Make no mistake about it
Everything I know is doubted
By old world common knowledge
But not the kind that comes from college
It's hard to conversate
It's way too hard to debate
People who are set in their ways
of black and white without the grays
Could you tell me what is I'm missing
From an obvious solution?
Tell me I have wrong opinons
Tell me from your own conclusion
Good ideas I've met have guessed
Shot down by self righteousness
Somehow I believe that certainty
In anything is equivalent to self purgery.
I don't believe that you are who you are
I get the sense you've been programmed like a VCR
So depenedent on your television
To help you make every day decisions
Could you tell me what is I'm missing
From an obvious solution?
Tell me I have wrong opinons
Tell me from your own conclusion
Not the one you took from your parents
The one to you that's most apparent
From what you've been through. From what you've realized.
The things you've witnessed with your own eyes.
How can there be absolute truth
With more possibilites than a rubix cube?
Is there someone in the immediate proximity
That can verify the validity of this widespread anonymity?
Could you tell me what is I'm missing
From an obvious solution?
Tell me I have wrong opinons
Tell me from your own conclusion
Could you tell me what is I'm missing
From an obvious solution
Tell me I have wrong opinons
Tell me from your own conclusion
If my calculations are incorrect.
Then everything I've learned I'll just forget.

Dance Party Extinction
03:24
|

I'm tired of partying with my generation
Somebody please change that mother fuckin station
I don't give a shit about booties and bling
I just wanna hear a catchy song that I can sing
You can keep your Cash Money
If you bring back my Eddie Money
Reggaeton-deaf repetitive drums
ain't got nothin on "girls just wanna have fun"
I wanna be on the dancefloor
But nobody wants to dance anymore
They just wanna play beer pong beer pong
Nobody cares about a good song
Don't invite me cuz your party's lame
I don't care about no football game
The only sports that could make me do this
is by the News and Huey Lewis
i don't want none of your gin and juice
I just wanna kick off my sunday shoes
Footloose! Footloose! like Kevin Bacon
Move the table and the red cups and lets get shakin'
I wanna be on the dancefloor
But nobody wants to dance anymore
They just wanna play beer pong beer pong
Nobody cares about a good song
I'd rather party with people in their 40s
Drink some 40s to UB40
I don't need to play beirut
I just need some Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo
I wanna be on the dancefloor
But nobody wants to dance anymore
They just wanna play beer pong beer pong
Nobody cares about a good song
Just swing your arms from side to side
Maybe later on we can do the electric slide
We can dance dance without revolution
Rock and roll ain't noise pollution
Turn off the xbox, turn on the boombox
I'll show you how the Bangles showed me how the Egyptians walk
I like my old time rock n roll
Today's music ain't got the same soul
Who the hell is Lil Wayne? Who the hell is T-Pain?
I like Prince's Purple Rain Purple rain
Every time my niggas wanna drag me to da club
I stay at home drink to dat mother fuckin Culture Club.

Girl it's been a long time since the day you were mine
Through mental sickness and in mental health, there has been no one else
To make me feel the way you do
But I'm not always true to you
Why does it feel so cold? Can't feel your body heat
When you're lying right next to me
Can you let me know what this is all about?
Don't turn away now...
Even though I try to hide, it seems that you can tell
You know my body language, you know me far too well
Baby, It gets hard when you're not around
But I know I'm guilty as charged when you don't make a sound
I always try to run away. I never get very far.
Why does it feel so cold? Can't feel your body heat
When you're lying right next to me
Yet I know what this is all about?
So I guess I'll turn away now...

And the story drags along
With my glory strapped on
With closets and basements below
Filled with bags of old clothes
Boxes stacked to the floor
Of my upstairs neighbors abode
Week old dinners in the fridge
I'm just not convinced that it's garbage
I just can't throw away all of my memories
But storing all these years will be the end of me
Selling these pogs, and games, and dusty old antiques
Gives me the worst kind of anxiety
If my shirt has rips and holes
It makes them holier than thou
I have shelves and shelves of books
but still don't know what they're about
I'm sure it takes more than a smile
For someone to disarm me
I think it's time my G.I. Joes
Joined the Salvation Army

The Other Side
02:53
|
|||
Stuck in the middle
I was so little
I was just a child
Too young to see it transpire
Please don't disown me
While I get to know me
You'll never understand what it's like to grow up on the sideline
All I know is fear and hate for what is on the other side
Here is a box you're
never to open
Don't talk to anyone
There's always someone
Waiting to take you away
Don't even bother to look, they could be anywhere
No disrespect Mother, but I need to know
What kind of monsters lurk in the shadows
You'll never understand what it's like to grow up on the sideline
All I know is fear and hate for what is on the other side
Everyone at some point need question their faith
There's no malice, no intent to betray
You'll never understand what it's like to grow up on the sideline
All I know is fear and hatred for what's on the other side
I'm not trying to forget or forgive, I just need another perspective
I need both sides of the story. What I don't know is what will destroy me.

Insects And Infections
04:04
|

Open sores, and swollen pores
Unfortunate boys tortured, but they ignore
The 6 legged beasts upon their neck
Bodies clothed by swarms of insects
It's just a picture on a page of an educational magazine
There's no description for the sensation that it's giving me
Run run away from the blood made symmetry
Run run away from insects and infections
Can you feel the hives, bee hives, hi definition brings this scene to life
Pages so thin, But I feel these heinous minions diggin holes in my skin
I'm cramping up from the top my stomach to the bottom of my waistline
Everybody head for the hills, I feel these chills climbing up and down my spine
Goosebumps like swollen tumors and boyles,
Symptoms of flu produce fevers that boil.
How can these pictures bring upon sickness?
Contagious images? Can one get rid of this?

2 weeks ago I learned to live a little more
After the kind of news that makes your jaw just hit the floor
I see you all standing there
But how the hell can one prepare
I just need some time to myself...
I'm Leaving here.
I have no use for fear.
I have no tears in my eyes.
So let me enjoy my demise.
Leave me here
So I can laugh and cheer
And sing the songs that I will keep
Even after I fall asleep
2 months ago I came home for the very last time
To reclaim everything and everyone that I could call mine.
But now there's this time limit
4 years gone in just one instance
Please spare your time to listen
to me, scream
I'm staying here.
I'll have another beer.
I can't be left alone
When the call I've been waiting for hits my phone
Family,
I don't want to be around
When I start to scream
I'd rather have my friends hold me down.
Sometimes you can't hold on
The disease gets too strong
Doesn't mean to let go.
It simply means just let go.
(No more tomorrow, baby
Time is today
Girl, I can make you feel
Okay
No place for hidin baby
No place to run
You pull the trigger of my...)

Ursula

Don't believe everything that you read
In all the forums and trashy magazines
Not your typical beauty queen
She won't bite the hand that feeds
And she's all I wanted her to be
Shed your skin and show your true colors to me.
I will take care of you
Cuz Only I know the truth
It doesn't matter what they say
Ursula, Don't turn away
You're the girl who broke the mold
Standards and myths of the old
Take my hand girl, Don't be afraid
My Ursula won't walk away
I can't believe how much she's grown
In the short time that I have known
She's broken from her cage
Now she's the star of a bigger stage
Don't forget about the love you leave behind
Don't you know you'll always be mine? be mine.

I think the humans
have gone away for now
I think I'll take another nap
Then run around the house
I'll make a mess, and tear up papers
Then I'll fly above skyscrapers
Ever since my day of birth
It's been my job to save the earth
My name is SuperMomo
That's a name the humans don't know
Dog by day, hero by night
Weak to chocolate kryptonite
I mix my dry food with my wet
Then leave a hot present by the steps
Chewing things made of rubber
Confusing sit with rollover
These are the things that help a brother
Keep from blowing up his cover
While Scooby Doo solves mysteries
I'm making bad guys history
My name is SuperMomo
That's a name the humans don't know
I am Protector of peace
As long as I'm not off my leash
My name is SuperMomo
That's a name the humans don't know
Saving people is my duty
That smell is also my doodie
Momo to the rescue!
(ruff! ruff!)
My name is SuperMomo
That's a name the humans don't know
I am called upon by a symbol
They reward me with Bits and Kibble
My name is SuperMomo
That's a name the humans don't know
When catching villains I never fail
Except for the one they call "Tail."

Excuse me Mr. Reverand
My soul has been tainted by sin
I got an appetite for blood and skin
Is there something in your book that'd make me whole again?
There's too much devil in my rock n roll
And Not enough Jesus in my soul
I must be the walking dead
Cuz all I feel is your hand upon my head.
You must feel real good inside
Making a dime off fear and lies
off some old widow, for her man she grieves
You can take her pain if she's willing to believe
They claim that you're their savior.
But you don't show their dead bodies 6 months later
Forgive me Mr. Televangelist
But it might be satan in my body saying that you're full of shit.
You say that you are some sort of prophet
But how does saving souls result in profit?
Who are these folks that you're exploiting?
Cancer patients awake at 4 in the mornin?
There's too much devil in my rock n roll
And Not enough Jesus in my soul
I must be the anti-Christ
Because my body's rejecting all your lies.
You like to prey on the weak and gullible
I don't mean to burst your bubble
Forgive me Mr. Televangelist
But it might be satan in my body saying that you're full of shit.

Ride At Midnight
03:24
|

Hello dusk
Cover the land with purple dust
Exhale the air so fantastic
Its fragrance is orgasmic
If you got the gas, I've got the wheels
I want you to see how it makes me feel
To have the earthly ghost
breathe down my throat
We can go for a ride at midnight
Drive toward the stars beyond the moonlight
Roll down your windows, the wind knows, it carries
All of the secrets you whisper to me
I know of a shortcut that nobody knows
It's the longest winding desert of a back road
It feels the best when everyone has gone to bed.
Just you, me, and my vehicle raising the dead
We can go for a ride at midnight
Drive toward the stars beyond the moonlight
Roll down your windows, the wind knows, it carries
All of the secrets you whisper to me
Officer, I don't drink and drive
It's just the moon makes me feel alive
Officer, I don't drink and drive
The air at night is what gets me high

Beer Is Your Friend
02:17
|

You saved my life so many times
The way you pour the way you shine
The foam that sits on the top your head
Makes me glad that you're my best friend
Beer... Oh beer... Take me away
Because you never let me down
Sometimes you're pale sometimes your brown
Someone that I can't forget about
Especially when you're a stout
Some say that you're a bitter dude
But you're cool by me, cuz you're microbrewed
Anybody who claims to be straight edge
Obviously never had a Dogfishead
Beer... My dear... Please don't go away
Because you never let me down
Sometimes you're pale sometimes your brown
Someone that I can't forget about
Especially when you're a stout
So many years misunderstood
Mass produced piss that don't taste good
It's time to show the world who's back
Real beers don't come in 30racks
Some people don't like you when you're on cask
But I don't mind if you're warm or flat
This might sound gay, But I'll say it aloud
Get in my mouth! Get in my mouth!
Because you never let me down
Sometimes you're pale sometimes your brown
Someone that I can't forget about
Especially when you're a stout
Thank you for being a friend to me.

The roar of the crowd
That amps not too loud
It's the best show that you've had
For mom and for dad.
There's no radio station
Just some fun and recreation
You start to feel the fire
Off the strings of your new squire
Living in the lemonlight
The universal pipe dream
Whatever helps you sleep.
Or develops your self esteem
Go out and give it your all
At every church and every Legion hall
You know that love will find you
As soon as someone signs you
Here I go, turn the pages
If I can get past the lineup changes
Different strokes for different stages
Broadcasting live from yo basement
We got a cdr signing for the kids
It's magic marker of the tracklist
The cutest chick gets my drumsticks
I'm a rock god, man, who'd a thunk it?
You don't have to work hard.
If you wanna be a star.
Anyone can be a guitar...
Hero...

Conjunction junction
What's my dysfunction?
It's susceptibility
to self destruction
I have to get my ass in gear
Before I waste another year
Dead set on making progress
After cleaning up my first mess
I shouldn't have wasted my time
on so many dead end prospects
I'm glad I made up my mind
Once I saw that I was so pathetic
Rehabilitation
is musical masturbation
Rely on no one
to place my faith in
I guess my worst and biggest fear
Is wasting the next 5 years
Sudden death overtime
Now or never or just nevermind
I shouldn't have wasted my life
on so many hopeless projects
I'm glad to finally decide
to do this right so I can stop regretting

Demon Heart

Precious pressure
is indecent exposure
when i...
Show my demon heart without restraint
display my concentrated pain
Release me, Relieve me
And let the angel die
Retreating this feeling
Every angel has to die
Why do I let this happen?
She uses my love as a weapon.
To destroy an ego, more like a trigger
To make this demon heart grow bigger
Deceive me, mistreat me
And let the angel die
Discard me, Discharge me
And let this angel die
Another me, another me, another me, is like a drug.
Them dames, them dames are all the same
Set me ablaze, but they can't take the heat of flames
Release me, Relieve me
And let the angel die
Defeated by demons
created by an angel who couldn't fly
