The Girl That Didn't Want to Think
Relapse
Susan A.
Went away
And when she came back my teeth hurt
Maybe if I didn’t act that way.
At her birthday,
she was somewhere less than eight.
Kissin’ Katie behind the easy chair (kindergarten)
In first grade, still less than eight.
Derision caused me to Deny.
A couple of years went by.
It was long ago.
What would be the point anyway
I can’t start from scratch
Back to Calendar Girl in the second grade.
When I saw you my heart stopped.
It took me two or three years to get to you
And when I did it was a failure
I saw it right away, in the second grad
No one else saw it till High School
In the Fourth or Fifth Grade
Shortly after turning eight
You asked me to spell your name
But by the sixth grade it was too late
There was a new girl in town
She had short curly hair.
It was orange or red
She wasn’t you but she wasn’t bad.
My vain attempt of course was no attempt at all
I was too scarred from the handwriting sample
Not too strong and in the mean time there were brunettes all about me
I swear I was just dumb, didn’t realize the game
And besides I saw a new redhead.
Later on when we were driving cars
As you were getting down at the red light
Just like your hair it was spinning ‘round
In the safety of your car in the middle of town
Just like Nikki and Melissa C.
The girls who came to me to ask if I was . . .
But for you I was, but for no one else that you would be asking for
But that’s the game when you’re in 6th or 10th grade
And the thing never ever works out
It seems likes it only when no messenger is sent that it’s really meant to happen.
But you got too shy and so did I, and didn’t know how to get to ….
Even though you were almost as strange and you talked to me more than any other . . .
Always too shy with low self-esteem, I thought I was worthless.
It only started to end with the final redhead.
She hugged me every-single-day.
I denied Katie, lied about Valerie, never went for Margarite, where are they now?
Just like A.K and the girl who looked my way.
I looked away and now she’s married.
Every K.T gettin’ married.
Like life you’re a necessary curse
There’s no reason why this should work
I do everything in your name and you twinkle your eyelashes at me.
Et all It all had to happen to me
You’ve given me everything.
Chlamydia.
Take this powder and you’ll feel much better.
I’m almost a man
I’m a good gullible
My heart is like lead
My hands are trembling
How are you feeling?
(Chorus)
It always strikes on impact like Shakespeare’s kill
There could never be lies
The victim always dies
You did this to me and almost didn’t admit it.
(Chorus)
I’ll take one for the team
I’ve got low self-esteem
Not here. Incompetence swilling. As is. Knowing what we’re worth, while we’re not worth it. Verbal Bludgeon just to get one grain.
Glenda?
You and me
sitting on a park bench.
We’ll be one.
Glenda?
Not here. Occupied boredom. Resident Opponents. Dead Rat Stench. Stopping and Starting. If I have to spend another minute here…
Glenda.
You and me
Sitting on a park bench
We’ll be one
We’ll play a card game
Holding hands
Walking in the park
Together everyday
Brushing our teeth
Sharing a bed
Watchin’ the TV
Making dinner for you when you get home.
Glenda?
The girl that didn't want to think yeah
idle hands are the devil's best friend
not emptiness but distracted at least
time alone's no good
the girl who didn't want to think
the girl who didn't want to think yeah
I can take your mind off for a while
You won't even find the time to ponder
You'll rely on instinct
the girl who didn't want to think
the girl who didn't want to think yeah
time alone won't be a problem anymore
I'll hire some goons to take care of you
so be a good girl
the girl who didn't want to think
the girl who didn't want to think yeah
you can't think much when you’re screaming
I'll keep your mind off all the good things
just you and me
the girl who didn't want to think
the girl who didn't want to think
when you pass out you're only dreaming
when you're worn out I'll make it quick
Your time is short
the girl who didn't want to think
the girl who didn't want to think
You're sore, you're tired and you want to go home
just one more time and then I'll let you go
I promise.
The Better Bobby
Everybody love you baby
Everyone wants to see you naked
Beatrice, Picasso
Everyone’s an asshole
You all got to see this lady
Should never be afraid of everyone
Never be scared of anyplace
Out of the depths of what you think is bad, comes out the greatest chance you never had.
Pursed lips
Lean back
Big smile
Make you laugh
Learn to love
Next in line
Say it feels good
But you had to laugh
We’re all interested in you baby
They’ all want a piece of you lady
One more time to declare you fine
Everyone’s attracted to you baby
Should never be frightened of anyone
Can’t look kindly on being scared of the chase
New Eldorado Baby
Your never gonna want to party again.
Long legs
Modern jazz
You can love this cripple if you want
How can I emote?
What does it mean?
Maybe inevitable
You can love me
Get it over with or stretch it out
My imagination has go the clout
My history backs whimsy up
Cinematic moments all lined up
I’m on a streak
Don’t mess it up
Love don’t really add up to much
Pursed lips
Big smile
Make you laugh
For a little while
I won’t acquiesce
I’m taking you to task
Don’t feel the same way
But you gotta laugh
It’s all just a game
We’re all playin’ games
We’re all in the game
To build a better Bobby
To be a better Bobby.
Possessive
Don’t want no one to touch your skin
Don’t want no one to come in
Don’t want this Costello sin
Maybe it won’t last
Don’t want no one to touch your skin
Don’t want no on to come in
This is my Costello sin
Maybe just half
(repeat)
Every time no fail and it’s a shame
My and everyone’s tastes the same
Tis my imagination so dam lame
Will it ever stop
Chance of torture or to fulfill
Cold-blooded plan – cold blood spill
Keep it alive or should it be killed
I can’t stop
Give you shelter to lay your head
Maybe just to lay in your bed
Just enough for me not to wish I was dead
You keep me alive
Calculated risk roll the dice
Will you be yourself or will you be nice
Just this new experience would suffice
Is that so wrong
I’ve never strayed
I’ve never died
Inept Collusion
Skins Collide
I’ve never taken
Such a chance
Slimy risks
Of new romance
Don’t want no one to touch your skin
Don’t want no on to come in
This is my Costello sin
Maybe just half
Don’t want no one to touch your skin
Don’t want no one to come in
Don’t want this Costello sin
Maybe it won’t last.
Taffy
Anxious when I unwrap the package
Soak in the vision, Miracle Candy
Savor the Flavor, start in slowly
Tiny tastes, Saltwater Taffy
Investigate further, sweet and salty
Delectable torture, Delicious candy
Taffy
Sweet Pain tastes sweet and musty
Keep my delight under control, I’m suckin' on Taffy
In my dreams I’m eating taffy
Tasting firm but soft and sticky
Every Flavor all so tasty
Tasting Taffy sticky sweet
Taffy
Life is good when I smell taffy
Smile on my face, curdling tummy
Dark and beautiful perfect candy
Touch and taste only when I’m dreamin’
Everybody here wants some taffy
rare and probably pricey
No matter what your favorite candy
When she shows up, you love Taffy
My favorite shape of luscious taffy
Stand straight up and jut where taffy gets curvy
Plan a surprise, Show Taffy
If her mouth opens that wide its gotta be good.
Taffy
Laughy Taffy, get over me
I’m not like you, I ain’t candy
Don’t rub it in, I wish I could be
But it don’t mean you don’t have to eat me.
Connivin' girl don’t , understand me
I’ve just gotta be under taffy
I guess I can take this, French Marie
Just to get Taffy, under me.
Laughy Taffy, get into me
I gotta get some, reciprocity
If you gotta rub it in, I can’t stop thee
Spread Sticky Taffy all over me
Taffy

Love is sweet when it’s not of this world
When I get to meet a cinematic girl – she’s so
Beautiful I think I’m gonna hurl – and I know
She aint gonna pay attention to me – but she does
And I’m so ecstatic-able –as long as
This girl keeps on talking to me– I know
Life is sweet when I’m not in the world – that’s because
My world is her, everything else is a blur – but I don’t
Think she actually wants me
She might be my favorite girl
Its too bad she don’t want me
She might be the most wonderful girl
Oh well she don’t want me
She’s gotta be my favorite girl
Oh, she makes me so happy
I wanna die
So happy
She may be my favorite girl
So fine but she don’t want me
She may be the most beautiful girl
She makes me so happy
She’s gotta be my favorite girl
Yeah, she makes me so happy
I wanna die
So happy
I wanna die
She makes me so happy
I wanna die but I can’t cause I don’t have a knife
I stay awake each and every single night
I wanna die but I don’t have a noose
You know I’m working hard, baby I’m worth a deuce
I wanna die but I don’t have a rope
I don’t have any means to cope
I wanna die but I don’t got no pills
I wanna get dead – who do I have to kill
I wanna die but I don’t have a gun
I’m just not satisfied – no fun
I don’t wanna go to the beach
