I catch you looking at me kinda funny
Like you know me and I owe you money
Oh you're such a flirt, exactly the kind
that makes my heart hurt
If I could drive I'd take you for a ride
cause I'd like to be by your side
Everytime we talk I feel I'm chewin on chalk
And everytime we meet I just stare at my feet
Yeah you make my knees weak
You make it hard for me to speak
Yeah I might have a crush
But I ain't in no rush
To throw my heart at the wall
Just to see if it'll stick,
I dont want you to be a habit I can't kick
But you're still lookin at me
Looking at me like I need therapy
but I aint gonna be the next name on your list
I'm just gonna try my best to pretend you don't exist
I want a woman with a certain kind of hunger
I don't need a girl to make me feel younger
But I heard somewhere
That someone said
It's easier to get in
Than out of your bed
Ain't looking for love
I just want some action
Ain't looking for love
I just want a reaction
I want that mutual assured distraction

It's 3 a.m once again
Time has never been your friend
You say you seen me once or twice before
And that you'd like to see me some more
Yeah yoou're so damn charming and a bit outrageous
If only love was this contagious
You think you make me blue
But all i feel is deja vu
You think you make me so damn blue
Like you conjure up some ancient kind of voodoo
But you're runnin out of time
Just a half a glass of wine
Yeah you're running out of time
You're always a half a glass of wine behind
You're always half a glass of fine wine behind
And you're running out of time

Robocop

Silver screen light, he held my hand tight
I wished that I was the victim tonight
Cause when you came along you made me understand
That I'd just fancied boys before and now I'd met a man
Robocop, you surely made my jaw drop
Crackling film projector, future world protector
Stainless steel bulletproof shiny light reflector
I just up and leave, boy let go of my sleeve
Hunt him all round Detroit town, fight till both of us are down
Robocop, you surely made my jaw drop
I saw the light in your laser beam eyes
You pushed me up against the wall
You're so big and I'm so small
But the war is not over
Robocop, you surely made my jaw drop

Not Right Now

I dont know my way around this part of town
but I think I've been here in a movie or a dream
or maybe I just saw a picture in a magazine
anyway I wont get lost
and if I do I guess I'll pay the cost
but I don't wanna know where I am right now
I know I've seen that smile
and it's probably been a good ol' while
you might think its a shame
that I didnt ask your name
but I don't wanna get to know you right now
living on borrowed time
and thriving on past crime
one day we'll all stand trial
maybe tomorrow or a maybe in million little whiles
but I don't wanna know right now
you call me up 10 times a week
when I pick up you refuse to speak
I can hear your tears through the phone
and I understand if you don't wanna be alone, right now
I'm standing where the bomb went off
the smoke has cleared still people cough
but I don't wanna count the dead right now
i don't wanna be reminded of the dead right now

Hugging that wine bottle close to my heart
I knew something was wrong with you from the start
Getting all fucked up tonight and I don't even drink
Get out of my head, boy, I need to think
I'm gonna drink till I'm deaf, blind and dumb
No memory of you, just blissful and numb
Tonight I'm drinking for two
what else is there to do?
Tonight I'm drinking for three
what do you want from me?
Tonight I'm drinkin till four
till I crawl on the floor
I'm drinkin till five
till I'm barely alive
For a moment there I was floating in space
Thank you so much for putting me back in my place
It was all sunsets and trips to the moon
It started off too big and ended too soon
You make me feel like a fucking third-grader, boy
weren't there other sand castles for you to destroy?

Desert Song

Clowning round the same old ground
Choking on the sand inside my mind
You said: Help is probably just around the corner
You said: Please just don't say I didn't warn you
You said: I'm a fuckup but I just got fucked up orders
So keep on walking, girl, keep on walking
I see dead bodies in the sand
We both know there's no promised land
Make it feel like the first time again
Double bed, I'm going mad
Drowning in the buzzing of my head
Who said 'Patience is a virtue' with their own arm on fire
Who said 'To be a good man you have to be a liar'
He said 'Seas will open when you're neck up in the mire'
So keep on floating, girl, keep on floating
I see dead bodies in the sand
We both know there's no promised land
Make it feel like the first time again

Spent my last love on a cheap dessert
You think if you don't try it might not hurt
Spent my last money trying to fix the light
The first idea I had that was bright
Spent my last kiss on your sweet cheek
You wouldn't know cause you were still asleep
Then I went and did something dumb
One of those things you learn from
Spent my last luck at my favorite bar
Even the best poison won't get you far
Spent my last courage on a movie line
Now I have to walk without a spine
Lost my last friends on a carousel
Everything's for sale if you wanna sell
Then I went and did something dumb
One of those things you learn from
Spent my last lover on a chicken leg
I even came back when he started to beg
Spent my family on an airplane ticket
Guess I'm just first class wicked
Then I went and did something dumb
One of those things you learn from
Spent my last words on a good-looking suit
Now I can not tell you that you look so cute
Spent my last doubts on a cold, cold shower
I'd trade my love life for another happy hour
Then I went and did something dumb
One of those things you learn from

Margaret
You're Like a slow burning cigarette
A lot of time for regret, but I can't forget
The taste of you
You're like a blue smoke in a room from a cigar
Reaching far beyond any new years eve
But now it's time for me to leave
Crawl back up my sleeve
Just me and my heart
Oh Margaret, you're work of art, you're a Van Eijk portrait,
That I dont dare to interpret
Margaret
Let me be your slow burning cigarette
Just let me lay down
I wanna lay in your ashtray
Lay me lay down in one of your ashtrays
Cause I'm so lucky we met, but if you let me lay
Lay in your ashtray
Then I'll stay away
Until you pick me up again one day, sweet Margaret

I've Been Busy

You asked what I've been doing for so long
said I've been busy writing you a country song
Cause it's been raining for five weeks straight
I got a dozen leaks but it's gonna have to wait
You said: "Kiss me once for every year we were together
and I'll kiss you twice and hope we both get better"
Guess I'm just a mannish boy
Played with your heart like a chewing toy
All the songs I wrote you I never showed you any
All the songs I'll write you, a couple of hundred too many
