Beautiful Ice Bucket. (103bpm. 6/8 time. C maj.)
You're a beautiful ice bucket
Full of beautiful ice
And you're chilling the vino
And it's chilling real nice
You're a re-purposed object
No-one knows where you've been
No—one else at the table will ever know
The horrors you've seen.
You're a beautiful ice bucket.
You were once a container
Filled with surgical gore
But now you've been rescued
You're not that any more
You're a beautiful ice bucket

Mother Duck's Dead. (103bpm. 4/4 time. C maj.)
Driving on the motorway
I saw a rolling ball of extinct feathers
Tumbling out from under the car in front
In the fast lane
The ducklings ran bewildered
To the median strip
From which there was no escape
Mother duck's dead, the ducklings are rushing around
Mother duck's dead, the ducklings are rushing around

Blue Juice. (103 bpm. 6/8 time. C maj.)
Good night darling sleep
Turn out the light, and I'll turn out the light
You're warm and safe in your warm safe bed
Turn out the light, and I'll turn out the light

The big swim. (60 bpm. 6/8 time. C maj.)
You left your life
And went away
Now I can't leave
And I can't stay
Walking by the sea
The water's dark
And it calls to me
I might take a swim
And wonder when
To get out again

Checking out. (103 bpm. 3/4 time – 6/8 time. C maj.)
What does that word mean?
I don't believe you
I don't believe this
This is just bullshit
This is just bullshit
Ah... Shit.
I did not request your love
I did not love you
You did not love me
We did not love each other
There's been a mistake with my bill

Ghost. (110 bpm. 3/4 time. C maj.)
I am just slipping away
I am not saying goodbye
No more awkward farewells
I am just gonna ghost it
I am outside in my car
I have forgotten something
Really quite important
I have to sneak back inside
I am just slipping away
I am not saying goodbye
No more corporate moves [blundered line by K, but it's pure gold and you can hear us smiling]
I am just gonna ghost it

Hell is Other People. (126 bpm. 4/4 time. C maj.)
The world is loud with the sound of people
Eating loudly
Laughing loudly
Go away or shut the fuck up
Talking loudly
Breathing loudly
Driving loudly
Cleaning loudly
Go away or shut the fuck up
Weeping loudly
Walking loudly
Cooking loudly
Fucking loudly
Go away or shut the fuck up

56K Modem love song. (85 bpm. 4/4 time. C maj.)
I really really like my 56k modem
It's a special kind of like
I don't use it to connect to the internet
I just love the way it sounds
Sometimes I like to phone myself up with my 56k modem
And listen to it
I just love the noise it makes
I feel a bit uncomfortable
About sharing the special noises
But I like them very, very much

ABCD Goldfish. (103 bpm. 4/4 time. C maj.)
Don't have no sparkly fingers
Don't have no special toes
I am a little fish
Don't need no sparkly jewellery
Don't need no special shoes
I am a little fish
Feed me, feed me, please
Feed me, feed me, while I hide in my sunken wreck
I am a little fish
Feed me, feed me, please
Feed me, feed me, while I hide in my sunken wreck

Potatoes. (103 bpm. 4/4 time. C maj.)
I’ve done some potatoes
I like potatoes
Have some more potatoes
I’m kind of getting full
I hope you left room for pudding
I’ve just been sick in the garden

Trap Cat. (103 bpm. 6/8 time. C maj.)
Trap Cat is waiting for breakfast
Licking her sixpence sprawled on the kitchen floor
She chirps with delight as I open
The door of the refrigerator
Trap cat is waiting for breakfast
Please bite me gently
Please claw me gently
Please claw me gently
Please bite me gently
