Sign O' The Times Play In The Sunshine Housequake
The Ballard Of Dorothy Parker It Starfish And Coffee Slow Love
[lyrics R from my own interpretation and that of some close FRIENDS]
Oh yeah
In France a skinny man
Died of a big disease with a little name
By chance his girlfriend came across a needle
And soon she did the same
At home there R seventeen-year-old boys
And their idea of fun
Is being in a gang called The Disciples
High on crack, totin' a machine gun
Time, time
Hurricane Annie ripped the
ceiling of a church
And killed everyone inside
U turn on the telly and every other story
Is tellin' U somebody died
Sister killed her baby cuz she could afford 2 feed it
And we're sending people 2 the moon
In September my cousin tried reefer 4 the very first time
Now he's doing horse, it's June
Times, times
It's silly, no?
When a rocket ship explodes
And everybody still wants 2 fly
Some say a man ain't happy
Unless a man truly dies
Oh why
Time, time
Baby make a speech, Star Wars
fly
Neighbors just shine it on
But if a night falls and a bomb falls
Will anybody see the dawn
Time, times
It's silly, no?
When a rocket blows
And everybody still wants 2 fly
Some say a man ain't happy, truly
Until a man truly dies
Oh why, oh why, Sign O the Times
Time, time
Sign O the Times mess with Ur
mind
Hurry B4 it's 2 late
Let's fall in love, get married, have a baby
We'll call him Nate... if it's a boy
Time, time
Time, time

We wanna B free
Without the help of a Margarita or Exstacy
We wanna kick like we used 2

Some way, some how, I'm gonna have fun
Play in the sunshine
We gonna love all our enemies
Till the gorilla falls off the wall
We're gonna rock him
We're gonna roll him
We're gonna teach him that love will make him tall (somehow)
Aah, pop goes the music
When the big white rabbit begin 2 talk
And the color green will make Ur best friends leave ya
It will make them do the walk
But that's cool
Cuz one day, everyday will B a yellow day
and let's play
We gonna play in the sunshine
We're gonna get over

Dorothy was a waitress on the
promenade
She worked the night shift
Dishwater blonde, tall and fine
She got a lot of tips
Well, earlier I'd been talkin' stuff
In a violent room
Fighting with lovers past
I needed someone with a quicker wit than mine
Dorothy was fast
Well, I ordered - "Yeah, let me get a fruit cocktail, I ain't 2 hungry"
Dorothy laughed
She said "Sounds like a real man 2 me"
Kinda cute, U wanna take a bath?
(do U wanna, do U wanna, bath)
I said "Cool, but I'm leaving my pants on" (she say)
"Cuz I'm kind of going with someone"
She said "Sounds like a real man 2 me"
"Mind if I turn on the radio?"
"Oh, my favorite song" she said
And it was Joni singing "Help me I think I'm falling"
(Ring)
The phone rang and she said
"Whoever's calling can't B as cute as U"
Right then I knew I was through
(Dorothy Parker was cool)
My pants where wet, they came
off
But she didn't see the movie
Cuz she hadn't read the book first
Instead she pretended she was blind
An affliction brought on by a witch's curse
Dorothy made me laugh (ha ha)
I felt much better so I went back
2 the violent room (tell us what U did)
Let me tell U what I did...
I took another bubble bath
with my pants on
All the fighting stopped
Next time I'll do it sooner
This is the ballad of Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy
Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Well
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Well

It was 7:45 we were all in
line
2 greet the teacher Miss Cathleen
First was Kevin, then came Lucy, third in line was me
All of us where ordinary compared 2 Cynthia Rose
She always stood at the back of the line
A smile beneath her nose
Her favorite number was 20 and every single day
If U asked her what she had 4 breakfast
This is what she'd say
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If U set Ur mind free, baby
Maybe U'd understand
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Cynthia wore the prettiest
dress
With different color socks
Sometimes I wondered if the mates where in her lunchbox
Me and Lucy opened it when Cynthia wasn't around
Lucy cried, I almost died, U know what we found?
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If U set Ur mind free, honey
Maybe U'd understand
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Starfish and coffee
Cynthia had a happy face,
just like the one she'd draw
On every wall in every school
But it's all right, it's 4 a worthy cause
Go on, Cynthia, keep singin'
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If U set Ur mind free, baby
Maybe U'd understand
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
(Starfish in Ur coffee, U
will love it, told ya so)

Young is the night
It feels so right
Now that U're mine
Let's take our time
The man in the moon is
smiling
4 he knows what I'm dreaming of
2night is the night 4 making slow love
The gentle breeze
It blows with ease
Let's make IT slow
Just like the wind blows
Let's make IT last forever
4 a hundred times won't B enough
2night is the night 4 making slow love
Slow love
So much better when we take it easy
Slow love
So much better when we take our time
Love's in Ur eyes (in Ur

Eyes never lie
Don't rush the feelin'

Let me show U what I'm made of
2night is the night 4 making slow love

When he get's tired of foolin' around
Juggling hearts in a 3 ring circus
