Protect Me You
(Kim)

Protect me from ravagement
I am ten years old
I don’t know what I do

Protect me myself
I am fourteen
There’s nothing to do

Protect me yourself
I am sixteen

Protect me from starving
I am eighteen

Protect me you
I don’t know what you do

Protect me demons
That come at night
I don’t know what they say
Their whispering
Sends the night air away
And makes me forget
I hope they come
Again and again

I hope they come
Again and again
I hope they come again
Again, Again

Kill Yr. Idols
(Thurston)

I don’t know why
You wanna impress Christgau
Ahh let that shit die
And find out the new goal

Kill yr. idols
Sonic death
It’s the end of the world
Confusion is sex

Kill yr. idols
Sonic death
It’s the end of the world
And confusion is sex

Brother James
(Kim)

Take my hand he said to me
Follow now or you’ll be damned
Let’s go to the other side
Let’s go to the other side

Straight forth or I’ll kick in your teeth
Straight forth or I’ll kick in your teeth

Brother James give it to me
Brother James give it to me

I don’t need it anymore
Comin’ knockin’ at my door
I don’t need it anymore
Comin’ knockin’ at my door

Take my hand you might as well
We’re going straight to hell
I don’t wanna hang around
Do I have to kick your ass around

Early American
(Kim)

Nothing but a savage bird
In your face
In your land
The weight of you is greater than
Forgot my pride
Forgot my side
Don’t bother to leave
There’s no room outside
Your sense of pride
Nothing here but a savage bird
