of Montreal - “Coquet Coquette”

Coquet coquette, you know I won’t forget 
How you kissed me strange to prove you were mythical
My coquet, you used my voice as your ugly vehicle 
Coquet coquette, you know I won’t forget 
How you hurt me twice to prove you were cynical 
My Coquet, you are the death, you are the pinnacle 

With you I can only see my black-light constellations
And other shit I don’t think I have the language to say
I don’t want to catch you with some other guy’s face under your eyelids 
Something must be wrong, you give me emotional artifacts that can find no purchase

Coquet coquette, you know I won’t forget 
How you sold me out to prove you were typical
My coquet, you’re Herculean, you are so miserable
Coquet coquette, you know I won’t forget 
How you made me cry to prove I was beautiful 
My coquet, my teenage lust for you is so pitiful

With you I can only see my black-light constellations
And other shit I don’t think I have the language to say
I don’t want to catch you with some other guy’s face under your eyelids 
Something must be wrong, you give me emotional artifacts that can find no purchase

Styx- Too Much Time On My Hands

synth love

Sitting on this barstool talking like a damn fool
Got the twelve o’clock news blues
And I’ve given up hope on the afternoon soaps
And a bottle of cold brew
Is it any wonder I’m not crazy? Is it any wonder I’m sane at all
Well I’m so tired of losing- I got nothing to do and all day to do it
I go out cruisin’ but I’ve no place to go and all night to get there
Is it any wonder I’m not a criminal?
Is it any wonder I’m not in jail?
Is it any wonder I’ve got

Too much time on my hands, it’s ticking away with my sanity
I’ve got too much time on my hands, it’s hard to believe such a calamity
I’ve got too much time on my hands and it’s ticking away from me
Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands
Too much time on my hands

Well, I’m a jet fuel genius - I can solve the world’s problems
Without even trying
I have dozens of friends and the fun never ends
That is, as long as I’m buying
Is it any wonder I’m not the president
(He’s not the president) 
Is it any wonder I’m null and void?
Is it any wonder I’ve got

Too much time on my hands, it’s ticking away with my sanity
I’ve got too much time on my hands, it’s hard to believe such a calamity
I’ve got too much time on my hands and it’s ticking away from me
Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands
Too much time on my hands

John Lennon- Watching The Wheels

People say I’m crazy doing what I’m doing,
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin,
When I say that I’m o.k. they look at me kind of strange,
Surely your not happy now you no longer play the game,

People say I’m lazy dreaming my life away,
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me,
When I tell that I’m doing Fine watching shadows on the wall,
Don’t you miss the big time boy you’re no longer on the ball?

I’m just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round,
I really love to watch them roll,
No longer riding on the merry-go-round,
I just had to let it go,

People asking questions lost in confusion,
Well I tell them there’s no problem,
Only solutions,
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I’ve lost my mind,
I tell them there’s no hurry…
I’m just sitting here doing time,

I’m just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round,
I really love to watch them roll,
No longer riding on the merry-go-round,
I just had to let it go
