flower, I’m rooted down
throw’n up my petals on the ground
my face is yellow for a day!
i make all the best and of my best day, and i get my way
rock and rolla rocking all over my precious ground
all you take is the piece of the missing puzzle that i already glued down
batman watches my back as i lack in the motor skill and a frown
cool car, black cat, fast heart, happy crash
take one look at your self
would they be proud
figure of mind
keeps right where always been
lay right on the asphalt
make an angel from her sun
praise! the lord so happy and free
like me

bleed your sun down on me,
ill hold your legs above me
gone, so gone, I’m not here
love, so much love, in the country
feel what i need to feel in my head
brightess day that has ever been
live, how you need to live
sun ray from my head to your bed
ring out the clouds that you are always stealing from
queen of a crown that rules the land that i am always sleeping on!
raper of a dream, in my mind when i just wanna be left free
well it seems to me that you cost more,
than a pretty penny , YOU: i cant afford

take a bite from body
share with all the fools
make them chew oh so slowy
enjoy what was once you
feelin pain, no more
i can see sunsets in your eyes
making the best of a sigh
when I’m deep inside of your life
take a bite
share it all
enjoy what was once you
i see sunsets in your eyes
slipping threw the cracks of a day
i feel you right at the bottom
its still so slippery, you can slide right down me
flying down the side of her mountain,
i never hit rock bottom!
till I’m back at the top where we all started from

read my lips,
I’m mouthing the words of diss to myself
and I’m at bliss with everything thats goin on our world
oh my infant
you can cry you can be my lullaby
that will put me to sleep every night I’m by myself
even though your lying next to me
falling right down on my face
and the sun shines brighter
everyday is exactly the same its quite ok
so long, mistress
its time for me to say goodbye
although you been living in my head
im not to sure at all how to get you home
but now that you cry
all over the bed she died on
will you hold hand my hand
and slip me a lullaby so i can sleep with her again

im a ghost,
floating high,
and taking the most of your life
a little hope won’t wait around ,
I’m tight here and i need to go right down
just another haunt, like a faun
taking you right you down a dark dark trail
whats he got to offer
some bread and wine, tell me all your dark tales
i just wanna be believed in
i might scare , but I’m just scared as you
i just wanna be picked up from the ground
i might care, or i just might like you
I’m in love with the blue
my reflection laughing in the sun of glass
is it a crime to love you
black and white crown vic into the sunlight
handcuffed to our secret
LAPD, high-maintenance-fashion-queen
what the city gonna think of her?
blue lipstick stains all over my teeth
i know you love power
i love her power

a breath of fresh air
you must try to be one with her
sold at the market
and you die cause she don’t care
black love at the bus stop
and she aint at all waiting for on you
you may not know where she’s going
but your sure as heaven know where she’s been!
where have you been
what is that smile on your face that
you always seem to wearing proud
where has my mind been
its gone on a telephone, that has no one whispering to me on the other end
a sip of the clouds
you must try to be one with her
sold for a passionate price
but when you die you can say you lived a full life
black love down at the station
and she’s waiting for her hard train
you may not know where she’s going
but your sure as shit where she’s been

Square Mind

lay me right down, I’ve been walking for miles
her pills are round,
just like the warmth in my square mind
head loose, like the noose that cuts me off
at your front door, i am god when i knock
kill me with her kiss
im hissing all over your cat
scratch me to death
i swear i won’t cry!
lay me right up,
i been fucked down harder than the road
like semi truck blowing up backwards I’m her slut

Hole

|
oh holy ghost
your a razor blade slipping down throat
your chrome, i wish i was
so clean, and beautiful, and useful
bruised, so blue
her ocean drowns more than it frees you
your red, in my head
tangle in her waves, in her reflections
games, played hard!
living is whatever you make it
holes in my shoes
so i can real feel the earth you make love on

Roulette

take my hand
ill take you far
creep on the land
gain new scar
i pose no threat
what you see is what your gonna get, girl
you take it right out of me
cause i live so quicky in her patience!
take my gun
kiss the roulette wheel
i know you won’t ever lose
praying hard for a sign
a sign of life
i pray to the night
bring me back in her life
i pray to the knife
take this thorn out of my side
right to your hand
it will take you far
creep on the land
and make new scar

Just Say No(Yes)

wake, up from
down below
stand up tall
stick your tongue out!
to catch the raindrop
you will grow up, so strong and tall
when you die, you be so strong
you think you can go without loving the day
no i don’t think i can
you sing, in whispers
you impress me, with knowledge
do you dream what its like to be free
i don’t really,
cause I’m happy with my face looking like a dirty penny
am i gone, i am copper wealth
(wealth hell)
do you long for the days i was oh so healthy
(before i was a born)
hey teacher teach me something i really need to know
hey people pleaser, i wish i could say no

We're a Happy Family
by SEX MEX
supported by 4 fans who also own “How You See Now”
A tight collection of songs. As I delve deeper into the Sex Mex canon, there seems to be an endless bounty of killer tracks to discover. Catchy tunes, funny lyrics and that swirling synth… oh yeah… but with something deeper, too… Nihilistic synth punk with a touch of sugary pop.
