Joaquin Phoenix

I know this guy and his name is Joaquin Phoenix
He's a really good actor and he signed off on this remix
Yes he did
Yes he did
At the age of zero he was born in Puerto Rico
His brother's name was River and he helped out our libidos
Yes he did
Yes he did
Joaquin Phoenix is the greatest living actor
I think his best performance was as Freddie in The Master
Ooh babe you got me walkin' the line
When I see you in a movie I wanna see you all the time
And I can't stand it
Oh Joaquin, don't you know what you mean to me
He hasn't won an Oscar but has three nominations
Snubbing him for Her was a damn abomination
Yes it was
Fuck the academy
He played a guy named Jesus and he was never really here
Now he's fucking Rooney Mara and I guess he grew a beard
Yes he did
Yes he did
Joaquin Phoenix is the greatest living actor
I think his best performance was as Freddie in The Master
Ooh babe you got me walkin' the line
When I see you in a movie I wanna see you all the time
And I can't stand it
Oh Joaquin, don't you know what you mean to me
Joaquin Phoenix is the greatest living actor
I think his best performance was as Freddie in The Master
Ooh babe you got me walkin' the line
When I see you in a movie I wanna see you all the time
And I can't stand it
Oh Joaquin, don't you know what you mean to me

Eulogy for a Totaled Car
03:30
|

|
I heard you crashed your car into a ditch
It rolled over three times
You really almost died
I heard you were just tryin' to save a cat
That walked out in the road
And that's why you're my best friend
We put a sticker on the door
It said that you're deliberate and you're not afraid of anything
But the morning I left town you crashed that car
I can't leave you alone for more than 30 seconds
I just wanted you to know
I'm happy you're alive
I'm happy you're still out there
Even though the things you do are dumb sometimes
I think that's what I love the most
My therapist was crying at the pizza place
She was with her boyfriend
Who I think was crying too
When I saw her all my worries seemed to end
I knew she had a reason
And I knew you were much more than just a friend
I love you like a man loves a woman
But I'm certain I still love you like I did when we were kids
Even though your family moved away
And even though I look into your face and feel insane
I just wanted you to know
I'm happy you're alive
I'm happy you're still out there
Even though I wish we had a little more time
I think the best is yet to come

Bed is Cold

Can we just please go back to yesterday
I have so many things I didn't get to say
Oh baby I don't wanna be alone again
I just want you to be my special friend
And I know you don't care, no you don't care who I see and what I do
I haven't seen anyone like you
And I know you don't mind, no you don't mind drifting away from me
But my bed is getting cold
And my heart is caving in
Oh darling I know it's time for you to go
I learned so many things I didn't need to know
I've never loved like this before
You always leave me wanting more
I don't expect it to be the same
But maybe then we'll be okay
And I don't expect you to never change
But my bed is getting cold
I never wanted it to end
And I know you don't care, no you don't care who I see and what I do
I haven't seen anyone like you
And I know you don't mind, no you don't mind drifting away from me
But my bed is getting cold
We'll never be friends

Curtain call for an empty stage
Some applause for a dying age
Feel the laughter, feel the shame
No spotlight, no bad brain

I Love Me Too
04:12
|
|||
|
I think I love you
More than I think I love me
And I think I've decided
That that's no place for me to be
But when I look into your eyes
And when you love me too
I just can't deny
That I guess I love me too
We've been out all night
And it's getting kind of dark now
I'll do fine on the couch
Or I can drive until I can't drive no more
Or we can talk until the birds start chirpin'
Howling at the Monday moon
Unless you love another guy
And can't afford to love me too
I know that it's wrong
To keep hoping that you'll turn
Turn around
You told me it was over
But I never
Never heard
Heard a sound
I heard that
I think I love you
More than I think I love me
I wish I could stop
I wish I could be free
But when I feel you in my arms
And when it's just me and you
I just can't deny
That I guess I love me too

Waltz of the Bedroomer
04:05
|

|
I see you every night
You're always looking for a fight
Or you're playing with another guy's hair
But sometimes you're there
In your pretty underwear
And I'm pouring you another glass of wine
And though I try to fight it
Put tape on my eyelids
I wake up each morning and still I'm all alone
Hoping I could see you in the flesh
You're always in my dreams
And my dreams never do come true
Honey all my dreams of you
Never do come true
I wake up so ashamed
I feel a different kind of pain
The pain of knowing I can't go back to bed
I wish you'd shut the door
After every time you leave
'Cause this time I'll be missing you for life
And when I'm old and dyin'
And I've done all my cryin'
I hope to God I'm not thinkin' about you
Or wishing I'd see you again
But you're always in my dreams
And my dreams never do come true
Honey all my dreams of you
Never do come true
I still find myself scared of the ghost under the sheets
I call myself The Bedroomer but I can't go back to sleep

Oak Tree Drive

Outside the house on Oak Tree Drive
I didn't want to say goodbye
Now I'm all alone and I've got no one
My basement's getting cleared
The end is getting near
Time is marching on
And I don't expect it to be easy
'Cause I know things are gonna change
And I don't expect you to care
But my life is getting strange
Where did the days go
I never wanted them to fade
Where did the days go
I never wanted them to fade
I'm too afraid to talk, too afraid to walk
Down an endless road
Far away from home
But I can't turn around and I need someone
But I can't get out of bed
I'm always in my head
I think there's something wrong
And I don't expect it to be easy
'Cause I know things are gonna change
And I don't expect you to care
But there's something different in the air
There's something different in the air
I never wanted them to fade
I never wanted them to fade
I never wanted them to fade
I never wanted them to fade
I never wanted them to fade
I never wanted them to fade
Fade

Where did the days go
I never wanted them to
Fade
I always feel like I'm running out of time
I never wanted it to end, and that's why you're my best friend
Fresh outta college
Lookin' for that knowledge
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go?
Every dawn a new day
Every day there's no dawn
I'm out of hope
I'm out of dope
I'm out of harm
I'm out of charm
Another unmade bed
Another piece of bread
Another foreign land
Another dirty hand
Another day I wanna die
Another day I wanna cry
Another girl
Another guy
Another hi
Another bye
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go?
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go?
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go?
Every dawn a new day
Every day there's no dawn
I'm out of hope
I'm out of dope
I'm out of charm
I'm out of harm
Where did you go?

I feel so ugly today
When am I gonna grow a chin?
When am I gonna get a jaw?
I've been staring at a screen for so goddam long
I gave myself a headache
People will think that I am high
I'm too anxious to go outside
And flirt with pretty girls
Who have never been in love the way I've been in love
I'm catatonic
And I can't stop bringing myself down
I should stop going to parties
Where I always get my hopes up
And I keep letting myself down
I wanna learn how to stop singing flat
And hitting wrong notes
On my little brown guitar
This song is in free verse
And by free verse I mean
I'm not creative enough to write a simple song that rhymes
I wish somebody loved me
I wish someone wanted someone like me
I wish someone wanted someone like me
I wanna be with someone and have it mean
Absolutely nothing
There's too much meaning in my life
The other day I asked a friend to describe me in one word
And he said "sad"
I guess I'm not helping my case much by singing this silly song
But I'd like to think that I'm so much more than sad
In fact a lot of things make me really happy
Like you
I keep failing over and over and over again
I don't think I'm gonna be scared of it much longer
But I'm scared of being alone
And I'm always alone
And I'm scared of being me forever
When are things gonna start going my way?
