tim minchin - dark side

I can have a dark side
If you want me to
I can have a dark side
I can develop my brooding potential
If pain's what you want in a man
Pain I can do
I can have a dark side too
I can have a dark side

I called my girlfriend up on the phone
I said, "Hey girlfriend what's going wrong?"
She said, "I'm breaking it off with you
"I feel as if the magic has gone"
I said, "Hey baby what're you talking about?
"I thought that everything was just fine"
She said, "That's exactly my point
"I just get so annoyed how you're so happy all the time
"I need somebody deeper than you
"Someone with a little third-dimension"

I said,
I can have a dark side
If you want me to
I can have a dark side
I can develop my brooding potential
If pain's what you want in a man
Pain I can do
I can have a dark side too
I can have a dark side

I wrote a letter to Mr Sony
I said, "Hey Sony what's going down?
"I've got a record and I reckon it's wicked
"And I think you should s-spread it around"
He said, "Hey Tim, I quite like your work
He said "It's clever and quirky
"But I promise you this
"You could be clever as Voltaire
"But it won't get you nowhere
"If you wanna sell discs
"Clever never made no one rich
"It doesn't appeal to the teenage market
"The teenage market!"

I said,
I can have a dark side
If you want me to
I can have a dark side
I can reveal my tortured internals
If pain's what you want in an act
Pain I can do
I can have a dark side too
I can have a dark side

Daddy never came to my ball games
Where were you daddy?
Daddy never came to my ball games
He never loved me

I,
I can have a dark side
If you want me to

tim minchin - canvas bags

Take your canvas bags
When you go
To the supermarket
Why use plastic bags when you know
You know the world canâ??t take it

Take your canvas bags
When you go
To the supermarket market market
Donâ??t you use those plastic ones
No, no, no
Donâ??t you know that youâ??ll feel better for it

Take your canvas bags
Take your canvas bags
Take your canvas bags
To the supermarket

Just think about the world
And how the world would be fantastic
If we got rid of all the plastic
We just need to get enthusiastic
Start a competition gymnastic
Or a bag making comp at your school
Fuck it, make it interscholastic
Canvas is for everyone
Whether you be rebellious and iconoclastic
Or conservative or ecclesiastic
I donâ??t care if youâ??re loud and bombastic
Or quiet or virtually monastic
Sober or on the floor spastic
Yoga master or completely inelastic
Iâ??m not trying to be ironic or sarcastic
Just do something drastic
To rid the world of plastic

tim minchin - drowned

Your love is like finger nails on a chalkboard
Your love is like throwing myself overboard
A breakdown on a motorway
A heart attack on Christmas day
Like scaling a cliff then falling off
Like trying not to cough

And I didn't see this one coming, now I'm in too deep
I didn't see this one coming, now I'm in too deep
I think I'll just keep swimming down, down, down
There's no point in trying to turn back now

I'm drowned
I'm drowned

Your love is like sand inside a bathing suit
Your love is a symphony with the sound on mute
A letter sent to the wrong address
Or red wine on a wedding dress
Like broken bones in my playing hand
Like trying to swallow sand

Cos I didn't see this one coming, now I'm in too deep
I didn't see this one coming, now I'm in too deep
I think I'll just keep swimming down, down, down
There's no point in trying to reach dry ground

I'm drowned
I'm drowned

Your love is like one last breath of salty air
Your love is like a map that leads to nowhere
A wine glass on a concrete floor
The overuse of metaphor
The straight ahead in a sideways glance
Like the misstep in a dance

Cos I didn't see this one coming, now I'm in too deep
I didn't see this one coming, now I'm in too deep
I think I'll just keep swimming down
There's no point in turning round

I'm drowned
I'm drowned

tim minchin - f sharp

Iâ??ve been having quite a problem recently
Which is quite disturbing musicalically
Involving a semitonal discrepancy
Vocally and instrumentally

You see musicians of different varieties
Prefer playing in particular keys
And singers, too, treat preferentially
Those notes they tackle more proficiently

Now you donâ??t have to be a member of MENSA
To understand the crux of my dilemma
The two elements of me favour two different keys
Thus a rift betwixt my fingers and my tenor

I love nothing more than playing instruments in F
It warms the very cockles of my heart.
The trouble is that F can leave me vocally bereft you see
I like playing in F majorâ?¦ but I like singing in F sharp

I refuse to be beholden to my hands
I donâ??t see why my larynx should give in to their demands
I will not be forced to compromise my art
And so I just keep playing in F major and singing in F sharp
Iâ??ll just keep playing in F major and Iâ??ll keep singing in F sharp

tim minchin - fat children

Do not feed doughnuts to your obese children
You will regret it when theyâ??re in their teens
Maccas might shut them up now that theyâ??re seven
But they wonâ??t forgive you when
Theyâ??re getting picked last for PE
Donâ??t you see?

Boombalata motherfucker
Have you noticed that yo kids are fat?
What are you going to do about that?
What are you going to do?

So you telling me that your family
Has a history of obesity
You got a wire loose in your pituitary
Itâ??s just the way that God made me

Itâ??s unlikely, statistically
To be a physical thing
But either way it donâ??t explain why you
Are in the cue at Burger King

You can blame it on biology
You can blame your physiology
You can point to genealogy
And your social anthropology

You can say you are an ectomorph
That you just canâ??t get the kilos orf
Well you can be what you wanna be
But stop feeding that boy KFC

He weighs 30 kilos and heâ??s only three
He looks like a clean-shaven Pavarotti

Switching to Diet Coke is not the way back
Boombalata motherfucker
Your kidâ??s a fat, have you noticed that?
Your 5 year old princess in her size 14 tutu
Only eats pizza like that because you do
And you, you should feel ashamed
For you have only got yourself to blame

Will be dead of a heart attack
Before your grandchildren are ten
Perhaps youâ??ll consider
A cut-back on extra fries then

Boombalata kiddie-stuffer
Have you noticed that your kids are fat?
What are you gonna do about that?
What are you gonna do?

So youâ??re telling me that your family
Has a history of obesity
You got the polycystic ovaries
Your mum had childhood diabetes

But â?? and in your case
Thereâ??s a fucking big butt
Do you think itâ??s an appropriate treat
The all-you-can-eat at Pizza Hut?

Thereâ??s no excuse you silly goose
For a child with a caboose
Like a moose whoâ??s eaten too much mousse
Itâ??s tantamount to child abuse

Kick them off the fucking couch
Unplug the Playstation
Send them down to the park
If they donâ??t wanna go, make â??em

Tell them they have to jog
Until their jogging shorts fitâ??em
If they hesitate, ask firmly
If they still resist, hitâ??em

Is this what you want for your girl and your guy?
These chips off the pork chop, for the toffee apples of your eye?
Kit Kats in value packs are not the way back
Boombalata Motherfucker
Your kids are fat, did ya notice that?

And you, you should feel ashamed
For you have only got yourself to blame
Your 6 year old miniature Jabba the Hut
Eating half melted Mars Bars from the folds of his gut
Heâ??ll be looking for a kidney
Before your grandchildren are ten
Perhaps youâ??ll consider
A cut-back on Taco Bell then
Perhaps youâ??ll consider
A cut-back on Krispy Kreme doughnuts
And Popcorn in bucket-sized boxes
And microwave pizza or drive through McDonalds
For weeknightly dinners in front of the TV
And notes to the phys-ed instructor saying
Timmy has asthma but he really just gets short of breath
Cos heâ??s 35 kilos above the ideal weight
Of 35 kilos for a nine year old boy

tim minchin - good book

Life is like an ocean voyage and our bodies are the ships
And without a moral compass we would all be cast adrift
So to keep us on our bearings the lord gave us a gift
And like most gifts ya get it was a book.

I only read one book but it's a Good Book don't you know
I act the way I act because the Good Book tells me so
If I want to know how to be good it's to the Good Book that I go,
Cos the Good Book is a book and it is good and it's a book.

I know the Good Book's good because the Good Book says it's good
I know the Good Book knows it's good cos a really Good Book would
You couldn't cook without a cookbook and I think it's understood
You can't be good without a Good Book cos it is good and it's a book and it is good for cooking chook

I tried to read some other books but I soon gave up on that
The paragraphs ain't numbered and they complicate the facts
I can't read Harry Potter cos they're worshipping false gods and that
And Dumbledore's a poofter and that's bad cos it's not good.

Morality is written there in simple white and black
I feel sorry for you heathens got to think about all that
Good is good and Evil's bad and goats are good and pigs are crap
You'll find which one is which in the Good Book cos it's good and it's a book and it's a book.

I had a cat she gave birth to a litter
The kittens were adorable and they made my family laugh
But as they grew they started misbehaving
So I drowned the little fuckers in the bath
When the creatures in your care start being menaces
The answers can be found right there in Genesis
(Chapter six, verses five to seven).

Swing your partner by the hand
Have a baby if you can
But if the voices in your head
Say to sacrifice your kid
To satiate your loving God's
Fetish for dead baby blood
It's simple faith the book demands
So raise that knife up in your hands.

Before the Good Book made us good there was no good way to know
If a thing was good or not that good or kind of touch and go
So God decided he'd give writing allegoric prose a go
And so he wrote a book and it was generally well-received.

The Telegraph said, "This God is reminiscent of the Norse"
The Times said, "Kind of turgid, but I liked the bits with horses"
The Mail said "Lots of massacres â?? a violent tour de force
"If you only read one book this year, then this one is a book and it is good and it's a book."

Swing your daughter by the hand
But if she gets raped by a man
And refuses then to marry him
Stone her to death.

If you just close your eyes and block your ears
To the accumulated knowledge of the last 2000 years
Then morally, guess what, you're off the hook
And thank Christ you only have to read one book.

Just because the book's contents
Was written generations hence
By hairy desert-dwelling gents
Squatting in their dusty tents
Just because what heaven said
Was said before they'd leavened bread
Just cos Jesus couldn't read
Doesn't mean that we should need
When manipulating human genes
To alleviate pain or fight disease
When deciding whether it's wrong or right
To help the dying let go of life
Or to stop a pregnancy when it's
Just a tiny blastocyst
There's no reason that we should take a look
At any other book but the Good Book cos it is good and it's a book
And it's a book and it's quite good.

Good is good and evil's bad and kids get killed when God gets mad
You'd better take a good look at the Good Book.

tim minchin - greed

When I was a young chap, just a little bouncing boy
My family was not wealthy so I had to make do
With second-hand pyjamas and a single wooden toy
A dinosaur my daddy made with balsa wood and glue

But when I turned thirteen and to high school off I trotted
I knew immediately that my dino wouldn't do
Cos I had noticed all the toys the other kids had gotted
And I couldn't help myself, I wish that I had got them too

My daddy made a dinosaur with balsa wood and glue
But before too long I knew that my dino wouldn't do

When I was fifteen years old I first turned to thieving
To satiate my craving to have things the other kids had
I stole a gnarly skateboard from a skating shop one evening
It had bodacious fluoro railing and wicked fluoro skid pad

By the following Monday morning the skateboarding turned to boredom
My appetite for skating was abating in a flash
So I sold my board and bought a pair of flippers and snorkel
But soon I balked at snorkelling, forked my snorkel in the trash

At eighteen I managed hedge funds and got fat by drinking beer
At twenty I owned seven cars and houses on the coast
I fell in love at twenty-three with a Swedish girl called Mia
I bought a 200 quid toaster with which Mia made me toast

At twenty-eight I went through like a Buddhist kind of thing
And decided the material world and I were through
I hooked up with some Buddhist chicks who said that they were twins
But they didn't look that similar and they did stuff twins don't do

But now I'm 47st and thirty-one years old
I have a kitchen staff of 12, on-call 24 hours a day
And a Page 3 girl I pay to lick chocolate from my folds
And rent boy called Llewellyn though I'm neither Welsh nor gay

Now those who judge my lifestyle to be gluttonous and brash
And criticise my excess acquisition and consumption
I say that critics of the wealthy are just those who don't have cash
And who've never had a prostitute spread Marmite on their scrotum

My father died a year ago, to dust he's now returned
And I found my wooden dinosaur, which all these years has lasted
And I cremated it and put it with Dad's ashes in an urn
Below a gravestone with three words on it: Stingy fucking bastard

My daddy made a dinosaur with balsa wood and glue
Which is all very quaint, but I'd rather eat foir gras inside a Porsche

tim minchin - happy little africuns

And if you ever thought you'd like to give money to a starving Africun
Well tonight's the perfect night to do it
Pick up the phone you know you won't rue it
There's money in your pocket that you don't need
You don't need another pair of pre-worn jeans
You don't need expensive jewellery
You don't need a new Playstation three
When there are kids in the world who haven't even got Playstation one

Millions of kids in starving nations
Living their life with no Playstations
AIDS and war, no vaccinations
Living their life with no Playstations

If all the kids in Africa had broadband and a Playstation three
It might not solve their problems but by jove it would make them happy
It would surely take their minds off clean water and rice
Getting to shoot donut eating American kids in their big fat faces
With fuck-off plasma guns
Happy little Africuns

Only gonna get worse
Only gonna get worse

My name is Tim
I write funny songs and sing
And if you donâ??t think funny songs are funny
Well I respect your right
To think exactly what you like
But youâ??re sure as shit not getting back your money

And if you write for a newspaper Iâ??d just like to say
That I read your publication every single day
And I agree with absolutely everything you say
I think youâ??re the most perspicacious and delightful, eloquent, insightful writer
Writing on the subject of the arts
But if you write a bad review
I promise you Iâ??ll come round to your house
And lay turds in all your potted indoor plants
Iâ??ll lay turds!
In all your plants!
Your indoor plants!
Your potted indoor plants!

â??Why are you making me singâ?
â??You self indulgent wankerâ?

tim minchin - if i didn t have you

Yeah. Yeah.

If I didn't have you...
If I didn't have you to hold me tight, [If I didn't have you]
If I didn't have you to lie with at night [when im feeling blue]
If I didn't have you to share my side [share my sides], and to kiss me and dry my tears when I cry.
Well I... really think that I would... have somebody else.

[If I didn't have you] If I didn't have you someone else would do.
Your love is one in a million. [One in a million]
You couldn't buy it at any price. [Not buy love]
But of the nine point nine nine nine hundred thousand other possible loves.
Statistically some of them would be equally nice! [Equally nice!]
Or maybe not as nice, but say, smarter than you or... dumber but better at sport or...tracing, I'm just saying
I... [I really think that I would]
Probably... [Have somebody else]
Yeah...

[If I didn't have you] If I didn't have you someone else would do. [Someone else would surely do]
And look: Im not undervaluing what we have when I say that given the role that chaos inevitably plays in the inheritably flawed notion of fate.
Its obstruce to deduce that I found my soul-mate at the age of 17, its just mathematical unlikely that at a university at Perth I happened to stumble on the one girl on Earth specifically designed for me.
And if I may conjecture any further objections love is nothing to do with destined perfection, the connection is strengthened, the affection only grows over time.
Like a flower,
Or a mushroom,
Or a Guinea pig,
Or a vine,
Or a sponge,
Or a bigotry...
Or a banana.

And love is made more powerful by the ongoing drama of shared experience and the synergy of a kind of symbolic empathy or... Something.
So I trust it goes without saying that I would feel really very sad.
If tomorrow you were to fall off something really high, or catch something bad.

But I'm just saying. I dont think your special.
I mean, I mean. I think your special.
But you fall within a bell curve.

I mean. I, I'm just saying. I...
[really think that I would...]
probably
[have somebody else]

I mean: I reckon it's pretty likely that if, for example, my first girlfriend, Jacky, hadn't dumped me after I kissed Winston's ex-girlfriend, Nia, back at Steff,s party, back in 1993.
Enough variables would probably have been altered by the absence of that event to have meant the advent to mean a tangentle narrative in which we don't meet.
Which is to say there exists a theoretical, hypothetical parallel life where what is is not as is and I am not your Husband and your not my Wife.
And I am a stuntman, living in LA, married to a small blonde portuguese skier who, when she's not training, does abstract painting, practices yoga and brews her own beer.
And really likes making home movies and suffers neck-down alopecia.

But with all my heart and all my mind I know one thing is true: I have just one life and just one love and, my love, that love is you.
And if it wasn't for you baby
[I really thing that I would]
Probably.
[Have somebody else.]
Yeah.

[If I didn't have you]
If I didnt have you do do do doo someone else would surely... do oo oo oo oo

tim minchin - if you open your mind too much your brain will fal

If anyone can show me one example in the history of the world of a single
Psychic who has been able to prove under reasonable experimental conditions that they are able to read minds

And if anyone can show me one example in the history of the world of a single
Astrologer who has been able to prove under reasonable experimental conditions that they can predict events by interpreting celestial signs

And if anyone can show me one example in the history of the world of a single
Homeopathic Practitioner who has been able to prove under reasonable experimental conditions that solutions made of infinitely tiny particles of good stuff dissolved repeatedly into relatively huge quantities of water has a consistently higher medicinal value than a similarly administered placebo

And if anyone can show me just one example in the history of the world of a single
Spiritual or religious person who has been able to prove either logically or empirically the existence of a higher power that has any consciousness or interest in the human race or ability to punish or reward humans for there moral choices or that there is any reason - other than fear - to believe in any version of an afterlife

I'll give you my piano, one of my legs, and my wife

tim minchin - if you really loved me

If you really loved me the way you say you do
If you love me half as much as I love you
You would pluck a planet from the sky
You'd use a star to dot the "I"
In "I love you", that is what you'd do
You'd take a dreary day and you would paint it blue
If you loved me unconditionally
These are the things that you would do for me

Because I need you
Like a fish needs the sea
Like a fire needs oxygen
Like a flower needs a bee
And if you really cared for me
You'd let me video you while you wee
Standing up in the bath - I shouldn't even have to ask
Perhaps you'd even store a little more in a flask
These are just the things that people do
When their love for one another is true

We go together
Like a cracker and Brie
Like racism and ignorance
Like bling and R&B
And if you really want to show you care
You'd let me wear your underwear
When we go to your mum's, for a bit of harmless fun
I just like talking about your childhood with lace between my buns
There's no reason for a big to-do
If you love one another, it's true

We go together
Like a bird and a nest
Like Internet and kiddie-porn
Like guns and the US
And if you love me like you say you do
You'd purchase thirty cockatoos
And teach them to fly in formation in the sky
And shit the words "Tim is God" on my ex-girlfriend's Hyundai
Sure, it might be easier with doves
But shirking challenges is not what love's all about
Love is not all wine and roses
Sometimes it's handcuffs and cheese
No one said love is for free
And if you agree with that
You'd sing me passages from the Koran
Wearing nothing but your Bob the Builder hat
To the tune of Waltzing Matilda
I just love the combination of Islam, nationalism and builder

Because I need you
Like a tick needs a tock
Like bananas need pyjamas
Like a nun needs cock
But if you want to put your love for me first
You wouldn't go through childbirth
You'd agree to adopt, so that you could stay thin
We'll get a Chinese kid - it could teach us Mandarin!
And communists don't make as much noise
And they're really good at sharing their toys

Because I dig you
Like an Aussie digs pies
Like born-agains dig Jesus
Like Jesus dug guys
And if you love me unconditionally
You'd do my tax return for me
Cos it's way overdue, and I just don't know,
I guess I'm self-employed but do I still pay as I go?
And does the threshold apply to me?
And should I register for GST?
And if you love me unconditionally,
Would you let me video you while you wee?
(Assuming there's nothing worth watching on TV)

tim minchin - inflatable you

Your love for me is not debatable
Your sexual appetiteâ??s insatiable
You never ever make me waitable
Delectable, inflatable you

You donâ??t have problems with your weight at all
You never steal food off my plate at all
I never have to masturbate at all
Unstoppable, inflatable you

You never seem to menstruate at all
So youâ??re not angry when Iâ??m late at all
I feel permanently felatable
Unpoppable, inflatable you

With you in my arms I feel we could just fly away
With the right kind of gas I might even try it some day
In this ocean of life Iâ??m never afraid I might drown
We could just float forever whatever the weather
Whenever my inflatable loverâ??s around

Your thighs and buttocks are so holdable
You always do what you are toldable
And if we argue you just foldable
Controllable, consolable you

My mates all reckon you are suitable
I took you â??round to watch the football
And Steve and Gary said youâ??re rootable
Commutable, refutable you

Youâ??re never sensitive or tickly
When I rub you my skin goes prickly
Itâ??s known as static electricity
Felicity when Iâ??m kissing you

Your skin is so smooth â?? I couldnâ??t afford you with hair
You have all the holes real girls have got plus one for the air
Your problems are simple, I donâ??t need my Masters in Psych
To know if you get down I just perk you right up
With a couple of squirts from the pump off my bike

You never wake up when I snore at all
A trait which I find quite adorable
You have a box and you are storable
Ignorable, back-doorable you

Any sexual positionâ??s feasible
Although you donâ??t bend at the knees at all
Your hooters are so firm and squeezable
Increasable, un-creasable you

You donâ??t complain about my hairy back
Or â??bout the inches that downstairs I lack
Youâ??re not disgusted by my furry crack
â?¦Burt Bacharach â?¦Jack Kerouac â?¦ooo

Now birth control is not an issue
I clean it all off with a tissue
I bet my jealous friends all wish you
Were insatiably, inflatably theirs

Donâ??t let me down
Donâ??t let me down
Donâ??t let me down
And I wonâ??t let you down

tim minchin - my neighbour s ass

My ass is getting me down
People laugh behind their hands when I take it into town
It used to be tough and hard-working and strong
But now it is greying and has long since been long past its prime
But it was such a good ass in its time

Just to rub salt in the wound
My neighbour has an ass that would make Tatanya swoon
It's so broad that it's almost impossible to straddle
He had to get a custom made saddle

I know that envy's a sin
But his ass is so muscular while mine is so thin
I know it's immoral to covet
But just one day with his ass, oh God I would love it!

Oh Lord my saviour
Would you do me a favour
I just want an ass like my neighbour

I want my neighbour's ass
Cos my neighbour has
A real nice ass

My ass was once strong as an ox
People could easily ride it from dawn until dusk
But it never once balked out a plough
It was hardy and handsome but I'm afraid now a disaster
I've had to put my ass out to pasture

I should be happy with the ass that God gave me
To look a gift ass in the mouth is a sin
I really should look on the bright side
It's such a big job breaking a brand new ass in

I know that envy is wrong
But my ass is so pathetic while his is so strong
In the old days my ass brought me kudos and fame
Now my ass just brings me shame

Oh Lord, Lord my saviour
Forgive my behaviour
I can't help but covet the ass of my neighbour

tim minchin - not perfect

This is my Earth
And I live in it
Itâ??s one third dirt
And two thirds water
And it rotates and revolves through space
At rather an impressive pace
And never even messes up my hair
And hereâ??s the really weird thing
The force created by its spin
Is the force that stops the chaos flooding in

This is my Earth
And itâ??s fine
Itâ??s where I spend the vast majority of my time
Itâ??s not perfect
But itâ??s mine
Itâ??s not perfect

This is my country
And I live in it
Itâ??s pretty big
And nice to walk on
And the bloke who runs my country
Has built a demagoguery
And tought us to be fearful and boring
And the wierdest thing is that he is
Conservative of politics
But really rather radical of eyebrow

This is my country
And itâ??s fine
Itâ??s where I spend the vast majority of my time
Itâ??s not perfect
But itâ??s mine
Itâ??s not perfect

This is my house
And I live in it
Itâ??s made of cracks
And photographs
We rent it off a guy who bought it from a guy
Who bought it from a guy
Whose grandad left it to him
And the weirdest thing is that this house
Has locks to keep the baddies out
But theyâ??re mostly used to lock ourselves in

This is my house
And itâ??s fine
Itâ??s where I spend the vast majority of my time
Itâ??s not perfect
But itâ??s mine
Itâ??s not perfect

This is my body
And I live in it
Itâ??s 29
And 12 months old
Itâ??s changed a lot since it was new
Itâ??s done stuff it wasnâ??t built to do
I often try to fill it up with wine
And the weirdest thing about it is
I spend so much time hating it
But it never says a bad word about me

This is my body
And itâ??s fine
Itâ??s where I spend the vast majority of my time
Itâ??s not perfect
But itâ??s mine
Itâ??s not perfect

This is my brain
And I live in it
Itâ??s made of love
And bad song lyrics
Itâ??s tucked away behind my eyes
Where all my fucked up thoughts can hide
Cos God forbid I hurt somebody
And the weird thing about my mind
Is that every answer that I find
Is the basis of a brand new question

This is my brain
And itâ??s fine
Itâ??s where I spend the vast majority of my time
Itâ??s not perfect
But itâ??s mine
Itâ??s not perfect
Iâ??m not quite sure Iâ??ve worked out how to work it
Itâ??s not perfect
But itâ??s mine
