I Left a Bowling Ball in the Garden 02:55
lyrics
I am losing again (ooh ooh ooh) I could go through anything (ooh ooh ooh) I need to win (ooh ooh ooh) I am losing again (ooh ooh ooh) I left a bowling ball in the garden (ooh ooh ooh) This time I know, I am going to win (ooh ooh ooh) I left a bowling ball in the garden (ooh ooh ooh) This time I know, I am going to win (ooh ooh ooh) I am sure to win this time (I am going to get something) I am going to win this time (You will feel chagrin) I am sure to win this time (It will be the shiniest of all) I am going to win (Love has wings and they will grow up to be Draculas)

Leverett (An Ophelia Afternoon) 04:05
lyrics
Sunlight dancing on the wind With Orange goldfish and jumping frogs This moment will end but lasting forever is just fine Sunlight shading the ground with yellow green grass and hollow reeds This moment could last but ending is just fine I am everywhere, one place at a time Saying nothing means everything I am everywhere, one place right now Saying everything means nothing Sunlight catching the shore With clear mud water and singing birds This moment will end, this moment is gone I am everywhere, one place at a time Saying nothing means everything I am everywhere, one place right now Saying everything means nothing I am everywhere, one place at a time Saying nothing means everything I am everywhere, one place right now Saying everything means nothing

What an Honor It Is to Break into Your Dreams with an Orchestra 03:06
lyrics
With a string section in my pocket And the brass by my side I have entered into your conscience A song to play through the night With the woodwind blowing a melody And the timpani booming in twilight I have broken into your slumber A song to sing you goodnight In the corner of the room I stand gazing and bright I compose you this sonnet And hazard the vagaries of half-light With a conductor’s staff in my hand And the drummer’s rhythm in my heart I have danced into your dream world A song to tremble through the night Where is my powered wig? Delightful and erotic Where is my nightshade tea? Belladonna warming the night With a string section in my pocket And the brass by my side I have entered into your conscience A song to play through the night In the corner of the room I stand gazing and bright I compose you this overture Wishing you well, cutting through darkness, My illuminating stars that will penetrate your repose I see you! Good Night!

Pluck You Is Fantastic 04:00
lyrics
What is your favorite kind of paper money? And where will you dress in a gown like that? How often do you point and laugh at others on the train? Well my car is better than your ugly house and everything that you have ever owned! And what is your dream for the future of plastics? Where will you find your next source of magic? How many love affairs can one have with a water pistol? that is filled with rock salt to impress a girl like Jodie Foster! Chorus Look at me, look at me changing in the green room Oh just look at me! and ask me about me (just ask me about me) In the kitchen and on the computer screen Come on and touch me I will pluck you fantastic for love Who is your favorite bucolic poet? When will you sharpen your pocket knife? How many dictionaries have you used to write love letters? For everyone who had ever bought you presents and fresh flowers from 7eleven or someone else’s grave? Chorus (once) No one, no one loves you more than Jesus but he is busy watching television No one, no one loves me more and not anymore and never again Chorus (twice)

Loretta (A Toast, Slightly Burnt, to You) 02:28
lyrics
Don’t die, It’s not very healthy! Don’t die, who will pay the rent? Don’t die, your mother will find your filthy movies! Don’t die, who will buy me beverages? See (See) how important you are? See (See) just what you mean! See (See) someone needs you! It’s (It’s) much too hard to shoplift all alone! Don’t die, whose clothes will I borrow? Don’t die, whose test will I cheat from? Don’t die, we need to see Grace Jones! Don’t die, It’s really quite selfish See (See) how important you are? See (See) just what you mean! See (See) someone needs you! It’s much too hard to shoplift all alone! <<Music Break>> Just go on You Tube Watch a video of someone Singing cover songs and then you will feel so much better! Don’t die, how will we scare neighbors? Don’t die, It will be hard to knock down strangers! Don’t die, who will punch the meanies? Don’t die, we need to laugh and point! We need to laugh and point! We need to laugh and point! Let’s point! Let’s laugh! At others!

Embrújame 03:06
lyrics
Júrame la magia (soy la bruja de tu corazón) Llévame al bosque (soy el vampiro en cada rincón) Déjame encantado (soy el mago en el balcón) Embrújame intoxicado (soy el veneno de tu pasión) ¿Cuántos hechizos has hecho? ¿Cuántas de cristal has leído? Lo sé que soy el delirio que intentas de capturar ¿Cómo inventas los ensalmos? ¿Cúando echas maldiciones? Me siento la locura que mezclas en calderas Júrame la magia (soy la bruja de tu corazón) Llévame al bosque (soy el vampiro en cada rincón) Déjame encantado (soy el mago en el balcón) Embrújame intoxicado (soy el veneno de tu pasión) La culpa no es mía por la belleza que me dieron los Dioses La responsibilidad no me pertenece, sino los padres que me hicieron Con toda la magia que tienes, el encantado de vudu me haces Júrame la magia (soy la bruja de tu corazón) Llévame al bosque (soy el vampiro en cada rincón) Déjame encantado (soy el mago en el balcón) Embrújame intoxicado (soy el veneno de tu pasión)

Have You Lost Again, Candide? 02:44
lyrics
This ship is sinking the ground is shaking And now a flogging There is no way to escape Chorus Another series of unfortunate happenings The clouds have brought the storm all grey Another collection of disappointment Will it work out in the end? Dr. Pangloss has lost me This life has gotten extreme I can’t find my Cunégonde Martin, help me escape Chorus 1 X Have you lost? Have you lost again? Have you lost again, Candide? Will you get it all back? Chorus 1 X

C’est la nuit de quelque chose de magnifique, tres exceptionelle C’est la nuit de quelque chose de magique, tres amusant Je voudrais parler avec Tante Georgette Je voudrais danser avec Mireille Mais, la chose que j’aime beaucoup C’est un plat de la tete de veau C’est la nuit de quelque chose de fantatisque, tres interessant Je voudrais parler avec Tante Georgette Je voudrais danser avec Mireille Mais, la chose que j’aime beaucoup C’est un plat de la tete de veau Ou est Marie -Laure ce soir? Ou est Robert avec ses complexes? Ou est l'homme en noir ce soir? Je voudrais parler avec Tante Georgette Je voudrais danser avec Mireille Mais, la chose que j’aime beaucoup C’est un plat de la tete de veau

The Dilemma of Devereaux 04:21
lyrics
I am gorgeous, you can see my blinding beauty And In a day or two, you will have your vision back I am lovely, never alone on a Saturday night My bedroom is never cold, not cold like Dorothy’s I am gorgeous, you will give me your telephone number You will call me and I may not answer right away The pressure of wondering if I will respond Is what you need so that your wife will never know All my friends are jealous of my ability All my friends wish they had my popularity Chorus They are giving me the eye, they always look at me with lust When I walk in a room it is a curse and a blessing They always want the prettiest to add to their little black books Stalking me at night and watching me undressing It’s just so tragic to be this stunning I am gorgeous, you can tell by appearance In crowded room, you will fight to talk to me I am the most delicate out of everyone in Miami No one ever would chose anyone over me All my friends are jealous of my ability All my friends wish they had my popularity Chorus 2X

Everything Is Ruined 03:03
lyrics
You always take my things and you break them You always take my thoughts and rip them apart You always take my things and you break them You always take my dreams and smash them apart Everything is broken and ruined now Everything has been taken, taken from my heart Everything is frozen and ripped to pieces I am left with nothing, nothing at all You always take my things and you break them You always take my thoughts and rip them apart You always take my things and you break them You always take my dreams and smash them apart Everything has been dissected and left wasted Everything is spoiled and so full of mistrust Everything has been stripped and remains barren I am left with nothing, nothing at all You always take my things and you break them You always take my thoughts and rip them apart You always take my things and you break them You always take my dreams and smash them apart Everything is ruined, it will never be the same again Everything is ruined, it will never be the same again Everything is ruined, it will never be the same again
