You don’t even wanna be my friend And all this time I thought you weren’t so bad You don’t even know my name Didn’t even ask me for my name You don’t even know the things you’ve done Center of your own universe I don’t really know you I don’t really care Water on the shore I don’t really know you
2.
Burn me a candle, blending the fragrant Air of a romance and deceit Burgundy shades an abomination Darkness upon my weary soul Touch in the open wounds of a good girl Tongue down her vodka, poison throat Build us a temple, love and devotion And in the center, make it hollow

Black Beetle 03:42
Black beetle, black beetle Are you serious? Black beetle, black beetle Take yourself seriously Ten thousand plagues are upon you And you’re in constant comedy I’m jealous, so jealous How can he touch you In places, soft places Where I’ve touched you gently When you held watermelons on your shoulders And secrets in your stomach Now blue lights blink with science fiction Black beetle, black beetle Are you serious? Black beetle, black beetle Take my word serious, please Ten thousand plagues are upon you You are in constant misery

MANNA 05:33
Two men go walking down the same old dirty dusty road Neither one knowing which way the other will go Pack your belongings, come and meet your brothers at sea Take anything you want, brother you know I won’t leave I hope the sky wherever you are rains manna They’ll be magic and mysteries, futile to future Japan Voodoo on lovers who refuse to even hold hands Mountains that overlook Mediterranean seas Gypsies in mud huts who talk tongues and know of everything I hope the sky in that paradise rains manna Because I’ve been curled up and captured, a dog in a hundred foot cage The food on the ground and the bed is barely in my name Brother you know I’d come see you if that was your will When the wind and the weather and the water is finally still I hope the sky in that prison yard rains manna
