Haydyn Marina Tuff choice having to choose between this one, the title track and Golden Pigeon, but bad Medicine rings deep. Lacrimosa is (not) by (very) far my favorite DF album. Favorite track: bad Medicine.

Baby 03:02
Baby I thought I saw you in the vending machine Baby I thought I saw you last week My aunt told me you were one of a kind You've got a real big vocabulary when you try Baby I said you look like an alien I could only read your lips Whether you're laughing or crying You know I believe it You know I believe it Bay-bee-ee-ee Deliver me from this playpen Bay-bee-ee-ee You were confused by expression I had to go ahead and roll up the window So I couldn't hear you crying from Cony Island BABY

Lacrimosa 05:07
She's away And we're safe To eat each others' faces Off the warmth and the hate Of the concrete In a way I can taste All the worms inside your belly Fell the sweet, Sweet release Of your sweat drops O, Lacrimosa You're in Heaven Should of stopped the sun from rising 'Twas the last night of our youth And I used to be a man of words Now I'm a man of big, BIG ideas And I say: Lacrimosa You're in Heaven What does one say to an emperor Y'could say, "Through your scepter in the mud!" "Go fling your jewels into the river" "Let the birdsnest in your crown." Y'could say something like, Lacrimosa You're in Heaven Gerald was a schizophrenic

Home again home again Jiggety jig Last two folks on the face of the planet Trying to figure out something they can prove And the sky's on fire and it's a golden afternoon Cry cry Little elves all alone Dancing naked but something is wrong Feel kind of weird, a slight bit stifled Oh my! Where's papa's rifle! I got your p-shooter right here, boy! Takin'em out, one by one by one. OH YES! And better yet, YES! And better yet, YES! Pull the trigger son! PULL THE TRIGGER SON! Home again home again Jiggety jig Last two folks on the face of the planet Trying to figure out something they can prove And the sky's on fire and it's a golden afternoon

Trendy 05:16
Oh tell me how to be real don't say I feel everything you feel in a glass display you know so well it stinks like hell And you go home alone With a rotting body in your lawn in a glass display you know so well Oh HELL! Oh HELLO HELL! I'm happy as I ever was You're happy as you're ever be We're happy in our underwear We're happy that we're decomposing meat! "Me, Me" Me decomposing. Go hit the road and find your God, You could stand alone, too bad you're not In a glass display you know so well, Now it fell, and you have no home. No cloud to hang your hat upon. In a glass display you know so well, Oh HELL! Oh HELLO HELL! I'm happy as I ever was You're happy as you're ever be We're happy in our underwear We're happy that we're decomposing meat! "Me, Me" Me decomposing. I'm happy as I ever was You're happy as you're ever be I'm like everyone I'm not the only one I'm not like anyone (Thus) I'm like everyone I don't want to hear it no more I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT NO MORE

People in Hell, they want ice water, Out in the city they all want to 'get some' Mow the grass below the trailer The kind of job I wished I'd done Holy Ghost C'mon in my window Tongues of fire C'mon in my room Enjoy that circling flame Enjoy. That circling flame. People in Hell, they want ice water, CO$BY: You seek yourself and find yourself, and take a look inside yourself, and see the self inside yourself is not really yourself at all. So you take the self inside yourself and you put that self outside yourself, and you look back down inside yourself, and you can see yourself now, on a warm sunny beach... And you feel that warmth spread from head down to your feet... And know you can go back to this place any time you wish. And all you have to do is close your eyes and count to 10. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 If only you, could see me now.

Fat man jumping into the pool with barbell weights He's holding his breath, yes, he's holding his breath And like an astronaut, he levitates off of the roof The birds all screaming his name, You ain't just whistling Dixie! The Rolling Stones have failed us again, and our skeletons are friends! Shooting through rivers of monkeys Valleys of babies, old man's face on a cube. Concentric rings and things, And I know what to do. YES, I know what to do, WOOHOO woo woo! Our skeleton's are friends!

Why 03:07
What's the bright light for? Let's see Count yourself backwards From zero to five And let me express that It's okay to cry And you don't need to know why Open you're window And wink with your eye Unmake your old bed And sleep by my side And you don't need to know why She is here again Morning's just around the river Bend Your frame, Lady of the Eyes You don't need to know why

long ago liberty pinioned wing eat bubbles breathing under stink molecules in my heart and digging up fratres old mabbeled doo hickey's freaking concrete, in the pale matter I saw a light. The swaying breeze and the elm trees reach out and beacon me like Otis Redding taking off his jacket in the middle of a performance and the mittle of a set during the hit song I've been loving you. two dogs love each other and make pies in the shady shade of a deciduous pine tree in the winter. Listen you men of faith! I was a rebel and they chose to froze me in Vinyl. I was a MOJO and they ate my soul with VINYL.. Sheep eat Vinyl. I was a beast and the shrew is voted the most dangerous rodent, One could say the Lion of the Rodent kingdom. Wine-headed undercover man ls leading me to Martin Van Buren playing tiddlywinks with little Van Burens. Wentilfief!

bad Medicine 04:09
Snake Bites, they excrete on them, Snake Skin sandwiches Glucose & Glycogen Bang my head against the wall for some of them. Beautiful Lady Beautiful Heroine Can you Give me some Good Medicine Can you Give me some Goood Medicine She was Long Gone Long Long gone and I chased her to the stop sign like a dog Go ask God go ask you mom to bump you up and I take what I can get and I get enough Beautiful Lady Beautiful Heroine Can you Give me some Good Medicine Can you Give me some Goood Medicine Can you FEED me some Good Medicine

Gerbert 03:52
Little kids having fits in the dark Sharing sickness, and funny remarks And you're swinging around off insanity's wrecking ball Squeezing out joy and I have to admit: I was a kid who was quite often sick. Wait a minute, a conclusion I might offer Is don't let your memories choke your throat and stomp you Once all those hands and words senselessly fought you Your heart wasn't snuffed, but it certainly had enough laughing at its pain. All those smiles busting teeth from sealed lips Happy enough to resort to their fists And you're swinging around off in Sanity's wrecking ball Smashing you're 'know-it-all' logic to bits Wait a minute, a conclusion I might offer Don't sell your soul for just 20 square dollars You're not so down when you're down on the bottom And don't you forget about all of your nonsense you saved so long ago. And if you see his face You will be afraid And you will love him Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice! And me, I believe I've finally found a friend Alone again in a place where ghosts don't like to go. And if you believe in love that's true I believe that that weird thing will find you.

Felix 03:22
(the inhospitable ghost) Felix Ghost-like DNA Most memorable one-act play Transparent marionette "I bet you have no birthday." Felix So tired of running Through factories humming And piano wires thundering 3 AM visions of ghostly old men in your bathroom. With eyes red hot and rolling, You already know, You are one inhospitable ghost With eyes black and hollow And silent as night You already know what it means to die. Feeeeelix So awkward and jittery In my backwards 3rd memory You haunt only far away places That you know that you know. Felix If you were my brother, Or sister, or mother We'd laugh at each other Until we all started to cry, Eye. With eyes red hot and rolling, You already know, You are one inhospitable ghost With eyes black and hollow And silent as night You already know what it means to DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, dieDIE, dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE,dieDIE, die, diediediediediediediediediedie, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die. ...die

Golden pigeon in the road eating junk food with it's eyes closed Left over ice cream cones and tofu. It was stinking in the sun. And I was thinking in the sun in The middle of a five-lane highway doing 80 I thought i saw something in the road I believe it was a sparrow Now its all over my window Run over me Tuesday night There was this guy named Seth Baker who stabbed somebody with a marlin spike. It was Tuesday night I had to walk home. My name was Picasso. Some people are propositioning me outside of my window Holding $20, I saw the light one night, In a city where I dreamed of a swamp. I want to show you I want to show you. Run over me

Larcimosa
A curious fragment containing studies on life, death, and the mo jo.

Whats the bright light for?
