You hate her
More than you love me
So you build a wall
Designed to keep out all
All the things you hate
They’re never gonna make you great
Whatcha gonna do with all that hate when I’m long gone?
I’m gonna wait for another day and it’ll be allright
To keep me in
You gotta shut everything out
Trying to avoid
All the contempt you carry
For all your hate
It’s never gonna make you great
Whatcha gonna do with all that hate when I’m long gone?
If I gotta hate the things you hate just to be your friend
When you ain’t feeling this way we’ll speak again
I’m gonna wait for another day and it’ll be allright

I Hate Birds
02:15
|
|||
I hate birds
Cuz they can sing whenever they want to
Even if you really need to
Catch up on your sleep
I hate birds
Cuz they can love whoever they want to
And they can go wherever they want to
Far away from here
But I ain’t got no time to maintain such petty hate
When I'm using my mind I guess birds are pretty great
I sure can relate to the way they fly away
From all their problems, it’s how they solve them
I hate birds
Cuz all their little bones are hollow
So they can fly like they wanna swallow
The whole entire sky
I hate birds
Cuz they ain't got any sphincters
And their shit lands wherever the wind does
Right up in your face
But I ain’t got no time to maintain such petty hate
When I'm using my mind I guess birds are pretty great
I sure can relate to the way they fly away
From all their problems, it’s how they solve them
I hate birds
I guess birds are pretty great

Pizza Crucifixion
02:01
|
|||
I hate you
You burned me alive
And you were so irresponsible
Just looking on while I died, you never even tried
I’m feeling dizzy and you won’t even miss me
Pizza crucifixion
I ate you
Now I’m a reminder
We can’t live within a fire
The living survivors
Were often demisers
You can’t cook me
If you don’t know how to cook
Gave not a single proper look
While neglecting every nook
Darker now than when you came
Posted up when I should be okay
Example made within each way
Pizza crucifixion
I ate you
It was no one's fault but my own
That I was made for someone, now I’m overdone
You won’t be the only one
Posted up when you could be okay
Example made every day
Pizza crucifixion
I ate you

I'm Damaged Goods
02:36
|

I’m damaged goods
I ain’t no good for anybody
Cuz I ain’t got any feelings in my heart
It’s understood
That I can’t be with anybody
Cuz I don’t love anyone
Except for you
When you went away
I hated myself
For wanting to follow suit
Once I escaped
I did not get a break
All this time just thinking about you
I’m damaged goods
I ain’t no good for anybody
Cuz I ain’t got any feelings in my heart
It’s understood
That I can’t be with anybody
Cuz I don’t love anyone no more
I have come to trust
Only those I must
Fearful eyes that stultify my mind
When I see it from above
I know that there is love
Every day just looking up at you
I’m damaged goods
I ain’t no good
Ain’t got no feelings in my heart
I’m damaged goods
I ain’t no good
No I don’t got no feelings in my heart

Love is the last thing I need
Why do you wanna make me bleed?
The way that some people operate
Is like hate doing cosplay
I don’t know what made me this way
But I’m trying hard to say
Not everything on our mind
Feels the same way at the same time
Lovin is just a disease
Made up of different needs
If we don’t maintain boundaries
We’re just bound to become unbound
I’m not willing to compromise
All these feelings of self worth
Just to be recognized as yours
Love is the last thing I need
Even as you plead
I’ve tried to see it your way
A world of sunshine and butterflies
I guess my vision of gloom
Has churned out a heart of doom
Despite these experiences life tried to give me
It was lost on me, cuz
Lovin is just a disease
Made up of different needs
If we don’t maintain boundaries
We’re just bound to become unbound
I’m not willing to compromise
All these feelings of self worth
Just to be recognized as yours

I’m not gonna hold your hand
No one here seems to understand
What it really means to me
To be with someone that loves me
I wish you were not in disguise
Only pretending to be on my side
When all you ever really want
Is to take me away so you can play your games
You don’t have that something
That would ever make me feel okay
About being with someone
I had this thought the other day
I don’t wanna hold your hand
Simply watching as you go through life
Cuz I had my own plan
How it was all gonna just work out
I had my doubts at first about you
But now I can fully see
Living life without you
Don’t seem so bad to me
Cuz you don’t have that something
That would ever make me feel okay
About being with someone
I had this thought the other day
You don’t have that something
That would ever make me feel allright
About being with someone
Seems I’ll be alone tonight
Oh, I’m not gonna hold your hand
No one seems to understand
Well, I’m not gonna hold your hand
And I don’t think that makes me bad
No, I’m not gonna hold your hand
Always seems to make you glad
Oh, I’m not gonna hold your hand
And I don’t care if that makes you sad

Swan Song
02:45
|

He knows when he gets home that she'll be gone
Wonders if he should call it his home any longer
Knows when he gets home that she'll be gone gone gone
Hopes that he never awakens to the swan song
Loves her bad and that should be enough
It makes him sad it's really gonna suck
Draw closer to the flame and immolate
Burn burn
She knows when she wakes up that he'll be gone
Can't help but ask herself if he was the one
Knows when she wakes up that he'll be gone gone gone
All through her sleep she's singing the swan song
Makes her madly and now she's had too much
She loves him badly it's really gonna suck
Draw closer to the flame and immolate
Burn burn

Useless Motherfucker
02:07
|

Lemme tell you about a useless motherfucker I know me one
Yeah the version of me back when I was young
Spending all this time losing his mind
He thought everything would just turn out fine
If he didn't give a shit about waiting in line
Until his time arrived to carve out a life
Why’d he have to be
So cruel to me
I coulda got to where I am
And known all that I know
So many years ago
If he had stuck to the plan
For how you're gonna live to twenty eight
I know you hate life but it could be great
Don't be a piece of shit, just try and enjoy it
I know that you thought that you’d be a ghost
Before anything happened that you loved the most
Behind you in a stack, dead friends at your back
Why’d you have to be
So cruel to all of them
All they tried to do was be your friend
Whatever kind of help
Could have come from me
Didn’t get here soon enough for you
Lost so many people all along the way
So I’m thinking to myself almost every day
What could I have done to keep you in my life?
Burned so many bridges trying to get here
Sank all of my boats simply out of fear
I wouldn’t follow through, and it cost me all of you
Lemme tell you about a useless motherfucker I know me one

Sod Story
02:12
|

It's a sod story it's a story of dirt
The only thing in the world
That never meant to hurt anyone
It was nothing but fun
Never felt cleaner than way back when
Rolling in the mud
Like a pig in his stupid pen
With my dirty friends
When I look at the world from way down low
I can finally see my place in this great plan
Every shovel load I throw behind me
Shows everyone that I’m indeed the man
You can eat dirt it would not even hurt
Roll it up in a ball
And chuck it like a dirt bomb
While you sing this song
When I die throw me in the compost
That simple fate
Is the one that I want the most
Cuz I would be a ghost
When I look at the world from up above
I see several flaws upon the land
The one thing that has not come to offend me
Is when I’ve got some dirt all on my hands
It's a sod story it's a story of dirt
The only thing in the world
That never meant to hurt anyone
It was nothing but fun
With my dirty friends
Will you sing this song
When I am a ghost?

Let's Talk Trash
02:15
|

Let’s talk trash
I hate to have to ask
If you’d clean up after yourself
It would be such a great help
To know you really seem to care
And everyone will be there
To see just how we’re living
And I want them to be proud
Of how clean our place is
Taking out the trash
Can never happen fast enough
Enough for you to leave behind
Whatever has been on your mind
It really seems to bother you
And I’d like you to see it through
No matter what it takes we make mistakes
Along the way
How did we get here?
Love your garbageman
If you can
Bearing the burden of our ways
Even on our worst day
He still comes through for us
Almost never makes a fuss
About the trust we keep
It makes me weep to think they’re ever lonely
Only love your garbageman

Shovelin shovelin shovelin shit
This is the little ditty for it
Shovelin shovelin shovelin shit
I don’t care what you say
As long as this shit appears
You’ve got nothin to fear
Cuz this shovel here
Was made just for this job
Scoopin up scoopin up scoopin up poop
Some of us bend and others will stoop
Scoopin up scoopin up scoopin up poop
Think you get the idea
When each new poop appears
You’ve got nothin to fear
Cuz this scooper here
Was made just for one job
Manure, manure, manure, manure
Of this thing you can be sure
Manure, manure, manure, manure
Gonna get it all over me
Wherever manure appears
You’ve got nothin to fear
Cuz this super hero here
Was made just for a job
You were made just for one job
You only had one job
You were made for a job
You only had one job

Career Day
02:36
|
|||
What do you wanna be when you grow up?
Where are you gonna be where you can just show up?
Comes a time we all decide how we’re living until we die
It lands on a special day
Wonder if I’ll be an engineer
Or if I’ll even be here
If I become a policeman
Will I be the same man?
Scratching at my brain when I’m alone
Scraping through the classifieds and pick up the phone
I don’t always know where these thought processes go
We’re expected to comply
I think of being an astronaut
And if what it takes is what I have got
If I was really a scientist
Would I end up on someone’s list?
Of people to look out for because they’re dangerous
In the marketplace for running all of this
Walking right down the hall, showing honestly
My perfect choice for career day
I wanna be a musician

It Can All Go Wrong
02:13

Gotta have a sense of humor to work in music
You gotta be able to laugh if you wanna sing songs
Cuz it can all go wrong
Gotta have a sense of humor to be a musician
You gotta be able to laugh if you’re gonna hold a tune
You could be a buffoon
At the moment everyone is counting on you
Just about anything can happen then
And when we test the mettle of our people
Well, that’s one way to lose a lot of friends
Gotta have a sense of humor to work in a kitchen
You gotta be able to laugh if you wanna make food
Cuz it can be so rude
Gotta have a sense of humor to be a bartender
You gotta be able to laugh if you’re gonna serve drinks
Cuz it can make you think
Seems like someone’s always there to try to tell you
Nothing for them will ever be enough
To them I've only found one simple answer
Feed them in their face until they're stuffed
Gotta have a sense of humor to work anywhere
You gotta be able to laugh if you want to get a job
Cuz it can make you sob
I’m sobbing uncontrollably
It can all go wrong

Hurry Up and Wait
01:44
|

Hurry up and wait
First we're gonna hurry up and then we're gonna wait
Everyone can tell that we are clearly here to stay
Seems that we’ve all agreed you can't always leave when you want to
Hurry up and wait
Hustling to get us here and then you demonstrate
Don’t really matter if we do the things we say
Every time this happens I tell myself no more
Making time for you every day
Always finding a way to say
Don’t matter when we get there
What you don’t realize
My time is important to me
Hurry up and wait
When do you need me to arrive at your place?
What are we doing and what’s it gonna take?
When did I agree to be treated in this way?
Hurry up and wait
When do we get out of here and then you’re gonna say
I can think of something else and there it goes my day
I can think along the lines “What did I get into?”
You never share your plans
Treated more like a dog than a man
How can I obey your commands?
If you don’t communicate
How can I read your mind?
Hurry up and wait
First we're gonna hurry up and then we're gonna wait
Everyone can tell that we are clearly here to stay
Seems that we’ve all agreed you can't always leave when you want to

Your sex makes me want fried chicken
Oh it makes me wanna eat food
Just telling y’all how I’m feeling
I ain’t trying to be rude
Whenever I eat fried chicken
I’m just thinking about you
I don’t know what I’m about to do
If you can’t explain your heart
Well that’s nowhere to start
Get used to living lonesome all the time
When you get to know me
You know I’m here to please
Trying to get you over to my side
Too many cooks in the kitchen
Too many cooks for sure
Too many cooks in the kitchen
Too many cooks to be pure
Too many cooks in the kitchen
Too many cooks for me
I have had about enough of this
If you’re so afraid of fire
You live on a live wire
Always looking down at all of us
I know just what to say
If we’re gonna save the day
Why don’t you and I get out of here?
Too many guests for dining
Too many want a plate
Too many names to call
Don’t you dare be late
Too many people here
Too many people there
I get the drift that don’t none of you care
If you can’t stay away
I’ll put you in your place
Laying down right here next to me
How this will turn out
We have all got doubts
I’m gonna be here for you just the same

Jalapenis

Jalapenis, oh, jalapenis
Wanting to go down but you know that it would ruin the scene, yes?
Oh, jalapenis, oh, jalapenis
You’re gonna be alone ‘til you put that spicy thing away
How many peppers could a madman pick
If every other pepper looked like it had a dick?
Would you eat it raw or shove it in the fire?
Do you even know what I’m singing about?
It’s not nearly as dirty as you’re thinking about
If anything, the thought will keep you clean
Cuz that would be very mean
To offer help of a personal dream come true
If you’ve been eating spicy foods all day
So why don’t you just stay away from me
And I’ll just stay away from you
Until such time as this has passed
Jalapenis, oh, jalapenis
Wanting to go down but you know that it would ruin the scene, yes?
Oh, jalapenis, oh, jalapenis
You’re gonna be alone ‘til you put that spicy thing away
I don’t know about you but I could go
For a penis shaped jalapeno
If you can imagine what that would be like
Roasted, fried and skinned alive
Split it out and scrapin the sides
Chop it all into a fine brunoise
Candy, slaw and chimichurri
This is what a jalapeno means to me
There’s so many way to prepare yourself
But if you wanna touch my yoo hoo hoo
You better wash your hands and use gloves too
Cuz I don’t want it to all turn out wrong
Jalapenis, oh, jalapenis
Wanting to go down but you know that it would ruin the scene, yes?
Oh, jalapenis, oh, jalapenis
You’re gonna be alone ‘til you put that spicy thing away

Home Shopping Network

Well, look at all the things we can't buy while we get high
There’s no way to understand a faulty society
But if we try we might recall that we need things
And you can find just what you’re looking for
On the home shopping network
Go and take a look just what’s for sale today
Anything and everything with a price to pay
If you’re seeing anything that you would like
Give us a call we will ride on our bikes
I don’t really like this surprise that for me to survive
I’ve got to indoctrinate myself
Into a cult that prefers death expending life like it’s made of sand
We’ll meet your demands
On the home shopping network
Go and take a look just what’s for sale today
Anything and everything with a price to pay
If you’re seeing anything that you would like
Give us a call we will ride on our bikes
Open every package by the time it arrives
Tell us if it’s broken or if it’s not alive
We’d like to hear from you every day
Make sure you’re watching so you can save
