The Unthinkable - Boom Bip, Venetian Snares, Buck 65

Box of bones beneath my bed

Crow’s foot always in my pocket

Big black circles, shooting pains

Stick a knife into a socket

Bottle rockets, rubber bands

Throw a good book out the window

Boil water, spill the beans

Sit still, listen to the wind blow

Burn the photos, kill the lights

Hold your breath, spy on your neighbours

Do the tango with a broom

Wrap the presents with newspapers

Fly a kite late at night

Take a walk along the coast

No matter what I still can’t sleep

Everywhere I still see ghosts

Selected works of Karl Marx

The greatest hits of Bill Monroe

Midnight on the stormy deep

Where did all the children go?

Angels on the tops of trees

Baseball in a prison yard

Lovers in the cemetary

Close your eyes, it isn’t hard

I teach a dog to shake my hand

Crawl with my wood burning through

I still can’t swim to save my life

But I learned all I could learn in school

Wicked witches cast their spells

My heart’s been broken more than most

No matter what I still can’t sleep

Everywhere I still see ghosts

Pupils dilate, eardrums bleed

Students riot in the square

Records break but so do bones

There’s something evil in the air

So lock the door and spill your guts

Slit your writsts and say you’re sorry

Take the day off, stay in bed

Throw your voice and change your story

Stranger things have happened, captain

Learn the words and make them true

Play their music backwards, listen

Even promises break in two

Pins and needles, freezing pain

We’re not there yet, not even close

No matter what I still can’t sleep

Everywhere I still see ghosts

Go outside and take your clothes off

Dig a hole and lay down in it Swallow hard and make a fist

The world could end at any minute

So take the train, get right with God

Shoot the stars and smoke some crack

Pack your bags, put on your shoes

Go far away and don’t come back

Broken glass, razor wire

The TV’s on but no one’s home

How everything’s the way I like it Not a sound, I’m all alone

Inside out and upside down

I bang my head against a post

No matter what I still can’t sleep

Everywhere I still see ghosts
