It's my shout
This wine is melting the bounds
Between good taste
And what I might say
Matador
Swing your blood red cape
Ole Ole
I was born an asshole
It's my shout
This wine is melting the bounds
Between good taste
And what I might say
Matador
Swing your blood red cape
Ole Ole
I was born an asshole

Thought I gave it up for Lent
Burning all my bridges down
Sailors dream of home
Husbands the open road
Some unwritten law
Keeps me burning all my bridges down
Mermaids on the rocks
If I knew what I was getting myself into
I wouldn’t have dared
Thought I gave it up for Lent
Burning all my bridges down
Sailors dream of home
Husbands the open road
Some unwritten law
Keeps me burning all my bridges down
Mermaids on the rocks
If I knew what I was getting myself into
I wouldn’t have dared

When you spy a fresh face
Remember the rich taste
You want a part
At the cost of it all
So you open your flick knife
And lop off a thick slice
Envy makes the flyer fall

Folks, it's time to go
Time has passed and you've just missed her
Folks, were heading home
Ayahuasca chacronita
Feed your memories to flames
Who remembers yesterday
Time has passed and you've just missed her
Folks, were heading home

I wrote this song to tell you I'm leaving
Afraid to say these words to your face
Must be better than a letter
A text or an email
My ride stops here at the end of the line

Nothing but love stops the mind from grinding, nothing but love flushes hearts from hiding. Deeper we dive, nowhere to hide.

Come over to the window my little darling, I’d like to try and read your palm. I’m standing on a ledge in your fine spiders-web, it’s fastening my ankle to the bone…

And I feel I've committed some crime
But I don't know what I've done
One day life just wins
But I don't know what I've done
One day life just wins

Will someone please explain to me what makes a human being
Love is the cure
As the earth tilts 6°
We succumb to some dumb calling
One-man stand against tanks
Love is the cure
Let go and set yourself free

As the earth tilts 6°

One-man stand against tanks

I'm so sad I cried a flood
All around tall buildings falling
I'd be falling too
If it weren't for you
All around tall buildings falling
I'd be falling too
If it weren't for you
