Crap, we have to make a second album now
Crap, we have to make a second album now
People liked the first, but I don't know how
Guess we have to make a second album now
Everyone's watching
Everyone's watching
What will we do?
What can we do?
Will it be wild?
Will it be wacky?
Will it be a romp through dandelion fields?
Guess we'll have to wait and see
This is the second album now
Now, now

I saw her in the hall today
It seems she just won't go away
I try to keep her out of my mind
But she just finds new ways to climb back in
Sandy said she wants to be alone
Sandy said that she wants to be alone right now
I saw her in my room
She made my heart go boom
And I don't care what anyone says
I'm gonna get that girl, I'm gonna get that girl
But here is what she told me:
Sandy said, Sandy said she wants to be alone
Sandy knows that she'll never love me, she's above me
Oh, Sandy!!!
Sandy said she doesn't want to go
Sandy said she wants to be alone

Some call you Schmeeshmo
Some call you Shaymus
Some call you friend
And some call you that guy
But I call you Jacob

The Rave
00:50
|
|||
|
At the rave above the bar
I saw some things that scared me
There were people drinking there
Bright lights and loud music
It was dark, I was afraid
I knew I had to go soon
So I passed an obese woman dancing in a chair
And went out the door, into the cool night air

Seashells [Feat. Sammy]
00:19
|
|||
|
Seashells on the beach like daisies
How many can you fit in your hand?
Seashells on the beach like buttercups
Do you want to be my friend?
No

Ell Witch Hunt I

|
Josh?!
It's dark in the forest
We are looking for a witch
I'm walking very slowly
So as not to disturb her slumber
Oh geez, what was that?
Was it the witchy lady?
No, it just was poison oak
Now my legs have rashes
Josh?!!

Feeding Ducks
00:45
|
|||
|
At the river feeding ducks
Man, a clear blue day
They eat the people's breadcrumbs
But the ducks won't eat mine
I bet if I was better looking
They wouldn't fly away

You I Want Around
00:53
|
|||
|
When you're not here
I feel real queer
I look around like I'm paranoid
Gosh, you leave me with a void
And when you come back from the bathroom
Or wherever it is you've been
I'm get so happy that you've come back
And I feel really stupid
But it's you I want around
It's you I want around
It's you I want around
It's you I want around

Smart City People
00:55
|
|||
|
I visited my friend
In the big big city
There were people everywhere
There were cars and horns
There was coffee and a river
People there were smart
Smarter than me
They didn't like my music
But that's okay, I just listened
And let them talk together about abstract concepts
Then I went home

Those Wacky Trains
00:35
|
|||
|
The train says hi
With a toot toot whistle
Please quiet down train
I'm trying to sleep
"No," says the train, "I think I'll keep whistling."
Those wacky trains

Stupid!
00:55
|
|||
|
In the cafeteria
I looked at you
I gazed at you
When you were looking away
I was walking there
With my tray of food
And then you turned to me
And you looked at me
As I ran into a column
The food spilled all over a guy
You rolled your eyes and left
One word flashed in my head
Stupid, stupid, stupid

What A Lovely Garden
00:34
|
|||
|
There is a garden, don't you know
Dozens of flowers in a row
Roses red, so supple and firm
I tried to pick one and punctured my finger
Oh what a lovely garden
Oh what a lovely garden

Clowns
00:48
|
|||
|
Clowns
How do we deal with clowns?
They juggle at me and I try to hide
But they always see me anyways
Clowns
How can I deal with clowns?
They paint they're faces like children
And their shoes are too large
For their feet

Dove
00:11
|
|||
|
When you're in the shower do you lather up?
Do you lather up when you're in the shower, ha-ha?
I prefer Dove in the shower when I lather up
In the shower when I lather up I prefer Dove

Flying through the wind
Not a care in the world
A smile on my face
What a bright and colorful world
Sometimes I feel like a wacky inflatable arm flailing tube man
Sometimes I feel like a wacky inflatable arm flailing tube man
Words can hurt, words can sting
Words cause pain, such an awful thing
Still I fly like a wacky inflatable arm flailing tube man
Still I fly like a wacky inflatable arm flailing tube man
Sometimes no one knows

The Mirror Song
00:47
|
|||
|
There was a time that I knew of all the places to go
There was a time when life was moving easy and slow
Now I feel different and I'm seeing now that everything's changed
While I was sleeping it seems my body's been rearranged
I was getting where I wanted to be
But now I'll start all over again
When I looked in the mirror I was happy with me
But now I'm starting over again

Menthol Drops

Menthol drops relieve my throat
They make it feel better
I put them in my mouth and say
"Gosh, my throat feels better."

We Can Take A Bus
00:32
|
|||
|
We can take a bus to Selby
We can take a bus to Carleton
We can take a bus to Summit
We can take a bus back home
What a big fun bus it is
It's a shame when you miss it

Lost In The Woods
01:21
|
|||
|
Here I am and here I'll stay
Singing songs from across the wood
Wind is howling and the world is crumbling
Still singing songs from across the wood
Where did you go? Did you lose your way?
Will I ever see you again?
Will I ever feel the same way?
You cannot find me, you left me here to stay
Singing songs from across the wood
Singing songs from across the wood
Singing songs from across the wood

Jonathan The Stingray
00:50
|

|
Jonathan is a stingray
Jonathan lives in the sea
There are other stingrays in the sea
They are not his friends
They do not like Jonathan
Jonathan is not liked by them
Jonathan is alone

Outside My Window
02:44
|
|||
|
There is a world outside my window
I think I'll take some time to find it
But that might take a while, like a lifetime
But hey man, that's alright, I've got nothing but time
There are times when I feel tiny
Like a babe wrapped up in a blanket
I don't think it's something we grow out of
We see parents as ourselves now
There is a world outside my window
Think I'll take some time to find it
Think I'll take some time to put myself into it
Think I'll take some time to make good by me
Think I'll take some time to be
