Smooth Ride to D-Town (Williams/Wilson)
I'm heading on down to D-Town
I've got no time to stop
I've got to rebound after your heart
I need a cardboard kiss to keep moving
Like a turpentine cat she's so soothing
and a whiplash taxicab screaming
to the roadkill cannibal's dreaming
and I'm standing with a handful of quarters
but the pony ride's out of order
and I need need need to hear you say
"Baby when you leave my heart just decays,
my heart just decays"
On the edge of the world On the edge
I'm tripping at the lipsync karaoke
Shrapnel spitting out of your stereo
a doomsday impresario
I'm kicking sand at the Taliban
I'm chillin' with the one arm bandits
and the loose lip sinking bottle-ships
Flames shooting out of your fingertips
I need need need to hear you say
"Baby when you leave my heart just decays,
my heart just decays."
On the edge of the world On the edge

Shithawks (Williams/Wilson)
I saw you shimmy and shake
like a black mambo snake
I want to take your love
Evaporate to escape
Carve your name in my arm
Hang yourself from the barn
You came up with the cash
but someone else bought the farm
My baby said something cute
but no-one heard what she said
She’s hiding all of her treasures
in a hole in her head
Blame it all on me
Bury yourself at sea
We will haunt this ghost town
‘til the next century
The Shithawks come out singing
To the back of the line
Well the good times keep on bringing
What’s in the back of your mind.
My thoughts are casting shadows
while we’re out on the tiles
Hieroglyphic handshake
and the serpentine smile
Hand me down hand-out
oh yeah well that’s for sure
I got the disease for free
well 50 bucks for the cure
She’s dancing out in the rain
Honey please pave my brain
All the melodies change
but the song’s the same.
The Shithawks come out singing
To the back of the line
Well the good times keep on bringing
What’s in the back of your mind.

I Don’t Mind (Williams/Wilson)
I’ve got time to waste with you
To waste with you
I don’t mind
Lying on my back in the sunshine
Down by the river
And I don’t mind
Bouncing off the power-lines
Exploding like a landmine
It’s alright
To cut that cord with a knife
Oh the honey haze of life
And I’ve got time to waste with you
To waste with you
I don’t mind if it carries you home
It’s okay
To sleep all day in decay
Oh it’s ok
It’s alright
The night caves in
I share your skin
Oh the night caves in
You get your way
But it’s not the way that you expected
You opened your heart and it got infected
I don’t mind if it carries you home
I don’t mind if it carries you home

Not Mobile (Williams)
There’s a light that you’re bleeding
From your skulls down to your toes
After hibernation I froze internally
There’s a fever out on the freeway
All my friends want a three-way
But that ain’t no combination to your heart
It’s too late she cremates me
Lovingly she hates me
Tongue tied and scouring through the dirt
The sun beats off the water
And I’m there with some-one's daughter
Whose mother never liked me anyhow
It was down at the black market fruit stand
Where I met my true love at the end
And all our long dead thoughts just borrowed brains
We are rats from a sinking ship
With opposable thumbs and hands that strip
The stars from the sky I will hand them back to you
Beneath the satellites
We can stay for a while
Until they sound the alarm
Your God is not mobile
Your God is not mobile

Ballad of the Black Keys (Williams)
Is everything made of summer skin
Sink or swim nature’s gonna win
Wrap me up in cellophane
And tell me now how you don’t feel the same
I’m heading off to a happy hunting ground
Some sort of love is measured out in pounds
Scream my name ‘cause I forget again
Oh I forget again
Holy shit where did we go wrong
You came up short I came up with this song
Singing out ‘til the end
And a rain will come and wash us clean again
The coma clouds have all but disappeared
Give us a sign something crystal clear
Life’s a sign we can’t read
Well we sowed our seeds
And there’s still mouths to feed
I climb climb climb your lattice work bones
At the top of the stairs
Screaming Hallelujah
Have we forgotten our prayers
Shaping up to get down
Get down on the ground
Nothing here’s sacred anymore
You turn to dust just like a dinosaur

Sleeping Like a Rat (Williams)
You shouldn’t go out alone
You never go out alone
Sleeping like a rat
Under this mountain’s back
All of the people have fled
And we were left for dead
We’ll have another round
As the shit goes down
Fell awake out of sleep
Through the dark we creep
Open the shutters at dawn
We shuttered all night long
I sank into your eyes
After the ship capsized
Polyester people
Pull the wool from their eyes
Stare into the sun
After the trouble’s begun
You wanna stay all night
We’re gonna stay all night
We’ll arm the gorgeous in time
Rob the ugly blind
A little slight of hand
Call it the progress of man
All of a sudden it dawned
Upon this dynamite pond
I’m gonna wrap you in leaves
Watch the forest breathe
You shouldn’t go out alone
You never go out alone
I’m sleeping like a rat
under this mountain’s back

Torch (Williams)
Follow your man
Down to the sand
Forget about tomorrow
It was just a plan
Wake up Sunday
Swinging from a star
Ragged restless
Don’t know where you are
Collar your days
Before they run away
Running through the foothills
Equestrian parade
Wake up summer
Washed upon your shore
Your heart bleeding
Beating at my door
Return this world to my girl
Return this world to my girl
We’ll torch this place
We’ll burn it down
We’ll torch this place
We’ll burn it down to the ground

Grizzly Coast (Wiliams)
On the coast in the wind
All the colours of your skin
As the morning fills our sails
As the morning fills our sails
In a dollhouse we built
On a cliff with chicken stilts
We don’t play like that no more
We don’t lay upon the shore
In the spring petals hail
On a beach with homeless whales
Hear the lonesome boardwalk moan
We will never bathe alone
Abalone sea shell eyes
Climb beneath the crimson tides
On a holiday we roam
Stop the taps unplug the phone
We ain’t never coming home
We ain’t never coming home

Buzzard Banjo (Williams)
It’s that buzzard banjo claw-hammer style
Hear me coming from a country mile
Broken boughs and broken bones
Kiss my gal and ship my body home
It’s that buzzard banjo claw-hammer style
Come on baby roll me over a while
Some will whisper in your ear
Shake that booty and drink your beer
Roll through town like a hurricane
“Lord that horse it done gone lame”
Pull the cord jump out of the plane
We ain’t never coming back here again
It’s that buzzard banjo claw-hammer style
Come on baby roll me over a while
Whether shootin’ the shit or chewing the fat
Fist fighting down at the laundromat
She tastes like a peach and she prowls like a cat
Beats my heart with a baseball bat
I was talking to God on a staticky phone
I guess the devil’s gonna be my chaperon
Just crawled out of a bottle of Patron
Kiss my gal and ship my body home
It’s that buzzard banjo claw-hammer style
Come on baby roll me over a while

Deader Than Heaven (Williams/Wilson)
Oh yeah, oh right
Deader than heaven on a Friday night
Call me polluted, call me what you like
Won’t make it home until the morning light
Deader than heaven on a Friday night
Knife fight beneath the silver bridge, all right
Sleeping in a broken fridge, out of sight
Deader than heaven on a Friday night
The rain comes down
Like Chinese torture and confetti on the ground
Your arms stretch out like two machetes ‘round this town
Our spirits minish this fair city tonight
Dancers with cancer make me feel alright
Back alley real estate and neon lights
Will heaven hold the homeless out of sight
Dance with the devil in the pale moonlight
Deader than heaven on a Friday night

Something to Say (Williams)
We scrape together
The weather patterns they change
Our blood is thicker than honey
Take the wheel
Our favourite topic is nothing
Nothing at all
My baby left me yesterday
I only wish you had something
Something to say
My waking life is wasting
Wasting away
She’s in a coma
My terratoma, my love
She keeps me guessing every day
Her lips are burning
Skin is falling away
The world is turning to an ashtray
I only wish she had something
Something to say
My waking life is wasting
Wasting away
A sharp incision
Decision with no consequence
Our battered ego running away
Are former lovers
Strangers waving hello
Life gives you knives
You gotta cut somebody you know
I only wish you had something
Something to say
My waking life is wasting
Wasting away
Bathe us in ashes
Eyelashes melting away
Sooner or later we’re all carried away
Your lips are burning
Skin is falling away
The world is turning to an ice tray
I only wish you had something
Something to say
Backwash mindsets kill your TV sets
Oh yeah alright oh yeah OK
Something to say

Birds of a Feather (Williams/Wilson)
Mind yourself whether or not
The boat starts to rock
The sun has been blocked out and we’re on our way
Back to the dock
Birds of a feather they flock on the shore
Where we were born
Under the storm
Mind your way home through the dark
Stars start to spark
Dogs bark and rain covered angels take heed
Love is a seed
Planted out of necessity
A stubborn demand
Misunderstanding
Mind the light shining on you
Ultraviolet blue burning through
All that we’ve hidden away
Schizophrenic days
Drink lemonade and then join the parade
Marching away
Marching away
