Cruel 04:35
at mountain tops I gain relief by distancing myself from my tow n grief and farther out is outer space with unimaginable happenings just taking place... I can be cruel as cruel to you as I am to me I can be cruel as cruel to you as I am to me... and when I need it there's outer space beautiful baby are you taking place? can you take me away? cause I can be cruel as cruel to you as I am to me I can be cruel as cruel to you as I am to me... and when I need it there's outer space.....

L.A. 101 05:43
heading southbound to L.A. and the traffic's getting started stop and go, merging lanes smoggy sky the smell of it reigns. vibrations gained by the texture of the pavement shaking straight to those parts with the aid of the press of my hand and I notice blank stares on bored drivers as my own intensity rises steady at the wheel steady at the wheel... LA 101 so off and disturbing LA 101 do they know what they're missing? so I'm moving through LA and my exit's getting closer crusted paint makes its limp stating "Vineland" on dirty green flesh sticking to my seat breaking past points of resistance. but my timing is off as I reach for the gear with the man in the Porche just beside me should I take the risk of attention drawn t o me? or stay steady at the wheel steady at the wheel... LA 101 so off and disturbing LA 101 do they know what they're missing? chorus of the engines sing lack of passion in those voices but it's there on the street visual cries graffiti. cultures lost suburbia striking me with dries and empties... silent fish in a pond metal glass and you feel so alone all your life you were told to trust no one not even yourself or your loved ones so you're steady at your own wheel steady at your own, own..... LA 101 so off and disturbing LA 101 do they know? LA 101 where are they going? LA 101 do they know what they're missing?

Ynot 03:25
the telephone I must not dial is like your birthday card I must not mail because I'm trying to do what you do.... cut it off start something new . ynot my brother i can't tell you how don't you have something to say to me? no one should stop it they don't know us will this theme catch up to you? like looking back at 80's fashion like observing insects in their heat of passion it's ridiculous and strange is it how my love for you will seem once time has me change? ynot my brother I can't tell you how don't you have something to say to me no one should stop it they don't know us will this theme catch up to you? copyright 1995 Jennifer Terran/ Grizelda Publishing

Fat 04:15
Please let me be A whole song Inspiration is yours If you don't call me wrong And love is so fat It's gonna suffocate the rats That brought you disease And death and life And death and life and death And life. Lovers in bliss illusion Afraid to fart You can't let that other see you Without your make-up on And love is so fat It's going to suffocate the rats Cause there's a deeper A deeper, a deeper Love Hateful critics Will try to intersect your flow Their only wish is to stop you From carrying out your song So you better get fat To suffocate the rats It's going to take courage To love To love To love yourself And if you're not going to love me? If you're not going to love me? How are you gonna love Anybody else?

She Never saw me like this And all my words Never met her ears And all th at I get to see Can she see at all? Cause when I lost you I learned there were no guarantees at all Cause when I lost you I learned there were no guarantees But all this time I couldn't see The anguish of your fall She I never understood her world I was just hanging around Trapped in her painful whirl And all the anger All the anger I've had to feel She never had to take a grain of it Cause woman when I lost you I learned there were no g uarantees at all Cause woman when I lost you? Are there no? Are there no... But all this time I couldn't see The anguish Of your fall
