Prozac
lyrics by Sue Hutchinson

Why didn't you tell us that you were taking Prozac for an experiment?
Why didn't you tell us that you were taking Prozac for an experiment?
"It kinda made my muscles pinch all up.
It kinda made my head blow up.
Well it kinda made me feel like I'm not really real."

We just got a letter from, from our friends who - they live in the Midwest.
Well, she told us when she took that drug:
"It kinda takes the edge off the sadness that is lurking, all the sadness that is lurking all around.
In the corners of your brain, in the corners of your brain, in the edge of your world, in the edge of your world.
All the time all the time all the time all the time."

Soul Mate
lyrics by Lisa McElroy

You got me ready
to be with you
Don't have to be near me
to give me attitude

I called the psychic
to tell me what to do
She said you're not ready
and now I'm waiting on you

[chorus]:
I'm not home
Leave your name and message
At the tone
Leave your name and message

I like your wife
she seems to like me too
We only have one life
to do what we do

I paid the psychic
at twice her rate
She said you're not ready
and I would have to wait
[chorus]

When You Go Away
lyrics by Diane Wallis

When you go away
do you feel betrayed?
looking for a sign

are you alright?
is it day or is it night?
can you walk to the door?

getting up falling down
coming in going out
getting up falling down

When you lose your mind
are there any signs?
for a place to rest your head
a place between the dead

are you still there?
do you think I don't care?
I don't know where to go

driving here flying there
I never get anywhere
finding you on the stairs

When you go away
When you go away away away

I Took the $
lyrics by Sue Hutchinson

I took the money, it's not too funny.
I threw it all away.
You're not my baby, well I guess maybe.
I'll see you anyway.

[chorus]:
I know that you know that I know that you go to pieces when I'm away. I know that you know that I know that you go to pieces when I'm away.
Hey!

I saw the paper, but I don't hate her.
She turns the other way.
You're pretty careless, I couldn't care less.
Don't matter anyway.
[chorus]

Cardboard and paper, I just can't face her.
She takes my breath away.
Cornbread and salad, soggy, but I'm fed.
Sugar and starch O.K.
[chorus]

Emily
lyrics by Diane Wallis

Have you been outside Emily
have you been to town Emily
a rose a rose for Emily
no one ever sees Miss Emily

The captain is dead
is he locked inside your head?
the people thought he went away
but he was in your bed to stay

what have you done Emily
your love will last eternally
locked away in a dusty room
your dead and rotting groom

Can I walk the stairs now Emily?
if I break the door down what will I see?
they buried you and waited so patiently
open the door now Emily

the taxes must be paid
but now your daddy's passed away
the taxes must be paid
but now your family's gone away

where have you gone Emily
sleep in your bed peacefully
a long strand of iron-gray hair
was laying on the pillow there

Puppy
lyrics by Sue Hutchinson

"Daddy, oh Daddy, oh Daddy," said the little puppy.
"Daddy, oh Daddy," said the little puppy when he woke up in the hospital.

[chorus]:
Oh Oh no - there has been a big mistake.
There has been a big mistake. Oh Oh no.

Well the puppy went into the man.
And the man went into the puppy.
And the puppy found himself stuck in the body of a man.
Stuck in the body of a man. In the body of a man… In the body of a man…
[chorus]

What are they going to do? What are they going to do?
What are they going to do with the rest of their lives?
With the rest of their lives... With the rest of their lives...
[chorus]

Teacher
lyrics by Diane Wallis

Different classes make me feel so bad
too many problems that I wish I never had
how to get away from all of their questions
I guess I'll have to call in sick

stay at home, smoke some pot
go outside take a walk
anything's better than being at school

(repeat)

why did I become a teacher?
why did I become a teacher?
why did I become a teacher?
I guess I'll have to call in sick

Fog
lyrics by Sue Hutchinson

You don't know me. And you don't care.
I found out the other day that you were far away from me.
In your mind.
Nobody really knows anyone.
I decided just today that I would put you away.
In my mind.

Pretty
lyrics by Diane Wallis

Looking on the outside
it's so pretty
feeling on the inside
it's just ugly

you shouldn't look at me
you won't like what you see
you shouldn't talk to me
I can't make any sense

Pretty on the outside
ugly on the inside
(repeat)

Early in the morning
I drag myself out of bed
looking in the mirror
fills me with dread

I don't wanna talk to you
I don't like what I say
I don't wanna hear about
all your bad days

Pretty on the outside
ugly on the inside
pretty on the outside
ugly on the inside

(scream: Pretty Pretty)

I Don't Know
lyrics by Diane Wallis

I don't know what I'm gonna do
the next time I see you
I don't know what I'm gonna say
when you come my way

tell me that it isn't true
he wants to be with you
tell me that it's all right
can't go out with you tonight

I wish I knew what to do
the next time I see you
I wish I knew what to say
I don't know you

Is it wrong to wanna
get away from you
are you looking for me
I can't see you

I'm Lost
lyrics by Sue Hutchinson

I'm lost. (4x)

I went for a little ride.
Don't know if I'll get out alive.
Went to find my one true love.
Written in the stars above.

I'm lost. (4x)

I am making up a list.
'Bout the things I'll never miss.
'Bout your dark and stormy night.
'Bout the fact we'd never fight.

I'm lost. (4x)

You said that there was no train
to get derailed and cause me pain.
I say that you've been actin' strange
for a long long time, while beside me you've lain.

I'm lost. (4x)

Melvin
lyrics by Lisa McElroy

Feel like Melvin
Calling to see if you're OK
You make the sound
like the wheels on a train

And the big clock at the hockey game
makes me so happy
That's not the way it used to be

Feel like Melvin
I have nothing to say
Calling to see if you're OK

And the sound of glass
the shots of guns
are over now
with my three good friends
That's not the way it used to be

Feel like Melvin
and every night I pray
You will never leave me
Calling to see if you're OK

You make the sound like a train
(calling to see if you're OK)
You make the sound like a train

I Tried
lyrics by Diane Wallis

I tried but I couldn't really do it
he lied and I never saw through it
no time to hide when you're passing right through it
open wide just go ahead and do it

oh no I have to go
oh no I'll miss the show

Waiting here for something else to happen
you never thought that day would come
I tried but I don't know how to use it
I cried but I never seem to lose it

oh no we have to go
oh no we'll miss the show

Smoke Ring Day
lyrics by Sue Hutchinson

You're fading, fading away.
Smoke Ring, Smoke Ring Day.
You're drifting, drifting by.
Shifting, shifting sky.
Flowing down, swirl around.
Nothing's constant when you're around.
Flowing down, swirl around.
Nothing's constant when you're around.
Constant Comment.
Going through my head.
Constant Comment.
The things I never said.

Who are, who are you?
Who am, who am I?
Forget it, forget it all, or don't ask, don't ask why.
Swallowed down, turned around.
Nothing's constant when you're around.
Swallowed down, turned around.
Nothing's constant when you're around.
Constant Comment.
Going through my head.
Constant Comment.
The things I never said.

Checkered, checkered past. Will it, will it last?
Littered, littered life. Cut the, cut the knife.
Swallowed down, turned around.
Nothing's constant when you're around.
Swallowed down, turned around.
Nothing's constant when you're around.
Constant Comment.
Going through my head.
Constant Comment.
The things I never said.

Queen of Doom
lyrics by Sue Hutchinson

She was the Queen of Doom, she liked to sit around in her little room, she smoked a lot and she thought a lot about the dirty plot, it meant a lot, the evil plot, it meant a lot.

She paced around the place, she cried a lot and looked at her face, she wrote a lot in her little book about the dirty crook, her heart he took, the evil crook, her heart he took.

And they did talk upon the phone. They both didn't like being alone. It gave 'em hope that they could cope with all this emotional dope in all in scope. I hate the pope, pope on a rope, he's such a dope, I need some soap, so I won't mope, nope nope nope!

Mrs. Idey
lyrics by Diane Wallis

(spoken intro):
Back in my hometown, there lived a woman by the name of Mrs. Idey, who had a tendency to wander by foot and by car. The cause of many a search party. Mrs, Idey, where you live now, you'll never wander again.

Mrs. Idey - where are you going?
Mrs. Idey - where are you going?
In your car, please don't drive far
Mrs. Idey

I don't know where I am
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I am now
(repeat)

Mrs. Idey - where are you going?
Mrs. Idey - where are you going?
(where are you going?)
in your car, please don't drive far
Mrs. Idey

I don't know who I am
I don't know who I am
I don't know who I am now
(repeat)
