voice like Donald Ducks
and he says words like 'shit' and 'fuck' to make me laugh
I'm pretending to be sleeping when the business
in the back room down the hallway's going down
But through the crack
I saw Tina Turner turning all these funny different colors
in my eyes
Tina Turner
She's a funny kind of person
She's the kind of girl to take you by surprise
Then Tina Turner takes another call on her burner
'cause Tina Turner really likes helping out lads
like Uncle Mike and dad
And Tina Turner
She's unconcerned with sleeping
And Tina Turner
yeah she really makes me mad
I'm in the living room hoping they open
the closest exit out from Tina
I'm hoping they open their eyes
I'm in the living room crossing my fingers
She lingers
Oh her name is Tina
I'm hoping they come out alright
I'm in the living room talking to people I made up
Put their names on paper
I'm hoping I've spoken them to life

Stuck in my Skin

Well I talked to God and he told me I
should do what I wanna do just don't hurt no one
I talked to the devil and he told me all the same things
Well they told me drugs would rattle my bones
and I hope that they've felt all the feelings I'm feeling now
Loosening up
Settling down
Wonder why everything seems so much clearer now
Well I bought a pack of smokes with my paycheck
I ripped them right open 'cause I've got no patience
They help me cope with the fact that I can't really breathe
And I bought a bag of dope with my paycheck
I smoked it all up and now I feel lazy
Well it helps me cope with the fact that I've never been clean
And I drank a rack of cheap beer from the station
I left all the bottles right here on the table
And they help remind me of all of the places I've been
Like stuck in my skin

Cranberry Sauce

I met a lady
She hadn't slept for days
and that's what she said
That hair was crazy
flying all over the place to keep her thoughts straight in her head
and that boyfriend
didn't know that the dead bolt lock slides open for me
and that poison
hits the veins and it burns but it tastes so sweet
Cranberry sauce concoction burning in the pot
but we forgot to check the temperature
and things got pretty hot
and we forgot to stir the sticky stuff
and now we're left with one big blob
'cause we forgot
We had business getting high
had business getting off
But she's not my baby
No in the room I saw the suit
and the shoes of another man
And my undertaker
is gonna be a too soon friend if his shoes walk into my plan
'cause that boyfriend
didn't know that the hinges on the door started creaking in
and that poison
is like a foe to the soul but my brain thinks it's found a friend
Cranberry sauce concoction burning in the pot
but we forgot to check the temperature
and things got pretty hot
and we forgot to stir the sticky stuff
and now we're left with one big blob
'cause we forgot
We had business getting high
had business getting off
