Lyrics

I Know

I Know

I know*
   
my limits and that is bad
why you don't want to talk to me
my limits and that is bad
the taste of real good cheese!
   
Repeat
music and lyrics Darryl Sweet/BMI

Funky Boisse

Walk into the sun looking for fire
trippin on mongoose
hangin on drier
pushin my friend trippin on acid
reading G. Stein into the grapevine
   
Chorus:
some of my friends are trippin on acid
music Darryl Sweet/BMI & Thomas Csicsman
lyrics Darryl Sweet/BMI

Local Massage

Well I'm going to town for a local massage
Gonna get my feet scraped in a local massage
I'm gonna bury someone
I don't know who it's gonna be
   
Well I could be burying myself
If I don't get to town for a local massage
   
Oh yeah
music and lyrics Darryl Sweet/BMI

Into Blind

Chorus:
I'm falling into blind and floating far off
Wednesday, Thursday
   
Keep on thinking
Water down your thoughts
Along the banks of the Mississippi
   
Lonely you are following me
Just sit back
Enjoy the tide
music and lyrics Darryl Sweet/BMI

Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes, Bugs
music and lyrics Darryl Sweet/BMI & Thomas Csicsman

Chicken Wire

Wrapping with chicken wire
up and down the road
wrapping with chicken wire all around the road
   
Etc.
   
Keep your clucks in!

Sunflower Song

I'm dead, I'm dying
I'm underground with worms
I'm underground with the dirt
   
Chorus:
I'm buried with sunflower seeds
   
I'm under the ground with the worms
Under the ground with the dirt
Under the ground
music Darryl Sweet/BMI & Thomas Csicsman

Picking Nothing

Picking Nothing from the hairy head
Laying down the law
painting pictures of television
and tracing family trees
   
Chorus:
Picking Nothing, Picking Nothing
Frying eggs
Furnace hot
Boiling Water
   
Picking nothing
but I'm singing with you
You sing high
I'll sing low
Painting Bricks on flower walls
Lying down to hit the stars
   
Chorus
music and lyrics Darryl Sweet/BMI

Daylight

Let me know what you're thinking in the daylight
Let me know what you're thinking in the night
Let me know what you're thinking in the daylight
Let me know what you're thinking in the night
   
You let me know..
