Possum Dixon

Your emergency's about to end
Earlier this evening on your bed
Well, I can hear them upstairs rattlin'
Off the names of people that are dead

Hear them, listen
Hear them talkin'
Bark, bark, bark, bark
Talkin' nonsense

Your distress distracts me to no end
Your distress distracts me from my friends
Dollar Chinese food won't settle in
And your bull whip is rippin' me to shreds

Aw, come on, come over, let me in
Wake up and roll over, 'cause I'm comin' in
Your emergency's about to end
Your emergency, your emergency

Your words burn like acid on my skin
And my attention span's unravellin'
And I'm comin' over, let me in
Wake up and roll over, 'cause I'm comin' in
Your emergency's about to end

End. Stop. Cut. Out. End. Stop. Cut. Out.

Landlord church
Car crash work
My head aches
And silver lake

You nerve me

Well, I hate work
I'm a mail room clerk
[Incomprehensible]
Stop me from making mistakes

But you nerve me

The girl's on glue
When the rent check's due
I suicide
Stop me from calling late

But you burned me

And I think it's gonna be
A long walk home
And it's gonna be
A long walk to the car

And I think it's gonna be
A long walk home
It's gonna be
A long walk to the car

She looks like
An actress who's late for an audition
Is she Catholic, or Jewish, or the devil
Half Catholic, half Jewish, or the devil

And I'd like to see her wrapped around me
Like a day in October, wrapped around me

In buildings, she makes me shake now
In buildings, she makes me shake now

15 minutes on a couch with you
What a good idea
If I had 15 minutes on a couch with you
The things that you're wearin' won't stop me now, hey!
What a good idea
And if she's the devil, give her a wedding dress

Hey God, are you up there?
I know it's been a while but I've I've been away
I'm in trouble I'll take a number if I I've gotta wait
But there's a girl in this world that and she's killing me
I hurt so bad

I watch that girl destroy me
(I watch that girl)
I watch that girl destroy me
She blows me now, it's you
I watch that girl destroy me
(I watch that girl)
I watch that girl destroy me
She blows me now, it's you

Well let me tell you now, I like the movies and she likes the movies
We like the movies together
But when the lights go up and the curtains go down
And we deal, and we deal again and we deal
And we deal if and we deal if I know it's wrong

I watch that girl destroy me
(I watch that girl)
I watch that girl destroy me
She blows me now, it's you
I watch that girl destroy me
(I watch that girl)
I watch that girl destroy me

Hey God, have you noticed?
That it's not just me who needs your sympathy
Think of my life and the things that I get for lovin' I lose myself
But I deal, and I deal with, and I deal with I know it's wrong

I watch that girl destroy me
(I watch that girl)
I watch that girl destroy me
She blows me now, it's you
(I watch that girl)
I watch that girl destroy me
(I watch that girl)
I watch that girl destroy me
Hey watch that now

Come on, come on
Come on, come on

The secretary says to boss, "Hello today"
Well, she's impartial to the news and she's just that way
You look like a picture from a magazine
And you look like a picture from a magazine

Now she's driving in my head, head, head
Now she's driving in my head, head, head

The secretary says to me at lunch today
"Well at 12:15, we'll leave and we'll drive away"
And you look like a picture from a magazine
And you look like a picture from a magazine

Now she's driving in my head, head, head
Now she's driving in my head, head, head

Now she drives
(Now she's driving in my head)
Now she drives
(Head)
Now she drives
(Head)

Airports lines
I wish it was summertime
But it's Sunday night
And flight five-five-seven's arrived

She tells me
She's filled buildings with history
On 22nd Street
She's not invisible

My head aches
Echo park turns to silver lake
Where Millie's diner
Is closed today

I like the taste of chocolate cake
I close my eyes and I masturbate
I close the door because I'm afraid
He'll see me, I'm bored

She thinks of big blue whales
While she's biting her fingernails
She writes plays
I read paperbacks

They've just begun
3D picnics, electric sun
I don't care
Where you're coming from

He's up there on the 8th floor
And he's falling from the speakers
And his head's smashed
To the grounds

And every time you leave me
Call to love you
But I gotta go
Just watch me drown

And if someday's dry
We're going to Ransburg
It's hotter
Than hell there

We're invisible
And we're bullet-proof
We're invisible
And we're bullet-proof

Understanding nothing can be so comforting
But understanding you is like biology
You lay there on the bathroom floor
I hold you in my hand and don't be shy

When you pick it up and stab it I start to bleed
You know what to do

Well, I feel like a scientist until I'm out of breath
Well, I'm good with part and get away, it's what I need, hey
When you got everything you've got nothing
And when you got nothing you've got it all

And marry me baby, and sleep with me baby
We'll sleep with the lights on and we'll sleep with our clothes on

And marry me baby, and sleep with me baby
We'll sleep with our clothes on and we'll sleep with the lights on
Just marry me baby

I'm not trapped in your
I'm not trapped in your
I'm not trapped in your
Executive slacks

I can't be your
I can't work as
I can't be your
Executive slave

And what can you say about it?
I was straight anyway
You're so wonderful
You're so pretty

Well, getting drunk at the bamboo terrace
With the Tiki tea room is where I'm at
And if my conscience wants to catch up with me
They'll send an army out to lynch, lynch me

I'm not trapped in
I'm not trapped in
I'm not trapped in
No, I'm not trapped in
Executive slacks

Hey, what can you say about it?
Are you straight anyway?
And you'll be back on the trials
And I'll be back in a little while

And it goes like that
And it goes like that
And it goes like that
And it goes like that
And it goes like that
And it goes like that

Well, Regina's the girl, and the student, the actress
She was fallin' in love with a man on TV
She needed a break from the day in the life
She was high on speed, she got high on speed

She lays on the bed with the phone on in her ear
And her soft-sell records gonna play all day
She's the girl, she's the student, the actress
She's the one, she's the girl, but she's not for me
Here we go now

Oh, Regina
And we smile while we stare

She needed a break from the day in the life
With her fake ID one, nine, six, one
She's the girl, she's the student, the actress
She's the one, she's the girl, but she's not for me
Here we go now

Oh, Regina
And we smile while we stare
And we stop when we are there, gonna say it again
Oh, I need ya and we smile

Oh, Regina and we smile
Oh Regina, it's the things that you do
I'll give my world to be with you, dear

This is a very important announcement
Lucy is being photographed by John on the bathroom floor
John is taking pictures of Lucy
The wall is dripping from the sink

And John struck Lucy
John, the boss, the lover, the giant and a lot of thing
He hit her with a stick
(Price check on four)
Then John struck Lucy
(Yeah, number four)
Then John struck Lucy, go away

Then John struck Lucy
(Remember the hidden cost)
Then John struck Lucy
(Remember the hidden cost)

I'm not a type and you know I really want you
I'm waiting for the doors to close so I can really show you
You're interior is playing with my insides
And every time I close the door, you watch a suicide

Oh me and elevators, we're going to the go-go
Me and elevators, we're going to the picture show
Don't you know I can't love you like a girl
You all set me up and bring me down

One of these days you're gonna find out
And the door's closed, we'll be together
And all these people are gonna find out
And the door's closed, we'll be together

I'm wasted in the elevator
I'm wasted in the elevator
I'm wasted in the elevator
Don't you know I'm wasted in the elevator?

One of these days you're gonna find out
And the door's closed, we'll be together
All these people are gonna find out
And the door's closed, we'll be together

And one of these days you're gonna find out
When the door's closed, we'll be together
And all these people are gonna find out
When the door's closed, we'll be together

One of these days you're gonna find out
And the door's closed, we'll be together
All these people are gonna find out
And the door's closed, we'll be together

One of these days you're gonna find out
And the door's closed, we'll be together
And all these people are gonna find out
And the door's closed, we'll be together
