House That Hummed

There was a house that hummed
A horrible song
Its drone would drown out
What our bodies could not baffle
With your cheek to my chest
Take a breath, decompress
With the vampires of Iran
And those in the shadows
Credits roll, tensions rise
Like when spiders scorched the skies
But I found the words this time
Thank you for letting me stay
All your plans came unstuck
Two assholes in a truck
They said it couldn’t be done
As you broke down at the table
Like a darter in the dunes
Three flights I carry your room
But I swear I could lift the whole damn house
If that’s what I had to do
But I’d rather not bring the hum

The Rangers

Hold me under the water
My life is in your hands
And when they’re wrinkled from the withering
Or by that holy wall you stand
I hear you saw an end
Blood curdled block wide
Nothing could stop the mutt
As the rangers sit inside
Weak heart or torn apart
All familiars slip in time
And when the engine sputtered out
Our crossed lines stop their rhyme
Cos if I’m in the deep
When I give that call
You’ll pull me out of that water
As you’ve done a million times before
Strike out the side who run you down
Time petrified and nerve unwound
Dirt dog of choice, the pack says so
While rangers rejoice with their golden sombrero
It’s like they gave you less than nothing
Well I guess you wear the name
But even in your field of dreams
No matter what you built, they never came
And I seen you build it all
So when I hear you talk an end
I’ll wade through the waters
Time and time again
Strike out the side who run you down
Time petrified, the stitch unwound
I wear it too; the name bestowed
By rangers who groom their palominos
Hi ho ride
Fuck the rangers
T is for Tanya
T is for thanks
You put the breath in me
Fuck the rangers
T is for Tanya
T is for
Ma ma ma ma ma ma

Builder's Hands
04:30
|

High vis vest
Taut on your chest
Hold out your builder’s hands
Dimple dot cheek
Stumble on the speak
That weird static in the air
Brick and mortar
Silent waters
And the canyon of doubt
Papa show tough love
Bit of push, bitter shove
Now shake the builder’s hand
I couldn’t show
I did not know
I guess sorry doesn’t cut it
Strung out in Dubai
Or stoned in Brunei
Never quite feel at home
Rocks in his gut
Don’t know what’s what
Still mind the bedside manner
Stitched up belly
Nothing’s on tele
You know nothing stays on
Desperate housewives
Days of our lives
The week I hear that death rattle hum
Let’s make amends
Try it again
Hold out your builder’s hands

Un Mondo D'amore

Raimondo
Un mondo d’amore
Ti voglio bene
Mio aitante nipote
Ti conosco da quando
Eri uno zigote
Sei grande e forte ora
Ma come una pecora
Delicato, e ricorda
Perdere non ti rende un perdente
No
Raimondo
Un mondo d’amore
Se hai qualche domanda
Sono qui per aiutarti
Hai fame di pasta?
Cucinerò tutto quello che vuoi
Fettuccine, festoni,
Fusilli, o farfalle
Certo, non da zero
E un mistero
Tutte quelle forme, e ricorda
Quando sei solitario non sei solo
Raimondo
Un mondo d’amore
