Together At Last







Soft Features
There’s those sheets I’ll never see
It’s a little more than skin that rubbed off on me
We’d better take a picture
While we’re still young, with soft features
Have you learned from our mistakes?
From shy lips you knew you wouldn’t
You played fair and were cheated again
You had the better hand
To hold, To know
To grow, oh no
To ask, oh no




There’s those sheets I’ll never see
It’s a little more than skin that rubbed off on me
Fair is fare and you are you
I’m the distance between the two
I can’t see straight, without these frames 
What I see are, shadows and shapes
That twist and turn, under the shade
Of your banner good play
And your lines that remain
There’s alot more than sheets I’ll never see
It’s a little more than skin that rubbed off on me
Fair or Fare, you never knew 
you bet bedding and it's lost on you

This One (short version)





This one was about you and me
until this one really got underneath
There’s those sheets I’ll never see
It’s a little more than skin that rubbed off on me
We’d better take a picture
While we’re still young, with soft features
Will it make a difference
If I load the question?
There’s alot more than sheets I’ll never see
It’s a little more than skin that rubbed off on me
This one was about you and me
Until this one got underneath

Thankyou all of you and here's a joke



I got a little cap'n in me last night
and i don't think he wore a condom


thankyou thankyou, also incase some of you wanted an update on romance


i really like this girl i just met
but i think she does a lot of meth

thankyou thankyou, have a good day.

To My Neighbors

hey everyone in the neighborhood

i just wanted to address the situation of your cats.
YES, we have been collecting cats in our house for weeks.
i know all of you keep putting up signs and asking us about it
Everytime we tell you the truth.
but all of you seem to think we have been kidding.
we have all of your cats. and we put party hats on them.
they are so fucking cute.

also, just an update for everyone who is interested:

my new band "banana's for hire" will be playing the corner of 3rd and lavaca daily between 12:00 and 12:09

i grew another foot in the past 3 weeks

i just learned that this button "~" existed

alas, tiny sideways "s"'s have no place in conversation.


medical marijuana is the same thing as illegal marijuana.

i give sermons at my church during the wednesday graveyard shift.

i'm 1/2 cartoon but i'm only mostly joking about that.

i constantly feel, act and look pretty.

i've had 3 guest over to my house so far and 2 of them are my room mates.
the third was my house-call dentist.

and i'm goodbye

Second Nature



Matt Shorts: Song Edition 2


Second Nature
oh i know i shouldn't have
but i'm picking flowers
i'm pulling pedals

oh i know i shouldn't have
but you're window waiting
you're my inclination

on tip toes, you slow to a grow
you're sneakin outside and his belly is risin
pops snorin sweetly, how fare will you be?

oh i know i shouldn't have
but we're roman children
aren't we second nature

oh i know i should not have
but it's pure compulsion
we simply can't help

oh i know
it's love that is madly
not you or me darlin
our instincts are wild
not you or me darlin
so without thinking
it's you and me darlin
come show me who'd be
it's human or animal

but i know you're an animal
stuffed with plush, covered in cotton
with fierce teeth for meat from me





THANKYOU I appreciate you.

Big Cat

First post! so i made a new song. i'm sorry i'm chewing gum. I only do one takes though

Matt shorts: song edition.





BIG CAT
You're in the animal cage tonight
and he's gripping his stool and whip tight
he strikes you for show, it's an animal act

he placed his arm in your teeth
and you're trained not to bite, but we'll see
you bite him for show, it's an animal act

a dog with fresh bones and he's gnawing on yours

an urban circus rolled in tonight
and it opened her black eye real wide
i was late to the show
found a seat in the back

a dog digging up holes and I'm looking for yours

i wanted that black eye from you
and instead you hummed an excuse
i've heard it before
and they didn't come back




Thank you for your times!
