Chef LeClam Great music to sauté some garlic to. Heady, tender, yet distinctively fuzzy. Not unlike a fine Georgia, USA peach. Love this! Keep cooking. Favorite track: The Mourning Cometh.

Sabbath 02:29
We were tired, I was broke, sleeping in, lost control, but that don't matter now, because it's Sunday morning. We got drunk last night, got into a fight, but that don't matter now, because it's Sunday Morning. that don't matter now, because it's Sunday Morning. I know that it will be okay, when I hold in the morning sun, All out hopes and troubles fade away... Stressed and strung out for days, we been stuck in our ways, but that don't matter now, because it's Sunday Morning. Say I hit on your friends, you just laughed and joined in, but that don't matter now, because it's Sunday Morning. I know that it will be okay, when I hold I when the day is done, All out hopes and troubles fade away... We are one. I know that it will be okay, when I hold in the morning sun, All out hopes and troubles fade away...

I've been studyin' law, I guess it's Murphy's for you, and I'm telling you now I think it's all bad news. I've been hittin' the ground, pounding pavement for you, but I'm telling you now I think it's all bad news. You look like you don't even care, but why would you stay away for so long? You look like shit your weak and tired, with bags under your eyes; I'll cry when you're gone. I've been thinkin' it out, wondering 'what will I do?' When it's all 'he said, she said,' I think it's all bad news. So I tuck it away, to the back of my brain, until it's too late to say, 'I think it's all bad news.' You look like you don't even care, but why would you stay away for so long? You look like shit your weak and tired, with bags under your eyes; I'll cry when you're gone. Your face is burned in my head, but even that will not do, Too bad it's too late to say 'I think it's all bad news.' And when you are gone, I'll still have memories of you, Silver line to the cloud, I guess there's my good news. I guess there's my good news, I guess there's my good news, I guess there's my good news, I guess it's all bad news.

Father, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.

Boyfriend 02:37
In a jar in a drawer in the dresser of your room hides all of the secrets that you keep. Yeah, you write them down with a silly fucking frown and keep them hidden there from me, but I'm wise to your tricks because I really get my kicks trying to find out what makes you tick. So, c'mon down to this shitty little town because I'm missing you; it's making me sick. Whoa, I'm here without you baby and oh, Whoa, I think I'll call you maybe, because you got something that I really need. You got me begging on my hands and knees. So, baby why don't you come here to me? There's a vacant space in this cozy little place I usually call my heart, and I don't know what to do because I'm saving it for you and I hate it that we're still apart, but don't you worry though because I hope you know that I will never mess around on you. I couldn't do you wrong, and I sing you like a song, and I hope that you are singing me too.

I'm smokin' two grams a day, Wonderin' when I'll get paid, Started chasing after you and then went out of my mind. I went out thinking last night, while chugging pints of advice, a few turned into too many and I fell in the floor. I know, I know, I know, It could be true what they say about me, I know, I know, I know, Everything is new, but the same. I know, I know, I know, It could be true what they say, but it won't be long, till I'm coming home. The plan was laid out in stone, but when I was on my own, years flew by like days; I just laid, scared on the floor. When I woke up I was bored, of being drunk, stoned and poor. Find a new grey hair each day and I'm just twenty four. I know, I know, I know, It could be true what they think about me, I know, I know, I know, Everything is new, but the same. I know, I know, I know, It could be true what they say, but it won't be long, till I'm coming home.

When you woke me up again, I had a feeling it's all I ever wanted. When you woke me up again, I had feeling it's all I ever needed, When you woke me up again, I feel it so.

Clingy 01:44
Everything you do, I'll be loving you, I'm telling you, I'm begging you, I'm trying to be true to you, Oh, in everything I do. Everything you do, I'll be watching you, I'm telling you, I'm begging you, I'm trying to be true to you, Oh, in everything I do. And I'm never gonna feel this way again, in everything I do, Never gonna be alone when I'm with friends, in everything I do, Everything is gonna be alright just when you say you love me too. Everything I do, I'll be loving you, I'm telling you, I'm begging you, I'm trying to be true to you, Oh, in everything I do. Everything you do, I'll be watching you, I'm telling you, I'm begging you, I'm trying to be true to you, Oh, in everything I do. And I'm never gonna feel this way again, in everything I do, Never gonna be alone when I'm with friends, in everything I do, Everything is gonna be alright just when you say you love me too. I'll be loving you, I'll be loving you, I'll be watching you, I'll be loving you, I'm telling you, I'm begging you, I'm trying to be true to you, Oh, in everything I do.

Ready? 01:59
I know you're feeling so lonely and things are bad. I know you think getting wasted was all you had. I asked you for the answers, you sat and stared; things that we lost forever: the friends you had and things that we shared. I know you're ready for this. You know I'm ready for this now. I know the things that you said, you know the things that you said. I know you're ready for this. You know I'm ready for this now. I know the things that you did, you know the things that you did. AND I WONDER: What would have changed if you hadn't gotten short sighted? You lost your range. You are a slave to desire. You got it bad. I know I preach to the choir. I think it's sad those kids won't have a dad. I know you're ready for this. You know I'm ready for this now. I know the things that you said, you know the things that you said. I know you're ready for this. You know I'm ready for this now. I know the things that you did, you know the things that you did.

The Itch 02:21
Everyone has an itch they are trying to scratch, Way deep inside, Some scratch it with booze, some drugs, some food, but no matter your method the itch remains the same. GODDAMN, I got the itch again. GODDAMN, I got it deep in my skin. GODDAMN, I'm gonna scratch it again. GODDAMN, I got the itch. And it is fine at first, but like tears in skin it creates a hole. The more you scratch it, the bigger that hole gets and the bigger that hole gets the more you scratch. Before you know it, you are a slave to it. GODDAMN, I got the itch again. GODDAMN, I got it deep in my skin. GODDAMN, I'm gonna scratch it again. GODDAMN, I got the itch. Ooooooooo.....YEAH! Go on and scratch it again, Go on and scratch it again, Go on and scratch it again, YEAH YEAH YEAH Go on and scratch it again. GODDAMN, I got the itch again. GODDAMN, I got it deep in my skin. GODDAMN, I'm gonna scratch it again. GODDAMN, I got the itch.
