SILENT SKIN

THE ANTI-WIFE
LONELY CHILD

ANON (ONE DAY AT A TIME)
woke up this morning in my underwear · I felt pretty good then · I had time to spare · and though it was raining · I had it all going on · I got lots to laugh at · I got plenty to share
everything's gonna be alright · one day at a time · everything's gonna be alright · one day at a time · and though it was raining · I had it all going on · I got lots to laugh at · I got plenty to share
I'm good at relaxing · I like to kick back · when I go to the steam room · I get my hampton out · I get plenty of love from all the kids I meet · I get a sense of fun from them · it just can't be beat
I know a man with problems so self absorbed · he couldn't see nothing past the end of his world · his life was grey then · it was hard to see · but I got the number · I got the recipe
everything's gonna be alright · one day at a time · everything's gonna be alright · one day at a time · I get plenty of love from all the kids I meet · I get a sense of fun from them · it just can't be beat
on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
I got respect for jesus · he was a lovely geez · as for little buddha · I like keanu reeves · there are so many lessons · I like to mix them up · like a temporary filling · a twenty four hour cup
so what if life's what you wanted or what if it's not · there's always time to turn around or drive around the block · the grass is always greener and I don't mean to be crass · but the light is here when the life is here · so make the most of it now
on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
SILENT SKIN
the silent skin you live in · the secret skin that never tears · the fibre sharp that never wastes · wrap softly silent tissue · my thoughts are always with you
the dress that you debut in · hides more than mystery play · it yields more treasure every day · it stalks its lovers to the grave · in lines and fragrant passing · my thoughts are everlasting
I am love in you · I am · I am love · I am love in you · I am · I am love
the silent skin you live with · the sacred light which glows from you · it sheds a light that no one knows · it leads me to your bed at night · in lies and scarlet slippers · and promises forever
I am love in you · I am · I am love · I am love in you · I am · I am love
the silent skinny dipping · makes most of hollywood nights · a shepherdess in cotton fields · the tightest margin to the end · in times of low retention · my dream is everlasting
I am love in you · I am · I am love
ODE TO RICHARD PRINCE
so I went to see my doctor the other day · I said 'doc I think my wife's dead' · he said 'well why do you think that?' · I said 'well the sex is the same but the dishes keep pilling up'
I got home from work early one day last week · I went into the bedroom and my wife's in bed with my best friend · I said 'steve I have to sleep with her but you?'
my wife is so ugly even the tide wouldn't take her out
THE ANTI-WIFE
the anti-wife · she won't come with you when you win your award · too busy thinking that she's got a life
the anti-wife · she'll choose furniture · she'll make the tea · but don't go looking for validity
her friends and family are fraternity · but not your mother with her twisted knee
the anti-wife
the mercedes is her own reward · for all the offers she never did record
be thankful she was glad · sometime soon she has to settle down · just don't expect any help with the crown
her friends and family are fraternity · but not your brother with his failed degree
the anti-wife
her friends and family are fraternity · but not your mother with her twisted knee
the anti-wife · the anti-wife · the anti-wife · the anti-wife · the anti-wife
LONELY CHILD
I don't want you to be alone · lonely child like me · lonely child who trusts no one and finds it hard to breathe
I know you are on your own · no brothers and sisters in your home · you are the only one but you don't have to be the lonely one
like I was raised to be · like I was raised to be · like I was raised to be
you're my perfection my clean slate · my tabula rasa if you like · oh but birthday seems so long ago
some days are hanging by a thread · you wouldn't notice you were meant · to be an angel playing in the dirt despite of all the hurt
like I was raised to be · like I was meant to be
like I was made to be · like I was meant to be · like I was raised to be · like I was meant to be · like I was made to be · like I was raised to be
