The Spinanes The Imp Years



      Suffice

      No

      He's a dagger talking to you
      Suffice to say he's a little confused
      A dagger attached to you

      Hey angel
      Merry sorrow
      Hey angel
      I'm sorry I can't touch that now

      Bed...quickling off you
      Give me something I can love
      Get this big stuff off me

      Hey angel
      Merry sorrow
      Hey angel
      I'm sorry I can't trust that
      I can't touch that now



      Halloween Candy

      There she comes with her eyes down
      Pours the poison in
      Knows just who will bite into
      Halloween candy

      I knew a girl in Mississippi
      They called her an easy lay
      As they sprinkled sugar on top of
      Halloween candy

      Razor blades and sharpened steel
      Arsenic and things you shouldn't eat
      Sometimes sweetness is not what it seems

      All this fainting and bluffing
      Like a couple of dumb birds
      I wish you'd fly into a window
      Drunk on Halloween candy

      This game we play where you might win
      More likely to lose
      End up stunned and choking on
      Your own Halloween candy

      Razor blades and sharper things
      Cut in dreaded ways you shouldn't feel
      Sometimes sweetness is not what it seems
      Lately feels like everyday is Halloween



      Rummy

      I've been wasted
      Yeah I can taste it
      Spent all last month on string

      Sex is for babies
      And if you could stand it maybe
      For wanting the one you lost

      Dreaming of weddings
      Waking up sweating

      Dreamt I lost my hair last night
      Weakness is such a fright
      Sex inspires such feeling

      The power of erection
      The tallest building in Chicago
      Where did the snow go

      Somewhere deep inside
      Needed dupes his pickled pride

      Lesser more
      Rummy game
      Can't wait call from too late
      Lesser more on
      Rummy game
      Can't wait from Rummy lame

      Quit trying woo me
      Everything is not my fault
      Held a hand with a dash of salt

      Make a play for eminence
      Take a stab at her innocence
      And what is hidden there

      Scars are in her head
      Her hips are marked with stretch

      Ex knew everyone he
      Ever met for everything
      It hasn't happened yet

      Echoes far and wide
      The way that love has tried
      To hang on in its side

      Tried and true implied
      It's all girls by her side

      Lesser more
      Rummy game
      Can't wait call from too late
      Lesser more on
      Rummy game
      Can't wait from Rummy lame



      Hawaiian Baby

      This is a picture of Hawaii that you brought me
      Santa Claus with a baby that you brought me
      Standing by the back screen door watching you wash dishes
      Writing love letters to other just for kicks

      Moving down on Taylor
      Dinner with your father
      Looking for a mailbox
      Someone's rolling in the mud
      Someone does it just because it's cool on their skin

      This is a picture of a cowboy that he drew me
      Letters scrawled across the bottom spell "I love you"
      This is a taste of your right ear lobe can't you hear me
      This is a taste of your left elbow don't you feel it

      It's my heart and it doesn't fit yours

      Graham's down at the bar teaching hardships
      Verlaines, verlaines, verlaines...
      Trucker speed and the harm of having loose lips
      Six days, Six days...
      Sex and cigarettes and slow sad says he
      Verlaines, verlaines, verlaines...
      Santa Claus with a baby that you brought me

      It's my heart and it doesn't fit yours

      Moving down on Taylor
      Dinner with your father
      Searching for a mailbox
      Someone's slinging up the mud
      Someone does it just because it's not on their skin



      Messy Shitty

      Never thought you'd be the one
      To make me feel so shitty inside
      You make me act like such a bitch
      Just keep it up some set act suprised

      How I know it
      And how you show and you

      Maybe you should wear a sign
      Around your neck that says bully
      A doggie always friendly
      Especially happy and moving

      Bathtub slow use
      I think I remember saying
      I thought we were friends
      We're not friends anymore

      Don't lie I try it on
      It's years of history blistering away

      There's been mistakes made aloud
      That's nothing wrong
      What you feel doesn't feel good
      Sad you're stuck now

      A fool I've been and will be again
      That don't sit lightly
      Straight as a pole I stood there

      She says you'll treat him
      I know she'll beat me
      Thought we were friends
      But we're not friends anymore

      Don't lie I try it on
      It's years of history blistering away

      Ain't getting younger
      And I'm here for you
      So doctor - is pulling you
      Well I can pull too

      Just once I'd like to win
      With my head up and my hands
      Thought we were friends
      We're not friends anymore

      Don't lie I try it on
      It's years of history blistering away



      Handful of Hearts
      (written by John Moen)

      A handful of hearts baby
      And all that you know
      And all that you dream about

      That's all you'll take baby
      Finally real
      When you're slate is clean

      You're just waiting

      Racking your brain
      Wasting your time
      Wringing your hands
      Handful of hearts

      I love what you love baby
      I want you to know
      Think you should go and go

      Why do I care baby
      It's not up to me
      I love the way you see

      You're just waiting

      Racking your brain
      Wasting your time
      Wringing your hands
      Handful of hearts

      Hold your handful of hearts baby
      For all that you leave
      Will not compare to thee

      You're just waiting

      Racking your brain
      Wasting your time
      Wringing your hands
      Handful of hearts
