Damien Jurado Motorbike 7"

Motorbike

Out comes a man to ride his motorbike
He has a helmet that he wears
He has his goggles to protect his eyes
>From the wind
>From the rain
>From the flies

Motorbike, motorbike, motorbike
Motorbike, motorbike, motorbike

he cruises fast along the interstate
Without a worry on his mind
When out of nowhere comes a garbage truck
It kills a man and smashes his brains in

Motorbike, motorbike, motorbike
Motorbike, motorbike, motorbike
Motorbike, motorbike, motorbike



Broken Chain

You got your bike
It doesn't work
The chain fell off
You got your bike
It doesn't work
The chain fell off

Leave your helmet home
You won't wear it anyway
Leave your helmet home
You won't wear it anyway

You got your car
It doesn't work
The wheel came off
You got your car
It doesn't work
The wheel came off

So leave your seatbelt off
You won't wear it anyway
So leave your seatbelt off
You won't wear it anyway

You got your bike
It doesn't work
The chain fell off
You got your bike
It doesn't work
The chain fell of

Leave your helmet home
You won't wear it anyway
Leave your helmet home
You won't wear it anyway
Anyway
Anyway



Farewell Janitor

Gather round friends
You're about to see something completely shocking
The sane pretend
In fact it will have this whole world talking
About this incident

Shocking to my head
And you should all know
That I have nothing left to hide
Now that you have seen the inside
I bid you all goodnight

Turn out the the light

And you should all know
That I have nothing left to hide
Now that you have seen the inside
I bid you all goodnight

Turn out the light
Turn out the light



Bicycle

I got a bicycle
With new reflectors
Colorful streamers
Ride past my neighbors

I got this brand new bike
It's just a bicycle
It's got a basket
And it rings it sings

And all the kids they flip me off
As I am riding by
They just want my b-i-k-e
It's m-i-n-e mine

I got a bicycle
With new reflectors
Colorful streamers
Ride past my neighbors

And all the kids they want my bike
Cause they know it is the best
All the kids they want my bike
Cause it's better than the rest

All the kids they flip me off
As I am flying by
And they just want my
All the kids they piss me off
As I am riding by
And they just want b-i-k-e
It's m-i-n-e mine
