"Writing Love in Chinese" Love it looks like a one-eyed woman Smooth and sassy, curves and hips Secret smile on her lips, love A lady I have yet to meet But someday we'll sit down to have tea It'll be glorious, don't you think? Yeah all I know for now is I'm thinking of you wherever I go Don't you know I'm thinking of you wherever I go! Doo-doo, doo-doo...etc.etc. Well love it kind of sounds real selfish “Ai”, “ai,” “ai,” me, me, me. What's the difference, I can't see at all. One of those things that doesn't make sense Until you pump it through your system (Like a healthy dose of alcohol) But don't you know by now I've been thinking of you wherever I go Don't you know I’m thinking of you wherever I go, yeah Doo-doo, doo-doo, etc. etc. I-I-I'm in deep doo-doo I-I-I'm in deep doo-doo Love it feels So unreal Made of steel Like a one-eyed woman Love it feels So unreal Made of steel Like a one-eyed woman Love it feels So unreal Made of steel Like a one-eyed woman Yeah all I know for now is I'm thinking of you wherever I go Don't you know I'm thinking of you wherever I Wherever I go, I go And I'm thinking of you wherever I go Don't you know I'm thinking of you wherever I go Thinking of you wherever I go.

Someone’s running through the town alone picks a stone and throws The water is much too cold for little Wendy’s toes But we’ll jump straight up off the wall leave your senses and fall-- headfirst! What a thrill to not care at all And somehow We get up And go on our way If I were honest There’s no beauty in the promise of Another day Time is ticking away… Another day Time is ticking away So go on And get up And go on your way. Back where We once were The casual routine Slowly we slip into Little Wendy’s skin Bound by the books we never read Some days I want to scream, oh What’s it like to abandon the dream? I’m tired of the getup Can we Be on our way? Because if I were honest There’s no beauty in the promise of Another day Time is ticking away… It’s just another day and time is ticking away… So go on and get up And go on your way All I need is to be free what’s so wrong with that? So much to do so little time I want the night to last Join me where the air is freer, this may be your last… Chance don’t waste it can’t you taste it I want the night to last! Someone’s running through the town alone Picks a stone and throws The water Is much too cold For little Wendy’s toes

2016 reprise: Oh, imagination is a double edged sword Sometimes it can save you, 'cause you'll never be bored Lonely train rides They go something like Here's the real frustration with a runaway mind Don't know when to stop or when to leave the past behind Whatcha doing now, whatcha doing now Like meeting Madame President :( Flying to the Netherlands Chatting up a resident you shadowed long ago Or finding love and maybe taking cover From the flash floods that drown the gutters But hey, at least it isn't snow Insomnia at Insomnia Insomnia, Insomnia x 2 2013 version: Oh, imagination is a double-edged sword Sometimes it can save you, you’ll never be bored Lonely train rides turn into: Meeting the president Getaways to the Netherlands Chatting up that resident who lives on your floor Making up scenarios “That must be how the story goes!” Oh you’re always thinking of more It’s entertainment for hours And just like that, four hours have passed But here’s the real frustration with a runaway mind You don’t when to stop or when to leave it behind Whatcha doing now, I wonder If we were crustaceans floating out in the sea I could be the Belle if my Sebastian you’d be (Did you see what I did there?) And we’d sing Punk rock-ish covers now Can we call us lovers now No, those words aren’t coming I don’t know what I’m feeling Look at the dying leaves Would you mind telling me When the shit decided to hit the ceiling Fan?/Phantom silence abounds Oh all you wanted was some peace and quiet Insomnia-a-a-a If I could just forget, forget, forget And let myself not think, no thinking allowed But how could I possibly forget The way your hand pulled me through that crowd? Oh my memory It fails me in all the wrong situations I remember the way you breathed But I can’t recall if I picked oatmeal raisin Insomnia at Insomnia Insomnia at Insomnia. Oh my memory It fails me in all the wrong situations I remember the way you looked at me But I can’t recall if I picked oatmeal raisin Insomnia at Insomnia Insomnia at Insomnia
