I'm Trying

Coming home back from the islands, telling friends I had a good time I couldn’t make a good decision, even if I tried Even if I tried I couldn’t keep a single secret, if it meant the death of me I couldn’t make a good decision, even if I tried Not even if I tried, not even if I tried Breathing hard into both nostrils, trying to get some oxygen To my brain before I lose it, they say it’s good to try It’s good to try-eyieeyieeyieeahh They say it’s good to try, guess that I should give it One more shot, oh dear Bite my lip and grind my teeth a little Holding back the fear Woke up to the sexy neighbors, having sex against the wall So I gave them a quick phone call I try n’ give my all They say it’s good to try I try n’ give my all

A thick black milkshake a-float, void of any blood flow or bone Slipping into the unknown, in hopes of getting stuck in your throat I just run into a fist, of pretty people floating in the mist I don’t care if I exist, if only they would put me on the list I kiss your face, I kiss your face Cause it’s the only face to kiss I lick your skin, I lick your skin Cause it’s the only skin to lick Your breath is warm, I guess I’ll take what I can get Moonlike vegetation in the dust the brochure didn’t mention the crust Attachments that grow, it didn’t say so That little things like this could rust It’s hard, it’s hard It’s hard to take it in all at once, the sweetest bit of berry in the bunch And disappointment hits you with a punch, with a punch Obituaries written over lunch I kiss your face, I kiss your face Cause it’s the only face to kiss I lick your skin, I lick your skin Cause it’s the only skin to lick Your breath is warm, I guess I’ll take what I can get I kiss your face cause it’s the only face to kiss Your skin cause it’s the only skin to lick Your breath is warm, I guess I’ll take what I can get I hold your hand cause it’s the only hand to hold It didn’t seem to bug you when I told If I’m not dead, it’s better than being alone Moonlike vegetation in the dust, take off your shoes if you must Not sure if I’m ready, not sure if you know Not sure of anything any more

Sex Isn't Important

Your tellin’ me, no one told them Not good, better be someone to calm them down now These feelings your regretting, it’s not your fault I hear it’s natural Oh my goodness necessary precautions they are not scary Cause science tells us, that Sex, is, not, important Science tells us Oh my goodness look at you alone in life without a future This should help relieve yourself of your obsurd obsessive nature Cause science tells us That sex, is, not, important Science tells us, that sex isn’t important No But the dreams keep alive the carnal heart All the time, when I’m alone, or someone’s near me It’s not fair, it’s distracting and dumb It’s impulsive and quick, and science says that it won’t stick Grow a pair and make sure that they’re good and numb And then cut em’ off at once, cause nothings getting done There’s no point to this when everything that you see is phallic No question whoever designed us definitely is a total dick Everyone is acting like it’s not there right there Right there in front of you impressing the impulsive you The sexy you and telling you what you should do what you should do We’re pulsing in the jeans as we’re becoming higher beings But nothing seems to keep us from having these naughty dreams We’ve tried everything…

Black Car

Comin’ round the corner in a black car Looking out the window don’t know where we are Light is shining on us from a big star Faint shiny outline of a bodyguard Don’t tell me the truth, it’s no fun Don’t tell me the truth, if there is one Comin’ round the corner in a black car Leather seats are velcro on my sweaty arm I can tell that that’ll make a big scar Just keep it a secret and I won’t be harmed Don’t tell me the truth, it’s no fun Don’t tell me the truth, if there is one They gave me a snack and they won’t let me give it back I don’t know if my friends will be so silly to attack I had a dream of god and this reminded me of that I don’t know how or when I’m going to react Don’t tell me the truth, it’s no fun Don’t tell me the truth, if there is one

If you wake up in our house Make a little song in your head Take it way out there, then reference something we once said And crawl up the staircase And sing it to us in bed Don’t be afraid, we’ll ask you to stay if it’s any good If you wake up in our house Cereal up on the roof Neighbors lookin’ happy, smilin’ shoutin’ how do you do And we’ll cackle at the sunrise For some reason it looked like you Don’t be afraid, it’s normal on a sunny day Chuggin’ our milk, felt like silk, flowin’ down your throat You felt the guilt, spilt on a quilt, but ya left such a lovely note If you fall back asleep We’ll cover you up with love, and blankets from the closet You’re our little snuggle bug Don’t be afraid, it’s normal on a sunny day If you wake up in our house If you wake up in our house Our house, our house, our house

We looked into our ice cream And thought of how hard we tried That’s good it started melting It matches our sense of pride Don’t tell the neighbors We didn’t know them that well, anyway Next time, we do favor We’ll read the brochure, and listen to what they say What they say But until next time, at least we know We tried, we tried, we tried like he did We tried, we tried, we tried like he did We have delusions as prodigy We entertain in our spare time Great feats like riding thunder As we nail the hand jive But if we play it safe, we never have to learn No products of the divine So often we think we’re perfect Turns out we’re just fine Don’t tell the neighbors I think they think we’re pretty cool, all the time And if, they need a favor We’ll put on our red boots and Won’t mention that we just let our good friend die But we tried, we tried, we tried like he did We tried, we tried, we tried like he did We tried, we tried, we tried We tried, we tried, we tried, we tried

Fruit Juice Seattle, Washington
"The kind of light psychedelic pop created by Fruit Juice is eminently invigorating in its giddy goofiness. With their
glammy energy and commitment to sunny, falsetto harmonies[…] It's a swirling fish bowl of paint illuminating against a wall in an endless configuration of shapes and colors[…] -- all with pleasantly glassy-eyed sheen"
Rev Adam Mckinney, Weekly Volcano
