1.Oh My Fool Life
And so I came to this world
And then I blew it
I bought a puzzle to play, I couldn't do it
I told a joke to my friends, but they all knew it
I tried to laugh my way out, but they saw through it
I think I'll bury my head and just get through it
On my fool life
I saw a robbery once, I was a witness
Somebody called the police, they said who did this
And I described them so well, in about a minute
The they looked at me then, you'd think I did it
On my fool life
I had a friend in distress, he was a good friend
It wasn't happening between him and his girlfriend
I tried to sort it all out and talk to her friend
But then I got to her house I found that I'd no friends
Oh my fool life
I got a linguaphone course, so I could learn French
I went to Calais one day, so I could speak French
I got confused at the dock in the confusion
'Welkom meneer rechts rijden in Hoek van Holland'
Oh my fool life
2.Domestique
Afternoon
Things to do
Got to clean
What is seen
In my house
In my home
Squeaky clean
Disinfect
Every thing
What is that？
Run around
Everything
Underneath
Breeding now
See them breed
I can't see
I can't see
Disinfect
Everything
Look at that!
It's in the kitchen
It's in the water
My kids will get it
Tinythings
Colonies
In the bleach
I can't stop
I can't stop
Grow and grow
Taking over
Got to win
Got to clean
Got to kill!
It's in the kitchen
It's in the water
My kids will get it
My kids will get it
It's in the kitchen
It's in the oven
It's in the water
It's so increasing
It's in the washtub
It's in the U-bend
It's in the bathroom
My kids will get it
3.Mall Monarchy
His wife's in
Her nightdress
As Ethan
Grabs his chest
You were the brightest of them all
When you designed the shopping mall
That keeps us clothed and entertained
From Baltimore to Stephen's Green
Born hungry
Got wounded
Iwo Sima
In fourty five
You were the brightest of them all
When you designed the shopping mall
That keeps us clothed and entertained
From Baltimore to Golders Green
And so we called you here today
To send our monarchy on his way
Where history and bunk are blessed
And with the edsel laid to rest
In a black car
White roses
And the tombstones
They're all the same
And so we called you here today
To send our monarchy on his way
Where history and bunk are blessed
And with the edsel laid to rest
4.Rapejacket
Tom's in the bathroom
Trying to end his life
Sue's in the kitchen
Hiding all her knifes
She always says
It's the end of it that counts
Don't try so hard
To explain the way you feel
Try it on
You wear it easy
Late in the day
Tom can still be found
Listening to music
The Velvet Underground
He thinks it's a shame
That he can't be like Lou, or someone good,
With the power to explain
How he fights for control
Try it on
You wear it easy
All through the night
Tom's been walking 'round
Found someone's jacket
Lying on the ground
Try it on
You wear it easy
Rapejacket
5.I Am John's Brain
Lover of the world
Separates the dark
Fount of all your fear
How'd you get us here
Comfort in the night
Engineer of flight
Believe that you are right
Twinkle-toes tonight
More than a machine
Sometimes you are mean
Let me go to sleep
Through the eyelids peep
Separates the girls
Scans the road ahead
Inventing enemies
Dying by degrees
Make the children weep
Millions are asleep
Elevated creep
Feel addiction seep
Harbour of the dead
Nestled in your head
Remembers what she said
Again again again
6.Jean Could Be Wrong
'Oh no!' says Jean
The world hurt me
They tied
her down
They nailed
Her feet
To the pain in her song
But then Jean could be wrong
'I've proof!' she says
From what I read
She says
She knows
And draws
Her scars
By some other hand
But then Jean could be wrong
7.Basketcas
Girl had a baby and she gave it to the world
World didn't want to take the baby from the girl
So in the reeds beside the river there she lay
Gave it to the river let the water show the way
Time
Will never destroy her heart
