Soggy popcorn in the mud the ape circus left town but the bells can stil be heard they say the show was controversially absurd Playing piano on the beach trying to find the chord that always helps me fall asleep but the water is rising and it's getting deep Come little monkey spread your wings I got the faith and food for both of us let me see that monkey grin God don't care about no sin Neighbors throwing glasses old friends making passes finished up my gin and tonic I thought our love was platonic Clothes on the sticky floor come pour me some more Come little monkey back to me I got bananas and Jamaican rum come little monkey I want some come little money gimme some Thanks to Ole Kristian Einarsen, Sebastian Kittelsen, Firat Can, Jan Nedbal and Nikolai Alber.

I need a new lover and I need a new friend I want a pretty girl that can talk some sense talk some into me, talk some sense into me She could make me quit smoking maybe start believing that there's anything in this world worth achieving I've been struggling too long and I'm sick and tired keep trying to figure out what way I'm wired cause I don't make sense to me They say that the world is getting smaller everyday that's why I can hear what everybody has to say and they don't make sense to me, no one makes sense to me So where is that person that could turn me around I can't engage in conversation I just hang around someone talk some sense into me, someone talk some sense into me How do you do what you all do every day just seems like another thing to get through and that don't make sense to me, no that don't make sense to me I go dancing, drinking and kissing but I know that something is missing for it so make sense to me All my old friends they just can't get enough they stand around in circles waiting for a puff but it dont make sense to me So where are you pretty babe when I need you come look me in the eye and tell me true that it makes sense to you, that it makes sense to you.

The Dart 02:50
Are you really satisfied with your product or is this still you, just bouncing off me? Can't wrap my head around all of the things that rang true to me this weekend But I do admit that time takes it's time you can't make ghost disappear in a year But last night I had this dream This random theme That made it seem Like it was I the one to throw the dart and pierce your brave young heart and I the one to change the name of this silly little game for ain't we all the same as long as we keep breathing I believe in retrieving, who? You. This is what happened, in short we were dancing then somebody came and asked us to leave Balancing you on my feet we pretended that you were saving the day Well aware that the world was burning we sat in the corner talking about trees And there came this random theme That made it seem Like it was I the one to throw the dart and pierce your brave young heart and I the one to change the name of this silly little game for ain't we all the same as long as we keep breathing

Lullaby 01:38
You crush me down and make me feel like I got more love than I could ever steal And I know you've had more troubles than a few I'm so glad I found love in you You make me laugh like a school girl make me forget about this cruel world I hope you heard the Sam Cook song I sent he was born by the river in a little tent

It took a while to realize, even longer to admit that you shouldn't try to love again before you're over it A dusty film's been lifted from my lungs and my heart I realized I've been shoveling coal into someone elses cart I'm struggeling to see myself in the best light I can but I'm embracing all the forks in the road to becoming a better man I still feel the marks from the day you touched my arm I've since learned that scars aren't always evidence of harm My love it never weakened it still burns an amber bright and just cause it all went wrong doesn't mean it wasn't right I've begun to embody all your traits and your charms and I've stopped feeling lonely in the company of empty arms Delusions are merely illusions that convince and one day sweet babe you're gonna have to stand beside your prince Climb the tower and watch the sea seduce the sun the horizon tells me the best part is just begun Yeah it took a while to realize, even longer to admit that you shouldn't really try to love before you are over it.

We told ourselves we wouldn't hurry we told ourelves we woulnd't worry but love is blind and it's all getting blurry you're my Scarlet, don't let me be your Bill Murray I got you bad you're like my nicotine I'm a bonfire and you're the kerosene you're like nothing no one has ever seen I'll love you while I'm waiting for the vaccine I just don't care I ain't never going back you'll be my last, you'll be my heart attack I just don't care I ain't never going back you'll be my last, you'll be my heart attack At last we do what's good I guess we are too good to last I think we both did what we could time just went by a little too fast We're both too far gone but you're the only one that run I think I would've caught on but I didn't hear the starting gun I just don't care I ain't never going back you'll be my last, you'll be my heart attack I just don't care I ain't never going back you'll be my last, you'll be my heart attack
