It's the Tour De France every day of the week
For the Lycra fuckwit squad
Holding up the traffic as they ride in tandem
An imagined crowd applauds
Brighton's full of arseholes
Brighton's one big headache
Brighton's full of arseholes
Beside the sea
Park the Toorak tractor at St. Dickhead's Grammar
In the middle of the road
Overprice the sandwich, due for a kidnapping
Trustafarian B.O.
Brighton's full of arseholes
Brighton's one big headache
Brighton's full of arseholes
Beside the sea
And they're all that I can see
And they won't accept the likes of me
Brighton's full of arseholes
Brighton's one big headache
Brighton's full of arseholes
Beside the sea
And they're all that I can see

Summer Of Disease
02:35
|
|||
I'm so unsteady when I stand
I'm wilting like an indoor plant
I might die
Bin full of tissues, nostrils raw
Won't make it through the bathroom door
I might die
It's the summer of disease
Sun's burning, I still freeze
I cough, I sneeze
It's the summer of disease
There's germs in every breeze
I cough, I wheeze
Outside has never looked so fine
My temperature's still 39
All the time
My bony fingers fight the light
That floods the water in my eyes
Don't touch those blinds
It's the summer of disease
Sun's burning, I still freeze
I cough, I sneeze
It's the summer of disease
There's germs in every breeze
I cough, I wheeze
I sneeze, ah choo, bless you
Summer of disease
Ah choo, bless you
Summer of disease
It's the summer of disease
Sun's burning, I still freeze
I cough, I sneeze
It's the summer of disease
There's germs in every breeze
I cough, I wheeze

The Answer Is No
03:26
|
|||
Been thinking over everything for such a long long time
I dedicate myself to find some meaning in this life
I've searched and I've researched, I've interviewed people
I've been everywhere on earth
I speak every language, I've had seven marriages
I'm getting so close now
Empty expanses, a monochrome plateau
Crossed all the fences to where we shouldn't go
I've seen the pattern in everyone I know
I've found the answer, and the answer is no
Now I hold my torch and limp along an endless trail
Following the drops of rain that lead me to the grail
The clouds start to come in, I wanna start running
I don't wanna wake up here
Sucked into a black hole wherever the wind blows me
I'm getting so close now
Empty expanses, a monochrome plateau
Crossed all the fences to where we shouldn't go
I've seen the pattern in everyone I know
I've found the answer, and the answer is no
The answer is no
The answer is no
The answer is nooooooooo
So seeing you're here, I suggest you lean nearer
Cause I've got something to show
I'll tell you a secret, don't ever repeat it
Cause nobody wants to know
Empty expanses, a monochrome plateau
Crossed all the fences to where we shouldn't go
I've seen the pattern in everyone I know
I've found the answer, and the answer is no

Uh-Oh (No)
03:08
|

Does the dog in fact own the man
Does the head in truth pat the hand
Does your service meet my demand
I wonder when I turned into Ayn Rand
Am I gaining more than I lose
Can I even tell who's gain's whose
So expensive, yet feel so cheap
Do a better job of being skin deep
Uh-oh
Uh-Uh-oh
Uh-Uh-oh
No
What if I'm a massive sellout
What if all of my teeth fell out
The prices that I have to shell out
Just to keep my arm candy spellbound
What about your indie values
Fuck em, may they not corral you
Is it good for my self-esteem
To eat her refuse and call it ice cream
Uh-oh
Uh-Uh-oh
Uh-Uh-oh
No
Stepping over my dead body
Dry-eyed with a stick you'll prod me
Assessed assets, caressed casket
Cassette-taped carcass, questions to ask it
Uh-oh
Uh-Uh-oh
Uh-Uh-oh
No

Leisure Suit Larry II
03:40
|
|||
I went on a game show and I won a million bucks
She didn't come with me on our cruise, oh just my luck
I stole a lifeboat, drifted for weeks
I washed up on a beach of nudists
And the mob was after me
I'm going bald, I need a soulmate
I'm not what I was, and I was never that great
I don't wanna be too late
I'm like canned fish reduced to clear
No charisma, just drear
I'm on a quest to find true love
I dressed up as a chick to escape, I hid my suit
I threw away the bomb and I left by parachute
Crawled under bees and fed the snakes wood
Swung over piranhas
And met my topless babe in a lagoon
I'm going bald, I need a soulmate
I'm not what I was, and I was never that great
I don't wanna be too late
I'm like canned fish reduced to clear
No charisma, just drear
I'm on a quest to find true love
The locals told me what to do
I climbed the ice volcano
And gave the bad guy death by piano
I'm going bald, I need a soulmate
I'm not what I was, and I was never that great
I don't wanna be too late
I'm like canned fish reduced to clear
No charisma, just drear
I'm on a quest to find true love
(Don't give up, no, don't give up just yet)
I'm going bald, I need a soulmate
I'm not what I was, and I was never that great
I don't wanna be too late
I'm like canned fish reduced to clear
No charisma, just drear
I'm on a quest to find true love

The System Works
02:18
|
|||
Now all these rules have given you a beating
It is time you were schooled in the miracle of cheating
Because everybody knows the system works
If you rort it, if you rort it
And you'll get all the fringe benefits and perks
Exploit it, exploit it
Don't stand in line unless there's a conveyor belt
Stuffing down the last slice, we're helping those who help themselves
Because everybody knows the system works
If you rort it, if you rort it
And you'll get all the fringe benefits and perks
Exploit it, exploit it
Kill your little qualms
Everyone does it
Grease those itchy palms
And that tick that box
And stuff those pockets now
You don't know what it's like
Everybody knows the system works
If you rort it, if you rort it
And you'll get all the fringe benefits and perks
Exploit it, exploit it
Everybody knows the system works
If you rort it, if you rort it
And you'll get all the fringe benefits and perks
Exploit it, exploit it
The system works

I don't understand anything anymore
I don't understand anything anymore
Don't look at me, I won't look at you
Let's look at our shoes, I tell you
I don't understand anymore
I don't understand anymore
I don't understand anything anymore
You said I don't know you at all, what you're like
You said I should go overseas for a while
Get some perspective on your own
Far away from home, I tell you
I don't understand anymore
I don't understand anymore
I don't understand anything anymore
And you can write me out forever
(Just do what you want)
Won't have to be my friend at all
I don't understand anything anymore
I don't understand anything anymore
I don't understand anymore
I don't understand anymore
I don't understand anything anymore
And you can write me out forever
(Just do what you want)
Won't have to be my friend at all
I don't understand anymore
I don't understand anymore
I don't understand anything anymore
I don't understand anything anymore
I don't understand anything anymore

I breathe in and make that followup call
I try to talk while wearing a smile
They weren't expecting me at all
But they assured me we're on the pile
What I'm selling I couldn't pay someone to take
Make a note to self, try and be less shit, okay
Never give up unless you're shit
Never give up unless you're shit
Never give up unless you're shit
Never give up unless you're shit
Some kids at RMIT have a TV show
Maybe we could play, you never know
Make a note to self, try and be less shit, okay
Never give up unless you're shit
Never give up unless you're shit
Never give up unless you're shit
Never give up unless you're shit

No Place To Go But Down
02:42
|

Well I guess I showed them
Who would have guessed how well I've done
Reunion, here I come
Proving nothing to prove
But now the shit has hit the fan
Here comes the repo man
With just a shitty tracksuit for my crown
Her suitcase wheels are following her lipstick's frown
No place to go but down
No place to go but down
At least I always bounce
Woke up in a sandtrap
Got 14 days to find a room
Was bound to happen soon
Membership suspended
They outed me on live TV
Been mass unfriended
And even though they say that soon I'll be on trial
Well jail's a happy place with the right frame of mind
I YouTube "tie a noose" it shows me how
Downstairs the garden hedge is looking brown
No place to go but down
No place to go but down
At least I always bounce
