When I was a boy I lived on Poplar St
Just a little child with plasters on my knees
Watching all the world from high up in the trees
I saw Mrs Moore sleep around with Mr Keats

I feel like a new man
Red flowers in my bed
Breathe straight through the crisp air
Dead flowers in the sand

I am a true romantic
Free falling love addict
I am a true romantic
Free falling love addict, yeah

Mama always called that woman prosti-tits
For wearing lower cuts than most and red lipstick
One night Mrs Moore she made her eyes at me
Pulled me through her door and stuck her teeth in deep

I feel like a new man
Red flowers in my bed
Breathe straight through the crisp air
Dead flowers in the sand

I am a true romantic
Free falling love addict
I am a true romantic
Free falling love addict, yeah

And all your days are gone
Sitting on the floor
In your underwear
Begging me for more

And all your days are gone
Sitting on the floor
In my underwear
Begging you for more

I feel like a new man
Red flowers in my bed
Breathe straight through the crisp air
Dead flowers in the sand

I am a true romantic
Free falling love addict
I am a true romantic
Free falling love addict, yeah

Just another boy who lived on Poplar St
Tangled up in lust and her exotic needs
One night Mrs Moore she called collect to me
I don't love you anymore she said and ceased to be

Wind me up
Put me down
Start me off and watch me go
I'll be runnin' circles around you sooner than you know
A little off center
And I'm out of tune
Just kickin' this can along the avenue
But I'm alright

'Cause it's easy once you know how it's done
You can't stop now
It's already begun
You feel it runnin' through your bones
And you jerk it out
And you jerk it out

Shut up
Hush your mouth
Can't you hear you talk too loud
No can't hear nothin' 'cause I got my head up in the clouds
I bite off anything that I can chew
I'm chasing cars up and down the avenue
But that's okay

'Cause it's easy once you know how it's done
You can't stop now
It's already begun
You feel it runnin' through your bones
And you jerk it out

'Cause it's easy once you know how it's done
You can't stop now
It's already begun
You feel it runnin' through your bones
And you jerk it out
And you jerk it out

And you jerk it out
And you jerk it out
Oh baby don't you know
You really gotta jerk it out
When you jerk it out
Oh baby don't you know
You really gotta jerk it out
When you jerk it out
Oh baby don't you know you
You really gotta jerk it out

I'm just here to hold your hand when you die
And to show you around imaginary places
Put money lumps in my bloody stump
And I will have a smile that's a perfect circle
Die in your sleep with the sky at your feet
I'll shoot you when you're happy, on the day that you will find peace

How do you do? I don't know, I'm okay
Every person I know is a secret service agent
'Cause I'm accused of lewd conduct
Stole the heart of a prude prom slut
And they got the warrant for my arrest to put me in
The loony bin, the funny farm, because of what I did

But I'm just here to hold your hand when you die
There is not a single person who can do it better
No needle skippin' in my ecosystem
But in the audience may be an evil Christian
HMO how I hate him so
But they charge me for a halo
But I'm on a scavenger hunt for a lavender chunk
Of the sky, maybe I'll replace it with a mud-pie
I play dead songs on the silk screen
Buy my shirt it is a killed dream
It is known to lead the way to the stairwell
To God's administrative office and a final farewell

I'm just here to hold your hand when you die
And to give your assault rifle a banana clip
Glow in the dark when I stroll in the park
Givin everybody informative pamphlets!
No sign of life for as far as I can see
Everybody's just charred meat up in the car seat
Eat shit and die to the secret spy
'Cause I have a funny feeling that I'm being watched
24-hour surveillance
Money or power are ailments
But I send the medical supplies and the shipping
And the handling is way too much, 'cause I'm from the Afterlife

I'm just here to hold your hand when you die
It's like I put a cough drop right upon your soft spot
Make Martian clothes out of your garden hose
Turn into a deadly gas blowin' through the air duct
She's not in love but I thought that she was
She doesn't love me 'cause I don't have the right haircut
I misunderstood, I should fix under the hood
But I will not apologize for anything that I've said
My name is Mr. Busdriver, this is the producer Paris
We are not embarrassed to admit that we will perish in
A pit of our own imaginary PLACE!

Kids, if you want to piss off your parents
Show interest in the arts

Kids, if you really want to piss off your parents
Buy real estate
In an imaginary place
Oh, yes

Okay, okay, alright
Yeah
Now, move

I gotta do my shout outs now
Peace to:

I'm just here to hold your hand when you die
Paris and Daddy Kev, they'll also be there too
Just here to hold your hand when you die
Of Mexican Descent and Mums The Word will help you
Just here to hold your hand when you die
Freestyle Fellowship and Abstract Rude will help you
I'm just here to hold your hand when you die
Chillin' Villain Empire and Hip Hop Kclan too

I'm just here to hold your hand to die
I'm just here to hold your hand when you
Just here to hold your hand when you die

Crazy
I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new

Worry
Why do I let myself worry?
Wondering what in the world did I do?
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying
And crazy for crying

And I'm crazy for loving you
Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying
And crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you

Get it before
It goes to waste
Lick on my knife
And honour the taste
Taking my time
Running in place
Leaving the house
Was a mistake

I don't know if I dare
I don't know if I care
You are all I want
I am all I know

Broken bones
Broken bones
Broken bones
Stand alone
Broken bones
Broken bones
Broken bones
Stay alone

If I see only what I believe
Reality's bound
By what I conceieve
Pickin' the scab
And watching it bleed
Behind the wall
Where I can't be seen

I don't know if I dare
I don't know if I care
You are all I want
I am all I know

Broken bones
Broken bones
Broken bones
Stay alone
Broken bones
Broken bones
Broken bones
Stay alone

Some people call me the space cowboy yeah
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
'Cause I speak of the pompitous of love

People talk about me, baby
Say I'm doin' you wrong, doin' you wrong
Well don't you worry baby, don't worry
'Cause I'm right here at home

'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
Playin' my music in the sun
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a mid-night toker
I get my lovin' on the run
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

You're the cutest thing that I ever did see
I really love your peaches
Want to shake your tree
Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time
Ooh wee baby, I sure show you a good time

'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
Playin' my music in the sun
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a mid-night toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one

People keep talkin' about me baby
Say I'm doin' you wrong
Well don't you worry, don't worry, no don't worry mama
'Cause I'm right here at home
You're the cutest thing I ever did see
Really love your peaches want to shake your tree
Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time
Come on baby now, I'll show you a good time

A pain-seekin', strange feelin's takin' over me
Please don't judge me
I am acting, acting differently
And you know me, you know
Know what's inside

Please always love me
Even though I lo-, I lo-, I lost my mind
Wake up, survive
I will get better, yeah, one day at a time
Something ain't right, I lost my mind
But I could get better, one day at a time

I'm afraid I'll fail ya, but
Damn I always try
Even if I lose some days, I'll never lose my fight
And you know me, you know
Know what's inside

Please always love me
Even though I lo-, I lo-, I lost my mind
Wake up, survive
I will get better, yeah, one day at a time
Something ain't right, I lost my mind
But I could get better, one day at a time

This is my sad soul
Rocking the down fall
Rocking the beat flow
This is my, this is my sad soul
Yeah, this is my sad soul

Please always love me
Even though I lo-, I lo-, I lost my mind
Wake up, survive
I will get better, yeah, one day at a time
Something ain't right, I lost my mind
But I could get better, one day at a time
I lo-, I lost my mind
Wake up, survive
I will get better, yeah, one day at a time
Something ain't right, I lost my mind
But I could get better, one day at a time

I found God on the corner of First in Amistad
Where the west was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigarette
I said where you been?
He said, ask anything

Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Spent by the telephone
That never rang
And all I needed was a call
That never came
From the corner of First and Amistad

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing her
The only one who's ever known
Who I am, who I'm not, and who I wanna be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

Early morning
City breaks
I've been calling
For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never send me no letters
You got some kind of nerve
Taking all I want

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Where were you? Where were you?

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

Why'd you have to wait
To find me?
To find me?

Tired as fuck
The Greedy Palace has been keeping me up
See now then
Can't and won't you will and can

Tired as fuck
It's so hard to wonder why when you don't feel worthy of
Being aloft, wherever wind may blow
You don't let your balloon touch the ground
Or get so high that you can't let go

May and June this lake of gin
I only had to tilt the paddle toward my chin
May and June
The Sweet Sea
It's easy when you don't know what you're doing

Tired as fuck
I want to stop so much I almost don't want to stop
See now then
Can't and won't
Will and can

Tired as fuck
The Greedy Palace has been keeping me up
Up high and aloft, wherever winds may blow
Don't let your balloon touch the ground
Or get so high that you can't let go

May and June by the lake of gin
I only had to tilt the paddle toward my chin
May and June by the Sweet Sea
It's so easy when you don't know how easy

May and June, May and June
May and June, May and June, May and June

Tired as fuck
Tired as fuck
Tired as fuck
