You Are Invisible I got something I can never tell It's not evil but it's physical Sometimes it's like you are invisible, invisible, invisible, invisible (repeat) I got something of the highest grade It's not something I would ever trade Sometimes it's like we are invincible, invincible, invincible, invincible It's like the sound of a drone coming through a telescope like desire all alone creeping through an open window Inside the doorway in your quiet room Outright doing what you gotta do Sometimes it's like you are invisible, invisible, invisible, invisible Like when you were small in the eyes Playing with sticks and stones Fuckin around, didn't know Fear from your little toe oh oh oh oh oh oh When you were small In the eye Like when you were small in the eyes Playing with sticks and stones oh oh oh oh oh oh . . . Hey!

Busrider If you were a DJ you would If you were a DJ you would If you were a DJ you would gimme a beat If you were a DJ you would gimme a beat And if you were a bus rider you'd give me your seat If you were Jack Horner, I'd be blueberry pie And if you were my dealer you would just get me high But as it stands you're nobody, you're just like a ghost Gimme headaches, gimme phantom pains—I loved you the most So love me or leave me. but don't be so mysteezie I don't care how you get here won't you please just come and see me Bus rider! you're too broke to drive Bus rider! I'll make you mine Bus rider! you’re too broke to drive Bus rider! I'll make you mine If you were a bank account you'd be overdrawn You grew up in the projects with your little single mom And now your ass has got no wheels, you're down on your luck But fuck the Number 9, I'm comin to pick you up CHORUS Gimme some play Don’t throw me no shade Je suis enchanté (hey) Je suis enchanté (hey) If you were a D-- If you were a D-- If you were a DJ you would gimme a beat CHORUS If you were adventurous you'd gimme some jam And spread it on my peanut butter here in Japan Take me to Tokyo! Tune in my radio! Be my Romeo on my s-s-s-stereo (stereo?) . . . you're too broke to drive . . . I'll make you mine . . . you're too broke to drive . . . I'll make you mine CHORUS (repeat)

Satellite Heart (Tiny Stars REMIX) I'm a satellite heart lost in the dark I’m spun out so far You stop, I start But I'll be true to you I hear you're living out of state, running in a whole new scene You know I haven't slept in weeks You're the only thing I see I'm a satellite heart lost in the dark I'm spun out so far You stop, I start But I'll be true to you I'm a satellite heart lost in the dark I’m spun out so far You stop, I start But I'll be true to you No matter what you do Yeah I'll be true to you So pretty...
