LYRICS 

This is a song for Carol...

VERSE(only rhythm playing)
You're ordering your Japanese fast food 
And I'm droppin' off your Japanese lover
And you're going to the beach all day
You're so pretty when you're unfaithful to me (2X)

BRIDGE(all guitars)
You're lookin' like you got some sun 
Your blistered lips have not a kiss
The days are lit like everyone
Oh oh  oh oh  oh oh  oh oh

CHORUS (Bass plays E C F G)
You're bones got a little machine

Ahhhhhhhh!

(ditto for all guitars this time)
You're the bone machine

Ahhhhhhhh!

VERSE(just rhythm)
I was talkin' to preachy preach about kissy kiss
He bought me a soda (3X)
And he tried to molest me in the parking lot yep yep yep yep!
BRIDGE(all guitars)
I think you're great, you make me hard
Your island skin looks mexican
All love is rice and beans and horse's lard

A
There was this boy who had two

Children with his sisters
              A
They were his daughters
              C         G
They were his favourite lovers

A D      B       E      A
I got no lips, I got no tongue
      D          B            E    A
Where there were eyes there's only space
  D      B       E      A
I got no lips, I got no tongue

A
I got a broken face, uh-hu, uh-hu
I got a broken face

There was this man who snapped his poke
In little pieces
And then they drilled holes
And then they put 'em back in there

I got no lips, I got no tongue
Where there were eyes there's only space
I got no lips, I got no tongue

I got a broken face
Uh-hu, uh-hu, uh-hu, uh-hu, ooo
I got a broken face

The little thing who loves my mother
Speaks no English
But if you saw her
You'd say "Hey isn't she lovely"

I got no lips, I got no tongue
Where there were eyes there's only space
I got no lips, I got no tongue

And this I know
His teeth as white as snow
What a gas it was to see him
Walk her every day
Into a shady place
With her lips she said
She said

Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic

A big big love
Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love

Lovely legs they are
What a big black mask
What a hunk of love
Walk her every day into a shady place 
He's dark, but I'd want him

Hey Paul, Hey Paul, Hey Paul, let's have a ball  (3x)

Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love
Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love

Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic

Will you take off your dress and send it to me?

I miss your kissin' and I miss your head
And a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead
Run outside in the desert heat
Make your dress all wet and send it to me

I miss your soup and I miss your bread
And a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead
So spill your breakfast and drip your wine
Just wear that dress when you dine

Sitting here wishing on a cement floor
Just wishing that I had just something you wore

Bloody your hands on a cactus tree
Wipe it on your dress and send it to me

Sitting here wishing on a cement floor
Just wishing that I had just something you wore

He was even dressed like a toad
That's what class is

Translation: 
Walkin under the Carribean moon
Kissing and hissing with Surfer Rosa
And then, she fled into the woods
Rosa, oh oh ooh Rosa
I'm a beachgoer but there is no beach
Totally lost without my Surfer Rosa
All of life is a pigsty
???

Vamos

You fucking die" I said, to her
I said "YOU FUCKING DIE", to her
Huh? What? 
No, no! I was talking to Kim
I said "you fucking die"
No, I was just- we were just goofing around
No, no. It didn't have anything to do with anything
She said: "Don't tou- anybody touch this is my stuff"
And I said "You fucking die" like that
I was finishing her part for her
You know what I mean?

There were rumours

They were so... quiet about it
And then the next thing you know...
