regina spektor - Mermaid (Live)Lyrics: (may need altering)I am a mermaidBut I've sold my voiceFor a couple of feetAnd they always bleedWhen I go walking in the roadI am a mermaidBut I've sold my voiceFor a couple of feetAnd they always bleedNo matter how I pleadAnd I once saw a most beautiful manAt the local record storeHe bumped into me and said,Well excuse me, young ma'am,But haven't I seen your pretty eyes somewhere before?I smiled but gestured at my throatTo show that I was muteWell, he quickly looked down at the floorAnd shuffled in his bootsHe was out of there so fastI am a mermaidBut I've sold my voiceFor a midnight trainand a bump of cocaineAnd an old photo of ballets russesI'm a mermaidBut I have sold my voiceFor a bottle of gin'Cause I can't swimAnd I sure don't want to floatI was so lonely walking out of that storeAnd back into the busy people streetWhen overhead I heard an argumenta woman opened up her window, threw a flower pot from itI was startled by the crashBut went over to find a little plantI quickly emptied out my coffee paper cup andAdopted itTransplanted itTook it home andNamed it.... MozartI am a mermaidBut I've sold my voiceAnd I got rid of my tailat a junkyard salealong with some favorite childhood toysI am a mermaidBut I have sold my voiceFor a couple of feetAnd they always bleedNo matter how I pleadFor a couple of feetAnd they always bleedNo matter how I plead For a couple of feetAnd they always bleedWhen I go walking in these streets....please visit www.reginaspektor.com

regina spektor - Lucky Penny (Live)Lyrics:I didn't find a lucky pennySo I flipped it overAnd left it for someone else to findAnd a dime just in timeFor the little kid behind meTo pick it up and yell,Hey mom, I found a dimeThen I turned around the cornerAnd I dropped another dollarJust in case the street needed some more cashIn the end, I made it homeWith nothing in my pocketsExcept some cigarettes and some stonesI pick them up when I go walkingSome are shiny, all are dirtySome are just pebbles that might grow up to be stonesAs an adult, no one can stop youFrom getting your hands dirtyWhen you're walking home aloneThen I saw a little black catCross the street before a fast cabFlashed and disappeared into the nightHe glanced back with understandingOf a future life impendingand we both knew it wasn't his time yetI didn't find a lucky pennySo I flipped it overAnd left it for someone else to findAnd a dime just in timeFor the little kid behind meTo pick it up and yell,Hey mom, I found a dime... please visit www.reginaspektor.com

regina spektor - Dead Rat (Live)Lyrics:There was a dead rat beneath the windows of my buildingOf my building, of my buildingAnd (a) children would point sticks at itAnd pokeAnd (a) when it got itself all frozen dead the night beforeWhile Mr. Jones and Ms. Gonzalez were out having a good smokeHaving a good smokeOld Charlie with a walkerWas out thinking in MilwaukeeAs he downed another good essentiant beerAnd so he hadn't noted that the cold winds were the closestAnd so he hadn't noticed that the night was drawing nearBut what's one less in a world of so manyWhen only mushroom clouds can leave ripples on our souls?What's one less?Either way we got a messAnd no one hears the call anymoreAnymore, anymore, anymoreThere was a dead rat beneath the windows of my buildingOf my building, of my buildingAnd (a) children would point sticks at itAnd pokeAnd (a) when it got itself all frozen dead the night beforeWhile Mr. Jones and Ms. Gonzalez were out having a good smokeHaving a good please visit www.reginaspektor.com

regina spektor - Blue Lips (Live)Lyrics:He stumbled into faith and thought,This is all there isThe pictures in his mind aroseAnd began to breatheAnd all the gods in all the worldsBegan colliding on a backdrop of blueBlue lipsBlue veinsHe took a step but then felt tiredHe said, I'll rest a little whileBut when he tried to walk againHe wasn't a childAnd all the people hurried pastReal fast and no one ever smiledBlue lipsBlue veinsBlue, the color of the planet from Far, far awayHe stumbled into faith and thought,This is all there isThe pictures in his mind aroseAnd began to breatheAnd no one saw and no one heardThey just followed leadThe pictures in his mind awokeAnd began to breedThey started off beneath the knowledge treeThen they chopped it down to make white picket fencesThey marched along the railroad tracksAnd smiled real wide for the camera lensesThey made it past the enemy linesJust to become enslaved in the assembly linesBlue lipsBlue veinsBlue, the color of the planet from Far, far away...Blue...the most human color...Blue lipsBlue veinsBlue, the color of our planet from Far, far away... please visit www.reginaspektor.com
