1. Meatplow
(Music By D. Deleo, R. Deleo - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

Fine place for a day full of breakdowns
Takes more than a meltdown to show us how
Throw a tak on the road, stop the meatplow
Got a bullet but it ain't mine 

They got these pictures of everything
To break us down, yea to break me down
They make us hate and we make it bleed. 

But I got a lover and yeah
she shows me how
To understand it, yea to understand
I got a brother and well
He shows me how
To make amends, yeah to make amends with it. 

Take a break from the mousetrap we call home
Takes more than a message to make me smile
I can feel when she kisses me sleeping
but not when the news is on 


2. Vasoline
(Music By S.T.P. - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

One time a thing occured to me
What's real, and what's for sale?
Blew a kiss and tried to take it home 

It isn't you, isn't me
Search for things you can't see
Going blind, out of reach
Somewhere in the Vasoline 

Two times and it has rendered me
Punch drunk and without bail
Think I'd be safer all alone
Flys in the vasoline we are
Sometimes it blows my mind
Keep getting stuck here all the time 

You'l see the look and you'l see the lies
You'l eat the lies, and you will. 

It isn't you, isn't me
Search for things you can't see
Going blind, out of reach
Somewhere in the vasoline.


3. Lounge Fly
(Music By R. Deleo - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

It's ok, it's ok, ok relieve me
pins in me, pins in me, in me you kill me
the lounge fly
the lounge fly

The fly you bring me
I think I'm free but the dogs they won't release me 

I can't give what I take away
and the other understands
She said she'd be my woman
She said she'd be my man
I can't live this way
Please refill my soul 

Don't have a nickel on a dollar but you feed me
My bottles empty but you always refuel me
I feel I'm sinking but you won't 
Let me drown me
I wanna f*ck, wanna f*ck
But do you need me?


4. Interstate Love Song
(Music By R. Deleo, Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

Waiting on a Sunday afternoon
For what I read between the lines, your lies
Feelin' like a hand in rusted shame
So do you laugh or does it cry?
Reply? 

Leavin' on a southern train only yesterday you lied,
promises of what I seemed to be only watched the time go by,
all of these things you said to me

Breathing is the hardest thing to do.
With all I've said and all that's dead for you,
you lied - goodbye 

Leavin' on a southern train
only yesterday you lied,
promises of what I seemed to be
only watched the time go by,
all of these things I said to you 


5. Still Remains
(Music By R. Deleo, Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

Our bed we live, our bed we sleep
Making love and I become you
Flesh is warm with naked feet
Stabbing thorns and you become me
Oh, I'd beg for you, you know I'll beg for you
She holds my hand we share a laugh
Sipping orange blossom breezes
Love is still and sweat remains
A cherished gift unselfish feeling...
Oh, I'd beg for you, you know I'll beg for you
She tells me things, I listen well
Drink the wine and save the water
Skin is smooth, I steal a glance
Dragon flies "er" gliding over..
Oh, I'd beg for you, you know I'll beg for you 

Pick a song and sing a yellow nectarine
Take a bath, I'll drink the water that you leave
If you should die before me
Ask if you can/could bring a friend
Pick a flower, hold your breath
And drift away... 


6. Pretty Penny
(Music By D. Deleo - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

Have you seen your mother girl?
Has she gone away?
gone away and found the pearl
But the price she paid
Gone
When you wake in the morning
Gone
When you find that there's no one sleeping
Gone
Pretty Penny was her name
She was loved and we all will miss her 

How far will you go I say,
Just to bait a mouse?
Shorter lived and longer gone
Can you figure out? 

Have you seen your sister girl?
She's all but blown away
Blown away and lost the pearl
And the price she paid


7. Silvergun Superman
(Music By R. Deleo, D. Deleo - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

Find you in the dark
Read you like a cheap surprise
Without shame
Sell me out and frame your name 

I can hear when the pig whispers sweetly
Jealousy is the weapon you kill me
Keep a dime for a truth you might tell

You towed the line, and I know it was mine
Couldn't hide, write a wave, ride a lie
Let me know, can I friend ask you why? 

Rolling back the days
With my friend I love to play
the "Little One"
Superman with silvergun 

I can hear when the pig whispers sweetly
Jealousy is the weapon you kill me
Keep a dime for a truth you might tell 

Wait for me, take a dive take a piece of my life
(leave me numb)
Wait for me, tell a lie, try to take my wife
(leave me numb)
Wait for me, take a dive, take a piece of my life
(leave me numb)
Close to me, and I'll leave you numb 


8. Big Empty
(Music By D. Deleo - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

Drivin' faster in my car
Falling farther from just what we are
Smoke a cigarette and lie some more
These conversations kill
Falling faster in my car 

Time to taker her home
Her dizzy head is conscience laden
Time to take a ride
It leaves today no conversation
Time to take her home
Her dizzy head is conscience laden
Time to wait to long
To wait to long
These conversations kill 

To much walkin', shoes worn thin
To much trippin' and my souls worn thin
Time to catch a ride 
It leaves today, her name is what it means
To much walkin', shoes worn thin.


9. Unglued
(Music By S. Weiland, R. Deleo - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

Moderation is masterbation
What is what, and what makes you feel good
Nil these things I think about, I think about
Always coming unglued 

Yea, I got this thing
It's comin' over me, I got this thing
It's comin' over me, I got this feelin
Coming over me - yea 

This confusion is my illusion
Nowhere to look, but know where to find ya
All these things, I'm sick about, I'm sick about
Always come unglued


10. Army Ants
(Music By D. Deleo - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

You don't look but you kick me
You can't feel but you hit me
You can't live with the way I pray 

Why do we all have to look this way
I gotta heart, I got blood, feel pain 

Time, time is not on my side
Cause the way I am
Gotta gotta now gotta find the reason why
A woman ain't a man 

You don't look but you kick me
You can't feel but you hit me
You can't deal with the way I pray 

Why do you all have to think this way
I gotta heart, I got blood, feel pain 

Fall in those single file lines
Like army ants
Yeah, fall on into those single file lines
And complete the plan 


11. Kitchenware & Candybars
(Music By R. Deleo - Lyrics By S. Weiland) 

Somebody told me, I know where to go
Somebody showed me, I was last to know. 

Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river 

What I wanted, is what I wanted
What I wanted, is what she wanted 

You read the words and it sells you life
They sell their words, but it's all a lie
