    "Everything about this album is just super!" - Julian's Mom

    Actually, she didn't say that...I made up that quote just now. I thought it would be funny to feature a quote from my Mom. Was it funny at all? Oh god, I probably just ruined the joke by breaking the fourth wall...didn't I??...

    Um, this is a really good album. It's my second album. The second one that I made. It's an album. It's much much better than the first album. Because it's the second one. My second album. It hsd a lot of good songs on it so listen to it FOR PETE'S SAKE ALREADY
    Purchasable with gift card

Baby Owls 02:06
Hear me out: I got too much time to sit around I don't doubt you have little time to settle down What about something new to cure your frown? Baby owls in the rafters above just hangin' out! Baby owls

I didn't used to think, but I think a lot now About the house in which I live Someone built it on solid ground So the structure doesn't cave in I didn't used to wonder but I wonder aloud I hope you're listening I've got your lucky rabbit's foot Yeah, I keep it hidden Got your lucky rabbit's foot I used to believe but I don't believe now That I could have made you stay You've got your own reasons... There is no need to explain I always used to hope, and I hope a lot now Hope that you'll return here someday I've got your lucky rabbit's foot... With any luck, we'll celebrate! You left town and I just hung around Thinking I would mail you back your stuff But you never even asked for it once It looks like you just might be in luck You left town and I just hung around Thinking I would mail you back your stuff But you never even asked for it once My friend, you just might be in luck Got your lucky rabbit's foot

Poor little Cinderella, hair tied up in braids Wears a shirt upon her chest and coal upon her face Poor little Cinderella, will she ever know The Prince is a hermaphrodite with skin as white as snow Oh, little Cindy, you're stuck in your 2D world Your only friends are mice and birds! Isn't that absurd? Don't you feel disturbed?? Poor little Cinderella hangs from farmer's twine Legs dangling from the chandelier Will she one day be mine, will she one day be mine?

I'll sleep in the bathtub I'll sleep in the rain I'll sleep any-god-damn-knows-where-else And won't complain Oh my baby, she does the same She sleeps down in that same old drain Every night and every day Until the cold chills make her wake And everybody says she's asleep So wake up darling! Wake up darling! I'll sleep in the hallway I'll sleep in a booth I'll sleep in a hay covered loft In a run-down chicken coop Oh my baby, she does the same Until the girl can't stand the pain Every night and every day Until the cold chills make her wake And everybody says she's asleep So wake up darling! Wake up darling! Wake up darling, everybody says you're asleep!

Tearing up the old cliches Of this dimension I'm looking for a miracle but Somehow finding misdirection Running round in circles gets me Nothing but the worst attention Fate, she always screws me And I never think to wear protection I'm telling you, there's nothing else that you can do If you fall in love with me, I'll fall in love with you I promise you, believe it and it will be true You can feel it in your heart, yes it burns inside of you! Your words are in my head I think you might have brought on this infection I understand the dialect but Can't decipher your inflection I want to take you home with me And add you to my private collection But if you disagree, can you Point me in a new direction? I'm telling you, there's nothing else that you can do If you fall in love with me, I'll fall in love with you I promise you, believe it and it will be true You can feel it in your heart, yes it burns inside of you! Your words are in my head I think you might have brought on this infection...

Rx 03:38
Darling, you know it's true I only care about you I only care about you Darling, when I see your face I can not look away I only care about you I only care about you Darling, want to give you a hug I want to buy you your drugs I only care about you Darling, I want to show you love I can not get enough I only care about you I only care about you Looking at the stars, it's so obvious That we're still alive yet oblivious to all around As long as you ask me what's on my mind You'll always get the same answer, hear the same sound I only care about you I want to buy your drugs I only care about you

Baby do you want to go back To the old Louisiana shack? We can sit down, go around back And eat all the apples off the rack We can walk down by the train tracks And talk about the knowledge that we lack Or federal income tax, waking, baking, Waning, waxing...or something like that If your skin is pearly white, come with me tonight! Louisiana shack! If you feel a Mac Attack You can buy one in a snap We can fool around a bit in the sack Or smoke a bit of crack We can walk down by the train tracks And talk about the knowledge that we lack Or federal income tax, waking, baking, Waning, waxing...or something like that If your skin is pearly white, come with me tonight! Louisiana shack!

Well it looks like twenty-thousand years ago I was a minion to a warlord named Gibraltar With a great axe and reputation Suddenly I am reborn A tuna fish or an acorn Suddenly I am reborn! Well it looks like twenty-thousand seconds ago I was sleeping in a cradle upon the ocean Fending off those hungry sharks Suddenly I am reborn A tuna fish or an acorn Suddenly I am reborn!

Baby I love you, baby I need you I was head over heels right from the start If we're together, even if we're apart You will be the master of my heart! Come what may, our love will last a lifetime Come and stay, come stay with me tonight! If we're together, or if we're apart You will be the master of my heart! (Totally awesome guitar solo) Baby I want you, baby I have you You were stuck in my head right from the start When we're together or when we're apart You will be the master of my heart! Come what may, our love will last a lifetime Come and stay, come stay with me tonight! We'll be together, never to part You will be the master of my heart! Oh, you will be the master of my heart!

Physical 04:07
I'm saying all the things that I know you'll like Making good conversation I gotta handle you just right If you know what I mean I took you to an intimate restaurant Then to a suggestive movie There's nothin' left to talk about Unless it's horizontally Let's get physical I wanna get physical Let's get into physical Let me hear your body talk Let me hear your body talk Well I've been patient, I've been good Tried to keep my hands on the table It's gettin' hard, this holdin' back If you know what I mean I'm sure you'll understand my point of view We know each other mentally You gotta know that you're bringin' out The animal in me! Let's get physical I wanna get physical Let's get into physical Let me hear your body talk Let me hear your body talk Let's get animal I wanna get animal Let's get into animal Let me hear your body talk I want to hear your body talk!
