3.Mystery Girl

Lyricist:Brian Chase, Karen Lee Orzolek, Nicholas Joseph Zinner

It was the struggle of the century and all the grown men came to
see
The girl who could tame the tiger, yeah, yeah
The heart of the Southern lovebirds, they found her under the
sea
She said she came from cell block 3

The girl hit hot like a barracuda baby
She floated on air like a crest of a wave, she was a primal
institution
She was a danger to herself, yeah mad lovin' by the cold hearted
Take a deep breath, babe 'cause we've just started

Mystery girl, mystery girl
Keep on fakin' your mystery world
'Cause, the mystery boys will be your toys, yeah
The mystery boys will be your toys

Not a day goes by I wanna dissappear
Into her a eyes, a mother pearl
And my head feels dead from all this useless fighting
But my heart ain't dead 'cause it keeps on lovin'

The girl hit hot like a barracuda baby
She floated on air like a crest of a wave, she was a primal
institution
She was a danger to herself, yeah mad lovin' by the cold hearted
Take a deep breath, babe 'cause we've just started

Mystery girl, mystery girl, yeah
Keep on fakin' that mystery world
'Cause the mystery boys will be your toys, yeah
The mystery boys will be your toys, yeah

The mystery boys will be your toys, yeah
The mystery boys will be your toys
They'll be your toys, yeah girls
They'll be your toys, alright


4.Art Star

I've been working on a piece
That speaks of sex and desperation
I've been screwing on the tracks
Of abandoned train stations
One, two, three, four

I got a dealer in Tokyo
I got a rep in Paris
I got an agent in Colone
Shit, I got a gallery in New York
It's a mad house, this modern life
It's a mad house, my faithless bride

5.Miles Away

Lyricist:Brian Chase, Karen Lee Orzolek, Nicholas Joseph Zinner

As the cars go by
Under the sun
Like an enemy, you wonder
You wonder, you wonder

As a spider comes
And looks at you
Like an enemy, you wonder
You wonder, you wonder

Well, miles, miles away
She's hurt fewer people in a better world
Miles, miles away
Dressed again in all her wonder

Well, you're more
Beautiful than ever
Looking in the car's
Rear view mirror

Floor is hard uncomforted
By the second time she wondered
She hungers, she hungers
Like a killers wife

Oh, as the cars go by
As the cars go by
Oh, as the cars go by
Yeah, as the cars go by

Miles, miles away
She's hurt fewer people in a better world
Miles, miles away
Dressed again in all her wonder

Well, you're more
Beautiful than ever
Looking in the car's
Rear view mirror

Well, you're more
Beautiful than ever
Miles, miles, miles, miles away
Miles, miles away

I may be dead honey but I was left with my eyes
And underneath sugar well, I've been stung by your lies

And my heart baby, is cold and blue
We're two of a kind baby, we're me and you
It's our time sweet babe to break on through

It's the year to hated, so glad that we made it
'Cause all the kids in the street, whisper sounds that sweet
The stars under their feet, well, it's the year to be hated

Our time, our time, our time, to be hated
Alright, to be hated, oh, oh, oh

Our time, our time, our time, to be hated
Alright, well, it's the year to be hated

So glad that we made it
'Cause all the kids in the street, whisper sounds that sweet
The stars under their feet, well, it's the year to be hated

8.The Sweets

Lyricist:Brian Chase, Karen O, Nick Zinner

Green shadow, water weight all over, all over me
The end will shelter me away from me
Can we meet again, meet and meet, and meet, and meet again?
Can ya fill the can if ya can't fill me?

Who ya following? Who ya starting to move like?
Who ya falling for? Who ya falling for? Whose lies?
Who ya following, who ya falling for?
This sound's on your side

Secret blue, purple, pink and green right over it
Oh, hold on 'cause the coldest hasn't fought yet
Well, if we meet again, meet and meet, and meet, and meet again
Can ya catch the can if you can't fill it?

How will you want something to hit
With spinning again and again, and again, and again?

What's your crime? What's your crime?
Well, how will you want? How will she sit?
What's spinning again and again, and again, and again
What's your crime?

What's your, what's your, what's your, what's your
What's your crime, crime, crime?
What's your, what's your, what's your, what's your
What's your crime?


9.Sealings

Lyricist:Brian Chase, Karen Orzolek, Nick Zinner

Checked my glove for the cash
It was all for the one, for the one
Slept my baby through it all
Checked my door for the crash
Shut like the first, you shut the last
I won, I won, slept my baby through it all

I want out, I want out
I want out, I want out

Drop, drop down a floor
Shoot, shoot out your mouth
These days are scraped from ceilings
Drop, drop down a floor
Shoot, shoot out your mouth
These days are scraped from ceilings

I want out, well, I want

Checked my glove for the cash
It was all for the one, for the one
Slept my baby through it all
Checked my door for the crash
Shut like the first, you shut the last
I won, I won, slept my baby through it all

Love is in the metal
Love is in the metal
Love is in the metal
Love is in the ooh
Who loves who?

Love is in the metal
Love is in the metal
Love is in the metal
Love is in the ooh
Who loves who?

Drop, drop down a floor
Shoot, shoot out your mouth
These days are scraped from ceilings
Drop, drop down a floor
Shoot, shoot out your mouth
These days are scraped from ceilings

I want out, well I want, I want

Left my love for the cash
Left my love for the cash
Left my love for the cash
Only one can pass

Left my love for the cash
Left my love for the cash
Only one can pass
Left my love for the cash


10.Let Me Know

Lyricist:Brian Chase, Karen Orzolek, Nicholas Zinner

I couldn't see, I couldn't hear
It shut me off when you were near
Like a cloud a dusty mirror
It disappears, you disappear

All the sudden, all alone
I'm calling out, I'm calling

Love's gonna let me know
Like the day you took me home
We counted every minute left to go
My love's gonna let you know

Ooh, wah
Ooh, wah
Ooh, wah

Time without you drags me down
It all feels right with you around
It all feels right with you around
Like the night we hit the ground

And all the lightning sends a chill
Can't forget about you still
All the sudden, all alone
I'm calling out, I'm calling

Love's gonna let me know
Like the day you took me home
We counted every minute left to go
My love's gonna let you know

I'm calling, Love's gonna let me know
Like the day you took me home
We counted every minute left to go
My love's gonna let you know

I'm calling out, I'm calling
I'm calling out, I'm calling
I'm calling out, I'm calling
I'm calling out, I'm calling
I'm calling out, calling out


11.Diamond Sea

Lyricist:Kim Gordon, Thurston Moore, Lee Renaldo, Steve Shelley

Time takes its crazy toll
And how does your mirror grow
You better watch yourself when you jump into it
'Cause the mirror's gonna steal your soul

I wonder how it came to be my friend
That someone just like you has come again
You'll never, never know how close you came
Until you fall in love with the diamond rain

Throw all his trash away
Look out he's here to stay
Your mirror's gonna crack when he breaks into it
And you'll never never be the same

Look into his eyes and you can see
Why all the little kids are dressed in dreams
I wonder how he's gonna make it back
When he sees that you just know it's make-belief

Blood crystallized as sand
And now I hope you'll understand
You reflected into his looking glass soul
And now the mirror is your only friend

Look into his eyes and you will see
That men are not alone on the diamond sea
Sail into the heart of the lonely storm
And tell her that you'll love her eternally


12.Poor Song

Lyricist:Brian Chase, Karen Lee Orzolek, Nicholas Joseph Zinner

Baby, I'm afraid of a lot of things
But I ain't scared of lovin' you
Baby, I know you're afraid of a lot of things
But don't be scared of love

'Cause people will say all kinds of things
That don't mean a damn to me
'Cause all I see
Is what's in front of me
That's you

Well, I've been dragged
All over the place
I've taken hits
Time just don't erase
And baby I can see

You've been fucked with too
But that don't mean
Your loving days are through
'Cause people will say

All kinds of things
That don't mean a damn to me
'Cause all I see is what's in front of me
That's you

Well, I may be just a fool
But I know you're just as cool
And cool kids
They belong together


13.Miles Away (John Peel Session)

Lyricist:Brian Chase, Karen Lee Orzolek, Nicholas Joseph Zinner

As the cars go by under the sun like an enemy
You wonder, you wonder, you wonder
As a spider comes and looks at you like an enemy
You wonder, you wonder, you wonder

Well miles, miles away
She's hurt few people in a better world
Miles, miles away
Dressed again in the hot water

Well you're more beautiful than ever
Looking in the car's rear view mirror

The floor is hard uncomforted by the second time
She wondered, she hungers, she hungers like a killers wife
Oh as the cars go by, as the cars go by
As the cars go by, yeah as the cars go by

Miles, miles away
She's hurt few people in a better world
Miles, miles away
Dressed again in the hot water

Well you're more beautiful than ever
Looking in the car's rear view mirror
Well you're more beautiful than ever
Miles, miles, miles, miles away
Miles, miles away
