Blue Tenant
02:01
|
|||
|
Got a message from the landlord
A complaint from the neighbors
Hair dye, shag haircut
Rent's going up
Rich kid from the city
Come to live like a peasant
Five bed, three bathroom
Seven thousand square feet

Cruelty Contrary
02:26
|

|
Who among you is without sin?
Adorned with morning dew and moss?
Apathy is our best policy
We cast the stones that we just found
Anxious
Stressed out
Anxious
Stressed out
But I'm okay
Acting aloof for the sex appeal
Propaganda leather jockey
Rolling the dice on the only common ground we have
Vanity over matter

Oyster in a Box
01:50
|
|||
|
You wanna see the truth? Then tear away the plastic
A smear of molten horse to seal the tasty flavors
Emulate surprise, what did you expect?
A fantasy revealed, a mollusk opened wide
Find the hidden layer, expose it to the masses
Find the hidden fear, expose it to your assets
Blinding shiny chrome, it tastes like sweet molasses
Clench your fist in anger, and serve your lord
Oyster in a box

Hey, buddy
Give me all your cash
I'm talking money, honey
Do nothing rash
I thank you, sir
Have a pleasant day
How was your trip?
Enjoy your stay
I look into the sky at the golden hour
I listen to the trees for howls and birdsongs
I smell every flower from here to gate nine
I feel every fabric on every spine

God's Own Hourglass
02:58
|
|||
|
Count your sins, baby, count your sins
Rock the boat into the moat and let that motherfucker sail
Cast your sights on the great light of beyond
Coarse your veins with coarser grains than the crack chucked in from the windowpane
Bless these walls, for they house our love
Stained the glass in many a church with the black fur coat of a unicorn
Stray not from his light, for he made you his own
And he asked me, only me, to beg those beggars for their coin

Value Champagne
02:08
|
|||
|
Gin and tonic, top shelf
Fancy bourbon, cheap rocks
A glass of pinot for the lady
Vacant eyes from the barkeep
It ain't cheap if it ain't free
A glass of value champagne for me

Cheshire Grin
01:48
|
|||
|
You seem so intent on winning, everything your way
I learned so long ago that you ain't got no poker face
You think you'll win with your Cheshire grin?

Learn To Dance
02:07
|

|
Step one: Let your feet move on their own
Step two: Shake your hips, get in the zone
Step three : Kill your neighbor, slap your dad, break your telephone
Learn to dance
Step one: Shake the baby, lock the door
Step two: Twist the knife, feel the gore
Step three: Event horizon, event horizon. Bother me no more.
Learn to dance
Shake it

Comatose for now
In her blood-stained towel
I saw death
Red concubine
Full glass of wine
I saw death
I saw death
