Everyday Beauty
02:29
|

stunned by
your everyday beauty
your mundane
is still very much lovely
when the lights here change / your prettiness turns strange
glasses
steamed by your weather
fall down
light as a feather
vibrations speak / when words are just too weak
la, la, la
stunned by
your everyday beauty
your mundane
is still very much lovely
when the lights here change / your prettiness turns strange

Love Is Queer
04:01
|
|||
if it were up to me / I'd free the royal we
so we'd all get a chance / at married romance
Civil Unions, Please! / don't bring us to our knees
We'll linger there / la da duh da
who cares | what we do | in our own rooms
we love | just like you | only in better shoes...Love is Queer
we're not always sweet / like girls are 'sposed to be
we'd pull a knife / and steal your wife
'cause she's not very pleased / (by your ways) sexually
we'd take our time / and blow her mind
who cares | what we do | in our own rooms
we love | just like you | only in better shoes
love is queer, my dear / affection is mighty gay
even the macho man / is sweet on St. Valentine's day
love is queer, my dear / it's true-oo for everyone
whether you're a straight-laced girl / or a kick-ass lesbian... Love is Queer

driving through the streets of our drab town
bored to death we got nothin' to do (BORED TO DEATH!)
heaven's
a million years aw-off
and we're forbidden to touch
above and below the waist
take all you've seen
unlearn their ways
explore until your free
you'll find there's more to life than this...
frustration's swelling, but we must be good
so in love, who's better than you? (SO IN LOVE!)
Pleasure's
a million years aw-off
by then we'll be dead
above and below the waist
take all you've seen
unlearn their ways
explore until your free
you'll find there's more to life than these religious schemes
their fake guarantees
these purity schemes
to think your clean
take all you've seen
unlearn their ways
explore until your free
you'll find there's more to life than this...
driving through the streets of our drab town
bored to death we got nothin' to do (BORED TO DEATH!)
heaven's
a million years aw-off
by then we'll be dead
above and below the waist

It's Metaphorical
02:38
|
|||
it's metaphorical, it's metaphorical
for how much I love
it's metaphorical
for how much I love you
magnets bind / fire climbs / you keep blowing my mind
i'm attached to you
light my dark / leave a mark / electricity sparks
I am starved for you
it's metaphorical, it's metaphorical
for how much I love
it's metaphorical
for how much I love you
insane delight/ magic nights / my heart's taken flight
I'm entranced by you
it's metaphorical, it's metaphorical
for how much I love
it's metaphorical
for how much I love you

One Late Night
03:07
|
|||
please sit down for a little while
rest, relax I'm without guile
I won't try to make you love me back
I won't bring up that time we shared a kiss
a kih-iss
one late night we
kissed
now what do we do?
please sit down for a little while
rest, relax I'm without guile
we don't know what will happen next
it's just as well left better as a guess
a kih-iss
one late night we
kissed
now what do we do?
I won't try to make you love me back
I won't bring up that time we shared a kiss
a kih-iss
one late night we
kissed
now what do we do?

at the Pride parade
I finally understood you
oh-oh
in an unguarded moment
your love, it rang true
oh-oh
for now there's no you and us
no differences to cause a fuss
at the Pridefest
I finally understood you
oh, ohhhh

Pride Song

cheering on the garish floats
laughing at the queeny show boats
it's just all fun
it's just all fun
dykes on bikes laissez faire
city streets alive with bears
it's just all fun
it's just all fun
dancing round the fountain, nudes
boys and girls are chicks and dudes
it's just all fun
it's just all fun
sporties, femmes, BDSM
For now there's no us versus them
it's just all fun
it's just all fun
stopped
in an unguarded moment
i
clearly saw you
stopped
in an unguarded moment
i really understood you
cheering on the garish floats
laughing at the queeny show boats
it's just all fun
it's just all fun
dykes on bikes laissez faire
city streets alive with bears
it's just all fun
it's just all fun

i work in lost and found for things
left behind in dreams
that steering wheel, those fallen out teeth-
they come to me
your clothes that vanished...
we get all of that here
we catalog your fear
you lost your balance now it's with me
and now you're falling free
next stop the ground
that lesson plan for your final exam-
it's in my hand
Stressed back at school
if you were to analyze
all of the things I've got here
you would sorely realize
we're all as average as the hills
if you were to analyze
all of the things I've got here
you would sorely realize
we're all the same just like our pills
we get all of that here / we catalog your fear...
it's the same themes / in our fever dreams...

hey-hey
pinwheels shooting sparks
young cousins in the dark, dark
try leaving with out marks, marks, marks
hey-hey
fourth of July
family's downstairs out of sight
we get real deep
up inside my room
pinwheels shooting sparks
young cousins in the dark, dark
try leaving with out marks, marks, marks
hey-hey
now we're along
all they warned us falls away
we're that firework
lighting up your room

Your Hate Is Adorable
03:38
|
|||
they say everyone will let you down in time
they say that's life
for every stab I wish I had a dime
when my heart took the knife
your hate
is adorable
with pouting lip
there's not contempt at all
your act
of anger fails
to hide your want
it's so thinly veiled
they say good intentions often go awry
they say that's so
i'm tired of repeating, when you say goodbye,
the saddest works - don't go
your hate
is adorable
with pouting lip
there's not contempt at all
your act
of anger fails
to hide your want
it's so thinly veiled
