Pablo Honey: Track Listing

You

You are the sun and moon and stars are you
And I could never run away from you
You try at working out chaotic things
And why should I believe myself not you?
It's like the world is going to end so soon
And why should I believe myself?
You me and everything caught in the fire
I can see me drowning
Caught in the fire

Creep

When you were here before, couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel, your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You're so fucking special

But I 'm a creep, I 'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts, I want to have control
I want a perfect body, I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

She's running out again
She's running out ....

Run, run, run, rrrrrrrruuuuuuuuuuuuuun...
Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnn...

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special...

How Do You?

He's bitter and twisted, he knows what he wants
He wants to be loved and he wants to belong
He wants us to listen, he wants us to weep
He was a stupid baby who turned into a powerful freak
But how do you?
He lives with his mother, but we show him respect
He's a dangerous bigot, but we always forget
And he's just like his daddy
Because he cheats on his friends
And he steals and he bullies
Anyway that he can
But how do you?

Stop Whispering

And the wise man say I don't want to hear your voice
And the thin man say I don't want to hear your voice
But they're cursing me, and they won't let me be
And there's nothing to say, and there's nothing to do

Stop whispering, start shouting

And my mother say we don't love you son no more
And the buildings say we spit on your face somemore
And the feeling is, that there's something wrong
Cause I can't find the words and I can't find the songs.

Stop whispering. start shouting

Dear Sir, I have a complaint can't remember what it is
It doesn't matter anyway
(fuck you)

Thinking about you

Been thinking about you, your records are here
Your eyes are on my wall, your teeth are over there
But I'm still no one, and you're now a star
What do you care?
Been thinking about you, and there's no rest
Shit I still love you
Still see you in bed
But I'm playing with myself
And what do you care when the other men are far far better

All the things you got
All the things you need
Who bought your cigarettes?
Who bribed the company to come and see you honey?

Been thinking about you
So how can you sleep?
These people aren't your friends, they're paid to kiss your feet
They don't know what i know
And why should you care, when i'm not there

All the things you got
That you never need
All the things got
Are planning to bleed to please you
Been thinking about you

Anyone Can Play Guitar

Destiny, destiny protect me from the world
Destiny, hold my hand protect me from the world
Here we are with our running and confusion,
And I don't see no confusion anywhere..

And if the worm does turn
And if London burns
I'll be standing on the beach with my guitar
I wanna be in a band when I get to heaven
Anyone can play guitar
And they won't be a nothing anymore

Grow my hair, grow my hair I am Jim Morrison
Grow my hair, I wanna be wanna be wanna be Jim Morrison
Here we are with our running and confusion
And I don't see no confusion anywhere

Ripcord

Soul destroyed
With clever toys
For little boys
It's inevitable, it's inevitable
It's a soul destroyed
You're free until you drop
You're free until you've had enough
And you don't understand
You've no ripcord

Aeroplane do I mean what I mean?
It's inevitable, inevitable,
Oh aeroplane
A thousand miles an hour
On politics and power that you don't understand
And no ripcord

The answer to your prayers
We'll drop you anywhere
With no ripcord.

Vegetable

I never wanted anything but this
I tried hard, worked hard
I ran around in domestic bliss
I fought hard, died hard

Every time you're running over me
Every time you're running I can see

I'm not a vegetable
I will not control myself
I spit on the hand that feeds me
I will not control myself

I never wanted any broken bones
Scarred face, no home
You words surround me and I asphyxiate
And I burn all hate
Every time you're running out on me
Every time you're running I can see

The waters break, the waters run all over me
The waters break, the waters run
And this time your gonna pay

Prove Yourself

I can't afford to breath in this town
Nowhere to sit without a gun in my hand
Hooked back up to my cathode ray
I'm better off dead
Prove Yourself
I wanna breath I wanna grow
I'd say I want it but I don't know how
I work, I bleed, I beg, I pray
But I'm better off dead
Prove Yourself
Why?

I Can't

Please forget the words that I just blurted out
It wasn't me it was my strange and creeping doubt
It keeps rattling my cage
And there's nothing in this world
That will keep it down.
Even though I might, even thought I try, I can't

So many things that keep, that keep me underground
So many words that I, that I can never find

If you give up on me now
I'll be gutted like I've never been before
Even though I might, even thought I try
I can't

If you give up on me now I'll be gutted like I've never been before.
Even though I might, even though I try
I can't

Lurgee

I feel better, I feel better now you've gone
I feel better, I feel strong
I got better, I got better now there's nothing wrong
I got better, I got better, I got strong

Tell me something, tell me something I don't know,
Tell me one thing, tell me one thing and let it go

I got something, I got something heaven knows,
I got something, I got something I don't know

Blow Out

In my mind
And nailed into my heels
All the time
Killing what I feel
And everything I touch turns to stone
(All wrapped up in cotton wool, all wrapped up and sugar coated.)

I am fused
Just in case I blow out
I am glued
Just in case I crack out
And everything I touch turns to stone
Everything I touch turns to stone
