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 05:31
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

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

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
