Get It 03:36
Do you really think I'm funny or are you just humoring me? Don't you know I take my jokes very seriously So I hope you understand when I do not understand If you're laughing at my words or just at me 'Cause I'm everyone's favorite punch line And I'm everyone's favorite party trick Do you really think i'm funny or is it just the end of the night? What do you think do you think this is just some sort of game? Aren't you impressed by the integrity of my wit? Or are you just fooling around 'Cause I'm everyone's favorite punch line And I'm everyone's favorite party trick (Knock knock It off) I know I'm the biggest joke in this place But I know better I know you're no better than me So I will not follow you I've got my own lines to make This clown would rather end up sad and alone 'Cause I'm nobody's favorite punch line And I'm nobody's favorite party trick

Susie's got them strong claws Wants to show em to us cause she don't think we saw And when she clings to my arm I know she don't mean no harm Susie scratch & kisses I know that she loves me Makes me feel so special The way that she treats me And how can she stay so alive in these times? Susie's got them strong teeth She wants to tell us but she can't speak But Susie understands pain She'll try to take it away but the scars remain Susie scratch & kisses I know that she loves me Makes me feel so special The way that she treats me And if I can say the same of life I'm alright

Low One 01:08
Low in Barcelona I can't feel my feet Don't know where I'm going Don't know this street Low in Barcelona Everyone is happy Don't know where that light is Don't know what's wrong with me And if you'd asked me how I was feeling I would've said: No, not today, maybe tomorrow

Low Too 00:44

You don't have to say a word But it might be nice The silence kills me Though you'd never think I am a matchstick girl There are many others just like me We burn very bright And we snap just as clean We do our job Yeah we light you up But after you strike and you take your hit We go on our way I am a matchstick girl We get replaced day by day People want something With a little more fuel And it's a tragic thing For us to fall in love 'Cause even when we make a match It never seems to stick

Area Code 03:25
Many serious things are happening but I can’t deal in a serious way So instead I’ll shut my eyes and think of something funny to say Everything in my house is broken, the pool the TV The record player from my parents’ younger days I wish I could pull all my hair out and still look pretty No one would recognize me maybe then they could look me in the eye How can we stick together if we’re all in different area codes? Many serious things are happening but I can’t deal in a serious way So instead I’ll shut my mouth and look like I have nothing to say Everyone in my house is broken, the cat the area code No one’s got their head on their shoulders they’re all hanging down low I wish I could pull all my hair out and use it as a telephone wire No one would recognize me but at least then they could call me up Don’t everyone laugh at once now Will I get the chance to see your laugh lines? I just want the chance to see your laugh lines Could you change your landline, I don’t like your area code Everything in my house is broken we’re all catching colds No one’s got an area code they’ve all got cell phones You keep your area code no matter where you go now Doesn’t that undermine the whole meaning of this song? I don't know what I’m trying to communicate I don't know, Walt. I'm trying to commune with Kate. Can you all tell I love you all in a serious way? How can I tell you all I love you all in a serious way?

I can’t stand to see you like that Seeing you hunched over in my mind makes me hurt Rubbing your eyes just to see the dark I’m never gonna let that happen again I can’t get over your nervous smile And I see myself loving you for a while But I can’t control every little thing And I get so scared sometimes That I could ever be the reason What if next time I'm the reason? I know I can be so full of shit But I promise you can trust me now that you’ve crossed my heart I never want to see those bright brown eyes hope to die So I’m going to make you laugh until I never make you cry

Route 7 03:05
I was driving east on Route 7 Listening to Kimya Dawson When I came upon a most peculiar truth That if I should die I mean when I die I would like my coffin to be inlaid with all the things I've said that people thought were funny or could be funny And my funeral would be a stand-up comedy act 'Cause how absurd is it that I'd ever even lived at all? And how everything worked out how it did I can't say if it's good or bad it just is what it is I kept on driving east And I knew if I kept on driving east I would eventually hit The water the wars the lands I didn't know anyone in But I also knew if I kept on driving east I would eventually Be back on this same highway I bet I could say something funny about that too And if after my death When you're thinking about me I mean if you're thinking about me If you can crack the smallest smile In the middle of the night I'll know I've done alright
