Lyrics
She's A Bitch
I've Finally
Broken A Heart
Come To Me
Dear
Dulberryherd
Durham
Gallops On The Loose
Tight As I Can
She's A Bitch
Outside she is standing, she’s knocking on my door
She’s trying to get in here, I see her face I’m thinking
“Should I let her in?”
But I’m afraid she might confuse me
Many years ago she made me fall in love
First she really helped me, but later when she changed
I tried to keep her but I failed
And now she’s going to seduce me
She’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch,
Better lock her out now!
She’s really not that bad but when I think of how I lost her
Of how she fell in love with someone else when she told me
She needed time to be
Alone with only her to care about
Or when she dropped her boyfriend and asked me if I could come
I gave her another chance, which she failed to use
She must have thought she couldn’t lose
I get so angry I could shout
She’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch,
Better lock her out now!
She’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch,
Better block her out now!
Outside in the jungle where she might find what it’s like to be on her own
Yeah she just might find what it’s like on her own
She’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch
Better lock her out now!
She’s really not that bad but when I think of how I lost her
Of how she fell in love with someone else when she told me
She needed time to be
Alone with only her to care about
She’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch,
Better lock her out now!
She’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch, she’s a bitch,
Better block her out now!

I've Finally Broken A Heart
Throughout our history
There have been mysteries
Stripped down by you and me
To dirty fantasies
And I’m about to get associated with the ones you know
When I was twenty-three
I spent the random week
Making the woodworms squeak
With such a dubious freak
And I could pack my bags at anytime I felt like doing so
And I broke a heart
I’d finally broken a heart
And you got the part
By applying for it right from the start
I was to write a book
About a charming crook
Blessed with the kind of look
That made the viewer cook
And as I should I would seclude a sequel that would feature you.
But then my editor
Complained your character
Was such a predator’s
So I replied that her
Commercial instincts simplified the plot more than I thought they should
Then I broke a heart
I’d finally broken a heart
And she got the part
She’d been applying for it right from the start
Well she was clean and sweet
And seldom indiscreet
Except when she and me
Were selling green seaweed
In Alabama where they have a law against us coming ‘round
And she would vow to me
That she would always be
Behind the Christmas tree
But then I came to realize
I’d rather ramble-round a while more than to settle down
Then I broke a heart
I’ ve finally broken a heart
And she got the part
By applying for it right from the start

Come To Me
I’ll tell you about all I’ve been doing
These seventy eight million years
There’s horses and women I’ve been screwing
I’ve wasted a great many tears
“Come to me, come to me, come to me now!”
Hillary Clinton said
“The President’s off in somebody’s bed
I must have you instead”
These are the things I’ve been thinking
Since Abraham Lincoln died:
There’s black people giving up singing
As whities smoke Rapper’s Delight
“Come to me, come to me, come to me now!”
Ella Fitzgerald sang
“You’re making it seem as if I can’t scream
But it’s all inside your head”
So six little tin cans have fallen
And seven is ready to go
I’ve noticed my tentacles have swollen
They’re bigger then ever before
“Come to me, come to me, come to me now!”
The lady in the wardrobe sighs
“My octopus sings any old hymn
You will request tonight”

Dear
Be yourself and no one else and you’ll be free
See the river bring the water back to sea
Don’t worry now, don’t worry, love
Gets through somehow
I’m thinking of you now
Be like butterflies and buzz around a tree
Feel the sun will shine a light on you and me
Don’t worry now, don’t worry, love
Gets through somehow
I’m thinking of you now
Dear, eventually we’re bound to disappear
So hear me sing a song of love while I’m still here
Don’t worry now, don’t worry, love
Gets through somehow
I’m thinking of you now

Dulberryherd
You scratch your bags for money
Just fingertips and void
You gambled some and won it
All but you don’t have a coin
You’re fed up with your dayjob
Where you just get annoyed
And every new liaison
Means no more than a toy
If you make it in Dulberryherd
You’ll make it all over the world
There must be something out there
Something higher than these walls
That keep you trapped inside here
With no more than your balls
To fiddle around with, you wither away
While no one cares to call
Cause you don’t have the problem
That people like to solve
If you make it in Dulberryherd
You’ll make all over the world
Look out! Moonwalker,
Watch out where you stray
After cheering is up for forty odd years
Someone’s gonna make you pay
Wake up! Moonwalker
It’s time to face the day
We blame you for all, for you have it all
You’ve got to entertain!
You’ve made it all over the world
But you’re hated in Dulberryherd

Durham
He knows you’re in a mess so he wishes you success. He’s cruel
You’ll never pass the test but you’re trying nonetheless. He drools
Singing Hallelujah’s someday gonna do-ya harm
Especially when you worship Him the way you did in Durham
The King denies he ever knew her or her funny name
Whoever raised that question surely must have been insane
Cinderella thought that loving could be bought with charm
That was just before they dug her from the port in Durham
Do you want her so much you just can’t abide that she’s only quenching her
thirst
You and I are both gonna find out that someone’s taken her first
That’s the curse
Ariel Sharon came in shoveling my home today
He said he had this roadmap he wanted me to help erase
“Sure” I told the Boer, “but first let us secure your farm”
Next thing I remember lightning struck The Moon in Durham
Singing Hallelujah’s someday gonna do-ya harm
Especially when you worship Him the way you did in Durham
Do you want her so much you just can’t abide that she’s only quenching her
thirst
You and I are both gonna find out that someone’s making it worse
That’s the curse

Gallops On The Loose
With her shoes of leather and her hair like silk
With her castagnette-eyes and her teeth like milk
She’s been flirting since the cradle
She’ll be flirting in her coffin still
She’ll be flirting when she’s able
Cause the flirting may replace a pill
She directs the weather from her windowsill
She’s an Indian in feathers; she’s your Buffalo Bill
As she rides across the dessert
With her arrows and her moose-to-kill
And it never really matters
If she’s hungry, or just seeking thrill
She adores the cowboy that adores her too
She is so adorable you'll go cuckoo
As she rides across the dessert
With her arrows and shallow noose
And she’s some kind of a hazard
As she gallops on the loose
:: Xavier Baudet 2004 ::
Tight As I Can
She’s a good girl
She’s got the power
To change my world
She’s like a shower
She’s like the wind
That blows my mind
When she walks in
It feels like I’m high
She has a way
Just to persuade me
To hold her
So I hold her
As tight as I can
I feel so much older
And she understands
All I have told her
I don’t want it to go
I couldn’t miss it
That’s a thing that I know
And better admit
I’ll always say
What I’ve just told you
I love her
So I hold her
As tight as I can
