Well if I were a record, I'd be a '45 If I were a record, I'd be a '45 Spinning little and fast round a three minute path Made outta plastic but you know I'm gonna last Stacked up in a dusty box in a corner of your flat Bring in what you got and then the man will give you cash If you got the money, I'll meet you at the show Yeah, when you get the money, I'll meet you at the show I'll be way out in space, I will not say hello I ride with the bass, it's a freewheeling flow Boys step down on my feet, shoving elbows flail about Cigarette smoke's in my face, I've quit, I step out He showed up at the party, and made me spill my drink He showed up at the party, and then I spilled my drink Skirt soaked in gin before I could even think You need him real bad, he'll be gone in just a blink He wrecked my car and brought another girl into his bed If he gets close to this guitar, I'll knock his sorry head

Twenty years ago there was an accident At the nuclear plant by her parents' house It's a shock she was even conceived The other kids in the town Are scared, they don't want her around But all I wanna do is squeeze Amarah's tentacles Behind her back, they say "Octopus", "Zippy Squid" and "Mutant Girl" But I see her in a different light If I get too close, do you think She'll be frightened, and spray me with ink? I don't care, I need to squeeze Amarah's tentacles I suppose it might seem pretty odd To date a girl who is part cephalopod But how I long to squeeze Amarah's tentacles How I long to tease Amarah's tentacles How I long to please Amarah's tentacles

Positive mental focus Therapeutic third eye integration daily Feel her soul fly into the ether Chaotic erotic rebirth lying there Why you wanna move to Canada? Why do you wanna move to France? Why you wanna move to Portland, Oregon? When will you take off your pants? Boogie down, emotion Embrace ego, intellect, diversity Find her soul floating in the yerba mate Run her life on sustainable energy When will you dye all your hair bright red? Where will you put your next tattoo? You're never listening, you're texting on your phone In between bites of tofu When will your folks buy you a hybrid car? What enlightenment do you seek? Digital messages sent from the mountain sun Or naked parties in the creek? Why do you wanna move to Zanzibar? When will you see Tibet? You say you're happy, girl, but you cannot decide You ain't got out of Whole Foods yet
