Little    Earthquakes




~*Crucify*~

Every finger in the room is pointing at me
I wanna spit in their faces
Then I get afraid of what that could bring
I got a bowling ball in my stomach
I got a desert in my mouth
Figures that my COURAGE would choose to sell out now.

I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Just what GOD needs
One more victim

Why do we crucify ourselves
Every day I crucify myself
Nothing I do is good enough for you
Every day I crucify myself
my HEART is sick of being in chains

Got a kick for a dog beggin' for LOVE
I gotta have my suffering
So that I can have my cross
I know a Cat named Easter
He says, Will you ever learn?
You're just an empty cage girl if you kill the bird

I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Got enough GUILT to start
My own religion

Please be
Save me
I CRY

Looking for a savior in these dirty streets
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
I've been raising up my hands
Drive another nail in
Where are those angels
When you need them

Why do we crucify ourselves

Never going back again to
Crucify myself
Everyday

~*Happy Phantom*~ And if I die today I'll be the happy phantom And I'll go chasin the nuns out in the yard And I'll run naked through the streets without my mask on And I will never need umbrellas in the rain I'll wake up in strawberry fields everyday And these attrocities of school I can forgive The happy phantom has no right to bitch Oooohooo the time is getting closer Oooohooo time to be a ghost Oooohooo everyday we're getting closer the Sun is gettting dim will we pay for who we been? Yeah. So if I die today I'll be the happy phantom. And I'll go wearing my naughties like a jewel. They'll be my ticket to the universal opera. There's Judy Garland taking Buddha by the hand And then these seven little men get up to dance They say Confucious does his crossword with a pen. I'm still the angel to a girl who hates to sin. Or will I see you dear and wish I could comeback You found a girl that you could truly love again Will you still call for me when she falls asleep Or do we soon forget the things we cannot see? and if i die today..

~*China*~ China all the way to New York I can feel the distance getting close You're right next to me but I need an airplane I can feel the distance as you breathe Sometimes I think you want me to touch you How can I when you build the great wall around you In your eyes I saw a future together You just look away in the distance China decorates our table Funny how the cracks don't seem to show Pour the wine dear You say we'll take a holiday But we never can agree on where to go Sometimes I think you want to me to touch you How can I when you build the great wall around you In your eyes I saw a future together You just look away in the distance China all the way to New York Maybe you got lost in Mexico You're right next to me I think that you can hear me Funny how the distance learns to grow I can feel the distance getting close

~*Leather*~ Look I'm standing naked before you Don't you want more than my sex I can scream as loud as your last one but I can't claim innocence Oh god could it be the weather Oh god why am I here If love isn't forever and it's not the weather Hand me my leather I could just pretend that you love me The night would lose all sense of fear but why do I need you to love me when you can't hold what I hold dear I almost ran over an angel He had a nice big fat cigar "In a sense" he said "you're alone here So if you jump you best jump far Hand me my leather

~*Mother*~ Go now,out of the nest it's time Go now, Circus girl without a safety net Here here now don't cry You raised your hand for the assignment Tuck those ribbons under your helmet Be a good soldier First my left foot then my right behind the other Pantyhose running in the cold Mother the car is here Somebody leave the light on Green limousine for the redhead dancing dancing girl And when I dance for him Somebody leave the light on just in just in case I like the dancing I can remember where I come from I walked into your dream and now I've forgotten how to dream my own dream You are the clever one aren't you Brides in veils for you We told you all of our secrets All but one, and don't you even try The phone has been disconnected Dripping with blood and with time and with your advice Poison me against the moon Mother the car is here Somebody leave the light on Black chariot for the redhead dancing dancing girl He's gonna change my name Maybe you'll leave the light on just in just in case I like the dancing I can remember where I come from I escape into your escape into our very favorite fearscape It's across the sky and across my heart and I crossed my legs oh my god First my left foot then my right behind the other Breadcrumbs lost under the snow

~*Me and a Gun*~ 5 a.m., friday morning, thursday night, far from sleep I'm still up and driving, can't go home obviously So I'll just change direction cause they'll soon know where I live And I wanna live Got a full tank and some chips It was me and a gun and a man on my back And I sang "holy holy" as he buttoned down his pants You can laugh, It's kind of funny the things you think times like these like I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this Yes I wore a slinky red thing, does that mean I should spred for you, your friends, your father, Mr. Ed It was me and a gun and a man on my back but I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this And I know what this means, me and Jesus a few years back Used to hang and he said "It's your choice babe, just remember I don't think that you'll be back in 3 days time so you choose well" Tell me what's right, Is it my right to be on my stomach of Fred's Seville Me and a gun and a man on my back But I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this And do you know Carolina where the biscuits are soft and sweet These things go through you head when there's a man on your back and you're pushed flat on your stomach, it's not a classic cadillac Me and a gun and a man on my back But I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this I haven't seen Barbados so I must get out of this

~*Little Earthquakes*~ Yellow bird flying gets shot in the wing Good year for hunters and Christmas parties And I hate And I hate And I hate And I hate elevator music The way we fight The way I'm left here Silent Oh these little earthquakes Here we go again Oh these little earthquakes Doesn't take much to rip us into pieces We danced in graveyards with vampires till dawn We laughed in the faces of kings never afraid to burn And I hate And I hate And I hate And I hate disintegration Watching us wither Black winged roses that safely changed their color Oh these little earthquakes Here we go again Oh these little earthquakes Doesn't take much to rip us into pieces I can't reach you Give me life, give me pain Give me myself again Oh these little earthquakes Here we go again Oh these little earthquakes Doesn't take much to rip us into pieces
