Hardcore UFO's (01:54)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
sitting out on your house
watching hardcore ufo's
drawing pictures, playing solos til ten

are you amplified to rock?
are you hoping for a contact?
i'll be with you, without you, again

turn and run, the angel's calling
you say when and i say i'm falling
up and down through broken down buildings
back and forth but please don't bother at all

count the days that we have wasted from the start
speak the words and build a playground
in your head

turn and run, the angel's calling
you say when and i say i'm falling
up and down through broken down buildings
back and forth but you know why i left you for so long
you know why i left you for so long...

Buzzards and Dreadful Crows (01:43)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
the lifeblood - the lighthouse flashing
16 chicks remain on watch
for the wheels to come rolling in
and they do...
yes they always do
i'd be bored and disappointed if they didn't

buzzards and dreadful crows
right on the tip of my nose
they wait like cats and fly out
for the light in my eyes to die out
and it does...
yes it always does
i'd be shocked and removed if it didn't

buzzards and dreadful crows
a necessary evil, i suppose
there's something in this deal for everyone
did you really think that you were the only one?

Tractor Rape Chain (03:04)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
why is it every time i think about you
something that you have said or implied makes
me doubt you
then i look into your cynical eyes and i know it
as if it never meant anything to me

parallel lines on a slow decline - tractor rape chain
better yet, let's all get wet on the tractor rape chain
speed up, slow down, go all around in the end

in the first place it's probably just paranoia
but there's a ghost in my room
and he says i better run
it's a thing i know - it's a thing i believe in
won't you tell it to go away?

parallel lines on a slow decline - tractor rape chain
better yet, let's all get wet on the tractor rape chain
speed up, slow down, go all around in the end
speed up, slow down, go all around in the end...

The Goldheart Mountaintop Queen Directory (01:45)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
cold hands touching my face
don't hide - the snake can see you
old friends you might not remember
fading away from you
the goldheart mountaintop queen directory
the goldheart mountaintop queen directory

and we looked
and we passed
through the hallways of shatterproof glass

she runs through the night as if nobody cares
she screams and she cries and ignores all the stares
she wants me to come, but i'm never going there
the goldheart mountaintop queen directory
the goldheart mountaintop queen directory

Hot Freaks (01:42)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
i met a non-dairy creamer
explicitly laid out like a fruitcake
with a wet spot
bigger than a great lake
took me to the new church
and baptized me with salt
she told me, "liquor"
i am a new man

hot freaks

this one is on the house
this one is better than ever

i walked into the house of miraculous recovery
and stood before king everything
and he asked me to join him in the red wing
took me to pie land
said, "i'm a thigh man"
i will be eternally hateful

hot freaks
hot freaks
hot freaks

this one is on the house
this one is better than ever
and this one is on the house
this one is better than ever
this one is on the house
this one is better than ever

Smothered in Hugs (03:00)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
in the summer that you came
there was something eating everyone
and the sunshine fund was low
we couldn't greet you
with a simple hello

and the watchers of the flood
were busy in their chambers
making sure there was new blood
to sustain their dying veins

but i believed you
no need for further questioning
i'm gonna leave with you
you can teach me all you know
which way will we go now
on our trip to taller windows
i really don't know now
i really don't know

in the winter that you left
there was business as usual
with the same old fears and frustrations
but the word got out
it was really such a pity

but the judges and the saints
and the textbook committee
decided you should be left out
not even mentioned

but i believed you
no need for further questioning
i'm gonna leave with you
you can teach me all you know
which way will we go now
on our trip to taller windows
i really don't know now
i really don't know

Echos Myron (02:42)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
tower to the skies
an academy of lies
and what goes up
surely must come down
and we felt the mighty blow-up
with the walls coming down
or something like that

most of us are quite pleased
with the same old song
and all of a sudden i'm relatively sane
with everything to lose and nothing to gain
or something like that

man of wisdom and man of compromise
man of weak flesh in an armored disguise
all fall down

"if it's right you can tell" echos myron like a siren
with endurance like the liberty bell
and he tells you of the dreamers
but he's cracked up like the road
and he'd like to lift us up, but we're a very heavy load
and we're finally here and shit yeah it's cool
and shouldn't it be - or something like that

Awful Bliss (01:12)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
you chose a giant step - caught your eye
guaranteed sweetness that you thought broken
and you were not fine
and bearing in mind
other ones that you could have wed
and hopefully dread

and i wouldn't dare to
bring out this
awful bliss

no i wouldn't dare to
bring out this
awful bliss

no i wouldn't dare to
bring out this

A Big Fan of the Pigpen (02:09)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
(not this one either) oh, to speak on one's feet to beat on one's brain the popular mechanics are at it again a tenement filled with side-show freaks assembled to downgrade an immpeccable arrangement by the soft-rock renegades and give me time to light a sentimental torch tonight i'm a big fan of the pigpen sharper than most cut with exacto gone is all good ex post facto ba-da-ba-da... oh, oh...

Her Psychology Today (02:04)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
yeah you know things could get much worse
you know things could get much worse
could be better, yeah..

her psychology today is to play the crying game
to elicit a response to determine every gain
and i'm wanting to attain something in this turnabout

when she speaks the flag unfurls
and the heavens split in half
when she launches her attack
in her opening paragraph

and she is having the time of my life
she is having - she is

....?

hey you know things could get much better
could be better
hey you know things could get much better
could be better
gotta be better, you know..

Kicker of Elves (01:04)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves

on high seas you search of
the sickly sweet milk of selfish love
and knife these for warm fresh blood

dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves

in studded crown the thief of souls
the parasites - the bugs of gold
this fertile land now spoiled and sold

dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee, kicker of elves

Ester's Day (01:51)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
jimmy was a fly
got sucked in by an actor
and wrapped in a cocoon
and skin-tight buffoonery
now here's the plan...

scene from ester's day
of running backward courses
with a horse of different forces
lying wings of films
that seem to never see the screen
couldn't bear to face their dreams

down and out
couldn't bear to shout it out

brought up on the road
a sparkle shiny diner
is the home for wayward minor
in a flying car that seems
to whisper in an ear
let's just go get out of here

down and out
couldn't bear to shout it out

down and out
couldn't bear to shout it out...

Demons Are Real (00:48)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
deliver this message to the one i love the most
i've lost all my money to a 300 pound ghost
squeaky was a sad child - the product of neglect
got stoned by a jellyfish demanding her respect

demons are real
they are standing still
demons are real
they are standing still

I Am a Scientist (02:24)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
i am a scientist - i seek to understand me
all of my impurities and evils yet unknown
i am a journalist - i write to you to show you
i am an incurable
and nothing else behaves like me

and i know what's right
but i'm losing sight
of the clues for which i search and choose
to abuse
to just unlock my mind
yeah, and just unlock my mind

i am a pharmacist
prescriptions i will fill you
potions, pills and medicines
to ease your painful lives
i am a lost soul
i shoot myself with rock & roll
the hole i dig is bottomless
but nothing else can set me free

and i know what's right
but i'm losing sight
of the clues for which i search and choose
to abuse
to just unlock my mind
yeah, and just unlock my mind

i am a scientist - i seek to understand me
i am an incurable and nothing else behaves like me

everything is right
everything works out right
everything fades from sight
because that's alright with me

Peep-Hole (01:25)
Guided by Voices • Bee Thousand
give me the cost as the albatross
and wear it 'round your neck for size
don't let it get you down
i'm looking inside your house
I know that it smells so nice
your house always looks so nice

bear the crosses high laughing
maybe the time is right you know
promise me not to leave
i'm looking inside your brain
christ it's a cluttered mess
i love you i must confess
