Ikea Heirloom
04:09
|

A silver streak of boyhood runs through the man tonight
Reflects his dream if only he could ride the light
The fearless fly the scared they get insured
In other words it's time to go to war
Yeah you've gotten in my ear
It's time to run down your ideas
If beauty's a whisper, then why you worship the noise?
The felt wallpaper won't last a week
When the kids inherit the brick veneer tomb
You can do your block and renovate your memories
Who'll fight over the IKEA heirloom?
Wo oh Perry Como, he's singin' about the good times
And what does that mean?
Sadness wraps around us
If it's sonic it comes on like a tonic
When it all starts to bleed there's hope for happiness
It comes on like a dream
You'll be in there lovin' it, you'll be in there lovin' it
Wo oh don't go steppin' on high heels
You'll get run over by mag wheels
Possibly crossin' those double white lines
And you'll have fun with the full moon
If you're in touch with your bedroom
A taste of something fine
You'll be in there lovin' it, you'll be in there lovin' it

Searching For Now
03:29
|
|||
Before this cloud becomes a storm
If you want to run then run
Cos your hands aren't tied and it feels alright
We're about to learn
What we have and what will burn
Makes you wanna cry
What you once loved dies
Hold onto the wheel
Memorise, there's a ripple on your eye
Many times you will wave your arse goodbye
There's a lot of words
Trying to make you take that turn
That you can't back from
Go where you don't belong
Hold onto the wheel
Memorise there's a ripple on your eye
Many times you will kiss your arse goodbye
All this time you've been searching for now
All this time you've been searching
Memorise there's a ripple on your eye
Take your time cos the past wants to subside
All this time you've been searching for now
All this time you've been searching

Blownout Resilience
03:15
|
|||
The road is so smooth, we should skate down it
Here comes the length feeling through victory
After skinning I'm occasionally mischievious
A little nervous in the emptiness
A little delirious with the document
The road is so smooth we should skate down it
Lust like lacking is special, ram ruler public opinion
Firmness in excess
Anguish letter fever truce
Three weeks on a death bed
I'm buried in the pillow, it's quiet in the pillow
I'm clinging to the blanket, I'm hanging on to you
We buckle with sleep, cutting ribbons
Unveiling monumental dreams
Crack the quarter window, withdrawal is our luxury
Restless fury they victory, for the scanning eye
For starters some say entree
Different values, different life
The road is so smooth we should skate all the way along it

Teenager In Your Head
03:07
|
|||
Wandered in the night
Wandered in a reverie
I was listening to 10cc
But it was all about the nicotine
Teenager in your head
Thinkin' you got time
How are you and how you been?
We can see it in your eyes
It's not the way it's meant to be
It's like a different place to me
Teenager in your head
Thinkin' you got time
But the moment came and went
And the moment lasts a lifetime
Wandered in the wilderness
Stewed in my own juice
Ran on my own batteries
That's no excuse
Phone numbers in your head
Thinkin' you got time
Yellow pages came and went
You got taken for a ride

Wake Up Sleeping
04:59
|
|||
You're not broken babe, maybe flawed
Gloriously unique and adored
Do the strangers that you love exist inside you?
Or do you terrify you?
We can be neurotic, we don't have to know everything
Well lets start giving
You just said take up feeling
Start dead end up living
Go to bed wake up sleeping
The sun it comes up yeah the sun it goes down
Just as love stretched your imagination
Suffering gave birth to wisdom
Start dead end up living
Go to be wake up sleeping
Yeah the sun it comes up yeah the sun it goes down
Yeah the sun it comes up

Coutts Crossing
02:52
|
|||
Oh the road was long
But it was the blink of an eye
I was listening to talk back radio
Mostly they're all terrified
Oh and they're tired of being good
They're clearing their throats and saying shit
Once the host made it clear they could
They say oh the night got easier since I talked to you
Now I might get some sleep too
Then my gauge so low and I did not know where I'd find
Some fuel forty k's outside Grafton
Three hours after midnight
I pulled over and I locked all the doors
Then I woke to pink skies and wise bovine
And a crow hopping down the road
Oh but it was much easier than
I'd imagined walking with an empty can
In the mist just around the bend
Coutts Crossing fuel station at 6am
Coutts Crossing
Coutts Crossing in the mist at 6am

Who is taking the minutes?
And who is spending the hours?
Who is counting the years babe?
Who is living the life?
Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday
Unwrap the present now
Summer is up in the air
Winter is down in the dumps
Spring is in step babe
Autumn is dropping the hints
Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday
Unwrap the present now
Unlock your breathing heart
Yeah I need some more
Unlock your breathing heart
A mirror is a mirror is a mirror is a mirror
Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas
Unwrap your present now
I love your breathing heart
Yeah I need some more
Unwrap your breathing heart
Unlock your breathing heart
I need some more
Unlock your wreathing heart

Damp Places
02:51
|
|||
Got a memo from the universe
Said when I get home you won't be there too
Said that you went on some dumb kind of ride
Flew between house where the moss and flowers grew
Damp places where we ain't been before
Places where the meter readers and the cats go
It was Autumn, I was forlorn
The seasons talk to me
I know not what they say
But there are more of them
I think that you should stay here
There are gold mines
There is gold veined all through these streets
There are bake sales and honey pies
And fetes that roll into the evening
When the winter moon comes up
The stars are still stood up
The crowds are lined up for displays
They're all hoping it's still open
The seasons talk to me
I need all that they say
And we have all of them
If only for today
Long days and long evenings come on back to me
Take out the laundry then come on back to me
These days are unending come on back to me
These days are for giving come on back to me
I'd like your company come on back to me
We make a good team so come on back to me
New days are beginning

Adventure
02:59
|
|||
Get on by, we're lookin' at a burnt out forest
Ten times micro gonna search all over the find
Need no more if love it overrides
Hand it over to the warm enough
Hell us home we've decided
That's all pushin' design
Put 'don't mind' in the ramble from the pulpit
Here they come marchin', steppin' all over the line
Take a good look back into the era
Cos that's where it leads and that's where it led tonight
If you believe, if you believe in something
Then you'll believe some things can come true
Oh but you don't believe, you don't believe in nothing
Then you'll concede that you can see it's true
There's a fork in the highway of denial
You turned back trackin' down a knife
Sweetness comes primed praying on a kneel
We got lost in the distance of the strive
If you believe, if you believe in something
Then you'll believe some things can come true
But you don't believe, you don't believe in nothing
So your belief is overdue
If you believe...
Then you'll believe...
But you don't believe...
Then you can see that your conceit is true

Gone
02:37
|

I worry about you everyday
What's ahead for us?
Sleeping's not an option
Looking through the cracks in the fence
The world keeps moving
Comfort's in the things you hold close
But out beyond the fence who knows?
I dig a little hole it fills with water
It's still not empty when the cracks appear
The temptation is to run but not too far
Stay close and we will be safe together
