Before it takes you over
Eastern standard open G
Transpacific malady and
Calm is more conducive to the
Remedy

Speckled sunlight on my freckles
Salty water curls my hair
Run the race at your own stride
You'll get at that place

What comes offset - the chorus or the verse?
I'grand a bit blocked at the moment
They say the more you lot learn the less that
You know

Barely dressed, and I just might
Take you up on your offer, yes

I got drunkard and roughshod asleep atop the sheets but luckily i left the heater on.

And in my dreams i wrote the all-time song that i've ever written…can't recollect how it goes.

I stayed drunk and fell awake and i was cycling on a plane and far away i heard y'all say you lot liked me.

We drifted to a party – cool.

The people went to arty schoolhouse.

They fabricated their paints past mixing acid wash and lemonade.

In my brain I re-arrange the letters on the page to spell your proper name.

I found an Ezra Pound and made a bet that if i found a cigarette i'd drib it all and marry you.

Just then a vocal comes on: "you can't always get what you desire" – the Rolling Stones, oh woe is nosotros, the irony!

The stones became the moss and once all inhibitions lost, the hipsters made a mission to the farm.

We drove past tractor at that place, the yellow straw replaced our hair, nosotros laced the dairy river with the cream of sweet vermouth.

In my encephalon I re-arrange the letters on the page to spell your name.

Yous said "nosotros only alive one time" then we touched a little natural language, and instantly i wanted to…I lost my train of thought and jumped aboard the Epping as the doors were slowly endmost on the world.

I touched on and off and rubbed my arm up against yours and still the inspector inspected me.

The lady in the roof was living proof that nothing really ever is exactly as it seems.

In my brain I re-arrange the messages on the page to spell your name.

We caught the river boat downstream and ended up abreast a team of angry footballers.

I fed the ducks some krill then we were sucked confronting our will into the welcome doors of the casino.

We drank green margaritas, danced with sweetness senoritas, and we all went home every bit winners of a kind.

You said "i guarantee nosotros'll have more than fun, drink till the moon becomes the sun, and in the taxi home i'll sing you a Triffids song!"

Women are scared that men will impale them
