Young People

You are tossed in serpents
You are drenched in alcohol
All the trust on the premises
Doesn't mean anything at all
It doesn't mean anything at all
The young people know when they're having fun
and they feel so alone
King speaks in circles
King says nothing at all
All the thrust on his premises
Never meant anything at all
The kingdom is bound to fall
The young people know when they're having fun
and they feel so alone
You only get one chance to have your fun in this world
and then it's over
Roll up the sleeves of the ancient world
You can see they got it wrong
You only get one chance to have your fun in this world
and then it's over

Dial Tone

I remember the pay phone
I remember the dial tone
I remember that switch blade
Forty dollars and the aftershave
Everybody likes to say to me:
Eat or be eaten
Everybody likes to say to me:
Kill or be killed
For so long we've been innocent
So good is that inner sense
Denial is mysterious
Turn the mirror toward ourselves
Everybody likes to say to me:
Eat or be eaten
Everybody likes to say to me:
Kill or be killed
I remember the pay phone
I remember the dial tone

Shitty Speed

You wish your daddy liked the underground
But your daddy liked bad company
and shitty speed
Pouring poison on his insides
He is running out of paper money
and shitty speed
In the company of women
He is acting very different
Little hope inside the underground
They're surrounded by oligarchy
They'll break your knees
Pouring poison on our insides
They will run us out of paper money
With the shit they speak
In the company of women
Don't be acting very different
And don't be laughing on the outside
because you're gonna get denied
That's the baby boom decree

Disarmed

Are you waiting for the fun to slow you down?
I am waiting for the fun to oscillate
You say you feel great
I can barely muster my reply
Staying up too late
Think about it when the conversation dies
I was looking for life-long laughter
Looked around, no one said or did anything
We believe in a system
I made a point to miss all of it
Staying up too late
Think about it when the conversation dies
It's been so easy to fuck up my life
You in the backseat sayin "Shut up and drive"
It's been so hard to just turn off and hide
I've been disarmed for most of my life

Tired Medium

Men wearing blazers and jeans
Wash hands after shaking hands
Sick of all the coughs
from a barroom revolution
When they say nothing
Coolest, funniest jokes
Impenetrable arguments
Shameful video
Impenetrable argument
Everything came before
or even further after
We have been ignored
But it really doesn't matter
When you say nothing
Now you're trying to be somebody

Diary of a Nobody

Violence on the streets
We don't want a war
Focus on the stress
It's not what is said
Nothing gets done
It's all in our heads
Don't be a seer
Be a listener
Don't create fear
It's not what you said
What have you done?
Nothing again
Ok
What I'm writing down on the page
are patterns all pre-arranged
The fabric of my reality
is the diary of a nobody
I will rest in peace
Shot down on the streets
We don't want a war
It's not what is said
Nothing gets done
It's all in our heads
Don't be a seer
Be a listener
Don't create fear
It's not what is said
Nothing gets done
It's all in our heads
Ok
What I'm writing down on the page
are patterns all pre-arranged
The fabric of my reality
is the diary of a nobody

Secret Freezer

I won't sign my life away
I found a secret freezer
Smokey don't feel so good
Checking in with Mitch and Deaner
Saying things I probably should not
Would you be ok with no place to stay?
You won't stay
