Lyrics

1. SLIVER

Mom and dad went to a show
They dropped me off at Grandpa Joe's
I kicked and screamed, said please, don't go

Grandma take me home (x8)

Had to eat my dinner there
Mashed potatos and stuff like that
I couldn't chew my meats too good

Never take me home (x8)

She said, well, don't you start your crying
Go outside and ride your bike
Thats what I did, I killed my toad

Never take me home (x8)

After dinner, I had ice cream
I fell asleep, and watched TV
I woke up in my mother's arms

Grandma take me home (x19)
I wanna be alone


2. DIVE

Pick me - pick me yeah
Let a low, long signal
At ease at least, yeah
Everyone is hollow

Pick me - pick me yeah
Everyone is waiting
Pick me - pick me yeah
You can even pay them

Hey

(x2)
Dive (x3)
Dive in me

Dive in me (x3)

Kiss this, kiss that yeah
Let a low, long signal
At ease at least, yeah
You can be my hero

Pick me - pick me yeah
Everyone is waiting
Hit me, hit me yeah
I'm real good at hating

Hey

(x2)
Dive (x3)
Dive in me

Dive in me (x3)

(x3)
Dive (x3)
Dive in me

Dive in me (x6)


3.ABOUT A GIRL (Live)

I need an easy friend
I do ... with an ear to lend
I do ... think you fit this shoe
I do ... won't you have a clue

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night for free
I do

I'm standing in your line
I do ... hope you have the time
I do ... pick a number too
I do ... keep a date with you

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night for free

I need an easy friend
I do ... with an ear to lend
I do ... think you fit this shoe
I do ... won't you have a clue

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night (x2)
For free

I do ... (x4)


4. SPANK THRU (Live)

And as the soft pretentious mountains
Glisten in the light of the trees
And the flowers sing in D minor
And the birds fly happily

We'll be together once again my love
I need you back, oh baby baby

I can't explain just why we lost it from the start
living without you girl you'll only break my heart ...

I can feel it, I can hold it
I can bend it - I can shape it and/or mold it
I can cut it, I can taste it - I can spank it, I can beat it ejacu-late it ... Aah!
I've been lookin for day Glo - Always hearing the same ole'
Sticky boredom with a book -
I can make it do things you wouldn't think it ever could
