*Rabbit Hole*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

In the news today I read
Girl was found with a missing head.
Not far from where we are
In the ground it’s dark and cold.
You could fall down a rabbit hole
So black you never get back.

Say you will be the gentle heart
Who can feel when I fall apart.
Will you? I will too.
Say you will be the one I see
And be still wavin’ back at me
Through time, back through time.

Danger out on the edge of town
Better watch out for the circus clown.
You find in your mind
Get me out, you gotta break that chain.
If I wake up with a monkey brain
Inside, still alive.

Say you will be there when I come
Up the hill smiling in the sun.
Sky blue, me and you
Say you will be the one I see.
And be still wavin’ back at me
Through time, back through time.

*Bridget In The Sun*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

Bridget in the sun, there is only one
If you find her.
Bridget on the stairs, when there’s no one there
I’m beside her.

Bridget in the sun
Dreaming in the roses
Bridget in the sun
Leaping pandemonium.

Searching in the sky
Through a golden eye
Tell me Isis
What could I have done?

Riddles on her tongue
She’s the silence.

Bridget in the sun
Dreaming in the roses.
Bridget in the sun
Leaping pandemonium.

From the corner of my eye
I see her running by
Just a shadow.
Dreams of her and I chasing butterflies
Till the light goes.

Bridget in the sun
Dreaming in the roses.
Bridget in the sun
Wasn’t I the lucky one?

*Kung Fu Girl*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

Mind your P’s and Q’s
Spoke when spoken to
Ducks all in a row
Never let them know
Kung Fu Girl…

Blow up the world
Blow up the world
Blow up the world…

She will only breed
In captivity
Give ‘em what they want
A blow-up party doll
Kung Fu Girl…

Blow up the world
Blow up the world
Blow up the world…

Pretty lotus flower
Can you feel the power?
You’re the atom bomb
That the world forgot
Kung Fu Girl…

Blow up the world
Blow up the world
Blow up the world…

*Lookin' For Elvis*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton and Larson Paine

Well I’ve been lookin’ for Elvis, across the USA
I don’t know where the big E goes
But I know it ain’t no grave

I’ve been lookin’ for Elvis, lookin’ for Elvis
It’s where I want to be
Swear I saw him eatin’ on a ding-dong
Don’t it get lonely at the Piggly Wiggly?

They say there’s seven wonders in this crazy world
Let’s get it straight, I know there’s eight
Listen to me, girls

I’ve been lookin’ for Elvis, lookin’ for Elvis
And I’m doin’ great
Saw him eatin’ on a ding-dong
Don’t it get lonely at the Piggly Wiggly?

Goin’ down, down to Elvis Town
Won’t be long till I know he’ll be with me Yea

One day I’m gonna catch him
You know I got the bait
That’s triple X scripts, banana splits
And a big old chocolate cake

I’ve been lookin’ for Elvis, lookin’ for Elvis
Saw him eatin’ on a ding-dong
Don’t it get lonely at the Piggly Wiggly?

*Happy Face*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton and David McConnell

Everything not Happy Face gets erased
I can hear the cracking sound of a frown upside down
We’ve got two minutes left to go
Before this puppy’s gonna blow

Anyone can be replaced, Happy Face
Pacman’s not the only one to eat his own, one by one
We’ve got two minutes left to go
Before this puppy’s gonna blow

Every lie you ever told is coming true
And every time you try to hide inside you die
You know you do
Upside down, upside down

Time to take the Kool Aid test, Jim knows best
Happy Face is standing by, cyanide in his smile.
We’ve got two minutes left to go
Before this puppy’s gonna blow

I’d like to smash that Happy Face
You can take the knife and turn it, Happy Face
Every lie you ever told is comin’ for you
And every single tear you’ll never cry, I cried for you

*Creeps*

Music and lyrics by Jerome Youngman
Additional lyrics by Josie Cotton

Creeps at my door, creeps on my phone
Oh I wish they’d leave me alone
Go away, go away
Can’t you see I’ve got nothing to say?

And oh whoa whoa whoa, wish they’d fade away
And oh whoa whoa whoa, think they’re here to stay

Hey hey, mister, are you talkin’ to me?
You’re cryptonomic on the tv screen,
If you’re so smart just stay out of my mind
I’m a taxi driver with an axe to grind

Chorus:
Go away…Hey

Creeps at my door, creeps on my phone
Oh I wish they’d leave me alone
Creeps at my door, “Go back to your homes”
Like an angry mob with torches and stones

Chorus…

Creeps Creeps creeps
Leave me alone

*Nikita*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

Your eyes look so far away in some smoky cafe
Remember, we’re good for the moon

When memories are kissed to sleep
Like a song the refrain repeats
Spirits rise on a haunted stage
I go to my place

Nikita Nikita Nikita Nikita

“There’s no happiness, only art” you said
Never mentioned love, if it paid enough
What can we do? We’re just food for the moon

Nikita Nikita Nikita Nikita

With your Spanish whip
And your pants unzipped
Just a con with some rugs to sell
Take a bow cause it’s all you get
The world will forget

Nikita Nikita Nikita Nikita

*End Of Story*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

You look away, restlessly
Into the grey light of day
Can’t believe. Why pretend?
Someone has to begin

You’re cigarette, burned to ash
All that’s left, words unsaid shall remain
Don’t explain, all I hear is the rain

End of story
End of story
Can’t remember the lines
That you say at a time ….just like this

In the end, a heart is free
Yet again, time was then
Love was warm, endlessly
Pillow-soft as a dream

End of story
End of story
We’ve been running and hiding
And we go on denying it’s true

I don’t want to go, baby
I don’t want to go, baby
With every step and every clue
Reminding me what I always knew

It’s the story of us, but I just can’t believe it’s the end
The end of us, the one that was

*Beautiful But Deadly*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

Just another sad cliché
You’d just as soon forget
And it’s more than you can take
Upon your broken head
Everything was too far gone
And something deep inside
Was eating you alive
Something was telling you run

    Beautiful but deadly
    Beautiful but deadly

Just a tired masquerade,
A pantomime of love
And it’s never gonna change
Until you’ve had enough
Anyway it’s too late now
Finally you see
He isn’t what he seems
You know it’s over and out

    Beautiful but deadly
    Beautiful but deadly
    Deadly deadly

One more story of the flesh
The final passion play
Even when there’s nothing left
Somebody’s gotta pay
But you don’t have to feel so bad
He’s a person to avoid
A selfish little boy
You better run while you can

    Beautiful but deadly
    Beautiful but deadly
    Beautiful but deadly
    Beautiful but beautiful

*Fabulous*

Music by Josie Cotton and David McConnell
Lyrics by Josie Cotton

What if you were God?
What if you were Him?
Posing like a pimp on a jungle gym
By Versace?
Everyone knows you’re a superstar
When you’re playin’ Greek boy at the gym
In the shower

Someday soon, Fabulous
You do him better than he does
Don’t you know dreams come true?

In your poet shirt
Sigh and look away
So you were a zip-lock gigolo
By the hour.
Life’s a cabaret in your spandex pants
Imitating life in a wind machine
And stilettos

Whose gonna stop you now, baby?
Whose gonna put you down now?
Whose gonna be on top? You! Come on, baby
Whose gonna stop you now?
Everybody’s gonna wanna be you…like you do

You want it? You got it!
Ba ba da da ba ba da da ba ba …

*You're The Boss*

Music and lyrics by Josie Cotton

Could you dare be un-hip?
Yeah, the cheesiest act on the strip
Really shake it, Sammy Davis
Come along, grab ahold
Got your pie-in-the-sky à la Mode
And a sweet ride past the skyline

     Maybe I’ve just seen too many faces
     Maybe I got lost in the crowd
     Goin’ up and down on elevators
     Maybe I forgot to get off

Pity the priest, not the fool
People live their whole lives by the rules
Someone made up till you wake up…
    
    But maybe you’ve just seen too many faces
    Maybe you got lost in the crowd
    Goin’ up and down on elevators
    Maybe you forgot to get out

        Or maybe you like being unhappy
        Maybe you get off getting lost
        You’re the boss
        Maybe you don’t want to be happy
        Maybe you get off getting lost
        You’re the boss
        You’re the boss
        You’re the boss
