Lyrics:
In this hive
I survive
With my bees.
You’re the thing
That I sting
When I please.
What if this
Played itself out
Exactly as I feared?
I’ll save that
For when I’m old
And I’ve got birds nesting in my beard…

Lyrics:
Later in the evening, and I heard sirens all around.
Then I get up this morning, Seabrook Plant had melted down.
I turned on my radio, they told me “this is not a test.”
“You’ll most likely be a mutant by the morning but we wish…

Lyrics:
The list of things I meant to do
Is hidden somewhere safe
In a drawer or in my shoe
Where I know it won’t escape.
The list of things I meant to be
In a box beside my bed
That I don’t open up to see.
I don’t want that in my…

Lyrics:
Well I might forgive or I might forget you
But this time, baby, I ain’t gonna let you
Be bringing me down and treat me so unkind.
You know it’s a shame we never made it
But there ain’t no way we could ever recreate it
Something…

Lyrics:
I was walking down the street
Looking for a place to eat
When I saw a legless man praying for lost souls.
He had Electric Jesus on a tape recorder
And every time he played it the tape got shorter
Until all that was left was the…

I want your soul.
I want your soul.

I want your soul.
I want your soul.
I want your soul.
I want your soul.

Lyrics:
Christmas time is coming,
You can tell by the snow.
But before you go shopping
I just want you to know.
This might sound funny
But I’m being sincere.
Please just give me money
So I can get what I want this year.
I’ve got…

Lyrics:
Thank you for the Christmas present.
I appreciate the gift.
And I’ll be sure to thank you more
Once I find out what it is.
The wrapping paper’s laminated
In about three rolls of tape.
I understand it’s in your plan
To see these…

Lyrics:
How much will it cost to mail this fruitcake?
The one that I have baked with so much care.
Tell me, what’s the postal rate, and how long will it take,
And will it still be fresh when it gets there?
I stayed up all night just…

Lyrics:
What’s the deal with egg nog,
Why can’t I find it all year long?
If I can get milk and I can get eggs,
And I can find myself a steady supply of nutmeg,
Why can’t I find my favorite beverage
Except from around Thanksgiving until…

Here is my gift for you...

Lyrics:
Eat your Thanksgiving turkey then Black Friday comes,
Let the corporate oppressors rejoice.
Time to ring up astronomical sums…
Trim up your tree, deck out your halls…
Bring all of your credit cards down to the malls…
You need…

Lyrics:
If only you’d come home for Christmas
I wouldn’t have to be alone this Christmas
With someone to call my own
At Christmas time this year.
You know it seems like every Christmas season
That you are either gone or you are leaving…

Lyrics:
By now the Christmas spirit’s soaring.
Give me presents or I’ll throw a fit.
The baby Jesus story’s boring.
Let’s put the X into it…
Let’s put the X into X-Mas.
After all, it’s all about the gifts.
I want a gold plated Lexus…

Lyrics:
Well I gave at the office
And I gave at the store.
I gave to lost children
Then I gave some more.
But the joy of the season has turned into hell.
If I gave you a thousand dollars
Would you stop ringing that bell?
I gave to…

Okay, this is the "finished" version...

I’ve been meaning to get drunk and try to forget you.
Instead, I’m finding new ways to just upset you.
Baby, I just can’t stay in my mind,
Unintended and unsung, just like all the bad bad…

Well I get up this morning
And I seen my bluebird gone.
Well I get up this morning
And I seen my bluebird gone.
My garden’s full of weevils
And there’s vultures on my lawn.

Lyrics:
Love is a mild catatonia
When you suspend your disbelief.
It can beat you down, it’s like pneumonia.
It’s something you catch and don’t release.
It’s a debt without restitution,
A series of rules that you must break.

Lyrics:
Well you know everything is changing, you can’t tell which way to go.
It’s just booze, guns, and acid, and one huge pile of blow.
I gotta make some corrections, it’s not hard to see.
Maybe find myself a holy man to take this devil…
