Track Lyrics
Placebo Headwound Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Where does outer space end
It's sort of hard to imagine
Is it real? Is it nothing, nothing?
Cause it's not so clear anymore to me
[Verse 2]
Why do birds always fly south
When sometimes its warm in yer headwound
Is that nothing? Nothing?
Cause it's not so clear anymore to me
[Verse 3]
And if God hears all my questions
Well how come there's never an answer?
Is it nothing, nothing?
Kim’s Watermelon Gun Lyrics
6 ContributorsKim’s Watermelon Gun LyricsWell, Kim's got the answer
With her watermelon gun
And all the celebrities
Want permission
But she won't give it to them
'Til they learn how to love
Kim's got her watermelon gun
And it's the consciousness of love
Yeah, Kim's got her watermelon gun
And it's the consciousness of love
And wouldn't it be dumb
If all their atrocities were just forgiven?
But she won't give that to them
'Til they learn how to love
Kim's got her watermelon gun
And it's the consciousness of love
Yeah, Kim's got her watermelon gun
And it's the consciousness of love
She won't give it to them
She won't give it to them
She won't give it to them
Christmas at the Zoo Lyrics
6 ContributorsChristmas at the Zoo LyricsThis song appears on the Lips' 1995 album Clouds Taste Metallic.
Here Wayne’s narrator describes freeing animals locked up at the zoo, only to find that they don’t leave.There wasn't any snow on Christmas eve
And I knew what I should do
I thought I'd free the animals all locked up at the zoo
I opened up the fence where the peacocks were
The llamas were unleashed
The snakes and seals could all get out
But they refused to leave
All of the animals agreed
They're not happy at the zoo
But they preferred to save themselves
They seemed to think they could
The elephants, orangutans
All the birds and kangaroos all said
"Thanks but no thanks man"
To be concerned is good
It started to snow on Christmas Eve
In the middle of the night
Walking through the state park zoo
And everything is white
