Lacerate, rendering for release
Set free souls through holes in their skin
Murdered or have they been saved?

Bleeding corpse his work of art
Human flesh, a canvas
Craftsman of macabre creations
He can’t control it, makes him whole compelled to

Lacerate, rendering for release
Slicing through the victims and then he stands back
To admire what he has done

Mutilate, ruptured figures sprawl
Slaughtered in a rage now left to be found
A gristly gift of art

Mangle them ripping death, lacerate them
Stunning victims with a club abducted with stealth
Taken to his home
Ropes and chains restrain his living subject of art he stabs

Grating with a jagged edge his prey screams in pain
Writhing under his knife
Driven to improve his victims through gruesome design
He cannot stop, compelled to

Lacerate, rendering for release
Mutilate now it’s time to slice
Mangle them ripping death, lacerate them, oh

Lacerate, rendering for release
Slicing through the victims and the he stands back
To admire what he has done

Mutilate, ruptured figures sprawl
Slaughtered in a rage now left to be found
A grisly gift of art

Lacerate

My little darling
Don’t you cry, it makes you look older
Common now, hey, don’t you be down
I want you around, I want you around
I want you around

Here’s my plan, I’m losing the halo
It’s time to lay low man
Some plan, come the high water
I’ll be your drowning man

My little darling
Don’t you cry, it makes you look older
Common now, hey, don’t you be down
I want you around, I want you around
I want you around, I want you around
I want you around

While I’m doing battle with myself and me
I’m doing battle with gravity
And I can’t face myself alone
I can’t bear to be alone with me

Hey, don’t you be down

I want you around
I want you around
I want you around
…

‘Cause there’s the girl that you were after
Feel your heart beating faster now
There’s the girl that you were after
Can you say that you don’t want her anymore?

Just take my word now ’cause you know it’s true
She ain’t good enough for the likes of you
You better hear what I say
I can tell your eyes are just about to give you away

‘Cause there’s the girl that you were after
Feel your heart beating faster now
There’s the girl that you were after
And all the time you can’t get past her

There’s the girl that you were after
Broken glass, complete disaster
There’s the girl that you were after
Can you say that you don’t want her anymore?
Oh oh oh oh

I believed you once when you explained
That it wasn’t so tough to forget her name

‘Cause there’s the girl that you were after
Feel your heart beating faster now
There’s the girl that you were after
And all the time you can’t get past her

There’s the girl that you were after
Broken glass, complete disaster
There’s the girl that you were after
Can you say that you don’t want her anymore?
Oh oh oh oh oh

There’s the girl
There’s the girl
Oh there’s the girl
There’s the girl

Everybody knows, a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa’s on his way
He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mothers child is gonna spy
To see if reindeers really know how to fly

And so I’m offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety two
Although it’s been said many times, many times
Merry Christmas to you

I thought about tall along
I used to doubt you
Guess I was wrong

Now you shine like chrome
You’re a star and bold like chrome
And from Tokyo to Rome
We’re all aware of you

Now you shine like chrome
You’re so hard and cold like chrome
And I’d like to take you home
But I’m scared of you

It’s nice to see you looking well
I know your age but I won’t tell
You always had a kind of glow
You’re luminous but I guess you know

I see it clearly
You’re gonna shine
I never really thought you’d be mine

Now you shine like chrome
You’re a star and bold like chrome
And from Tokyo to Rome
We’re all aware of you

I’ll take you honky tonkin’ in my old pick up truck
It’s dance time in Texas and the music lifts you up

It’s dance time in Texas and we’re striking up the band
We’ll go honky tonkin’, honey, take my hand
It’s dance time in Texas where the wine and music flows
We’ll do that Texas two step and that old Cotton-Eyed Joe

Now, it’s time for a slow dance and we’re waltzing, oh so close
It’s dance time in Texas and you’re the one I love the most

It’s dance time in Texas and we’re striking up the band
Let’s go honky tonkin’, honey, take my hand
It’s dance time in Texas where the wine and music flows
We’ll do that Texas two step and that old Cotton-Eyed Joe

Snow flakes fall the temp is dropping
Families out together shopping
It’s the warm & fuzzy time of year

Elves are working overtime
Making all our toys
Reindeer hooves on all the roofs
Of good little girls and boys

Big old cups of steaming cider
Fall asleep by a cozy fire
It’s the warm & fuzzy time of year

Santa’s on his way

I shouldn’t love you but I want to
I just can’t turn away
I shouldn’t see you but I can’t move
I can’t look away

And I don’t know
How to be fine when I’m not
‘Cause I don’t know
How to make a feeling stop

Just so you know
This feeling’s takin’ control
Of me and I can’t help it
I won’t sit around
I can’t let him win now

Thought you should know
I’ve tried my best to let go
Of you but I don’t want to
I just gotta say it all before I go
Just so you know

It’s gettin’ hard to be around you
There’s so much I can’t say
Do you want me to hide the feelings
And look the other away

And I don’t know
How to be fine when I’m not
‘Cause I don’t know
How to make a feeling stop

Just so you know
This feeling’s takin’ control
Of me and I can’t help it
I won’t sit around
I can’t let him win now

Thought you should know
I’ve tried my best to let go
Of you but I don’t want to
I just gotta say it all before I go
Just so you know

This emptiness is killin’ me
And I’m wonderin’ why I’ve waited so long
Lookin’ back I realize it was always there
Just never spoken

I’m waitin’ here
Been waitin’ here

Just so you know
This feeling’s takin’ control
Of me and I can’t help it
I won’t sit around
I can’t let him win now

Thought you should know
I’ve tried my best to let go
Of you but I don’t want to
Just gotta say it all before I go
Just so you know, just so you know

Thought you should know
I’ve tried my best to let go
Of you but I don’t want to
Just gotta say it all before I go
Just so you know, just so you know

I’ll be a dandy and I’ll be a rover
You’ll know who I am by the songs that I sing
I’ll feast at your table, I’ll sleep in your clover
Who cares what the ‘morrow shall bring

Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries, I’ll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
There I forget all the joy that is mine, today

I can’t be contented with yesterday’s glory
I can’t live on promises winter to spring
Today is my moment, now is my story
I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing

Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries, I’ll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
There I forget all the joy that is mine, today

Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries, I’ll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
There I forget all the joy that is mine, today
