New Waif
(Juliana Hatfield)

you better give this girl something
because she's dying for a lie
tell her love is all we need
and we're not fighting for nothing
you see everything it was how she knew
you would find her perfect song between asleep and awake
in simple truths like blood in the streets
sugar is sweet and the sky is blue

What Do I Care
(Juliana Hatfield)

I feel funny is it over am I dead or asleep on the sofa
made in china for the masses I'm cheap and plastic there's millions of us yeah
you can buy me you can break me you can laugh but you'll see it's so easy
what the fuck it's a miracle I'm even here
you're over me but I'm alive what do I care
do you miss it doing dishes I'm amazed you don't find me delicious
look at me there I'm a rock star in my momo you can't see my blah blah
can you take it when I break it give it back to the posers who fake it
suck the milk out of the lilacs we were so innocent you can't go back
what the fuck it's a miracle I'm even here
you're over me but I'm alive so what do I care
standing in the cement
standing in the cement
standing in the cement
buried in that moment
standing in the cement
standing in the cement
standing in the cement
buried in that moment

what the fuck it's a miracle I'm even here
you're over me I hate New York what do I care

Stay Awake
(Juliana Hatfield and Joe Keefe)

I don't wanna go to school today
I don't wanna go
I just wanna play guitar all day
you act like you're the only one who has problems
you act like you're the only one who's ever gotten strung out on pills
pills

I don't wanna have to do the things that people have to do
I'm not a person I'm just an object to you like books and shoes
you act like you're the only one with a chemical imbalance
you're not the only one who's ever looked into a flash

stay awake
stay awake
I don't wanna stay awake
I don't wanna stay awake
stay awake
stay awake
I'm gonna go to sleep

stay awake
stay awake
I'm gonna go to sleep

On Video
(Juliana Hatfield and Joe Keefe)

it's on video
baby there's no way you can lie your way out of this one
it's on video
you're looking so transparent you got no skill at seduction no
all the money you bought and the money you won
and the money you got and the money you love's not enough
it's on video
now all the bleeding hearts have finally got their proof yeah
it's on video
just cause you say you're a good man doesn't make it true
no
all the money you bought and the money you won
and the money you got and the money you love's not enough

it's on video
it's on video
all the favors you trade with the cops
and all the people you paid off
all the money you bought and the money you won
all the money you got and the money you love
all the money you bought and the money you won
all the money you got and the money you love's not enough

Hole In The Sky
(Juliana Hatfield)

there's a hole in the sky
I stood and stared
I feel it inside what isn't there
the children are lost we can't find them anywhere
hole in the sky
I'm crying still crying for you
hole in the sky
I'm crying still crying for you
there's smoke in our eyes it's all over town
your power and your money they won't help you now
you've unleashed the sun till now and forever burn down
hole in the sky
I'm crying still crying for you
hole in the sky
I'm crying still crying for you
everybody look up with funeral eyes
wish you had one more chance to say goodbye or I'm sorry

la la da da da la da da da
hole in the sky
ah
hole in the sky
I'm coming I'm coming with you

Oh
(Juliana Hatfield)

it's a basic need to lie and be believed
step out of line and you will have arrived
oh oh oh tell me something
oh oh oh don't say nothing
I'm gonna wait till it rains then I'm gonna burn everything
I'll sing to the clock because no one came
oh oh oh tell me something
oh oh oh don't say nothing
you don't know what it's like
you don't know what it's like to be perfect
to be perfect

what it's like
shine a light on a sob story
shine it on the dust
this is the age of boredom and deadly weapons
oh oh oh flip a coin
oh oh oh to live or die
why are you so surprised
no one knows what it's like to be perfect
no one knows what it's like
why are you so surprised
flip a coin to live or die

My Pet Lion
(Juliana Hatfield)

there's a moment in every day right before it's too late
innocent child sees the truth but your mother never knew
you snuck downstairs and doused the flames all in vain
can't hold on gotta let go
can't hold on gotta let go
you know just what you want
you want ice cream and bags of chips and chocolate and blood and guts and drugs and sex and cigarettes
and I got tricks to keep me in line
like being good for a while
I sit on my hands
but my heart speeds up
so I just say what the fuck
I can't hold on I gotta let go
can't hold on gotta let go

make me wild
let me melt

inside a house on stormy seas the roof is leaking
under the waves there is no light and everyones sleeping
I'm so afraid I'm not in control it's out of control
rip me to shreds and spit it out all over the world

make me wild
there's a moment in every day just before it's too late
you can't hold on I gotta let go
can't hold on gotta let go
I can't hold on I gotta let go
I can't hold on I gotta let go

Going Blonde
(Juliana Hatfield)

nah nah nah nah nah nah
baby baby baby
I don't want nothing
means I want something
millions of diamonds
sparkling shining
singing stupid songs I'm going blonde
bleach in my brain I dig the pain
firing squad pointed at the sweet spot
I'm turning myself on I'm going blonde
never want to be forgotten I'm speaking american
I need some attention tell you my problems
whats going on I think I'm going blonde

nah nah nah nah nah nah
nah nah nah nah nah nah
baby baby baby
baby baby baby
nahanahanahah nah nah

Rats In The Attic
(Juliana Hatfield)

my babys in my blood and in you
and where we are and what the wind blew
sideways and backwards
here by the ocean
I got murderous urges
I got murderous urges
there's lead in the water that we drink
and in the paint on the ceiling
chipped off and falling
there's rats in the attic
I got murderous urges
I got murderous urges

oh oh
this land is mine full of poison
in hidden corners of my home
seeds were thrown
there are no weapons so we can't fight what grows inside me
is it alive
rats in the attic
rats in the attic
rats in the attic

Digital Penetration
(Juliana Hatfield)

will you get me when I wash ashore
bring the nightgown I left on your floor
if it's snowing and the truck gets stuck
I get out and help you dig it out
I want you it's 9 degrees without you I will freeze
if you take me to a party that everybody knows the songs but me
I'll sing
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
the snow is dirty in the city
people faking going crazy
shiny girls with no opinions
bring the dogs to them so they can choose
there's too much noise here
I can't hear the music in my head
are you contemplating white lines
I will save you from the spider bites
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
you're my island boy come and live with me
you don't have to pay got my own money
there's a time to work and a time to play
it's a perfect place for the end of side one

la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la

A Doe And Two Fawns
(Juliana Hatfield)

I stand at the window looking out
waiting for something I don't know what
they don't see me so they're not scared
but they tread lightly everywhere
here comes the darkness it comes down fast
run to the ocean leave tracks in the sand
sunsets pink and orange and lavender and gray
there's a bird on a branch at the top of the tree
we wanted the world to give us a chance
now we're pushed out to the edges
if we stand still blinded by the lights
is it murder or suicide
here comes the darkness it comes down fast
run to the ocean over the sand
here comes the darkness it comes down fast
run to the ocean leave tracks in the sand

Send Money
(Juliana Hatfield)

when you talk to god tell him I said hi
but he don't need to bless me because I am alright already
would you kill for Jesus
when you've never met the man you've only read about
I want proof because I'm full of doubt
save yourself
save yourself
if you want to pray for me tell god to send me some money
save yourself
save yourself
if you want to pray for me tell god to send me some money
don't I wish you could do my thinking for me
but it doesn't work that way
and this marriage is not officially ordained
we just love each other
and I am an unwed mother
I love the world
I love my beautiful girls
save yourself
save yourself
if you want to pray for me tell god to send me some money
save yourself
save yourself
if you want to pray for me tell god to send me some money
save yourself
save yourself
if you want to pray for me tell god to send me some money

if you want to pray for me tell god to send me some money
save yourself
save yourself
if you want to pray for me tell god to send me some money
save yourself
save yourself
if you want to pray for me tell god to send me some money

save yourself
save yourself
if you have to pray for me tell god to send me some money
