cool pairs — strange hunger haunted me

From the dusty mesa her looming shadow grows

Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote

She twines her spines up slowly towards the boiling sun

And when I touched her skin, my fingers ran with blood

In the hushing dusk, under a swollen silver moon

I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom

And strange hunger haunted me, the looming shadows danced

I fell down to the thorny brush and felt the trembling hands

When the last light warms the rocks and the rattlesnakes unfold

The mountain cats will come to drag away your bones

And rise with me forever across the silent sand

And the stars will be your eyes and the wind will be my hands

Far From Any Road – Jerry Williams and Anna Ternheim sing The Handsome Family

cool pairs – tuesday's grey and wednesday too

I don't care if Monday's blue

Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too

Thursday I don't care about you

It's Friday I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart

Tuesday Wednesday break my heart

Oh, Thursday doesn't even start

It's Friday I'm in love

Saturday wait

And Sunday always comes too late

But Friday never hesitate

I don't care if Monday's black

Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack

Thursday never looking back

It's Friday I'm in love

Monday you can hold your head

Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed

Or Thursday watch the walls instead

It's Friday I'm in love

Saturday wait

And Sunday always comes too late

But Friday never hesitate

Dressed up to the eyes

It's a wonderful surprise

To see your shoes and your spirits rise

Throwing out your frown

And just smiling at the sound

And as sleek as a shriek

Spinning round and round

Always take a big bite

It's such a gorgeous sight

To see you in the middle of the night

You can never get enough

Enough of this stuff

It's Friday

I'm in love

Friday I'm in Love – Phoebe Bridgers sings The Cure

cool pairs – no one can lift the damn thing

The book of love is long and boring

No one can lift the damn thing

It's full of charts and facts and figures

And instructions for dancing

But I, I love it when you read to me

And you, you can read me anything

The book of love has music in it

In fact that's where music comes from

Some of it is just transcendental

Some of it is just really dumb

But I, I love it when you sing to me

And you, you can sing me anything

The book of love is long and boring

And written very long ago

It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes

And things we're all too young to know

But I, I love it when you give me things

And you, you ought to give me wedding rings

I, I love it when you give me things

And you, you ought to give me wedding rings

The Book of Love – Peter Gabriel, and Tracey Thorn sing The Magnetic Fields
