When the starfruit fall into my room, when the starfruit drawn across the spoon, well my room smells sweet until the morning come. Well the words come out and they come back in, and they fight like gravity. And the starfruit's bound me to my chair When the starfruit fall into my soup, when the soup it drips down in my shoe, well my leg go limp until the morning come.

Camel Chase 04:45
She picked melons in the park we couldn't savour any He had informants on my home we can't escape him anymore She took a breath and then her seat, we couldn't save her Run, man, run for your life The sky is falling, and moisture coats the dust from my horse won't rise anymore Run, man, run for your life The bird calling, and royal cloth will drape the land and take us apart

It’s a simple template for disaster. It’s just a way to get there faster You know she’ll never show a scratch With all these secret buttons on the dash I’ll take her through the hills ‘til she explodes We’ll move through the city’s darkest roads The gods of infiltration smile upon us I’m not just here cause I am an Adonis And now I slowly go about my sabotage You have to know just how to play your cards There’s no point or time to check the odds Embraced inside but outwardly gone There’s no question now what I’m to do I’m loaded, silenced, made, it’s time to move The certain death is somehow so familiar The icy instincts of a practiced killer My eyes glaze over, the floor just drops away When I finally come to the mission’s made And now I disappear and push it all away My art will hide the darkness for another day

Chinese Maria was a girl on my street She wore these long stockings just above her feet Dios mio, man, it seems like just the other day Chinese Maria moved on down the way Chinese Maria what do you see, Looking through the windows in the gas factory? Chinese Maria was a girl on my street I guess you could say that she left her mark on me Even though we never really met, I knew her deepest secret Chinese Maria, well she wasn't really Chinese Chinese Maria was a girl on my street She was an artist and her medium was beef One bite on her enchilada, no confusion why Some fifteen hundred pound moo moo cow had to die

For attention, for a time For intensity, for a new life Sex. With a woman. I once had sex. With a woman. It was incredible. You should have been there.
