Profile Of A New Elite
(M. Girio)
Well boys it's not unlike your father to be hateful
So eat up because it's not polite to be ungrateful
DEEP UNDER EVERY HOME THERE'S BURIED A SECRET
DADDY'S DIGGING THEM OUT SHOULD THEY THINK TO KEEP IT
EVERY MEMBER OF EVERY FAMILY IS GUILTY
OH, GUILTY
IT'S A GUILT THAT IS NOT ALLOWED
Let no stone be un-turned, no petty vice unraveled
And if it's really bad, we'll crush it with the gavel
DEEP UNDER EVERY HOME THERE'S BURIED A SECRET
DADDY'S DIGGING THEM OUT SHOULD THEY THINK TO KEEP IT
EVERY MEMBER OF EVERY FAMILY IS GUILTY
OH, GUILTY
IT'S A GUILT THAT IS NOT ALLOWED
Stiff joints between the bones when they fall from the closet
Marrow dries to the joints like crusty bits of gossip
Well boys it's not unlike your father to be hateful
So eat up because the truth is more than just a plateful
DEEP UNDER EVERY HOME THERE'S BURIED A SECRET
DADDY'S DIGGING THEM OUT SHOULD THEY THINK TO KEEP IT
EVERY MEMBER OF EVERY FAMILY IS GUILTY
OH, GUILTY
IT'S A GUILT THAT IS NOT ALLOWED

Breaking My Heart Again
(M. Girio)
Well, do the Jerk or do the Monkey
Until you get it right
Mash Potato or the Donkey
Get into a fight
We’re gonna play till the morning
Until the break of light
Just a little bit of dancing
Then you can’t be wrong
Just a little bit of dancing
Dancing all night long
You brought your dead weight of a boyfriend
Who doesn’t want to dance
Don’t think about it for a moment
And give me just one chance
I don’t care what you think about me
I don’t wanna romance
Just a little bit of dancing
Then you can’t be wrong
Just a little bit of dancing
Dancing all night long
So get your ass onto the floor, girl
You better shake those hips
So what you think we play this shit for?
Can’t you read my lips?
It’s time to make a move so act now
You can do the twist
Just a little bit of dancing
Then you can’t be wrong
Just a little bit of dancing
Dancing all night long
Your eyes are breaking my heart again...

It's Quitting Time!
(M. Girio)
It's quitting time!
Punch it out, punch it!
I've been here a week
I can't take one more
I'm itching to leave
I'm scratching at the door
Do you know?
Do you know?
Do you know?
It's quitting time!
Punch it out, punch it!
I've done all my time
I've given my all
I'm sinking below
I'm climbing up the wall
Do you know?
Do you know?
Do you know?
It's quitting time!
Punch it out, punch it!
I'm a quitter
(He's a quitter)
I quit!

Speaking For The Skeptics
(M. Girio)
Revealed as just a hoax
Or a table tilt with magic tricks
While poorly lit by candlesticks
And although we're holding hands
There's nothing to substantiate
They're using wires to levitate
I have had enough
J.B. RHINE, OR MIRABELLI
WELL, THEY MIGHT HAVE SEEN THE TIME
OR THE LOVE THAT I'M SENDING YOU
BUT THEN YOU WON'T READ MY MIND
WHAT'S THE WORD THAT I'M SEARCHING FOR
WHEN IT'S YOU I WANT TO FIND
TRYING TO MAKE THAT CONNECTION
BUT YOU'RE ALWAYS ON THE LINE
I told you how I feel
But you will never listen to me
Not even telepathically
I'm skeptical at heart
There is reason to speculate
When I'm put on hold and I have to wait
I have had enough
J.B. RHINE, OR MIRABELLI
WELL, THEY MIGHT HAVE SEEN THE TIME
OR THE LOVE THAT I'M SENDING YOU
BUT THEN YOU WON'T READ MY MIND
WHAT'S THE WORD THAT I'M SEARCHING FOR
WHEN IT'S YOU I WANT TO FIND
TRYING TO MAKE THAT CONNECTION
BUT YOU'RE ALWAYS ON THE LINE
The medium is love
The message is extrasensory
Because you won't even look at me
Clairvoyance has its charm, you said
So does telekinesis, my dear
Use it to let me know you're here
I have had enough
J.B. RHINE, OR MIRABELLI
WELL, THEY MIGHT HAVE SEEN THE TIME
OR THE LOVE THAT I'M SENDING YOU
BUT THEN YOU WON'T READ MY MIND
WHAT'S THE WORD THAT I'M SEARCHING FOR
WHEN IT'S YOU I WANT TO FIND
TRYING TO MAKE THAT CONNECTION
BUT YOU'RE ALWAYS ON THE LINE

Taking Back The Ring
(M. Girio)
It was something like a Tuesday
Well I don't really know
I went out for a walk
Cuz my head hurt me so
Then I saw you kissing some guy
Like it was no big thing
That's why I'm telling you right now
I'm taking back the ring
I was standing on the corner
Back in our old neighbourhood
I went out for a smoke
Thought it'd do me good
Then I saw you kissing some guy
Like it was no big thing
That's why I'm telling you right now
I'm taking back the ring
Well we fought through the morning
But we made up by noon
I went out for a walk
Came back whistling some old tune
Then I saw you kissing some guy
Like it was no big thing
That's why I'm telling you right now
I'm taking back the ring

Drink In Your Head
(M. Girio)
All of the girls have gone to bed
While you lie awake with drink in your head
Babylon come, you thought you were dead
While you lie awake with drink in your head
You lie awake with drink in your head
You've got regrets, sit
You've said some things you can't take back
You've got to answer
All of the girls have gone to bed
While you lie awake with drink in your head
Babylon come, you thought you were dead
While you lie awake with drink in your head
You lie awake with drink in your head
What were you thinking?
Now you've done some things you can't undo
You've got to answer
Now you've done your damage, boy
Is there a way to make this right?
Now you've got to answer
All of the girls have gone to bed
While you lie awake with drink in your head
Babylon come, you thought you were dead
While you lie awake with drink in your head
You lie awake with drink in your head

My Lovely Grenadine
(M. Girio)
Wednesday evening, I was dancing
With my lovely Grenadine
When I told her how I loved her so
She fell and laughed at me
My lovely Grenadine
I love it when she's mean
My lovely Grenadine
Well this morning I made breakfast
For my lovely Grenadine
When I told her how I loved her so
She spit it up at me
My lovely Grenadine
I love it when she's mean
My lovely Grenadine
Today I waited at the bus stop
For my lovely Grenadine
When she got off I yelled I love you so
She kicked me in the knee
Well I was hanging out with Grenadine
She said "it looks like rain
And if it rains all day
Say you love me so
Or you'll feel a world of pain"
My lovely Grenadine
I love it when she's mean
You love me so come clean
My lovely Grenadine

Annabelle
(M. Girio)
Annabelle
Your world has come undone
Quickly dissolving on your tongue
The girl you thought you’d be
Is someone else’s history
From some forgotten seed
WHEN HALF THE WORLD IS SLUMBERING
YOU LIE AWAKE HALF WONDERING
WHO WILL LEAVE SOMETHING HERE FOR ANNABELLE?
Everyday the sunlight hits it’s mark
Crawling up slowly from the dark
The cracks you cannot see
At night are spreading out like weeds
From some forgotten seed
You kick your shoes off in the park
Feel the rush of air that’s singing
Feet touching the sand that’s stinging
Don’t believe a word
You can remember
Your still Annabelle
With no one to absolve you
Because the problem still revolves around the fear
That’s floating in the atmosphere
That’s coming oh so near
