Your Human Side

Written and performed by Michelle Foster and Tim Byrnes

Man stop your crying. Your life looks just fine to me.
Fire fire freezing weather someone thought to rub those sticks together.
Tell me what can I do for you?
Tell me brother why should I care about you?

You can't drink the water, but its fun when you glow
Like when gold on the railings and the banister glow
And I know you've been sick, but I don't think you'll die
Don't I look just fantastic in my red power tie.

Tell me what can I do for you?
Tell me sister why should I care about you?

I've built up buildings you've never seen.
Someone wrote Siddhartha  and put up the AR 15.

Man stop your crying. Your life looks just fine to me.
Fire fire freezing weather someone thought to rub those sticks together.

Tell me what can I do for you?
Tell me darling why should I care about you?

I've got a great mind and fantastic genes
And white men in robes at all my best scenes.
I'd try hard to listen, but they don't pay you to talk.
My dick is so heavy it drags when I walk.

Tell me what can I do for you?
Tell me sweetheart why should I care about you?

Someone built the Arc and now we're alive.
I built a kingdom and he built the Colt 45.

Man stop your crying. Your life looks just fine to me.
Fire fire freezing weather someone thought to rub those sticks together.
Tell me what can I do for you?
Tell me Hombre why should I care about you?

You mopped up the floors that were under my feet
And I'd give you a greeting, but you aren't worth a sheet.
I'd send you to college, but you know that's a scam.
No school could make you as great as I am.

Man stop your crying. Your life looks just fine to me.
Fire fire freezing weather someone thought to rub those sticks together.

Fire Stick

Written and performed by Michelle Foster and Tim Byrnes

I'm the queen of the borderlands
Head in the clouds and feet in the sands
My skirts get twisted from the groping hands
And my knuckles bleeding from giving reprimands

I wear boots when there is no mud
Thighs muscled heavy, but I look like a stud
I chew the fat like a cow chews cud
And the syllables hit you like a flood

I lean when I walk
I lead with one leg. I'm sober, but I sway
Listen up when I talk
I fumble when I beg. I forget how much I weigh

I play trumpet in the marching band.
Flash of brass, sound of thunder, part the seas of the football stands
I pucker my lips as I make demands
And part my golden hair with my tiny hands

I munch chilis and drink vinegar
Food full of garlic as a natural inhibitor
Vampire canines as I look at her
Form your fingers in a cross push it down like a minister

I lean when I walk
I lead with one leg. I'm sober, but I sway
Listen up when I talk
I fumble when I beg. I forget how much I weigh

I'm the one who's spoken
The bluebird whose wings are broken,
But I'm I'm i'm I'm hoping
That my my my my my minds just joking

Listen up to the words I'm stuttering
There's a grain of truth in the words I'm muttering
My brain's on fire, but I can't stop shuddering
In this cold cold cold cold gutter I'm in

I lean when I walk
I lead with one leg. I'm sober, but I sway
Listen up when I talk
I fumble when I beg. I forget how much I weigh

Can't understand a word you say to me

My Swagger

Lucky

If They Don't Love You They're Wrong

Written and performed by Michelle Foster and Tim Byrnes

You named me
Now lets waltz again
You're beholden to me
Silently I feel the same
I hold it
I break it down
I'll withhold it
I'll make no sound
So now name us a song, name us a song, name us a song that reminds me of you
But if I'm playing it wrong, playing it wrong, if I'm plating it wrong then we both stand to lose
So now say no more, say no more, but say no less
Lest I be left broken abused and fatherless
And broken, bruised and borrowed
Broken, bruised and borrowed
In a land where we're all forever young
I'll pick up pen and sword to hold down my tongue
And through the constant gnawing of aching bones
I'll feign no love and I'll feign no home
But if I'm naming it wrong, I'm naming it wrong if I'm naming it wrong then we both stand to lose
And we're left broken, bruised and borrowed
Broken bruised and borrowed

Thoughtful Goldfish
