The Charles Mansion Pt. I

Wckr Spgt The Charles Mansion Pt. I Lyrics
1.Everything's Scary

Girl:'Oooooh..... I'm scared'


2.Goodbye, Ox

Girl:You made me come here, didn't you?
And with your departure
I'll miss you
Because you're leaving me
My friend / The Ox
I'll miss your horns
I'll miss you, Ox
You've been so dear
To lead me here
So now I fear
You're leaving here
You're not a deer
I'll miss you, dear Ox
I'll miss the long, long talks
And from my ears to my socks
with my mouth near the top
I say: Goodbye, Ox!
Ox: OXOX


3.House On The Hillside, Stranger

Look at the house on the hillside, stranger
Is this an old ghost
Look at the mouse
Is he eating toast?
Look at the man
I don't know him
Look at the house
Is it really glowing?
Who are you, stranger
Are you a man or a mouse?
Do you come from the house on the hillside, stranger?
Was Jesus really born in a dirty manger?
I think this time I need a manager.


4.In Retrospect

She's got a Ox chasing her
She's near the mansion
Her boyfriend would object
But he is a jerk.
Other girl's boyfriends are always jerks.
Who does he think he is, anyway?
The Ox is far more important than he is...
But anyway, in retrospect,
The girl's in for a big surprise
and the Ox is too.


5.No Sign Of Danger

Florence of Arabia is quite content
No danger in Arcadia; no sign of trouble.
In fact, in context, Florence lives in a bubble.
But Florence, she is satisfied
with what is happening in her life
She believes in happiness inside
No sign of Danger
But Florence keeps her eyes closed tight
and turns her eyes out in the night.
She doesn't understand when the Ox comes into sight
No Sign of Danger
Florence don't be a stranger
There's no sign of danger.


6.No Sign Of Danger Part Ii

Here I am and I feel safe
The Oxen does not bother me
The house is not far off
And it looks pleasant
No Sign of Danger here, neither.


7.Ox Chase

Just an Ox for walks
No dogs
Now the chase begins
I spin
you win
I lose
But you
Purr-Sue
It's an Ox Chase


8.Rude Awakening

Let's bring up the family in our own way.
We can make the rules ourselves.
We need no Oxen, sheep or lamb
unless we want them (ham).

We can make the rules ourselves.
Girl: 'Quickly wake up, Dr. Rude.
It seems I need another food to satisfy my hunger.
My quest for knowledge must be quenched.'
Rude: 'What's going on? My neck is wrenched
You woke me so fast.
You whore-monger, hustler or fool
I've pulled in my back a muscle or two.'
Girl: 'We're sorry, Dr. Rude, but it's dinnertime
Let's eat some food.
The kind you keep up on your shelves.
We can make the rules ourselves.'


9.Should I Go In?

She remembers her childhood
She remembers the Ox
With teddy bears and underwears
and fourteen pairs of jeans
But she's all grown up now
Decisions of her own
Should she open the door
or should she find another Ox?
It's all up to her now
she owns her own fate
She lost her virginity when she was just eight.
Her childhood is fading fast
The door is open wide.
She lifts her foot up
One by one
Should she go inside?


10.The Charles Mansion

You can stay at the Charles Mansion
when there is no room at the Inn.
A feast of friends, the Best of Tension
You've lost your virginity again.
Our family welcomes you inside
Please come join us / do not hide.
You and all your friends are welcome
Please come in.
Here is where you find yourself.
You're intent on joining
She's a whore / you're the guest.
Become a part of the family feast.
You belong.
First, try to sit if you have no fear.
Patty Hearst wouldn't like it if she were here.


11.The Girl (Still Running)

I'm being chased by an Ox
I'm out of his sight
But I've got to keep running.
When opportunity knocks
don't put up a fight
Take it...
He's close behind but he'll never catch me
(She's the girl)
I'm the one that he was watching
(Still Running)
I'm moving fast but I'm sitting still
The more I try, the less I seem to move.
I've got to get away from the Ox
(She's the girl)
I'm the girl inside the box
(Still Running)
I'm moving fast but I'm sitting still.
I'm running in place. I'm still running.


12.Uninvited Guest At A Dinner Party

Who are You?
Why are you here?
You were not invited
Your methods are unclear.
Why do you interrupt our dinner?
Can't you see that you're in danger?
Mouse can run but rats smell bad
We want to eat but you make us mad.
You're an uninvited guest (This could be a test)
At our dinner party (Come and join the family).
Come on in, look around.
What are you doing on this side of town?
Check out the rooms, smell the fumes
Rats are in their parlor gowns.
