Rattlesnakes
Jodie wears a hat although it hasn’t rained for six days
she says a girl needs a gun these days
hey on account of those rattlesnakes
on account of those rattlesnakes
she looks like Eve Marie Saint in On the Waterfront
she reads Simone de Beauvoir in her American circumstance, hey
She’s less than sure if her heart has come to stay in San Jose
and her never-born child haunts her now
as she speeds down the freeway
as she tries her luck with the traffic police
out of boredom more than spite
she never finds no trouble, she tries too hard
she’s oblivious despite herself, hey
she looks like Eve Marie Saint in On the Waterfront
she says all she needs is therapy
all you need is, love is all you need, hey
Jodie never sleeps ‘cause there are always needles in the hay, hay
she says that a girl needs a gun these days
hey on account of all the rattlesnakes
hey on account of the rattlesnakes
she looks like Eve Marie Saint in On the Waterfront
she reads Simone de Beauvoir in her American circumstance
her heart’s like crazy paving
upside down and back to front
she says oh, it’s so hard to love
when love was your great disappointment
ooh
account of those rattlesnakes
she says a girl needs a gun these days, hey…
a girl needs a gun these days
hey on account of the rattlesnakes
hey on account of those rattlesnakes

Chemo Limo
I had a dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin came over and babysat all four of my kids
Then in my dream I told the doctor off he said "if you don't wanna do it
Then you don't have to do it"
He said "the truth is you'll be ok anyway"
Then in my dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin and the doctor went and had a talk with my boss
Something about insurance policies
They kept the door closed at all times
I couldn't hear or see
When they came out they said "you'll be ok anyway"
And I smiled cause I'd known it all the while
No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to pay for this shit
I can afford chemo like i can afford a limo and on any given day I'd rather ride a limousine
No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to die like this
I can afford chemo like I can afford a limo
And besides this shit is making me tired it's making me tired it's making me tired
You know I planned to retire someday
But mama's gonna go out in style
Go out in style
This shit is making me tired
It's making me tired, it's making me tired
Mama gonna go out in style
When I woke up the kids were being quiet
I knew it was a dream right away I called the limousine company
Then I got dressed
I dressed the kids as well
The limousine pulled in and we piled in
The doctor he asked which way we were headed
I said "sir let's just go west" and he listened obediently
Sophie only wanted to listen to radio BBC
Michael sat on my knees and whispered to me all about the meanies
Jacqueline was being such a big girl with her cup of tea looking out of the window
And Barbara, she looks just like my mom
Oh my Barbara she looks so much like my mom
No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to pay for this shit
I can afford chemo like I can afford a limo
And any given day I'd rather ride a limousine
No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to die like this
I can afford chemo like i can afford a limo
And besides this shit is making me tired
It's making me tired, it's making me tired
You know I plan to retire someday
But mama gonna go out in style
Go out in style
This shit is making me tired
It's making me tired, it's making me tired
Mama gonna go out in style
Go out in style
Style

She's Not Innocent
He casts a shadow down the block
he can't remember
Just how to start or when to stop
fight or defend her
He shines the light into the dark
and empty corner
right where the past had left its mark
Too late to warn her.
But she's fine
she's not innocent
She's fine
in all her discontent
She knows it's always been the same.
It'll always be that way.
He holds the secret in his fist
a burning ember
To stay or go now that's the twist
hate or befriend her.
But she's fine
she's not innocent
She's cool
in all her discontent
She knows
it's always been the same
She's fine
she's not ignorant
She knows
there's no main event
She's fine
It's always been the same
It'll always be that
way
It'll always be that way...be that way...
She's fine
she don't give a damn
You don't have to understand
She knows it's always been the same
and she'll always be that way.

Long Way to Happy
One night to you
Lasted six weeks for me
Just a bitter little pill now
Just to try to go to sleep
No more waking up to innocence
Say hello to hesitance
To everyone I meet
Thanks to you years ago
I guess I'll never know
What love means to me but oh
I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way to happy
Left my childhood behind
In a roll away bed
Everything was so damn simple
Now I'm losing my head
Trying to cover up the damage
And pad out all the bruises
Do you know I had it
So it didn't hurt to lose it
Didn't hurt to lose it
No but oh
I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way
Now I'm numb as hell and I can't feel a thing
But don't worry about regret or guilt cause I never knew your name
I just want to thank you
Thank you
From the bottom of my heart
For all the sleepless nights
And for tearing me apart yeah yeah
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long, long, long, long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way to happy
