woah,
you try and teach me
how to be mean
but I can't stop just trying to please
try and teach me
how to be mean
I can't stop just trying to please
ever more, ever more, ever more, ever more
you try and teach me
how to be mean
but I can't stop just seeing what I see
try and teach me
how to be mean
I can't stop just seeing what I see
ever more, ever more, ever more, ever more
teacher, I'm gonna beat you,
gonna take my hand
from beneath the desk
I don't wanna be the best
that was something you could never understand
I just did what I was told
you try and teach me
how to be mean
but I can't stop
just trying to please

Can't Not Say

Sometimes I ask you the wrong kind of question
sometimes I tire you out in the heat
sometimes I see only chaos in the wings
sometimes it's chaos that I need
but I can't not say
what I feel
when it's there in my head
and we wake up full of dreams
bodies torn by foreign beds
I know it might take a while to trust me
I know you're shy like a beast
I try to hold my tongue so you'll feel me
I tried to show you peace
but I can't not say
what I feel
when it's there in my head
and we wake up full of dreams
bodies torn by foreign beds
it feels like chaos in the wings
rub your toes in rosin
it feels like chaos in the wings
but the orchestra will count you in
(instrumental)
but I can't not say
what I feel
when it's there in my head
and we wake up full of dreams
bodies torn by foreign beds
it feels like chaos in the wings
rub your toes in rosin
it feels like chaos in the wings
but the orchestra will count you in

Spit

Well I wasn't gonna ask
but I guess you had to say
and it's kinder to shoot an old dog
on it's way
out the back door with his tail between his legs
don't look back, or you'll see what you left
come on baby, spit in my palm, oh spit in my heart
do you miss my little flaws?
No-one else would've said
but I guess you looked a bit closer than the rest
and do you miss the way I talk almost incessantly?
and I don't even care
when you're not listening
come on baby, spit in my palm, oh spit in my heart
I can't sleep at night
I'm too scared of knives
and all I see is you and me in paradise, in paradise
I can't sleep at night
I'm too scared of knives
and all I see is you and me in paradise, in paradise
and we're waiting for a hush in the auditorium
oh lower the lights and of course! you walk on
and I hate all of my dreams
for keeping you alive
it's dangerous oceans
you're seeing in my eyes
come on baby, spit in my palm, oh spit in my heart.

Kiss Me

Are you scared of all the things
we've started wanting to do?
Are you scared of all the things
I know about you?
I'm quite scared
when you kiss me like that
I know, I'm not mad
when you kiss me like that
I know, what I never had
I'll admit, I often seem at loss on a sea of words
I'll admit, I often choose the ones that fit the worst
I don't care
when you kiss me like that
I know, I'm not mad
when you kiss me like that
I know, what I never had
please don't bring me down,
I don't need that shit right now

how now, little cat made of cow?
what made you come here?
how now, little cat made of cow?
who were you in another life?
how now little cat of cow can you show me around your place?
what's your favourite sunny spot?
and what's the deal with your cute little face?
the question keeps coming
who's gonna hold me
who's gonna share the morning light with me?
I've got a good idea who it could be
but I'm not sure if he really likes me,
ohh,
only time will tell,
till then, I'll live my own little version of heaven and hell
how now little cat made of cow?
can I stroke your underneath?
how now little cat made of cow?
don't burn your whiskers a feelin the heat
let me dance the way you walk
can you show me another beat?
take me down on to all fours
what the fuck you trying to do to me?
the question keeps coming
who's gonna hold me
who's gonna share the morning light with me?
I've got a good idea who it could be
but I'm not sure if he really likes me,
ohh,
only time will tell,
till then, I'll live my own little version of heaven and hell

Othello, Bro!
04:10

Careful with your camera lense
you know I only see, you pulled the shutter
careful with the words you write
you know I only read between the lines
and tell me how you changed so fast
tell me how you gave me all your anger?
tell me, did I really break your heart,
or did you pull the strings backstage for longer?
Othello, Bro! I know how you feel,
when I was a girl, I swore I'd never be a fool
like you
but here I stand, corrected
Othello, Bro! It's just me and you,
no-one else I know would choose not to believe
the truth
so pure, yet so hard to swallow
Now I know I can't expect too much from you,
I fear you gave it all to her
now I know my love is true
I came too late, you gave it all to her
and you took years to hear my voice
but you know just how strong she likes her coffee
and you said I don't know myself,
but you don't take the time to call me baby
Othello, Bro! I know how you feel,
when I was a girl, I swore I'd never be a fool
like you
but here I stand, corrected
Othello, Bro! It's just me and you,
no-one else I know would choose not to believe
the truth
so pure, yet so hard to swallow
