Yuck My Yum

Play that record one more time --
I like the way she sings.
Let's not call it OCD.
I just notice little things.
And birds wake me up in the morning.
Cicadas keep me up all night.
Damian Smith broke all of my toys,
And I never even put up a fight.
Curled up in a corner,
Sucking on my thumb,
Someone's always trying
To yuck my yum.
Up and down my street,
The boys and girls play roller hockey.
Me, I'd rather stay inside
Watching Miyazaki.
And birds wake me up in the morning.
Cicadas keep me up all night.
Damian Smith broke all of my toys,
And I never even put up a fight.
Curled up in a corner,
Sucking on my thumb,
Someone's always trying
To yuck my yum.
Find the page and turn the page
And start another day.
Sometime when you least expect,
I might come out to play.
Birds wake me up in the morning.
Cicadas keep me up all night.
Damian Smith broke all of my toys,
And I never even put up a fight.
Curled up in a corner,
Sucking on my thumb,
Someone's always trying
To yuck my yum.

Throw Some Shade

Slide the bottle over.
The oats are in the back
Of the cabinet where you keep your
Morning heart attack.
You were sixteen when they took the picture,
Eighteen when it made the rounds.
Five years on you wonder if you’ll
Ever live it down.
So throw some shade my way
If it takes the heat off you.
Throw some shade my way
When you’re feeling black and blue.
Throw some shade my way
Like I haven’t got a clue.
Throw some shade my way
And I’ll throw it back at you.
Spend the morning scrolling.
Through lives that should be yours.
When it comes to gratitude,
We’re barely amateurs.
You were sixteen when they took the picture,
Eighteen when it made the rounds.
Five years on you wonder if you’ll
Ever live it down.
So throw some shade my way
If it takes the heat off you.
Throw some shade my way
When you’re feeling black and blue.
Throw some shade my way
Like I haven’t got a clue.
Throw some shade my way
And I’ll throw it back at you.
You’re a little tired.
I’m a little punk.
We only get along when we’re
Both a little drunk.
You were sixteen when they took the picture,
Eighteen when it made the rounds.
Five years on you wonder if you’ll
Ever live it down.
So throw some shade my way
If it takes the heat off you.
So throw some shade my way
If it takes the heat off you.
Throw some shade my way
When you’re feeling black and blue.
Throw some shade my way
Like I haven’t got a clue.
Throw some shade my way
And I’ll throw it back at you.
Anything is possible,
Anything at all, but
When the future rings us up,
We never take the call.
You were sixteen when they took the picture,
Eighteen when it made the rounds.
Five years on you wonder if you’ll
Ever live it down.
So throw some shade my way
If it takes the heat off you.
Throw some shade my way
When you’re feeling black and blue.
Throw some shade my way
Like I haven’t got a clue.
Throw some shade my way
And I’ll throw it back at you.

Tranzor Z

Welcome to the game, my friend.
We all know how it works.
It’s you and me alone against
A schoolyard full of jerks.
They hunt you down across the blacktop,
Want to see you crucified.
Someday we’ll rise above them.
‘Til then I’ll dream that I can fly.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
Back home we lose ourselves in
Comic books and toys
To pretend we’re more than just
Frightened little boys.
Though we never learned to fight and
We don’t get dirty jokes,
Television bathes us in a
Cathode ray of hope.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
Welcome to the game again.
We’ve all been here before,
But I think it’s time for us to
Even up the score:
No more hiding in the shadows,
No more playing nice,
No more slowly turning to a
Ghost in my own life.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be, I want to be, I want to be Tranzor Z.
I want to be Tranzor Z.

* They push and pull me. I was scared, but I will stand tall. I will never be quiet. I will not be a ghost. I will be Mazinger Z.
** The world bets on a roll of dice. I’m getting better and better. I will learn to fly. I do my own thing. I will be Mazinger Z.
*** I am free and happy. Most days are very good. I never fear. My wings do not grow tired. I will be Mazinger Z.

I can't pick a favorite. All good. I tend to favor Shadows in the Dark, it to me is the "hit" but PP&F reminds me of an obscure Doors song and I dig that. So there.
