food is all that you need
you can go days on food alone
food is all that you see
hey now don't you got that awfully lookin'
spaceman, how'd you get my halo bumpin'
mama, let me get my hands upon it.
mail is all that you need
you can spend days on end sifting thru magazines
the sun is warm
the rain is fine
this room is good

working with a hermit for rice
its worthless advice
to be dancing on the sandstorm
it does its best to soil the veins
but its cleansed by the flames
that operate the musket
the tvbox is working it right
its the perfect device to cultivate the onslaught
he's my old friend with a cast iron mask on.
in the yellow house obscured by the trees that hangs beside me
in the morning through the night time
inside it is the timid arch duke
he wants nothing to do with the plans to steal the children
the tv box is speaking his name so he charters a plane
and meets up with uncle albert
smooth operator
are you worthy for a boy on the lake?
clean talkin' baby
you offer more then I could ever buy
down by the levi
I was ravaged by a ghost of the shell

baby's gone away
it's another kinda day
think you had a perfect chance?
it's gonna pass
into another day
don't you tell
were you've been
you've been riding on a mantle
and now he wants to come in
lover's gone away
it's a special kinda day
think you have it all?
that too will fall
into another day
can't you tell
where I've been
I've searching the answer
and now I want to find kin
don't you say
where you've seen
you were speaking with a mantra
and now you've worn your rock thin

every night I think about ice cream
and every day I go away for a while.
but every night I dream about Christmas
and every day I go away
and every day I think "Oh, how are they gonna get me when I'm 15 miles away."
how are they gonna find me?

child of grace
what's your name
where you been?
would you speak to me?
"down the road
by the creek
there's a voodoo man selling magazines."
all the world
watching now
what are you gonna do?
one-eyed girl
sold me a rug
she told me her name
and all I was
"stay in bed and grow your hair."
well, the room stopped speaking to me like a jamboree
it seems to be
vagabond
crooked thief
jealous girl
come to me with all you wish to be

It came down over a raging field
shedding lights in the rain
saying things
"are you alive
or are you a dreamer?"
you walk in circles
all I can offer is an apple for peace
you look like a child to me
well, you know he's on trial
he purposefully walks with a cane
he speaks real well and
he talks real nice
no one seems to notice that's its Jesus in drag
baby's all riled
she's in love with the bread
we talk for awhile
but she only repeats what I've said
you're telling me
you're the source of all creation
while I'm singing a song to mother mother ocean
that's fine
you're gonna do what you want
corporal divine
he's standing tall and walking in rhyme
the witching hour is upon us now
no one needs to know that he's not jesus in drag

I met God
he was the kind of man you could talk to
he said every word the same
he said everyone is plain
he said "Everything is lame."
I met God
she was the kind of girl who would speak to you
she warned a killer's in heaven
I walk out as you walk in
"It has always been like and always will."
when the rocket is approaching the moon
you will stand there and you will feel in tune
with the gods of the ocean word
when you're rolling with the temple queen
she will look to you for incites into her dreams
and all you know and all you do
while my mama keeps on seeking the cure
she will look at her boy and say
"It looks like you and it smells like you, it must be you."
but indeed its not.
and then the morning comes
and we all feel fooled.
oh well.
but then it turns to night
and I will pray beneath the chapel bell.
on the foreign floors of time
I find
we all just think we want the answer
