This is the place for us
(forgetting together…)
Draw your new face for us
(forgetting together…)
I’m so glad I found you here
(forgetting together…)
Glad that you found me here
(forgetting together…)
You didn’t ask me where I was going
tonight
Weaving like a single
(forgetting together…)
Closer to the stage
(forget WE’RE together…)
Time to run, make it now
It’s not gonna show anyhow..
Tonight
Neurotoxins in our throats
It’s a little to swallow
A mild Neurotoxin that’ll do the trick
Distilled for your pleasure.
Neurotoxins in our throats
It’s a little to swallow
A mild Neurotoxin that’ll do the trick
Forgetting together.

It’s your last few minutes here with me
13 drips in that IV
10 whole minutes til you’re free
SIT BACK – RELAX-
6 odd minutes flatline time
4 whole minutes should be fine
now’s the minute maid you’ve been
waiting for
get on the floor
and get in it
Get on the plane to Heaven
Get on the plane to Heaven
Get on the plane to Heaven
Get on the plane to Heaven
Get on the plane
I hesitate to mention it
Get on the plane
I never should have mentioned it.
Get on the plane
Is anybody out there?
Get on the plane
Is anybody o---ut th----ere?

The parrot squawks by the Coke machine
Don't make me get short

It’s a discount siesta
Green called in, here come July
Ne-ver turn off the hi-fi
Poolside pups clutch magazines
It’s a Patchwork fiesta
Get on the plane to Heaven

Toys in the trash
It’s just a simple fact
He never would have told you but
He's never coming back
Toys in the trash
It’s just a simple fact
She never would have told you but
She's never coming back
used to have a magic wand
One day it was nowhere- gone
Somebody tossed it in the trash.
My magic wand, reduced to ash
How would he feel?
How would I feel?
How would she feel?
How would she feel?
How would she feel?
Toys in the trash
It's like a heart attack
She never would have told you but
She's never coming back
It can be fun to throw stuff away.
Recycle your dread with a satisfying thud.
Kaillou’s electronic voice from inside the
trashcan.

I got on your case one time.
I got on your case 2000 times.
The things are pushing us apart it's the
things that are pushing us apart.
How would he feel?
How would I feel?

PERFORMED BY SONNY VENEER
What became of you, Virginia?
What became of our child?
When I set off for Virginia
It was empty
When I made out for foreign shores
To make a million fortunes
When I came back into a war
The trauma burned me down
Croatoan
What became of you, Fallujah?
What became of my town?
When I walked back to Fallujah
It was empty as a crown.
When they dropped in from foreign shores
A diesel dazzle letdown
And the Veterans of Foreign Wars
The trauma burned me down
Croatoan
His brother is buried and his sister is
buried in the same graveyard
It's a lost away never go away
if it’s shown any sign of eating him alive
if it’s shown any sign of eating him alive
if it’s shown any sign of eating him alive
if it’s shown any sign of eating him alive
maroon
all it is dangerous getting dangerous

Look me in the eye
Hold that phone up high
Kneel kneel down and cry
people gettin hot
bill of rights is shot
what laws
what schemes
they’re gonna be revoking?
Cause you didn’t bother voting?
Look me in the eye
Look me in the eye
Your screens, my screens lie
we got hacked
getting fuckin sacked
what songs
what dreams
are gonna need rebooting?
But you didn’t hear the shooting
You write your obituary every day.
What will yours say?
What will yours say?
Look me in the eye
Hold that phone up high
Kneel kneel down and cry
people coming out
people start to shout
The hates
In the States
Their heart is still beating
Now the Eagle needs feeding
Don’t back down.

Slice me deep my darling
Bleed me dry to die another day
Punching blind in alleyways
We’re suspended to walk dirty streets
We’re gonna serve your renewal
On a silver salver
Yeah/ Do you find that hard to do?
Yeah /Do you find that hard to prove?
Cut away that gray tape
Stick a brand new tape inside your head
When you listen back
It shines
Like a new piece of trash
Worn down by life
And its lurching demands
Yeah/ Do you find that hard to do?
Yeah /Do you find that to prove?

Whenever you want me

The third night you’re wondering why
The next night they tell you you’re gonna

Josie lost her freedom
Cause she took it for granted

Deep in her mind it was planted.
Don’t trash my metaphors
It’s not so hard to believe
Get out the boltcutters, baby
Cause we all gotta leave

Mental Health Days
Copy the French and caravan
Drink with the Japanese
Big long American Workweek
Nonprofit future flees
Don’t take my word for it, no
It’s not so hard to conceive
Dust off those alibis, baby
Revive to achieve!

Hands off for the hyper kid
Hands on for the happy kid
Pencils down for the tired kid
Everyone save the governor’s kid
You don’t
even know

And now for the special kid
Lower down for the blacker kid
Wooden leg for the giant kid
Everyone likes the robot kid
You don’t
even know
Even know
Climb
in your mind
To a place
Back in time
And ship
As you skip
School and waste
All your time
All your time
Delay for the darker kid
Referral for the comfortable kid
Bag of chips for the jumpy kid
Wooden cross for the science kid
You don’t
even know
Even know
You don’t
even know
Even know
No school for the hungry kid
Plastic arm for the slower kid
Prescription ties for the wired kid
Everyone likes the quiet kid.
You don’t

Even know
You don’t

Even know
Climb
in your mind
To a place
Back in time
And ship
As you skip
School and waste

Too Worn Out to Get ( ) Up
© 2017 John Llewellyn,

PERFORMED BY SONNY VENEER
Too worn out to get fucked up.
It’s a lot of work, doing all the work.
I see rectangles, I stretch rectangles.
Disarray and distortion,
disarray and Sebastian
Put on the headphones and go into the
computer, make everything perfect.
I want to go into the sound,
I want to go into version 10, where I can
make everything perfect where I can make
everything perfect.
I want to go where everything is perfect
I can stretch time I'm stretching time the
simple wave of a pick.
Making more time
I want to make everything perfect.
Crumpled checks on the floor, cold wind
coming in the cracks around the door.
Recycling bin is full
everything I hear his bull.
I want to make everything perfect.
Too worn out to get fucked up.
It’s a lot of work, doing all the work.
I left my ego in the 20th century.
I want to make everything perfect. Perfect.
Plugging into USB, I see the end of
democracy.
Feedling into A+E I see the rise of
kleptocracy.
Won't you plug in with me? Won't you plug
in with me?
