Lyrics: Surfer Rosa



Bone Machine

This is a song for Carol Your into Japanese fastfood And I drop you off with your Japanese lover And you're going to the beach all day You're so pretty when you're unfaithful to me You're so pretty when you're unfaithful to me You're looking like You've got some sun Your blistered lips Have got a kiss The days are lit like everyone Uh-oh, Uh-oh, Uh-oh, Uh-oh Your bones got a little machine You're the bone machine I was talking to preachy-preach about kissy-kiss He bought me a soda He bought me a soda He bought me a soda and he tried to molest me in the parking lot Yep, yep yep YEP! I make you break You make me hard Your Irish skin * Looks Mexican Our love is rice and beans and horses lard Your bones got a little machine You're the bone machine Uh-oh, Uh-oh, Uh-oh, Uh-oh (3x) Uh-oh, Uh-oh, Uh-oh, Uh-oh * : "Irish" should be "Island" (i.e. "Your Island skin looks Mexican"), as in one of the islands of the Caribbean (submitted by Brian Gallagher)

Break My Body

I'm the hard looser You'll find me crashing through my mother's door I am the ugly lover You'll find us rolling on the dirty floor Break my body, hold my bones, hold my bones (3x) I'm a belly dancer I'll shake forever and I'll never care I'm a building jumper Roof to roof you see me flying in the air Break my body, hold my bones, hold my bones (3x) Somebody got hurt Somebody get hurt Somebody got her

Dead sea make it float One sip from the salty wine Dead sea make you choke Let's ride the Tiger down river Euphrates Submitted by Stephane Lecrivain

Where Is My Mind?

Ooooooh - stop With your feet in the air and your head on the ground Try this trick and spin it, yeah Your head will collapse But there's nothing in it And you'll ask yourself Where is my mind (3x) Way out in the water See it swimmin' I was swimmin' in the Carribean Animals were hiding behind the rock Except the little fish But they told me, he swears Tryin' to talk to me to me to me Where is my mind (3x) Way out in the water See it swimmin' ? With your feet in the air and your head on the ground Try this trick and spin it, yeah Your head will collapse If there's nothing in it And you'll ask yourself Where is my mind (3x) Ooooh With your feet in the air and your head on the ground Ooooh Try this trick and spin it, yeah Ooooh Ooooh

Cactus

Sitting here wishing on a cement floor Just wishing that I had just something you wore I put it on when I go lonely 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're dying P I X I E S 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 Corrected by Matt Perron

A fist is fast And Jimmy's cast Hang me A white moon's hot The other side's not Hang me It's not time for me for me to go It's not time for me for me to go My eyes have turned Just the color of diamond Just the color The frayed color of ice
