I'm a Slug
02:45
|
|||
I'm waiting for you to ask me to call you
to ask if you want to hang out
I'm waiting for you to tell me you want me
to tell you I need you now
I like to get my boxes double checked
I like every pencil mark to be correct
want you involved in the decision process
cuz you might not like what's coming next
I'm a leaf carried on your breeze
you're a bombshell baby I'm the debris
you are a warrior you will not cave
but I'm a slug waiting to be saved
I can't look in your eyes without feeling disturbed
I'm paralyzed by advice that I heard
am I the only soul in this whole restaurant
who's terrified of getting what I want
it'll take a lot of convincing for me
to fuck someone i wanna fuck who wants to fuck me

Elected to Nothing
03:12
|

What’s the problem with mediocrity
I don’t wanna be a great man
I wanna be me
I’m running in circles faster the speed of sound
I’m on a rocket ship
Straight to the underground
I’m always searching for something
I’m always dancing for praise
I got elected to nothing
I’ll serve the rest of my days
patience comes to those who wait
good things come to people with
good thing fate
I’m driven by intertia
I can’t stop staying the same
I’m running out the clock for a living
On the living game
I’m mired down I need admirers now
And if you can’t help me you can get right out
I wanna break free from me

The Shit Pit
03:34
|
|||
Everybody’s tryin to be fine upstanding
Everybody’s daddy was just so demanding
Everybody’s got a deeper point of view
Everybodys gotta get a look at you
You’re schlub in your heart and you know it
you get dressed in the dark and you show it
Cut the tags off your hat and your sunshades too
they can’t look in your eyes but they see through you
I hit the shit pit
With no one by my side
If I live to regret
I’ll regret that I’m alive
I’m in the dragon’s den and
I’m in the hornet’s nest
I’ve got til count of ten
I’ve got a last request
just Let me outta here Let me outta here
Everybody’s coming back from their vacations
Everyones got theories about motivation
everybodys reading a new book or two
Everybody’s got some things to say to you

I'm a Stupid Baby
03:53
|
|||
I’ve got a house up on the hill
I’ve got some demons here to kill
I’ve got a scarcity of joy
I’ve got you under my employ
I spend my life in terror of the shareholders
want you take me to a place they can’t hold us
they say to stay alive you got to move forward
but I’m asking you to aim a little lower
I’m a stupid baby baby
I’m so stupid crazy crazy
I want kisses don’t say maybe
You are mommy so please raise me
I want
no responsibility
I want
somebody to swaddle me
I want
nothin to do
I want
attention from you
can’t trust
me to behave myself
can’t trust me
to bathe myself
I don’t know
whats wrong from whats right
don’t expect me
to sleep thru the nite
I’m a sinister man in a sinister world
I let it lay where it lands, or else I go in reverse
you got that one thing I been dreaming of
a absence of judgment and a a whole lotta love
I’m a stupid baby baby
I’m so stupid crazy crazy
You are mommy so please raise me
I want kisses don’t say maybe
baby I’m the boss but I would make a boss baby
baby I’m the boss but I would make a boss baby
baby I’m the boss but I would make a boss baby
baby I’m the boss but I would make a boss baby

You Nabbed a Loser
02:00

Everybody’s tryin to be somebody
But buddy you can’t always get what you want
I see you comin here to sit with me
But I suggest that you don’t
You nabbed a loser
You nabbed a loser baby
You coulda had a bruiser
you know what you deserve but now you’re stuck with me
you like to play it safe
I hardly play at all
I’m picking up my phone
before you even call
I come from nothing
and to nothing I will return
I’ll always thank you
for the bridges that you burned
You nabbed a loser
You nabbed a loser baby
You coulda had a bruiser
you know what you deserve but now you’re stuck with me
you’ll probably better off you’re probably better off you’re probably better off I know I'm better off

Under the Sea
02:58
|
|||
I’ve received a dispatch from the bottom of the sea
Everybody down there’s going crazy over me
They’ve got a poster of my face
They say they miss me
They’ll send a dollar if I
Let them kiss me
Back in ancient times my father pulled himself out from the water
He lay down on the sand and then he gave birth to a son and daughter
He said goodbye to all the people he had loved
As so below he thought as so above
Somewhere deep below the sea
There’s a place where everybody’s in love with me
Girls like you won’t understand
Your hearts were tainted by land
looks like I’m alone again
cuz you don’t know I’ve found my friends
where they’ve always been
under the sea
(swim swim swim)
I dive down so deep I’m so full of grace
Pressures setting in I feel the oceans warm embrace
I see a shining light a calling me
I have reached a heaven that was always meant to be

Cash in on Passion
04:13
|
|||
I’m selling the sizzle but the
sizzle don’t sound so good
I was crunchin the numbers but they
crunched a little more than they should
went out looking for action
panning the river for gold
I came back as a fraction
with my soul as yet unsold
dollar signs are in my eyes when I look at you
the bottom line is on my mind
what’s good for business is what’s good for me
I hang on the every cycle of the capital economy
I just wanna
cash in on passion
cuz cash is my passion
And I don’t like the taste of integrity
I wanna cash in on passion while
Cash is in fashion
I wanna get in on the trend before it passes me
I know where my bread is buttered
But I know they won’t let me in
I’m selling indulgence for your
original sins
I’m just trying to supply your demand
won’t pay no mind to your invisible hand
I know that pricelessness is only a phrase
I know how hard I have to work to earn my wage
whats good for business is whats
good for me
whats good for business is whats
good for me

To the Moon
01:45
|
|||
take me back to the room where it started
maybe this time we don’t have to leave
you say you can’t sit there feeling scared and broken hearted
but I can do anything as long as I believe
all my life I’ve been a running from trouble
but my troubles always followed me home
I’m not giving up on running from trouble
but I’m running where my troubles can’t go
They said you can’t stay here but you gotta go somewhere
I been out in the world and you’re lyin if you ain’t scared
but they said
show em what you got
show em what that ass can do
I said put me in a pod
shoot me to the moon

No Ambiguity
02:50
|
|||
Well I'm just the luckiest boy in this world
you say so far I say so good
not everything that goes up
must come down
not every single fuck up
winds up in the ground
oh I'm living in a world with no ambiguity
I don't know how you do what you do, what you do to me
I only tell true truths I'll tell you myself
I don't need to talk to anyone else
cuz it's true
and it's you
Well I'm just the luckiest boy in the world
my skin is fresh and my hair is curled
God smiles down on me, I feel his light
he tells me never never give up the fight
and you're wrong
but he's right

What Kind of Man
04:06
|
|||
the rules of god ain't occupying you
you had to make some of your own
think everybody's always lying to you
that hits a little close to home
you got a face that launched a thousand fists and
you gave em reason to treat you like this
you were born with an inquisitive brain and
I got a question for you to explain
What kind of man
(what kind of man are you)
what kind of man are you
what kind of friend
(what kind of man are you)
what kind of friend are you
you're the king of your own shitty domain
you've developed a tolerance for physical pain
you've got an income and you've got your health
you've got a loving relationship with your self
everything you've got you got it yourself
everything you've brought you've brought on yourself
no place for kindness in this ugly world
as you're always explaining to the boys & girls
