lyrics

I wanna be, i wanna be, i wanna be, your mystery man, another planet. Taken apart, taken apart, taken apart by cosmic your soul, ooh aah.
 If could find, i would find, a way to be true. 
And i would be yours and yours would be my food, honey boo honey boo hoo hoo.
Would you be mine too?  
Now shut-up, shut-up, shut-up your head. Cause your in denial.
 All those tears what do they mean? What are they gonna fix? Go complain about it.
I don't care, i don't care, I don't care, I don't care, leave me alone.
Spending half your time shit-talking all your life.
Just forget about it!  
Yeah, I can be your best friend baby.
 Yeah, just don’t ruin my zen, lady
 Yeah, i could be be be your best friend, baby 
oh! no!
  Oh! No! bulls charging in the shrines, save it in the nick of time 
Oh! No! Pretending like the sky's on fire when it ain't that bad half the time
Oh! No! I'm breathing in the ssri’s, just stab it my thigh 
Oh! No! Whilst you speaking in the rhymes i'll be picking up the dimes

Yeah, i can be your best friend baby.
Yeah, just don't ruin my zen, lady.
Yeah, i can be your super-fly slim-shady
Yeah, best friend baby
yeah, don't ruin my zen, lady

we should do this again, yeah, we should do this again.

about

Oj Mengel Brisbane, Australia

Steeped in the bedroom lore of the singer-songwriting condition, O.j's tracks show off dance along Rock-pop grooves, haunting gospel melodies and lyrics that take the zeitgeist, wave it around and pin it to the wall. The warmth emitted from performances is matched only by the thick swampy heat from which he was raised. Soundslike: A primary school crush, a trembling hand, a stranger's smile. ... more
