Crocodiles, Infantiles

Put my foot in my mouth once again
Offended somebody, a friend
A daily affair it's become
And it always gives me the shivers
Now don't you know what I've seen?
That people say things they don't mean (all the time)
So why are you hanging on words
When you know they don't always deliver?
But words are all we've got
To tell us we're something we're not
The meaning of which I know
It flows through me like a river
Crocodiles, they'll eat pancreas
Like Infantiles, they'll eat anything
Crocodiles, they'll eat lanky boys
And in a while, I'll be anything they say
I'm walking up the street
I'm hoping not to meet
The people I once hoped to find
And so like a snake I slither
Some live with doubt all the time
It happens to me in my mind
I know I'm going somewhere
But it better not take me forever
Crocodiles, they'll eat pancreas
Like Infantiles, they'll eat anything
Crocodiles, they'll eat lanky boys
And in a while, I'll be anything they say

Forward to the Rain

I look forward to the rain
Acidic as it may be
I look forward to explain
My reasons as they seep
Into me
When I met you
you were wet as a wipe
Cleaner still
I don't know why
I say goodbye
to my own hand
Neither had we
No coffee nor tea
And the floor was drenched
In honey
You are sweet but not
That sweet
(Ch.)
Piping
Cups of energy
I drank to your health
Silently
I did not speak
Distance
Made a difference
Distantly you spent your time
Now you're back
You're so lost
Since you tossed
Your sense of you
And who
You were to be
(Ch.)

Eastern way in the western world
Cleanse my day it's failing me
The tendency to show it all
Presents me to boast my fall
It's okay, the messenger
Has the blame, he's bailing me
Out of clutch, losing much
Losing such friends I trust
The freeze-framed finch finds
A worm which leaves my
Family's tree hungry
Mister sway the blessed girl
To my door, she's mailing me
Her fine line of clothes
She has two friends in tow
The freeze-framed finch finds
A worm which leaves my
Family's tree hungry
Eastern way in the western world
Cleanse my day it's failing me
The tendency to show it all
Presents me to boast my fall

Amsterdam Ring!

If I happen to melt
like butter
I can harden up again
When the heat is off
Also if I had the chance
I'd jump in the freeze
Sure it's cold in there
But I enjoy the breeze
But what if I was all spread out
Like a film?
Would you find me capable
in film form?
And would you find me acceptable
Hiding in the rain?
Sure I'm all wet
Just sane
If you have some coins for me
Let me hear the clink
I won't take it when
I don't know what it is
Unless it's some Amsterdam
Ring, ring ring!
Then I'll ride all day
Outside in the spring
...
Toying with a handsome man
On his day off
Is better than judging him
On his off day
Unless he's from Amsterdam's
Ring, ring, ring!
Then I'll judge his everything
Outside in the spring
When I say what's today
You say bye
And when I get emotionless
You begin to cry
And I levitate
Over to the bed
You'll never sleep in
Again
You'll probably move to Amsterdam's
Ring, ring, ring!
And you'll sleep all day
Outside in the spring
