Bee Thousand

Give me the cost of the albatross
And wear it 'round your neck for size
Don't let it get you down
I'm looking inside your house
And oh and it smells so nice
Your house always looks so nice

Maybe they're twice as high laughing
Maybe the time is right you know
Promise me not to leave
I'm looking inside your brain
And christ, it's a cluttered mess
I love you, i must confess

La la la la la...

(i don't know)

Mincer ray don't worry
If the road's a little worn
It's a cold and filthy cavern
That we're traveling on

Richer day assured me
Of the weak-link mending plan
Danger's always there to follow
Just do the best you can
And a light shines down...

Mincer ray don't worry
If the road's a little worn
It's a cold and filthy cavern
That we're traveling on
And a light shines down
And a light shines down..

I am a scientist - i seek to understand me
All of my impurities and evils yet unknown
I am a journalist - i write to you to show you
I am an incurable
And nothing else behaves like me

And i know what's right
But i'm losing sight
Of the clues for which i search and choose
To abuse
To just unlock my mind
Yeah, and just unlock my mind

I am a pharmacist
Prescriptions i will fill you
Potions, pills and medicines
To ease your painful lives
I am a lost soul
I shoot myself with rock & roll
The hole i dig is bottomless
But nothing else can set me free

And i know what's right
But i'm losing sight
Of the clues for which i search and choose
To abuse
To just unlock my mind
Yeah, and just unlock my mind

I am a scientist - i seek to understand me
I am an incurable and nothing else behaves like me

Everything is right
Everything works out right
Everything fades from sight
Because that's alright with me

Jimmy was a fly
Got sucked in by an actor
And wrapped in a cocoon
And skin-tight buffoonery
Now here's the plan...

Scene from ester's day
Of running backward courses
With a horse of different forces
Lying wings of films
That seem to never see the screen
Couldn't bear to face their dreams

Down and out
Couldn't bear to shout it out

Brought up on the road
A sparkle shiny diner
Is the home for wayward minor
In a flying car that seems
To whisper in an ear
Let's just go get out of here

Down and out
Couldn't bear to shout it out

Down and out
Couldn't bear to shout it out...

In the summer that you came
There was something eating everyone
And the sunshine fund was low
We couldn't greet you
With a simple hello

And the watchers of the flood
Were busy in their chambers
Making sure there was new blood
To sustain their dying veins

But i believed you
No need for further questioning
I'm gonna leave with you
You can teach me all you know
Which way will we go now
On our trip to taller windows
I really don't know now
I really don't know

In the winter that you left
There was business as usual
With the same old fears and frustrations
But the word got out
It was really such a pity

But the judges and the saints
And the textbook committee
Decided you should be left out
Not even mentioned

But i believed you
No need for further questioning
I'm gonna leave with you
You can teach me all you know
Which way will we go now
On our trip to taller windows
I really don't know now
I really don't know

If i waited for you
To signify the moves that i should make
I'll be on the take
Gold star for robot boy
Well then that's ok

If i waited for you
To show me all the actions i should take
Would i get my break?
Gold star for robot boy

And it's one thing
And it's something to do
The robot boy yeah

If i waited for lessons
In true confessions that could take all day
But i'm here to stay
Gold star for robot boy
Well then that's my move

Well then that's my move
Well then that's my move
But it's one thing
Yeah it's something to do
The robot boy yeah

If i waited for you
To signify the moves that i should make
I'll be on the take
Gold star for robot boy
Well then that's okay

Well, come on now and see the course
That never fields the game of choice
And cold allies of steel
Couldn't buy the way it feels
Rusty and divided steel
The race is yet to come

Tower to the skies
An academy of lies
And what goes up
Surely must come down
And we felt the mighty blow-up
With the walls coming down
Or something like that

Most of us are quite pleased
With the same old song
And all of a sudden i'm relatively sane
With everything to lose and nothing to gain
Or something like that

Man of wisdom and man of compromise
Man of weak flesh in an armored disguise
All fall down

"if it's right you can tell" echos myron like a siren
With endurance like the liberty bell
And he tells you of the dreamers
But he's cracked up like the road
And he'd like to lift us up, but we're a very heavy load
And we're finally here and shit yeah it's cool
And shouldn't it be - or something like that

Sitting out on your house
Watching hardcore ufo's
Drawing pictures, playing solos til ten

Are you amplified to rock?
Are you hoping for a contact?
I'll be with you, without you, again

Turn and run, the angel's calling
You say when and i say i'm falling
Up and down through broken down buildings
Back and forth but please don't bother at all

Count the days that we have wasted from the start
Speak the words and build a playground
In your head

Turn and run, the angel's calling
You say when and i say i'm falling
Up and down through broken down buildings
Back and forth but you know why i left you for so long
You know why i left you for so long...

The lifeblood - the lighthouse flashing
16 chicks remain on watch
For the wheels to come rolling in
And they do...
Yes they always do
I'd be bored and disappointed if they didn't

Buzzards and dreadful crows
Right on the tip of my nose
They wait like cats and fly out
For the light in my eyes to die out
And it does...
Yes it always does
I'd be shocked and removed if it didn't

Buzzards and dreadful crows
A necessary evil, i suppose
There's something in this deal for everyone
Did you really think that you were the only one?

Buzzards and dreadful crows

You were the only one
