Velvet Coffin

i lay you down
in your velvet coffin
each time i'm finished
you take it so well
stroked and still humming
from our last encounter
you shimmer to silence while
i feel like hell
i feel like hell - oh well
it grieves me to part with you
but when the sun comes
i find my sweet solace
as best as some could
first, i lay you down
in your velvet coffin
'cause it seems that i'm finished
you take it so good
you take it so good, you should
[CHORUS]
i know you must get mighty [F] lonesome always sleeping alone
but when the sun goes [F#] down
and there's no one [F] around
we'll join the rastas we know
do the doobie doobie doobie that you [A] do
roll the doobie doobie doobie that you [A] do
share the doobie doobie doobie that you [A] do
and don't bogart the doobie, don't bogart the doobie [A] (i said)
i lay you down
in your velvet coffin
my fingertips aching
my eyes just as red
wish i could take you to
the places i visit
but it seems that i can't fint you
in the back of my head
i'll suffer instead, oh well
[chorus]

Subtly Obscene

I’m the one who brings you flowers
I’m the one who brings you hope
I’m the one who’ll come and hold you
Everytime you break up with some dope
I’m the one who’ll sing you love songs
On your answering machine
I’ll make sure that they’re all about you
and make sure they’re all subtly obscene
I’m the one who’ll take you walking
When the the talking won’t do
I’ll even put up with your shopping
And help you pick twelve pairs of shoes
(Help you pick at least twelve pairs of shoes)
I bought a new suit with my last dollar
cause I knew I’d end up being your date
for the weddings, the christenings, bar mitzvahs, funerals
of those cousins that you fucking hate
of those cousins we all fucking hate
I’m the one who brings you flowers
I’m the one who brings you hope
I’m the one who’ll stop you from shaking
When you smoke way too much of my dope
And I’m the one who’ll sing you love songs
On your answering machine
I’ll make sure that they’re all about you
and make sure they’re all subtly obscene
and make sure they’re all subtly obscene
and make sure
they’re obscene

Miles to Go
traveling round and round trying to make ends meet
i've been from Maine's tiny islands to the shores of the Florida Keys
i ain't got time to call, i can't find a decent hour
anytime at all i guess i could have sent you flowers
i'm to depressed to write about the situation i'm in
out of ink, my lucky magic 8 ball says 'please try again'
i got no patience to write, ’cause i got nothing new to tell
i'd love to see you tonight, but i'm stuck in some motel
and i got miles to go before i sleep with you
got miles to go before i sleep with you
nanana na [etc.]
i'm really sorry 'bout the wait-ress that i met in L.A.
her eyes were blue, as i'm for you, but nothing really funny to say
you know i fantasized, thinking i was kissing you
but then i realized, can’t nobody do the things that you do
and i got miles to go before i sleep with you
got miles to go before i sleep with you
nanana na [etc.]
