I pissed away a lot of my time Not reading between the lines I changed my clothes, my face and my name Shit just wound up the same Cigarette kisses dead on the floor This town's in ruins it don't work no more Stupid girls making stupid doe eyes One look and they're swarming like flies I took the time to give it a shot I just turned into something I'm not I found the queen of all of my dreams We won't be lonely on Halloween

Holiday 02:34
Holiday: I'll freak you out with a bad trip Birthday cake: I'll put my foot right inside it Wedding day: I'll have a punch up with the bride Funeral pyre: You'll end up buried alive I can't please with what I have to say So don't depend on me to have your day Can I ask one thing before you go Just tell me how I did please let me know

I don't wanna get a job Don't care if my friends think I'm a slob Wanna be my own boss Take a two hour lunch break I don't wanna get a job I know it's just a part of life But I don't want it to be a part of mine P45s, accident books Stupid uniforms don't got the look Wanna be my own boss Take a three hour lunch break I don't wanna get a job I can't relate to the boss dude Only thing it's good for is writing a sweet tune

Ana Log 04:17
I'm in love with Ana I'm in love with Ana Log I don't need no other I don't want no other one She's got grace and she's got style It really turns me on to see those dials Her love it knows no limits Her warm embrace well I'm right in it I know she feels the same We'll always feel this way We don't care what people say It's better of this way She gets loud but I don't mind She's got so much depth it takes time to find I really love to push her buttons People think that we're old fashioned Ana na na na na

Stepping out, all about While our sun is getting sicker You know it's bad, when you've had None a day and getting thinner Then you start to get that feeling That you've been here before Talons tiptoe on the lino floor Stepping out, all around They make all these things for dummies Make a sound, cause it's all allowed Chicken pickin' with their honeys Then you start to get that feeling You think you're sinking Drowning in electric puddles I don't need anybody But I need you

When she said "Do you wanna hear music?" I said "Yeah", thought I shouldn't refuse it Took us up to a place on a hillside Didn't know what awaited us inside The nuns don't get none And I don't get them Everybody's staring Wondering what you're wearing This isn't ice cream We scream Let's get out of town Let's get out of town Let's get out of town We oughta get out of town Stopped to ask for directions home They just laughed, said "You won't make it alone" I can tell there's a curse on this town Beady eyes are wearing me down They won't say how we can leave We'll be here for eternity Everybody's scary Why so wary? This isn't ice cream We scream

Bugs 01:44
They're up the walls, in the hall On the floor, in the drawers In the pipes, in the cracks Don't hold back just give 'em a whack They're on TV, in disguise Wearing suits right in front of your eyes Spinning yarns, telling lies Winning hearts and ruining lives Don't hold back we're singing Don't hold back just give 'em a whack

Zom Song 02:54
Please don't wake me from this beautiful dream Where the living dead are fighting you and me I'm not that good so you protect me Even my jujutsu couldn't save our skin I don't know if it means anything But it means something to me So I'll take a sleeping pill So I can fall asleep at will Dream about the end of the world And how we'll save all human kind They're not that scary when they're in the flesh Even as they're trying to take chunks out of our necks We're all suited up, busting our best moves The rate we're going these fuckers have to lose

Hammered 03:44
Paint over me, strip me down I can read my fortune in this town Summer's gone and I'm forgotten I'm deep fried and out of date Trying to conceal my hate In this English country garden The wind is there, I feel it in my hair It's whispering that I can feel something somewhere The road is long and something might go wrong I've got a grip but I just don't know for how long

Men with bears' heads and frogs' legs Not who they're supposed to be Birds escape painful deaths For a life of anxiety Take me home, I wanna lie with you But you don't hear me calling There's a demon on the loose He tried to run me down, but I stood my ground When I looked back, there was no one behind the wheel He's not alone, he's got his clones They don't care 'bout how you feel Girls with brain jams and spray tans Not who they could have been Boys evade all that they can For a life of sobriety

about

Love, laziness, isolation, politics and paranoia, all to the backdrop of fuzzy, scuzzy, melodic pop hooks.
