No Pony creates a casserole of chewy 80′s cartoon shows, a splash of bitterness, a healthy handful of whimsy, and a pinch ... more here and there of pop and folk, topped off with some classic rock or punky potato chips (crunchy!) that fizzles in your face like a bag of sonic poprocks. less

It’s a fine day for a heartache
It’s a beautiful evening for everything to end
When the bombs are bursting in our hearts
We’ll daydream together bout how the world ends
Because anything was everything
And nothing was impossible
Everything was beautiful
And nothing hurt
It’s the madness of the planet
Searching for cradles in tiny bits of string
We’re all in this together
Accident victims waiting for the spring
Then we can shout it to the skies
We’re lonesome no more!
Everything was beautiful
And nothing hurt
So it goes...
Spinning ourselves outside of time
Playing this game of me and you
Goddammit, you’ve got to be kind
Pull together and find someone to use
Because anything was everything
And nothing was true
Everything is beautiful
And nothing hurts
So it goes... - Track Name: To Orion

My empty arms long to
Steal you away from your place in the sky
And lay you down next to me
Before the darkness gives way to the day
I’ll nail the stars to the soles of my shoes
Look to Orion to guide my way home
The storm clouds above shift and glow
In shades of purple and gray
And the long night ahead
Fades away, fades away, fades away, fades to gray
At least now I know how Moscow glows
When the rain comes tumbling down
I love you I love you I love you I love you I still love you
I’ll be your friend, your sister, but never your lover
I won’t spend my life looking in shadows
I won’t leave my heart on the interstate
I’m sorry for the pain
It’s like apologizing for the rain
I’ll nail the stars to the soles of my shoes
Look to Orion to guide my way home - Track Name: The Ballad of Ripley

It’s a simple tale about outer space
The stars can be such a hostile place
Where sometimes your only friends
Are killer robots and sex-depraved aliens
So pull up your undies and open the hatch
Something inside tried to eat Jones the cat
Hey Ripley… Hey Ripley… Hey Ripley, you’re a badass bitch
It’s okay to admit you’re slightly depressed
When a flesh eating fetus might pop out yo chest
Seems like even mother wants to kill you
Death by magazine, what a scene
Hike up your mompants and strap on your boots
The alien queen wants to facerape poor Newt
Hey Ripley… Hey Ripley… Hey Ripley, in space, no one can hear you scream
Crash-landed among celibate Jesus-freaks
You finally got laid (it’s been years)
But he lost his pretty little head
Before the afterglow had time to fade
So hike up your mompants, it’s time for round three
A little alien in you, a little alien in me
Hey Ripley… Hey Ripley… Hey Ripley…
It’s game over man, game over! - Track Name: Nuclear Planet

I know that you’re mine
Because our tumors align
Be my plutonic lover
Til the end of time
Three mile smiles
In our desert dollhouse
Tripping on fields
Of mushroom clouds
Nuclear planet
Radioactive USA!
We could leave the lights on
And fuck all night
But the glow of our bodies
Is just as bright
Molecular spin
And particle sin
Just open up wide
And let it all in
Nuclear planet
Radioactive USA!
In the shadow of fallout
Our skin melts away
But for all of this power
It’s a small price to pay
Manhattan messiah
Of the atomic age
When he comes back
We’ll all have yellow cake
Nuclear planet
Radioactive USA! - Track Name: Casualties

Johnny came home to an empty house full of broken dreams
Getting drunk and takin pills just so he can sleep
Where have Johnny’s friends and family gone?
Well he still sees the barrette in her hair, covered in blood
His eyes still burn from the holy land built of bricks and mud
Thank you Johnny for a job well done
Thank you Johnny for a job well done
Johnny wonders what the hell we’re thankin him for
Did he really survive the war
Or did he just come back for more?
He still walks with his hands on his invisible gun
Afraid of crowds, of the side of the road, always ready to run
What do we do with Johnny now?
Piece by piece he’s putting himself into body bags
In case he forgets who the hell he is, he still wears tags
Thank you Johnny for a job well done
Thank you Johnny for a job well done
Johnny wonders what the hell we’re thankin him for
Did he really survive the war
Or did he just come back for more? - Track Name: Penny Candy

Penny candy is sickly sweet
Penny candy for you and me
Spend a nickel and get on the sugar high
Spend a quarter for a longer ride
Rot inside
My new addiction, my favorite flaw
My unhealthy obsession, my frightening fall
My nighttime companion, my sugared cliché
My daytime distraction, my lullabye prey
Day to day
These are scars we bear, these are memories we keep
These are nightmares and dreams everytime we fall asleep
These are medals of honor we wear
For all the times that you weren’t there
You weren’t there
Here’s a penny for losers and a penny for fucks
Here’s a penny for friends and a penny for love
I can’t spend anymore of myself
I can’t spend anymore time in hell
Find it with someone else
Penny candy is sickly sweet
Penny candy for you and me
Spend a nickel and get on the sugar high
Spend a quarter for a longer ride
Rot inside - Track Name: Miss Behavin

Whoa-oh I went to the bar last night
Everyone’s feelin all right
Tryin to line up a sight
Hopin to catch a bite
Met another pretty face
If you can keep up the pace
We can go back to my place
And invade some personal space
Put the goody two-shoes away
Come out and play
Let’s misbehave
Whoa-oh went out to the bar last night
Everyone’s wound too tight
The air’s got kind of a bite
Ready to get in a fight
She was givin me the stare
That ends in pullin some hair
She doesn’t have a prayer
Cause I know the fight’s not fair
Put the goody two-shoes away
Come out and play
Let’s misbehave
Whoa-oh went out to the bar last night
Nothin’ was feelin right
All the lights were too bright
Reality took a big bite
Everyone sittin depressed
Hardly even got dressed
We all sat around in a mess
Tryin to decompress
Try and put the bullshit away
Come out and play
Let’s misbehave
Let’s misbehave
Come out and play - Track Name: The Happysad

You’ve been waitin for me every time I close my eyes
Makin constellations in the shadowy summer sky
Cause every girl needs a fairy tale story
And every hero needs a princess to free
I want to hang windchimes in the hollows of your soul
And listen patiently for your song when the wind blows
When the sun dips down and the planet glows
We can dance through twilight on the tips of our toes
We’re finding our way
At times we’ll stay
In the Happysad
Snowflakes melt and swirl in the steamclouds of our breath
Chasing moonlight and laughing at the life that we have left
Every sunshine needs a little rain
And every wish needs a falling star
Maybe someday we’ll find you skipping through the human race
Maybe someday will fill you with gratitude and grace
Maybe someday we’ll be friends
Maybe someday never ends
We’re finding our way
At times we’ll stay
In the Happysad
