Lyrics: 
When I get my shit together
I’ll be a force to reckon with
Possessor of self discipline
Not dreaming the day away

When I walk, a destination
Will be a part of my equation
A to B trajectory
Not wandering place to place

It’s like I’m in a velvet painting
Crying clowns and naked ladies
Children praying they don’t go to hell

Dark and lush and oh my gosh
You could just get lost
Every desire is for sale

Sometimes the leash is so light, I forget that I’m a dog
Just trying to get along

I have heard but can’t believe
A billionaire can fall sleep
Reclining on a golden heap
While others waste away

When i can get out of bed
I’ll filter out the walking dead
Repeat the mantra in my head
“To others, do what pays”

Don’t be so melodramatic
It’s just a semi automatic
Anyone can get one down the street

Glory to the CEOs
Never mind the Holy Ghost
Everybody get down on your knees

Sometimes the leash is so light, I forget that I’m a dog
Just trying to get along
Just trying to get along

Velvet Paintings

Lyrics:
You’ve got something to give me
And I want to take it
After the curfew sirens
Meet me on the pavement

Don’t get caught in the streetlights
Kamikaze wings ablaze
Where a thousand tiny angels
Spiral gracefully to their graves

Trepidatious celebrations
I better make a wish
Goodness gracious, I’m just glad you’re here for this
Trepidatious Celebrations

You hand me a birthday present
Wrapped in obituaries
I tear into it with a violence
That makes you laugh hysterically

But the candlelight is fleeting
It’s as bright tonight as will ever be
And a thousand tiny angels
Wait faithfully for me

Trepidatious celebrations
I better make a wish
Goodness gracious, I’m just glad you’re here
for this Trepidatious Celebration

Trepidatious Celebrations

Lyrics:
I'm tethered to you
Like a starling to a starling
I think I’m hypno-magnetized

The dark is looming
Won’t you do se do me darling?
Dance me through the twilight sky

Hallelujah
Sing the steeples that we pass
Then we dive down deep and we hear the gutters gasp

Hallelujah
Sing the scrapers in the sky
And we never catch a penny, but we try

With you
I fly wild

My synchro-mystery
I have no existory
Before reflected in your eye

Whether near or farling
My heart’s a tethered starling
Dancing in the twilight sky

Hallelujah
Sing the maples that we pass
Then we dive down deep and we nearly meet the grass

Hallelujah
Cry the wiley satellites,
And we never catch a comet, but we try

With you
I fly wild

Starling to a Starling

Starling To A Starling

Lyrics: 
I won’t call you the moon
When every morning it goes away
I will not compare you to a flower’s bloom
A moment’s glory only to fade

I won’t call you a diamond
To be lost or stolen from me
Nor the taste of nectar sweet upon my lips
To thrill so briefly then disappear

To me you are a sonnet for my soul to dance within
In this way we will never be apart
A song that I’ve waited all my life so desperately to hear
Only to find that I knew all the words by heart

May the tears of sorrow flowing from my eyes
Now that I can’t feel your hand in mine
Be dried up like the autumn leaves and swept away
Across the prairie sands of time

To me you are a sonnet for my soul to dance within
In this way we will never be apart
A song that I’ve waited all my life so desperately to hear
Only to find that I knew all the words by heart

Lyrics: 
Remember when we used to smoke out by the BFI?
Sitting on a chesterfield just left outside to die
A crooked bedside table and a lamp with one good eye
It looked just like a talk show that’s on very late at night

You lived in the housing complex right across the lane
It seemed like a police car was called there everyday
Sometimes there’d be bottles we’d exchange for Beaujolais
Then interview each other with a rolled up Chatelaine

What brings you here this fine evening?
Grab a seat and watch the world explode
How can anyone be sleeping?
Welcome to the Insomniac Show

We were insubordinate humanitarians
With revolutionary plans to stick it to the man
Now i’m selling real estate and knock-off Melvin Kleins
Did you once say you loved me out beside the BFI?

What brings you here this fine evening?
Grab a seat and watch the world explode
How can anyone be sleeping?
Welcome to the Insomniac Show

Lyrics: 
I’ve been hearing the strangest things
Not the wind through the trembling leaves
On the long walk home in the evening
I’ve been hearing the strangest things

I keep spinning to see whose there
Mournful notes I can nearly hear
And I feel it breathing in my ear
I keep spinning to see whose there

There are stories in the trees
Every ring a memory
It’s like they’re trying to find the words
Something’s stirring in the woods

Start to laugh uneasily
When I get to my property
Have a crazy feeling that it owns me
Laugh a bit uneasily

There are stories in the trees
Every ring a memory
It’s like they’re trying to find the words
Something’s stirring in the woods

If we only understood

In the Woods

In The Woods

Lyrics:
We got married on our first date
Drive through consummation by midnight
No more left being all alone 
Making out with the telephone

Fell in love between fries and rings
You said let’s have everything at the same time
All at once we were peeling out
Exclaiming our wedding vows

Found a fast romantic 
In a Dollarama aisle
Rows of shiny plastic
And your Dalai Lama smile

Landed in a Cul-de-sac encircling a Tamarack 
Who charmed a High and oh-so-Lonesome urban planner
Guarded from all thoroughfares, a dead end loop around and there 
He left her with a showy last-one-standing banner

We just paid to reserve our graves
Duplex discount at the Bargain Boneyard
Ended up scoring 2 for 1 
Isn’t life a phenomenon?

Found a fast romantic 
In a Dollarama aisle
Rows of shiny plastic
And your Dalai Lama smile

Found the last romantic 
In a Dollarama aisle
Rows of shiny plastic
And your Dalai Lama smile

Fast Romantics
