1.Evil Urges
Honey it's rotten and they got us so scared
Thinking there's some evil waiting under vain
Whooo! I made a nasty decision
To love whoever I want just-a whenever I can
Things they're saying--
Evil urges baby; they're just part of the human way
It ain't evil baby, if ya ain't hurting anybody
Evil urges baby; they're now part of the human way
It ain't evil baby, if ya ain't hurting anybody, anybody
It's all the same, we're tired of waiting come on then
And dedicate your love to any woman or man
No racial boundary lines, no social subdivisions
If you want it, you can
Well we're not saying, I'm not saying that I want it someday
Well we're not saying, I'm not saying that I want it somehow
Well we're not saying, I'm not saying that I want it someday
Woo, I'm ready it for now (I'm ready for it now!)
Things they're saying--
Evil urges baby; they're part of the human way
It ain't evil baby, if ya ain't hurting anybody
Evil urges baby come on; bad is all the same come on now
It ain't evil baby, if it ain't hurting anybody anybody
Evil urges baby, they're part of the human way
It ain't evil baby, 'cause ya ain't hurting anybody anybody
2.Highly Suspicious
Wasting time home alone dotting your 'i's'.
Peanut butter pudding surprise!
Ain't nobody care what's going on in your mind-
but they got they eye on your prize...
I'm highly suspicious of you.
I'm highly suspicious of you.
Now daddy's got you home alone- solving your crimes.
Peanut butter pudding surprise!
Ain't no jokin', smokin', strokin', tapping your lines-
Peanut butter pudding surprise!
I'm highly suspicious of you.
I'm highly suspicious of you.
Wasting all your time on drama, could be solving real crime
waste away your mind too...
I'm highly suspicious of you.

4.Gideon
Gideon, what have you told us at all?
Make a sound, come down off the wall.
Religion- should appeal to the hearts of the young
Who are you? What have you become?
You animal. Come on
What does this remind you of?
Truly, truly we have become
Hated and feared for something that we don't want
Listen, listen. Most of us believe that this is wrong
You animal. Come on
What does this remind you of?
What does this remind you of?
Animal. Come on.
5.Where To Begin
Up and up and up I climb
When I came up I was so far behind
My head takes a lickin'
But my heart keeps on tickin
Just the same
Always startin' over but somehow
I always know where to begin
Round and round and round I ride
And just when I looked I hadn't even began
To feel the effect
A cool, dark fever
On the brain
That feelin' takin' over
Like a holy rollercoaster to the grave
How can I await the day
The last the night I'm here to see
How do I await the mother lode
It's the art of feelin naked in your clothes
Again, again, again I tried
That's how I knew I would never be denied
That face in the mirror
Who could it be, it was my own
That cool, dark figure
That's when I knew I was alone
On and on and on I drive
when will I know I've finally arrived
So far I've gone, so far to go
It never ends
Always startin over but somehow
I always know where to begin
Always startin over but somehow
I always know where to begin
Always startin over but somehow
I always know where to beg
6.Librarian
Walk across the courtyard,
Towards the library.
I can hear the insects buzz on the leaves, 'neath my feet.
Ramble up the stairwell,
To the hall of books.
Since we got the interweb these hardly get used.
Duck into the men's room,
Combing through my hair.
When God gave us mirrors he had no idea.
Looking for a lesson
In the periodicals,
There I spy you listening to the AM radio.
Karen of the Carpenters,
Singing in the rain.
Another lovely victim of the mirror's evil way.
It's not like you're not trying,
With a pencil in your hair,
To defy the beauty the good Lord put in there
Simple little bookworm,
Buried underneath
Is the sexiest librarian.
Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me.
So I watch you through the bookcase,
Imagining a scene.
You and I had dinner,
Spending time when you sleep.
And what can I say to you,
Lying there in bed.
These words were the kiss I would play in your head.
What is it inside our heads
That makes us do the opposite,
Makes us do the opposite
Of what's right for us.
'Cause everything be great,
And everything be good,
And everybody gave,
Like everybody could.
Sweetest little bookworm,
Hidden underneath
Is the sexiest librarian.
Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me.
Take off those glasses, and let down your hair for me.
Simple little beauty,
Heaven in your breath.
Simplest of pleasures
The world at its best.
7.Phone Went West

8.Dondante
In a dream I saw you walkin'
Like a kid alive and talking
That was you
In the classroom you were teachin'
On the streets you were policing
That was you
To the one I now know most
I will tell them of your ghost
Like a thing that never, ever was
And all that ever mattered
Will some day turn back to batter
Like a joke
Behind thin walls you hid your feelings
Takes four legs to make a ceilin' like a thing
In a dream I saw you walkin'
With your friends alive and talking
That was you
Well I saw it in your movement
And even though you never knew it
Well, I knew just how sweet it could be
If you'd never left these streets
