Maybe we should walk away
We’ve got so far to go
And oftentimes it’s slow, certainly
But if we were to walk away
Man we’d never know
If we had made a mistake
So don’t, don’t get sad cause you have me and I have you
Don’t, don’t get sad cause you have me and I have you
We only just begun
And we’re not done
We are never done
This, this is our year
So let me be clear about
What we’re about
So don’t, don’t get sad cause you have me and I have you
Don’t, don’t get sad cause you have me and I have you
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

TAPE 2 - Burgers in Hell
03:29
|

I wonder what the menu is
In Lucifer’s eatery
Does he have a good selection
Of low carb and calorie
Does he ask you want you want to drink
To complement your meal
Does he have a value menu or’s your soul
Part of the deal
There’s one thing in the death
I feel I must confess
All I want in hells a burger
With lots of cheese and no lettuce
I bet that hellfire
Cooks the meat just fine
And if I should expire brother
I can do the time
So if you die tomorrow
Cause today you’ve fallen ill
Make sure that Sir Devil has fired up his grill
And you will eat cheeseburgers for all eternity
Getting fat in Hell’s Kitchen
Bound and on your knees

TAPE 3 - She's a Ghost

She's a ghost
but she don't know it
She's a ghost
but she don't it
She comes in thru my walls
She gets in my bed
but I can't touch her
Cause she's dead
But not like a vampire
She's see thru
She tears like paper
She doesn't wear a sheet
like most ghosts do
She's a ghost
but she don't know it
She's a ghost
but she don't it
She's a ghost

Strangers have never been stranger man
And still I don’t see nothing wrong with it
As horror, turns to bravery
I find myself walking up to him
Hey I recognize that shirt
Hey old friend what’s going on?
Got me a wife, we’ll maybe have some kids
And hey, oh yeah, did you hear about him?
He went off to battle in some space age old rattling ship
Was never seen again
We should send some flowers to his kin, his family, maybe even his friends
His dog and dreams
I’m so sorry, I know he will be missed
I had some apprehension sending this
Cause it’s a little late, we’d thought you’d be pissed
Thinking that nobody gives a shit
He had so much to prove
We should have stood by him
Stranded up in space by his own sins
Oh Marguerite, you are looking thin
I made you some lasagna and some bread
Until somebody makes a stone statue for him
Just remember hon, we all loved him

Speculoos
Habitat
Only home dying
Earth is toast
Temperature
falling/rising
Speculoos
Only hope
Or we get the rope
Deep cuts in terrestrial crust
Find a home
Cause where
Outta space
Outta time
Outta air
Outta ideas
Speculoos
The Pendulum is slowing
Out of time
Outer space is calling
Belly up
All the fish are boiling
looking up
For some planetary calling
Speculoos
Adios
Packing up
Bring the seeds
Bring the brains
Bring your friends
The search begins
For a new life
Search it up
The Search goes
On and on and on and on and on
Buildings fall
Mountains fall
Statues fall
No winter or fall
Family’s fall
Markets fall
Appetites fall
No summer or fall
Kittens fall
Defenses fall
Missiles fall
Internet falls
Crust it falls
Mantle falls
Earths core falls
Everything falls
everything
Because we’re already dead
Because we smell like the end
This place is nice on its own
Let’s not fuck it up again
You got to bring one friend
And now it fucks with your head
Wonder how you’ll go on
Keeping the good wolf fed
New earth is so damn weird
The flowers here have ears
The rocks can move on their own
Maybe we leave them alone
Maybe you should go back to bed
It’s still a few parsecs ahead
I’ll wake you when my wires touch my metal toes
Someone has to stay up for us
When new Earth appears Ill be rust
Even if the atmosphere is favorable
To
Speculoos driving us thru outer space
Speculoos not enough to take your place
Speculoos driving us to our new place
Speculoos begging us to leave no trace
Use this time to go back to school
For 1000s of years we lived like fools
Then the crust broke open under our 10 toes
Promise they’ll be something to keep
And not just another sad repeat
Cultivate the land like it’s the last you’ll know

Once, once upon a time there was
An acorn hanging from a tree in the forest
It fell, and quickly sprung up from it’s shell
And now it is itself a tree in the forest
When I’m beat the world beats without me
When I’m beat the world beats without me
When I’m beat the world beats
You’ve got the heart You’ve got the brains but basically we stay the same
And wonder why were not moving
When I’m beat the world beats without me
When I’m beat the world beats without me
When I’m beat the world beats without me
When I’m beat the world beats without

He rakes his leaves with such disdain
He’s got a zillion thoughts shooting through his brains
His mom and dad don’t understand but they have hope for him
You see his smarts are fast past Mars
And in ten seconds he could probably solve the stars
But he has found this might not work to his advantage
So to hide from all the answers, he will keep his head on housework
Why does he have to be smart?
Why does he have to be smart?
Smarts choose you
Why does he have to be smart?
Why does he have to be smart?
Smarts choose you, that’s the difference
Wish he knew another genius for comparison
So to hide from all the answers, he will keep his head on housework
It’s so, it’s so, it’s so illogical

TAPE 8 - Android Boy
03:00

Let me be your android boy
Let me blink my lights and buzz you to sleep
Every night, every night
Don’t have blood or a heart
But somehow I love you and I miss you
When we’re apart, my lights go all dark
But you keep reminding me I’m science
But you keep reminding me I’m science
But you keep reminding me I’m science and not a real boy
Let me be your android boy
Let me sing to you your favorite album
Line for line and in perfect time
Don’t have skin or get goosebumps
But somehow I always get a shiver
When we touch, it doesn’t happen much
Cause you keep reminding me I’m science
Cause you keep reminding me I’m science
Cause you keep reminding me I’m science and not a real boy

Santa had an accident
on his sleigh, on xmas eve
and as it turns out
Rudolph was loaded
and they crash landed
into a mountain
Kids don't be sad Santa'll be here soon
I just saw his rocket ship
Flying past the moon
Santa saw a bright light
in the sky
than xmas eve
and as it turns out
they were aliens
out joyriding in their rockets ship
Kids don't be sad Santa'll be here soon
I just saw his rocket ship
Flying past the moon
Santa had an idea
with your rocket ship so bright
would you guide my sleigh tonight
they said sure man
on one condition
you deliver presents to the universe
Kids don't be sad Santa'll be here soon
I just saw his rocket ship
Flying past the moon

Sun up
Thing about the things that she’s supposed do
Dressed up
She’d go to the banks and wait all afternoon
It’s all nice
But she has got herself into a troubled mood
And I’m your friend
But I’m ain’t really sure I know what’s good for you
Cause life ain’t cornbread
Cause every time she’d think about the way she had to leave it she would cry
Cause she would cross the swamp
Just to sing to you
Moon up
Goes to bed the same for she is just a newt
Her pillow shakes
That is just her friends the earthworms on the move
I stand by
Knowing that this pain is killing her right through
I wish I could help you fix whatever’s going wrong with you
Cause every time she’d think about the way she had to leave it she would cry
Cause she would cross the swamp
Just to sing to you
