Powerkiss
Lyrics & Music: Jason Moore
9/96
(verse)
And her watermelon smiles in her sunshine dress
With the sticky feet patter and a powerkiss
On a window in the morning it was cool breeze & Christmas
Like a shock trip stall in the super hero ball
With the wishy wish eyes and the flowers on the wall
It’s a grand thing, a memory, the magic in her eyes
When she’s killing me
And you said it all with your smile
You coaxed me on with your whiles
(chorus)
and you wakeup in the corner with a grinny grin grin
and a super love friend my eyeliner teaser
and how do I do I do I need you they all know
it’s true
(verse)
You quote another wink while I’m tripping in the sink
With a quick give a drink as I’m dancing on the brink
Of a phone call the after all the waiting on the
Master in the last stall
(bridge)
I’m fine anway your love and my play
Can anybody tell me why I should sing a
Watermelon love song
(verse)
You touch it on the lips with a quick slip kiss
And the tragic come unzipped as you shoot it from
The hip of a happy song a symphony
A seven story drop of gravity
She’s My Marijuana
Lyrics and Music: Jason Moore
5/97
(verse)
She’s my marijiuana, she falls over me
A red haired primadona
She’s my angel dream
(pre)
and she doesn’t know what she does
but she does it to me..
(verse)
She’s a trip to venus a one way magic dream
The starlight come between us
In her green managire
(pre-chorus)
and she doesn’t know what she does
but she does it to me.. so lets in the car
and lets go driving
give us a kiss and
I’ll go flying
(verse)
she’s a trip of reason
with flowers in her hair
a silly sort of season
that takes you everywhere
Noggin Poundin’
Music: Gary, Mac Burrus
Lyrics: Gary
(verse)
I’m so torn up I can’t get enough of you but baby
I don’t mind but I can’t bring you down so tell me
If I do and I’ll slow down
Sometimes it gets, it gets so hard, it gets so
Hard not being around you
(chorus)
You know me off my feet
and my knees are Weak and broken
You drive me crazy baby,
I’m tongue tied and underspoken
(verse)
I can’t get you out
I’m all wrapped up in you girl
But baby, I don’t mind
And I can’t bring you down
So if you want me to
I won’t get loud
Sometimes it gets..
Shisiedo
Lyrics and Music: Jason Moore
(verse)
I’m tired of waiting
you said you’d be back soon but that was late last june.
I’m spinning in your moon
But I’m getting tired of you and what you do
To my head when I loose you.
So I spill a little
like penny bottle wax,
are you coming back
And is it grace like that?
What am I to do
when I’m way too much for you,
When you’re all I need but not enough for me.
(chorus)
Shisiedo, don’t think so,
You’re trying, I’m lying
You let go and bend close
You’re so pretty when you’re smiling
And I know you won’t go
I kick start my crying
You let go and bend close
You’re so pretty when I’m dying.
(verse)
It’s all to simple
To make sense for me
So I play like tragedy
And pine for your sympathy
I guess you’re leaving me
What am I to do
When you wouldn’t stay
And I couldn’t say
You look like Jesus,
And you talk like Jesus
And you dress like Jesus
So must be Jesus
And that’s what I can’t stay
Cause that’s the only thing
That makes me feel this way so lost in outer space.
(Bridge)
I’ve lost my senses
I should have never said this
With me and Jesus dying
You’re so pretty when you’re not trying
Drowner
Lyrics and Music: Jason Moore
5/96
(verse)
it’s the quick one wonder the never gonna blunder
the way she pulls my eyes away with a 10 cent thunder
it’s the happy go lucky the never gonna touch me
it’s the tall glass of nothing that makes you wanna cut me
it’s the sally hates jimmy and the polka dot
Timmy and everything that makes you feel like
A copper penny
(chorus)
and you could be a life beat and I could be a drowner
Drowning in your sunset baked in baby powder
You could be everything I need you to.
(verse)
It’s the silly disenchanted from your other distant planet
It’s the way she smiles and the way I take it for granted
It’s the shock trip stall in the back of the car
And the falling of star..
My God, I used to be so good..
Miss Melodrama
Music: Joshua Moore, Gary Welch, Jason Moore
Lyrics: Jason Moore
8/98
(Chorus)
Ms. Melodrama Trauma Mama
What you gotta show me?
(Verse)
Go, Go Fly Away take yourself
On a Holiday to be so wide awake
And lost
(Bridge)
Don’t turn around cause they’ll
Only make you crazy to see the
Laughter and the Powerkiss babies
Girl
Music: Gary, Josh, Jason
Lyrics: Jason
2/98
(verse)
with a pillow on her Brainwave
in slow phase she’s misplaced
with no trace and no thought of ever
coming back there to a blank stare
and cold hair so beware and who cares
I can’t dare try a fight her off
(chorus)
and you can go away and stay there
and I won’t even bother you
(verse)
she breaks away to find the thing
with all the things that she will never get
well she’s coming down hard
and she won’t forget her brainwave in small phase
and replaced with dual guage and no taste
I can’t say I try to fight her off
Shower
Lyrics & Music: Jason Moore
5/98
(verse)
I’m last and shattered, it doesn’t matter
Go take a shower, water the flowers
Fly by a C plane, over and obtained
Go see a B play, underaway
(chorus)
And maybe I’ll show and maybe you’ll know
And maybe I’ll die just to bring you alive
Hitting the stone, I’m overblown
And maybe I’ll die when you’re saving me.. now
(verse)
I can’t remember who hollered timber
To make me shiver and not deliver
So I slip in space to find you
Lost my heart in heaven | Crazy
(chorus)
and maybe I’ll go and maybe you’ll show
and maybe I’ll die just to bring you alive
coming back home I’m always stoned
and maybe I’ll die when you’re saving me.. now
(bridge)
whats that you’re saying to me fly by a open
book sea and we can all let them be so crazy
Ode to SG

Lyrics: Jason Moore
2/98
(verse)
two shots on the clock I feel it’s time to talk
you make me wanna knock you over and out
so come lets have a pout
and pour another stout
they’re playing another tune for me
(chorus)
Hey, Hey give it all way and get it back baby
(verse)
Darlin’ Dynasty pour yourself belief
And we could crank up Richard III
A saucy little tune for swallowing balloons
You make me wanna
Take you to Monkberry moon
Tappin’ Out
Music: Joshua Moore, Gary Welch, Jason Moore
Lyrics: Jason Moore
7/97
(verse)
Wanna be there when you’re coming down too
Should’ve been there when you were screaming out
Wake up Suzi, you’re coming down
(chorus)
You’ve been laughing I’ve been tappin out
Been tappin, tappin out a super hit song
Gonna play it over and over
(verse)
Paranoia coming for the mind to be okay
You were open up to it dear wouldn’t you
To you, to you
Jesus Pick

Lyrics: Jason
11/97
(verse)
wake up if you want to be me
I don’t dig your own sympathy
When you’re flowers in the back of my bed
I like the way you touch the top of my head
(chorus)
when you’re throwing all your chinese stars
to the back of me I don’t think I want to be so far
free to be a cinema star
whats a matter dear, I don’t think I want to hear you
(verse)
ZoSo on the back of an amp 'it’s a matter of electrovoicing man'
When you’re holding to the back of my hand
It’s the front that makes me a man
(chorus)
when I’m dying the back of your car
whats a matter dear I don’t think I want to be so far
when I’m catching all the falling stars in you and me
(outro)
don’t come back to earth you’ve been gone too long
lose your heart in me I will come along
never gonna face all that’s lost in me
open up your eyes
have another drink
don’t come back to Earth, you’ve been gone to long
lose your heart in me I will come along
Better turn down your eyes and stop walking through air
Open up your smile and jump into the sky
from the Give Up & Start Over demos

White Light
Started living on a desert plain
The kinda life where there is no rain
You could hear me say again and again
"This shit is pullin' me in, this shit is pullin' me in"
I started taking what I shouldn't take
A candy cane and a bellyache
Ahh, my life felt so fake
Ahh, my life felt so fake!
And with a code that you couldn't break
And a word that couldn't say
Cool breezes cause the plants to sway
Into the sunlight, into the sunlight
You talk big, but you don't know
All the things that you get shown
Ahh, it's makin' me heavy
Ahh, it's makin' me heavy!
When I got loose, I was up to speed
And all the world fell on top of me
Pullin' me under!
Give up and start over!
I couldn't breathe, 'cause I took too much
A respirator and a royal flush
Lost Pages
I'm not holding you responsible for my lost pages
I know it had nothing to do with you
So if you think it's possible, you could learn how to forget
This could the start of something new
Guess I just forgot it...
Baby, it's all I know
My heart bleeds when you go
Eventually the past changes
Into a bunch of lost pages
Now that I've stopped shaking, I'm plainly saying
You're the only thing that ever brought me through
And with every ending, oh, a starstruck beginning
Oh, a starstruck beginning
'Cause baby, it's all I know
My heart leaps when you go
So if you'll just stay with me
I'll make you never wanna leave
Eventually the past changes
Into a bunch of lost pages
What gets lost and what stays is
A little bit brigther than you can see
A little bit more of you than me
Baby, it's all I know
My heart bleeds when you go
So if you'll just stay with me
I'll make you never wanna leave
Baby, it's all I know
My heart lbleeds when you go
Eventually the past changes
Into a bunch of lost pages
Texas
I once saw heaven driving through Texas
I got a picture stuck in my mind
If I had known better, I would've forgot it
You don't know better till you've run out of time
The air through my window was humming a soft drone
Memories of some roads get lost in the sun
Sometimes the person you're running away from
Will be the person that you become
Sometimes, the most beautiful things hurt the most
Sometimes, the most tangible things are ghosts
And I got a vision driving through Texas
And it was something I couldn't shake
Sometimes the lesson that love is teaching
Will be the hardest lesson to take
Life just becomes old
You feel yourself grow cold
Whispers and old coats turn into someone
And visions of heaven lie missing in anthems
That never get sung
Sometimes, the most beautiful things hurt the most
Sometimes, the most tangible things are ghosts
Sometimes, the most beautiful things hurt the most
Sometimes, the most tangible things are ghosts
Many more lyrics coming soon to b-sides & new songs....
