Cocaine. 02. The Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret Music & lyrics by Joshua Homme and Nick Oliver
I've got a secret, I cannot say
Blame all the movement to give it away You've got somethin, I understand Holding it tightly, caught on command Leap of faith, do you doubt? Cut you in, I just cut you out [chorus:] Whatever you do Don't tell anyone Whatever you do Don't tell anyone Look for reflections, in your face Canine devotion, time can't erase Out on the corner, locked in your room I never believe them and I never assume Still can't believe there is a lie Promise is promise, an eye for an eye We've got something to reveal No one can know how we feel [repeat chorus 2x] I think you already know How far I'd go not to say You know the art isn't gone And I'm taking my song to the grave [repeat chorus] 03. Leg Of Lamb Music & lyrics by Joshua Homme and Nick Oliver
You're a head case, with a smile
Can't stop to make up your mind Education is so lame (so lame), when you bitch and you moan You're a loose girl, I'm a guy (hey) You're a truth freak with a lie This situation is so strange, it's a TV show In a hotel, on the phone You're gonna leave me, I should've known (I should've known) And I was thinking, it's so sad I didn't want you to go. Don't wanna follow the laws of man, (yes, sir) Bloody apron, leg of lamb It's so hard to win, when there's so much to lose Infiltrate the walls that are caving in It ain't a bad thing, This ain't reality Infiltrate the walls that are caving in It ain't a bad thing Because it is natural Second Avenue, raising Cain I'm a sinner, ring my bell (ring my bell) I'll tell you what I'd get up, if I knew why I fell 04. Auto Pilot Music & lyrics by Joshua Homme and Nick Oliver
Silent hell on the marble slab
The best trip that I've ever had Higher than a jet plane, pass it around My drinks on empty, need another round [chorus:] I wanna fly, wanna ride with you Is this the best that you can do? I wanna fly, wanna ride with you Higher than a jet plane with you Will we arrive in the middle of nowhere Don't act like you know, I been here so many times I never seen you before But now that I have, I don't wanna see you no more Higher than a jet plane with you Higher than a jet plane with you [repeat chorus] Ah-ah, auto pilot no control Ah-ah, ahh Ah-ah, auto pilot no control Ah-ah, ahh Higher than a jet plane with you Higher than a jet plane with you [repeat chorus] 05. Better Living Through Chemistry Music & lyrics by Joshua Homme and Nick Oliver
The blue pill opens your eyes
Is there a better way? A new religion prescribed To those without the faith A hero holding a knife And blood is not enough Is it too late to go back? Is it too late to go? There's no one here (there's no one here) And people everywhere (people everywhere) You're on your own Let's see if I'm hearing this right You suggest I should take A never-ending story To carry out the day Your idols burn in the fire The mob comes crawling up I'm reclaiming my mind Destroying everyone There's no one here (there's no one here) And people everywhere (people everywhere) You're all alone 06. Monsters In The Parasol Music & lyrics by Homme, Mario Lalli
The walls are closing in again, oh well
The walls are closing in again, oh well I seen some thing I thought I never saw Covered in hair (hair) Paul's dad is warped and bubbling, oh well Paul's dad is warped and bubbling, oh well And my mind is out here on another wave Covered in hair (hair) She won't grow [chorus:] You've got a monster (distress) in your parasol (why, yes) You've got a monster (divorce) in your parasol (of course) You've got a monster (displeasure) in your parasol (my treasure) You've got a monster (your pain) in your parasol (drives me insane) Paul's sister is an alien, oh well Paul's sister is an alien, oh well I seen some things I thought I never saw Covered in hair (hair) She won't grow You've got a monster (distress) in your parasol You've got a monster (divorce) in your parasol (of course) You've got a monster (displeasure) in your parasol (my treasure) You've got a hole (your pain) in you I never saw (drives me insane) In your parasol, in your parasol (insane) 07.

Tension Head Music & lyrics by Joshua Homme and Nick Oliver
Every day I wake up feelin' this way
I take it downtown, with all the action goin' down I strike a match, strike a match, cook it up! (High life) I'm feelin' so sick (Low life) I feel so fuckin' sick On the bathroom floor Gotta get out and get right Hustlin' little girls Machine, little boys Gotta get out Gotta get out and get right I gotta get out No more! [3x] (My life) I'm feelin' so sick on the bathroom floor (Your life) I'm feelin' so sick No more! (High life, low life) [2x] (High life) I'm feelin' so sick on the bathroom floor (Low life) Sick... no... no more 10. Lightning Song Music by Dave Catching

11. I Think I Lost My Headache Music & lyrics by Joshua Homme and Nick Oliver
You know why
They called and just let it ring No reply The door is open I swear Ain't no use in picking up You know why It's all my head I know So they tell me so Until my head explodes Into my head it goes Tastes so good Oh, but I knew it would Tastes so good Burn like a match house Medicate just to make you soft Love is blind Catch and release me What the hell were they thinking of You know why 12. Ode To Clarissa Music & lyrics by Joshua Homme and Nick Oliver
I knock on your door
I tiptoe on the floor I hope your daddy ain't home right now He warned me once before You know he warned me once before I stay up late So we can keep our date I love that we don't get no sleep So to your window I creep You know he warned me once before [chorus:] I'm the one your mamma told ya 'bout I'm the one your pappa told ya 'bout Now you're in love And why shouldn't you be I'm everything you'll never be You say don't leave Baby, I can't wait Next time, we share my second base [repeat chorus] |
