Cat Power - Headlights

Last thing I remember

Last thing I remember

Last thing I remember

Somebody was laughing in my ear

Last thing I remember

The sun was coming up

Last thing i remember

Last thing i remember

Hey the headlights are getting to

Close to me

Hey the headlights are cutting me

I can see

Somewhere above me

I can see

My friend weeping

My friend singing over me

Lifting her arms up to the sky

Lifting her arms up to the sky

Somewhere above me

I can hear

Like birds singing

Or are they weeping

Get up around eight

Get up around eight

Get up around eight

Get up around eight

Let's make some coffee

And get real stoned

Hey let's play a record or two

A record or two

A record or two

A record or two

Hey the headlights are getting too

Close to me

Hey the headlights are cutting me

And I can see I'm alone

It's cold as hell

It's cold as hell

It's cold as hell

It's cold as hell

It's cold as hell

Cat Power - The Sleepwalker

I can hear - voices in the water
Coming up like - smoke brings the wind
I have to take some time - to relocate that house of mine
I think I must lost it in the river
They see things so different
To green eyes they give nothing away
Do you think now at last
You can tell me
No you won't - give away
Crush snow on my face
Feels like burning
And birds black face singing in the tree
If I got myself a gun
Then I could shoot down everyone
Maybe I've just invented some religion
I saw father dancing with his daughter
And the music singing softly on the breeze
I can't see an end - salvation anywhere
Think I'll wait here if he comes he comes down the river
Think I'll wait here if he comes he comes down the river
I've heard all this before
Already I know
A lost soul - I won't say anymore

(originally by This Kind of Punishment) (originally recorded by Emmylou Harris)

Cat Power - Itchyhead

There's a baby
With an itchy head
Pour water on it
I'll take a knife so I can
Take off
I'm 65
Nobody in my family knows I'm alive
Hey little girl
I would've cut your head off
Hey little girl
So I can
Pour water on him
So I can take knife
And I will
I'm 99
And I'm impaled
I wish I could have a million kids
A million girls
I would cut their head off
And I would
Pour water around them
So I can take knife
With that knife
I could pour
Water around them
One, two, three, four

Cat Power - Great Expectations [Myra Lee version]

I am like powder, I am like relaxation
I am the snow, I am the snow, I am the snow

I live in a desert
And I let the wind make love to me
I dig in this ocean and i try to fill it with gold
Fill it to the top, fill it to the top, fill it to the top
Do you look for hope in other people's eyes
Well that may be your worst redemption

Do you feed and clothe yourself
Well that may be your best defense

I am from the moon
I am from the moon
I am from the moon

So they say
So they say
So they say

Facing, confronting, branding each other
We were made through one another

Great expectations
Great expectations
Great expectations

So they say
So they say
So they say

I am the snow
I am the snow
I am the snow

Cat Power - Rockets [Dear Sir version]

Where do the dreams of babies go
'Cause you know they're all so good
And they're also gone so fast
Keep all the guns at home
Help keep your momma safe
'Cause you know she pretty good too
Where is the night so warm and so strange
That no one is afraid
Of themselves
Here, pick up, dig, dig out those weeds
Out of your happy go lucky fields
Of such predictive thinking
Where do the rockets find planets
Where do the rockets find planets
Where do the rockets find planets
Where are the dreams of the babies going
'Cause you know they're all gone fast
Take, take as much as you can
'Cause you know it's going so fast
And you know it's so good
Where are the many mountains so brave
That they do not explode over everyone
Pick, pick up, dig, dig out those weeds
Out of your happy go lucky fields
Of such predictive thinking
Where do the rockets find planets
Where do the rockets find planets
Keep your guns at home
Keep your guns at home
Help keep your momma safe
You know she's all good too
She's pretty good
Where are all the dreams of babies going
'Cause you know they're all good
