incubus - megalomaniac

I hear you on the radio
You permeate in my screen
Its' unkind but,
If I met you in a scissor fight
I'd cut off both your wings
On principle alone

CHORUS
Hey megalomaniac!
You're no Jesus!
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis!
Wash your hands clean of yourself, baby
And step down, step down, step down!

If I were your appendages
I'd hold open your eyes
So you'd see
That all of us are heaven sent
And there was never meant to be only one
To be only one

CHORUS

Step down! Step down! Step down!

You're no Jesus
You're not Elvis
You're no Jesus
You're no Jesus
You're not Elvis
You're no answer

Step down, step down...

CHORUS

Step down, step down...

incubus - anna molly

A cloud hangs over,
It's a city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder if she might be, (might be)
Out there and sober as a well for loneliness,
Please do persist girl, its time we met and made a mess

I picture your face in the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic, a proof of the prize,
Anna Molly, Anna Molly, Annomally,
DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO do DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO do

A cloud hangs over,
And mutes my happiness,
A thousand ships couldn't send me back from distress (distress),
Wish you were here,
I'm a wounded satellite,
I need you now put me back together make me right

I picture your face in the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic, a proof of the prize,
Anna Molly, Anna Molly, Anna Molly,
I'm calling your name
up into the air,
Nobody of the others could ever compare,
Anna Molly, Annomally

Wait there is a light,
There is a fire illuminated attic,
Fate or something better I couldn't care less,
Just stay with me a while,
Wait there is a light, there is a fire,
Defragmenting the attic,
Fate or something better I couldn't care less,
Just stay with me a while

I picture your face in the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic a proof of the prize,
Anna Molly, Annomally, Annahaha Molly,
I'm calling your name
up into the air,
Nobody of the others could ever compare,
Anna Molly, Anna Molly

(Annomally) Wait there is a light there is a fire
Defragmenting the attic,
(Annomally) Fate or something better I couldn't care less,
Just stay with me a while

incubus - promises promises

I'm only 23 for another hour, give or take
I'm a fan of yours and I need a good mistake
I'm not a sinner or preacher, all I have is sleight of hand
I do magic tricks for all the boys in the band

Baby could I be the rabbit in your hat?
I'd swing if you'd hand me, hand me the bat

I'm on the road of least resistance
I'd rather give up than give in to this
So promise me only one thing, would you?
Just don't ever make me promises
No promises

I've never done this before, promises, promises
But I'm enjoying the illusion and the things my body says
Now you see me, now you don't, oh how well you disappear
What are you running from and may I interfere?

Baby could I be the rabbit in your hat?
I'd swing if you'd hand me, hand me the bat

I'm on the road of least resistance
I'd rather give up than give in to this
So promise me only one thing, would you?
Just don't ever make me promises
No promises

incubus - drive

Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear.
And I can't help but ask myself how much I'll let the fear
take the wheel and steer.
It's driven me before,
and it seems to have a vague,
haunting mass appeal.
But lately I'm beginning to find that I
should be the one behind the wheel.

Chorus
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there
with open arms and open eyes, yeah.
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there,
I'll be there.

So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive
will I choose water over wine
and hold my own and drive? oh oh oh oooh.
It's driven me before
and it seems to be the way
that everyone else gets around.
But lately I'm beginning to find that
when I drive myself my light is found.

Chorus
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there
with open arms and open eyes, yeah.
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there,
I'll be there...

Would you choose water over wine....
hold the wheel and drive.

Chorus
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there
with open arms and open eyes, yeah.
Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there
I'll be there

Dududuuu Dududu Dududududu
Tomorrow Dududududuu
Dududuuu Dududu Dududududu
Tomorrow...

incubus - dig

We all have a weakness
Some of ours are easy to identify
Look me in the eye

And ask for forgiveness
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes, you are my friend

We all have something that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday

If I turn into another dig me up from under
What is covering the better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we?ll always have each other
When everything else is gone, oh

We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how we try

We all have someone that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you?ll act as a clever medicine

If I turn into another dig me up from under
What is covering the better part of me
Sing this song (sing this song)
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone

Oh, each other, when everything else is gone

If I turn into another dig me up from under
What is covering the better part of me
Sing this song (sing this song)
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.

Oh, each other (sing this song) when everything else is gone
Oh, each other, when everything else is gone.

incubus - wish you were here

I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blueblanket
I lean against the wind, pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy
Happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were...here

I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles a back-lit canopy with holes punched in it
I'm counting UFO's, I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment i am happy
Happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were...here
Wish you were here

The world's a rollercoaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
But my hands are busy in the air saying:

I wish you were here
I wish you were...
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were...here
Wish you were here

incubus - adolescents

I'm feeling out of bounds, out of bounds
I'm running out of time, out of time
I know there's no such thing as either of them
But its doesn't make me feel any better

Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
We're out of time
We're out of mind
Out of mind
Out of mind
Yeah, yeah

I?m feeling overwhelmed, overwhelmed
It?s getting out of line, line, line
I know I?m not alone
Just adolescents, you and I
It doesn?t make me feel any better

Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
We're out of time
We're out of mind
Out of mind
Out of mind
Yeah, yeah
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
We're out of time
We're out of mind
Out of mind
Out of mind
We're out of mind
Yeah

incubus - talk show on mute

Take a bow
Pack on powder
Wash 'em out with buzzing lights
Pay an audience to care
'Impress me' personality

Still and transfixed
The electric sheep are dreaming of your face
Enjoy you from the chemical
Comfort all America

Come one, come all
Into nineteen-eightyfour
Yeah, three, two, one...
Lights! camera! transaction!

Quick, Your time is almost up
Make 'em forget that they're the moth
Edging in towards the flame
Burn into obscurity

Still and transfixed
The electric sheep but dreaming up your fate
We judge you from the card castle
Comfort all America

Come one, come all
Into nineteen-eightyfour
Yeah, three, two, one...
Lights! camera! transaction!

Your foundation is canyoning
Fault lines should be worn with pride
I hate to say it
But you're so much more
You're so much more endearing with the sound turned off

incubus - i miss you

To see you when I wake up
Is a gift I didn´t think could be real.
To know that you feel the same as I do
is a three-fold, utopian dream.

You do something to me that I can´t explain.
so would I be out of line if i said,
I miss you

I see your picture,
I smell your skin on the empty pillow, next to mine.
You have only been gone ten days,
but already I´m wasting away.

I know I´ll see you again
whether far or soon.
But I need you to know that I care.
and, I miss You.

incubus - stellar

Meet me in outer space.
WE could spend the night;
watch the earth come up.
I've grown tired of that place;
won't you come with me?
WE could start again.

How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do.
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew.

Meet me in outer space.
I will hold you close,
if you're afraid of heights.
I need you to see this place,
it might be the only way that
I can show you how it feels to be inside of you.

How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do.
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew.
You are stellar.

The song title is "Stellar"

incubus - agoraphobia

Two people touching lips, hands on each other's hips
Nothing in else in the world but one another
The 42nd floor on a distant shore
I wonder how we've strayed so far from this

Remember when we were just flesh and bone, you sir
May have forgotten how good your world can be, so
Put down your hollow tips and kiss your lovers lips
And know that fate is what we make of it

Please end this, please end this
Before this ends us, ends us, end us

I wanna stay inside, I wanna stay inside for good
I wanna stay inside for good

I read the news today and everything they say
Just makes me want to stay inside and wait
But the better part of me knows that waiting in the throws
Is on par with reading with my eyes closed

"What can I do?", you say "It's just another day
In the life of Apes with ego trips"
Put down your hollow tips and kiss your lover's lips
And know that fate is what we make of it

Please end this, please end this
Before this ends us, ends us, end us

I wanna stay inside, I wanna stay inside for good
I wanna stay inside for good, for good

I'm gonna stay inside, I'm gonna stay inside for good
I'm gonna stay inside for Good
I wanna stay inside, I wanna stay inside for good
I wanna stay inside, don't want to stay inside for good

incubus - oil and water

You and i are like oil and water
And we've been trying, trying, trying
Ohhhhh, to mix it up.

We've been dancing on a volcano
And we've been crying, crying, crying
Over blackened souls.

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time.
It will not be the last time.
There is no parasol that could shelter this weather.

I been smiling with anchors on my shoulders
But i've been dying, dying, dying
Ohhh, ohhh, oh to let them go.

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time.
It will not be the last time.
There is no parasol that could shelter this weather.
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time.
It will not be the last time.
We were trying to believe everything would get better.

We've been lying to each other
Hey! babe! let's just call it, call it, call it
Ohhhhhhhhhhh, what it is!
Oil and water!
Oil and water!
Oil and water!

incubus - familiar

Could there be a familiar ring everytime I sing about.
Cycle the tears everything in life no doubt I, I.
Reiterate till my jaw is offset,
But I'll say it again anyway,
What you give is what you get!
Look at you now, look at you now,

(Smacked in the face again.)
(Smacked in the face again.)
So when the door comes swinging back around and the taste
of familiar medicine is abound on your breath, breath,
please don't come crawling back to me,
'cause you'll know what I'll say,

incubus - martini

She was a new mean beauty queen,
Money, drugs, magazines
I didn't do nothing, I didn't do nothing
They gave her diamonds, shiny boys, city speak, every joy
I didn't do nothing, no nothing for her
You can lead a horse to water but you can't expect it to drink
Now ain't that something, now ain't that something
Yeah, when the world is at your gate, that won't satiate
Why are you crying, you want for nothing at all

Don't be a fly in my Martini baby come on down
The roof is high and I'm not climbing tonight
Come down and I'll give you something (hey) to cry about

Fast cars, bougie bars, try all and then drown in the scars
It won't do nothing, it won't do nothing
Even the best frame won't change your wet painting into
The Mona Lisa, The Mona Lisa
You've got to dry your eyes baby
I know it's your party and you
Cry if you want to, cry if you want to
Yeah, when the world is at your gate and that don't fill your plate
Why are you crying, you want for nothing at all

Don't be a fly in my Martini baby come on down
The roof is high and I'm not climbing tonight
Come down and I'll give you something (hey) to cry about

incubus - mexico

You could see me reaching,
So why couldn?t you have met me halfway
You could see me bleeding
But you could not put pressure on the wound....

You only think about yourself.
You only think about yourself.
You?d better bend before I go...
On the first train to Mexico....

You could see me breathing
But you still kept your hand over my mouth....
You could feel me seething
But you just turned your nose up in the air....

You only think about yourself.
You only think about yourself...
You?d better bend before I go
On the first train to Mexico.....

You only think about yourself.
You only think about yourself...
You?d better bend before I go
On the first train to Mexico.....
