The Brain 01:17
Oh, how wonderful: my final brain cell hasn't any air at all At least not that I can tell The brain is black and rotten A fruit that's been forgotten The brain The brain In dreams, I would crawl up the walls of my jail cell Now I only fall and my thoughts are all unwell The brain is black and rotten A fruit that's been forgotten The brain The brain

Mountain leveler Rubble rain across state lines Life disheveler Something that cannot be denied The island man is crazy The doomsday he's proclaiming will never come if we take to the streets Mountain leveler Sonic boombox rending sky Brain eraser Born under high-tension wires The island man is crazy The doomsday he's proclaiming will never come if we take to the streets

Doughnut and Doogan in a great big old wagon Stopping off to wander waterfalls Their love is rooted in the house where they cohabit Until they ventured out in search of awe Then one day they found a cave That took them to the moon Of a planet very far away That's where they make their home today Now Doughnut and Doogan are interstellar travelers Adventuring on planets near and far Their love is zooming across the universe As they hitch a ride upon a shooting star

Wrong Shadow 01:13
I got the wrong shadow following me home Thought it was mine this morning, now I just don't know If my shadow's long, why do I feel so small? Dragging the wrong shadow everywhere I go Weighing me down heavy like an old and rain-soaked coat If my shadow's long, why do I feel so small?

Black Tongue 01:07
Black tongue Trapped in the tomb of her mouth, in a hospital room When's it gonna pay out? This prize that I've heard about Yeah, when's it gonna pay out? Black tongue Of no more use, near death, and already mute When's it gonna pay out? This prize that I've heard about It's never gonna pay out

T-60 01:24
String it up with 10s and leave 'em on for years Never outta tune, never outta gears T-60 and me Born in the year of the child T-60 and me Hiding out in the wild The greatest rock machine the world has ever seen Goes zero to ten almost instantly T-60 and me Born in the year of the child T-60 and me Hiding out in the wild

Hell Wig 01:17
Hell Wig, hair on fire: What went wrong? Head big with desire like Adam Bomb When you run away, your flame grows You might want to stay We can have your ears lowered You'll look better this way Hell Wig, do you aspire to remain young? Burn till you expire and everything is gone? When you run away, your flame grows You might want to stay We can have your ears lowered You'll look better this way

I hear the Silverfish King singing in my ear His song debilitates me, bringing me to tears All alone now in the hall Waiting for a curtain call And when he's through, he'll crawl into you Goddamn the Silverfish King living in my ear His legs are never-ending, kicking up my fears All alone now in the hall Waiting for a curtain call And when he's through, he'll crawl into you

You can find him in the narrow Armed with compound bow and arrow Never trust a growing boy whose smile is something he employs While pissing gasoline upon his toys Ugly hair and bad apparel Drinking blood from basement barrel Never trust a growing boy whose smile is something he employs While pissing gasoline upon his toys
10.
Lovell the Pumpkin is coming home soon We'll fill up the corncob that he likes to chew With Carter Hall and Cake Box, too Remember him when he is gone Lovell the Pumpkin is hollow and used Empty of eyes and prefers solitude We'll give him a room till he does something rude And accept that he never was ours
