Serve the Servants
Teenage angst has paid off well 
Now I'm bored and old 
Self-Appointed judges judge 
More than they have sold  

If she floats than she is not 
A witch like we had thought 
A down payment on another 
One at salem's lot  

Serve the servants - Oh no 
That legendary divorce is such a bore  

As my bones grew they did hurt 
They hurt really bad 
I tried hard to have a father 

But instead I had a dad  

I just want you to know that I 
Don't hate you anymore 
there is nothing I could say 
that I haven't thought before  

Serve the servants - oh no 
That legendary divorce is such a bore  
Scentless Apprentice
Like most babies smell like butter 
his smell smelled like no other 
he was born scentless and senseless 
he was born a scentless apprentice  

Go away - get away, get away, get a-way 
every wet nurse refused to feed him 
electrolytes smell like semen  

I promise not to sell your perfumed secrets 
there are countless formulas for pressing flowers  

I lie in the soll and fertilize mushrooms 
Leaking out gas fumes are made into perfume  

You can't fire me because I quit 
Throw me in the fire and I won't throw a fit  
Heart-Shaped Box
She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak 
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for a week 
I was drawn into your magnet tar pit trap 
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back  

Hey 
Wait 
I've got a new conplaint 
Forever in debt to your priceless advice 
Hate 
Haight 
I've got a new complaint 
Forever in debt to your prieless advice 
Hey 
Wait 
I've got a new complaint 
Forever in debt to your priceless advice  

Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet 
Cut myself angel's hair and baby's breath 
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black 
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back  
Rape Me
Rape me 
Rape me my friend, 
Rape me, 
Rape me again.  

I'm not the only one  

Hate me, 
Do it, and do it again.  

Waste me, 
Rape me, my friend.  

My favorite inside source, 
I'll kiss your open sores, 
Appreciate your concern 
You'll always, stink, and burn.  
Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle
It's so relieving to know that you're leaving as soon as you get paid 
It's so relaxing to hear you're asking wherever you get your way 
I's so soothing to know that you'll sue me 
This is starting to sound the same 
I miss the comfort in being sad  

In her false withness, we hope you're still with us 
To see if they gloar or drown 
Our favorite paitent, A display of patience,  
Disease-covered Puget Sound 
She'll come back as fire, to burn all the liars,  
And leave a blanket of ash on the ground  
Dumb
I'm not like them 
But I can pretend 
The sun is gone 
But I have a light 
The day is done 
But I'm having fun  

I think I'm dumb 
or maybe just happy 
Think I'm just happy 
my heart is broke 
But I have some glue 
help me inhale 
And mend it with you 
We'll float around]  
And hang out on clouds 
Then we'll come down 
And I have a hangover...Have a hangover  

Skin the sun 
Fall asleep 
Wish away 
The soul is cheap 
Lesson learnedd 
Wish me luck 
Soothe the burn 
Wake me up  
Very Ape
I am buried up to my neck in 
Contradictionary lies 
I take pride as the kind of illiterature 
I'm very ape and very nice  

If you ever need anything please don't hesitate 
to ask someone else first 
I'm too busy acting like I'm not naive. 
I've seen it all I was here first  

Out of the ground 
Into the sky 
Out of the sky 
Into the dirt  
Milk It
I am my own parasite  

I don't need a host to live 
We feed off of each other 
We can share our endorphns  

Doll steak, test meat  

I own my own pet virus 
I get to pet and name her 
Her milk is my shit 
My shit is her milk  

Doll steak, test meat
  
Look on the bright side is suicide 
Lost eyesight I'm on your side 
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing 
Lack of iron and/or sleeping 
Protector of the kennel 
Ecto-plasma 
Ecto-Skeletal 
Obituary birthday 
Your scent is still here in my place of recovery  
Pennyroyal Tea
I'm on my time with everyone 
I have very bad posture 
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea 
Distill the life that's inside of me 
Sit and drink Pennyroyal tea 
I'm anemic royalty 
Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld 
So I can sigh enternally 
I'm so tired I can't sleep 
I'm a liar and a thief  

Sit and drink pennyroyal Tea 
I'm anemic royalty 
I'm on warm milk and laxatives 
Cherry-flavored antacids  
Radio Friendly Unit Shifter
Use just once and destroy 
Invasion of our piracy 
Afterbirth of a nation 
Starve without your skeleton key  

I love you for what I am not 
I do not want what I have got 
A blanket acne'ed with ciggarette burns 
Speak at once while taking turns 
Second-rate third defree burns  

What is wrong with me 
What is what I need 
What do I think I think  

This had nothing to do with what you think 
If you ever think at all 
Bi-polar opposites attract 
All of a sudden my water broke  

Hate, hate your enemies 
Save, save your friends 
Find, find your place 
Speak, speak the truth  
Tourette's
Cufk, Tish, Sips  (Fuck, Shit, Piss)  

    ---[Interpretation 1] 
Moderate Rock  

May day, every day, my day                               
Could've had a heart attack, my heart                          
We don't know anything, my heart.                             
We all want something fair, my heart.                         
Hey! 
Hey! 
Heyyyyyyy! Heyyyyy!  Heyyyyy!                        
Out of town, out of sight (fire), is my heart.                           
Queen of lies, today, my heart                        
One more on the phone, my heart                           
One more at the door of my heart.                             
Hey! 
Hey! 
Heyyyyyyyyyyy!                             
							    
Mean heart, cold heart, cold heart, cold heart 
Cold heart, cold heart, cold heart, cold heart -- uhhhhhhh!  


     ---[Interpreation 2] 
Moderate Rock... 
It's your enemy, no way! 
Get out all the time of my heart 
There's no enemy in my heart 
Well I'm sick--a path in my heart           (--of what I've found in my heart) 
All the time I've been fucked--it's my heart 
We're all also dead in my heart 
Oh no!  It's the fault of my heart 
Oh no!  It's the fault of my heart 
We are...Tourette  
All Apologies
What else should I be 
All apologies 
What else should I say 
Everyone is gay 
What else could I write 
I don't have the right 
What else should I be 
All apologies  

In the sun 
In the sun I feed as one 
In the sun 
In the sun 
I'm married 
buried  

I wish I was like you 
Easily amused 
Find my nest of salt 
Everything is my fault 
I'll take all the blame 
Aqua seafoam shame 
Sunburn with freezerburn 
Choking on the ashes of her enemy 
All in all we all are
