I kneel before the green light of her singing crayon eyes

The only girl I've ever loved
Was born with roses in her eyes
But then they buried her alive
One evening, 1945
With just her sister at her side
And only weeks before the guns
All came and rained on everyone
Now she's a little boy in Spain
Playing pianos filled with flames
On empty rings around the sun
All sing to say my dream has come
But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on
And now we ride the circus wheel
With your dark brother wrapped in white
Says it was good to be alive
But now he rides a comet's flame
And won't be coming back again
The Earth looks better from a star
That's right above from where you are
He didn't mean to make you cry
With sparks that ring and bullets fly
On empty rings around your heart
The world just screams and falls apart
But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on
And here's where your mother sleeps
And here is the room where your brothers were born
Indentions in the sheets
Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore
And it's so sad to see the world agree
That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes

Makes babies to breathe
With their hearts hanging open all over the sheets
As soft as beets in some brown dresser drawer
And with bees in her breath and the rest of her ringing
They'll sting through her chest with a force hard and beating
Until wonderfully wet she will get
Until she's soaked inside her clothes
And there is no sorry to be sorry for
For a roll around the floor some afternoon so sound and soft
It made her swallow all her sweat
With every bit of breath she coughs
And when the day it came to pour all her babies
All across the bathroom floor
She will be swimming in them all forevermore

Pretending to laugh while your eyes well up with tears is the worst way to deal with the fact that you fell asleep first at the slumber party. If you want to really show up those cunts, just be like “What?” and leave it on—for days if you have to.
I guess he got so tired of everyone being like, "Hey Yan, what's your favorite food again?" that he just went ahead and printed up a t-shirt so from now on he can just point and make a face that means, "Here's your answer, dick."
I love publicity stunts.

Dear Senator McCain,
We were bummed to hear that Jackson Browne recently sued you over your use of his song "Running on Empty" in a campaign ad. We, The Pink Spiders, think it's uncool that someone would try and mess with your quest for total Republican world domination. Here's the thing: most 18-30-year-olds have no idea who the hell that guy is. I mean, has his song ever been on MTV's Total Request Live? Or an iPod commercial? We think not.
That said, we understand your genius in using contemporary music to reflect your concerns for your constituency, and we figured we could help you out by letting you use one of our ultra-popular smash hits for your next campaign ad. We're young and good-looking, something your campaign could use a dose of.
Take, for example, our new single "Gimme Chemicals." This one speaks directly to many of the issues that your voters care about: a national health care system, medical insurance reform, and especially the skyrocketing costs of the many prescription pharmaceuticals that folks your age are known to take in mass quantities. We all know how much you senior citizens like to party with those "little blue pills," right?
And if that song doesn't catch your attention, there's plenty more from our brand new record, Sweat It Out (for release on Sept. 23), that pretty much speak for themselves in telling voters what to expect from a McCain Presidency: "Here Comes Trouble," "Settling For You," "Stranglehold," "Trust No One," and "Falling With Every Step." Isn't it a crazy coincidence that pretty much ALL of our songs work for your campaign? Wow. See for yourself -- click here to preview all our tracks.
The Pink Spiders and John McCain: it's a match made in heaven. With our help, we think you'll be elected Supreme Emperor of America with no Sweat.
Rock on, (as Paris Hilton said) "old grey-haired dude!"
Love,Matt Friction
The Pink Spiders
