You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire
Dead Bull with a life on the low
I'll be massive conquistador
Gimme soul or show me the door
Metal heavy soft at the core
Gimme toro gimme some more
Space Flunky Four on the floor
Fortified with the liquor store
This one's down, gimme some more
Gimme toro, gimme some more
Shrunken head I love to adore
"B" movie gimme some more gore
Gimme toro gimme some more
"B" movie gimme some more gore
Gimme toro, gimme some more
Gimme toro, gimme some more
Gimme toro, gimme some more
Gimme toro, gimme some more
No One Knows
We get some rules to follow
That and this, these and those
No one knows
We get these pills to swallow
How they stick in your throat
Taste like gold
Oh what you do to me
No one knows
I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool am I
I journey through the desert
Of the mind with no hope
I follow
I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboat in the sun
And come undone
Pleasantly caving in
I come undone
Heaven smiles above me
What a gift here below
But no one knows
The Gift you give to me
No one knows
First It Giveth
I’m in you, you’re in me
I can’t tell
You’re so cruel, more than me
It is true
Loyal to only you, up your sleeve
I want some (of all of you) trickin me
First it giveth, then it taketh away
I would beg, I would plead
I would shake
On a hook dangling wide awake
I’m so young and beautiful
I’m no fool
Time goes by, tables turn, all I know
First it giveth, then it taketh away
Song For The Dead
It’s late enough to go drivin
See what’s mine
Life’s the study of dying
How to do it right
If you’re a holly rolller
If you’re bent in the loose
If you’re hangin around
I’m holdin the noose
Come a little bit closer
And get untied
In the hearse rollin over
Just a track in the line
Fuck it
Come on let’s go drivin
Come on let’s take a little ride
Life’s the study of dyin
How to do it right
The Sky is Fallin’
The Sky is fallin, human race that we are
Has left me crawlin, staring straight at the sun
All in a moment, I notice
Every dog has his day
I paid attention cost me so much to hate
For so long I saw only wrong
But now to remind it’s a waste of time.
Close your eyes and see the sky is fallin.
I wanted something, nothin, blank, I don’t know
It’s hard deflecting, stones are easy to throw
All in a moment I noticed
Hours days left behind
One wasted, useless, selfless
None of a kind
For so long I saw only wrong
Now to remind not to go back
To the low that has drained
My life so long
Close your eyes and see the sky is fallin.
Six Shooter
Two glass eyes
I’ll fuckin tell you lies
I’m on the side of the road
You’re all gonna fuckin die
Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, pow!
Pow-pow
Fuck this world
Fuck you too
I’ll fuckin kill your best friend
Do what the fuck you gonna do
Here I come
Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
Pow-pow
Hangin Tree
Would you like a way home?
I bleed my own
Round the hangin tree
Swaying in the breeze
In the summer sun
As we two are one
Swaying
Can you see under my thumb?
There you are
Go with Flow
She said "I'll throw myself away"
"They're just photos after all"
I can't make you hang around
I can't wash you off my skin
Outside the frame is what we're leavin' out
You won't remember
Anyway-
I can go with the flow
But don't say it doesn't matter anymore
I can go with the flow
You believe it in your head?
It's so safe to play along
Little soldiers in a row
Fallin' in and out of love
Something sweet to throw away
But I want something good to die for
To make it beautiful to live
I want a new mistake
Loose is more than hesitate
You believe it in your head
I can go with the flow
But don't say it doesn't matter anymore
I can go with the flow
You believe it in your head?
Gonna Leave You
Wait by the phone
Late all alone
He can’t help you, but I know I could
3 years to long
you know this is wrong
"everything" scars the skin
Push it in, break it off
I’m gonna leave you
I gave it a start
I stomped on your heart
This is the end
No more pictures
We ain’t friends
It’s raining in my room
There’s blood in my spoon
You’re out of my high chair
I’m out of your womb
I’m gonna leave you
Do It Again
I fall over, oh I want you
I get in, you’re only one I’m in too
You and me fit so tight
I go lower living easy
I don’t know how long I got till it’s over
You and me fit so tight
Can you do it again?
All the way there no where left we can be
I’m into watcha do but I lead you nowhere
You and me fit so tight
All we need is one more time
Can you do it again?
Only get to live one life
Won’t pretend you’re only mine
Where will you go when
We all fall away?
So do it again
God is in the Radio
I thought I saw him on the video
A trance was keeping him under
I know that god is in the radio
Checking the station
The narcotic from me to you
Just a caught in the medium
I know you hear it, I do too
It’s everywhere that I go
You come back another day
And you do no wrong
Come back another day
And do no wrong
They say the devil is paranoid
Always trying to cover
But god was leaking through the stereo
Between the station to station
You believe it I know you do
You wont admit or say so
I know that god is in the radio
Just repeating the slogan
You come back another day
And you do no wrong
Come back another day
And do no wrong
Another Love Song
You’re so impossible
Scream and moan, chills my soul
Don’t want to hear you got left behind
All the times you stayed up and cried
It’s no lie, you did it to yourself
Like chewed up gum under my shelf
Don’t look surprised,
You must have known all along
It’s just another love song
It’s never easy, it’s not hard
When you’ve lost your mind
With you it’s sleazy,
Don’t tell me your worries
I’m sick, I’ll leave you blind
Now the time has come, to leave this love
That’s left you dry
No need to work it out,
Cause you know there’s no reason why
It’s just another love song
I never told you it would last forever
You can’t hold this boy for long, dear
By the time you read my letter
Baby I’ll be gone
Your just another love song
Song for the Deaf
Nobody's comin' down the hall
Nobody echoes in my head
Broken reflection outta luck
Nobody ever needed it
I got what was
I want to take what's left
I'm ready now
Beautiful. Senses are gone
Canary in a gilded cage
Singing…
Sweet soft and low
I will poison you all
Come closer racing to your tongue
I got what was, I want to take what's left
No talk will cure, what's lost or
Save what's left, for the Deaf
The blind can go get fucked
Lie beside the ditch
This halo round my neck
Has torn out every stitch
Who are you hidin'? Is it safe for the deaf?
Beautiful, cancer, infiltrate, and forget
I saw you comin' I heard not a thing
A mistake not listen when I knew
Where you'd been
I got what was, I want to take what's left
No talk will cure, what's lost or
Save what's left, for the Deaf
Mosquito Song
I know I know the sun is hot
Mosquitoes come and suck your blood
Leave you there all alone
Just skin and bone
When you walk among the trees
Listening to the leaves
The further I go the less I know, the less I know
Where will you run?
Where will you hide?
Lullaby's to paralyze
Fat and soft, Pink and weak
Foot and thigh, tongue in cheek
You know I'm told they'll swallow you whole,
Skin and bone
Cutting boards, hanging hooks
Bloody knives, cooking books
Promising you won't feel a thing at all
Swallow and chew, eat you alive
All of us food, that hasn’t died
Simmering, pick and pluck
Tenderize, bone to dust
The sweetest grease
The finest meat you'll never taste
So you scream, whine and yell
The supple sounds of dinner bell
We all will feed the worms and trees so don't be shy
Swallow and chew, eat you alive
All of us food, that hasn’t died

Feel Good Hit of the Summer
Nicotine, valium, vicadin, marijuana, ecstasy, and alcohol
The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret
I've got a secret, I cannot say
Blame all the movement to give it away
You've got somethin, I understand
Holding it tightly, caught on command
Leap of faith, do you doubt?
Cut you in, I just cut you out
[chorus:]
Whatever you do
Don't tell anyone
Whatever you do
Don't tell anyone
Look for reflections, in your face
Canine devotion, time can't erase
Out on the corner, locked in your room
I never believe them and I never assume
Still can't believe there is a lie
Promises promise, an eye for an eye
We've got something to reveal
No one can know how we feel
[repeat chorus 2x]
I think you already know
How far I'd go not to say
You know the art is gone
And I'm taking this all to the grave
[repeat chorus]
Leg of Lamb
You're a head case with a smile
Can't stop to make up your mind
Education is so lame (so lame)
When you bitch and you moan
You're a loose girl, I'm a guy (hey)
You're a truth freak with a lie
The situation is so strange
It's a tv show
In a hotel on the phone
You're gonna leave me, I should've known (should've known)
And I was thinkin, it's so sad
I didn't want you to go
Don't wanna follow the laws of man
Bloody apron, leg of lamb
It's so hard to win
When there's so much to lose
Infiltrate the walls that are caving in
It ain't a bad thing
This ain't reality
Infiltrate the walls that are caving in
It ain't a bad thing
Because it is natural
Second Avenue, raising Cain
I'm a sinner, ring my bell (hey)
I'll tell you what, I get up
If I knew I fell
Auto Pilot
Silent hell on the marble slab
The best trip that I've ever had
Higher than a jet plane, pass it around
My drinks on empty, need another round
[chorus:]
I wanna fly, wanna ride with you
Is this the best that you can do?
I wanna fly, wanna ride with you
Higher than a jet plane with you
Will we arrive in the middle of nowhere
Don't act like you know, I been here so many times
I never seen you before
But now that I have, I don't wanna see you no more
Higher than a jet plane with you
Higher than a jet plane with you
[repeat chorus]
Ah-ah, auto pilot no control
Ah-ah, ahh
Ah-ah, auto pilot no control
Ah-ah, ahh
Higher than a jet plane with you
Higher than a jet plane with you
[repeat chorus]
Better Living Through Chemistry
The blue pill opens your eyes
Is there a better way
A new religion prescribed
To those without the faith
The hero holding a knife
And blood is not enough
Is it too late to go back?
Is it too late to go?
There's no one here
And people everywhere, you're on your own
Let's see if I'm hearing this right
Is it just I should take
And never endings are glad
To carry out the dead
Your idols burn in the fire
The mob comes crawling out (take us down and out)
I'm reclaiming their minds
Destroying everyone
There's no one here
And people everywhere, you're all alone
Monsters in the Parasol
The walls are closing in again, oh well
The walls are closing in again, oh well
I seen some thing I thought I never saw
Covered in hair
Paul's dad is warped and bubbling, oh well
Paul's dad is warped and bubbling, oh well
And my mind is out here on another wave
Covered in hair
She won't grow
[chorus:]
You've got a monster (distress) in your parasol (body out??)
You've got a monster (dwarves, doors?) in your parasol (of course)
You've got a monster (displeasure) in your parasol (I told you??)
You've got a monster (?) in your parasol (xnay?)
Paul's sister is an alien, oh well
Paul's sister is an alien, oh well
I seen some things I thought I never saw
Covered in hair
She won't grow
You've got a monster (distress, my pest?) in your parasol
You've got a monster (drawves) in your parasol (war horse)
You've got a monster (displeasure) in your parasol (?)
You've got a hole in you I never saw (??)
In your parasol, in your parasol
Quick and to the Pointless
[spoken:]
I don't even know what I'm doing here
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
A little girl can never freeze
Off a ? you gotta be with me
Well I know, you know
Everybody everyone let's go
Oh, baby, baby, you're so sweet
Ah, ah, wooo
Living is hard, ?
I'm so old, you're so young
I know, you know
Everybody everyone let's go
Oh, baby, baby, you're so sweet
Goddamn, ah, ah, whoa
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
?
Little girl, it's what I saw
You know, I know
Everybody everyone let's go
Oh, baby, baby, you're so sweet
Whoooo
Ah, baby, baby, you're so sweet
Goddamn, ah, ah, whoa!
In the Fade
Cracks in the ceiling, crooked pictures in the heart
Countin and breathin, I'm leaving here tomorrow
Way down low, I never do you any good
Laughin is easy, I would if I could
[chorus:]
Ain't gonna run
Just live till you die, wanna drown
With nowhere to fall into the arms of someone
There's nothing to save I know
You live till you die
[chorus:]
Live till you die, I know
Loosing feelin, but I couldn't get the way ??
Countin and breathin, disappearin in the fade
Lay down low, I never do you any good
Stoppin and stayin, I would if I could
[chorus:]
Ain't gonna run
Just live till you die, wanna drown
With nowhere to fall into the arms of someone
There's nothing to save I know
You live till you die
[repeat chorus]
Tension Head
Everyday I wake up feeling this way
I take it downtown with all the action going down
Stike your match, strike your match, cook it up
[chorus:]
(My life) I'm feeling so sick
(Your life) I feel so fucking sick (My life)
(Your life) On the bathroom floor
Try to get out and get right
Hustling little girls
Machine little boys
Yeah
Gotta get out, gotta get out and get right
Gotta get out, I gotta get out no more
No more, no more
(My life) I'm feeling so sick
(Your life) I'm feeling so sick
On the bathroom floor (My life)
I'm feeling so sick (Your life)
No more
Yeah!
(High life, low life, high life, low life, high life, low life)
(My life) I'm feeling so sick
(Your life) I feel so sick no more
I Think I Lost My Headache
You know why
They called and just let it ring
No reply
The door is open I swear
Ain't no use in pickin up
You know why
[chorus:]
It's all my head I know
So they tell me so
Until my head explodes
Into my head it goes
Tastes so good
Oh, but I knew it would
Tastes so good
Burn like a match house
Medicate just to make you soft
Love is blind
Catchin the rest me
What the hell were they thinking of
You know why
[repeat chorus]
