Fly Big Balloon
Fly to the moon
And I’ll wait here on the ground
Fly Big Balloon
Fly to the moon
And I’ll wait here on the ground
Rolling in the clouds
Thunder rings so loud
Let my wings dry out
And I’ll wait here
Fly Big Balloon

Friends Are Nice

Friends are nice
To have around
Friends are nice
To have in your house
Friends are not like carpet
Old and dusty
Not made for walking all over
Cause that’s what I learned from my father
He said “Keep your enemies closer”
Friends are nice
To have around
Friends that have a shed
And a big house
Friends can store your belongings
Old and dusty
I’ll keep them forever and ever
I’ll keep floating down like a feather
Cause friendship makes everything better
Friends are nice
To have around
Friends are nice
To have around
Friends are nice
So you don’t have to fight
So you don’t have to fight
So you don’t have to
Don’t have to
Don’t have to fight
Friends are nice
To have around
Friends are nice
To have around
Friends are nice
So you don’t have to fight
So you don’t have to fight
So you don’t have to
Don’t have to
Don’t have to fight
Friends are nice
Friends are nice
Friends are nice
Friends are nice
Friends are nice
Friends are nice
Friends are nice
Nice

Low down
Closer to the ground
Sweet in all the memories
Sliding
Arms down my sleeve
Now I’ve got the time to breathe
When they cut the lights out
I’ll bleed down my arm
But I won’t be there to feel it
I’ll be rolling round warm
Like a baby in a womb
Or desert bones buried in a tomb
So can you keep the lights on
Just for a second
Just for a second
Just for a second
Can you keep the dice spinning
Just for a second
Just for a second
Just for a second
High up
Safe aboard my little ship
I sail on into the reef
Hanging
On by a thread
A thread of blood
A thread of blood inside of me
When they cut the lights out
I’ll bleed down my arm
But I won’t be there to feel it
I’ll be rolling round warm
Like a baby in a womb
Or desert bones buried in a tomb
So can you keep the lights on
Just for a second
Just for a second
Just for a second
Can you keep the dice spinning
Just for a second
Just for a second
Just for a second

Unfold the night
Like a black chequered board
All the light
That could be glowing
Curled up and stored
Like a ball
Never thrown
Too far
From home
Stop on the way
To find the words
In your head
Darkness fades
The gate is open
The flock ran and fled
Back to bed
Always warm
Not too far
Never gone
The sounds
Came so clear
But I can’t play
What I hear
I will be there
By your bedside
I wanna see you
When your eyes cry
But if I feel
The need to hide
You can speak and
I will transcribe
And the sounds
Came so clear
But I can’t play
What I hear
I will be there
By your bedside
I wanna see you
When your eyes cry
But if I feel
The need to hide
You can speak and

Do I
Really want this?
The brick gets stuck
In all the houses
And you can’t just send the baby back in
So I’ll probably fall asleep
And forget all about it
Do I have to block up every leak
When it comes down like a fountain?
Drinking
Every day now
These walls are crashing
And I can’t get out
Cause when everything starts caving in
I don’t know how to keep from being quiet
When I start to open up my mouth
The words tumble down
And then they crumble
So I’ll probably fall asleep
And forget all about it
Do I have to block up every leak
When it comes down like a fountain?

We Are The Kids

Sitting down in the heat
The fan is on in my kitchen
The things crawl in through the doors
They’re open wide so come inside
Open up the fridge again
Still filled up with the same old things
Lettuce, pickles, leg of ham
I just want choccy don’t you understand
We are the kids
So where’s our mum and dad?
They sell, sell, sell all day long
And don’t have time for much else
No time off but they’ve got bread
To give a bakery inferiority complex
The bins go out Tuesday night
It’s garbage trucks in the morning light
When everyone’s snakes in the tall, tall grass
We’re down here dressed just like bare shins
Cause we are the kids
So where’s our mum and dad?
We are the kids
So where’s our mum and dad?
We are the kids
So where’s our mum and dad?

Lemons

I jumped the back fence
And my arms were quick
I’m moving fast
Yes I’m moving fast
You know I’m moving
I saw the black dog
And it looked like he had human teeth
He had human teeth
He was human
Lemons to the people
Lemons for all
Lemons to the people
Lemons for all
Lemons to the people
Lemons for all
Lemons to the people
Lemons for all involved
My heart was pounding
So I stuffed the lemons in my bag
I stuffed em in my bag
I stuffed em in my
But grandma saw
She was screaming from the windowsill
Yeah she’s screaming still
She started screaming
Lemons to the people
Lemons for all
Lemons to the people
Lemons for all
Lemons to the people
Lemons for all
Lemons to the people
Lemons for all involved
Description of a lemon:
They are round and fragrant
Great for zesting
Great for eating
And when you take them by the hand to the gate
They say please
Please come with me
And when someone takes your lemon
Takes it round the back
Takes it through the alleyway
Takes it up the roller door
A lemon will grind
It will grind and grind and grind and grind until
Until it bursts
Bursts into flames
Bursts into a thousand suns
Bursts into the power that you know not
But I know of
Because I have seen the lemon
I’ve seen the lemon thief
I’ve seen it wandering around these parts
Lemons
Lemons
Lemons for all
Lemons
