I'll Miss This Headache
02:21
|

The things I've lost are where they belong
I'll miss this headache after it's gone
The face my memory tried to redact is back
I brought my scissors, show me the bomb
I'm doing nothing till the sun comes up
If I do anything then you'll see something's up
I'll stop at nothing just to get a bite
I can't do anything except tell myself it's fine
I'll lie in this ditch all night
Ooh the tide was full of drips
Ooh it rose and sank my ships
Ooh I fell into a skip, can't find my chip now
I'm doing nothing till the sun comes up
If I do anything then you'll see something's up
I'll stop at nothing just to get a bite
I can't do anything except tell myself it's fine
I'll lie in this ditch all night

Future Plans
02:25
|

Don't wanna keep your body on ice
Well we'd be glad to take you until the next life
We don't wanna be like the CSC
So make sure you've got this covered on your policy
So would you like to? That's good
Yes that's good I knew you would
That's good I knew you would
Sweaty pen in hand
The best of luck in your Arcady terrifying future plans
Future plans
Future plans
You drew your last breath six minutes from death
Antifreeze pumps through your veins, dry ice on the bed
A nitrogen tube is where you will wait
So far below freezing in your glass transition state
And some magic day they'll create
Micro machines that can repair
Your trillion damaged cells
Once they've cured old age
And wanna help our ancient clientele with all their future plans
Future plans
Future plans
Ten thousand years of sun will radiate its cosmic decay
Your family don't wanna pay
Believe me, I've explained
It's much cheaper to just keep the brain
But we're bankrupt and the power's off and so are all your plans
Future plans
Future plans

Too Soon
02:39

Too soon to be making jokes
Please wait, we are too morose
I just can't believe he's really gone
Would you please stop making fun?
When will you oh when will you be done?
Too soon, wait a day at least
Stop interrupting the priest
And you seem genuinely dumbfounded
That your witticisms
Attracted so many criticisms
This is not cabaret
We are not entertained
Too soon, do do do do do
Too soon, do do do do do

Bye Bye Black Sheep
01:57
|
|||
This talk I give right into my eyes
In the dots of toothpaste and desilvering black
Adjust my name badge and tie
Put my hair into the shape of denial
Into the shape of denial
Used to think it was futile
The grimace welcomes me at my childhood door
The pat on the back and the no small talk
Bye bye black sheep
Same old anticlimax carving lines
On straw-filled camels' humps around my eyes
Bye bye black sheep, bye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Used to act juvenile
Turned my back went outside
Stood in line by myself
Paid my fines, loved the smell
It won't be like before
Let you down, disappoint
But maybe someday you'll help me off my knees
And maybe you'll even give me a seat
The grimace welcomes me at my childhood door
The pat on the back and the no small talk
Bye bye black sheep
Same old anticlimax carving lines
On straw-filled camels' humps around my eyes
Bye bye black sheep, bye

Boring Dreams
03:05
|

You have gathered an audience enthralled
About the things in your head the night before
Hard to take any more cause I have boring dreams
Everyone takes a turn, they're all the same
Standard imagery, weird and disarranged
Makes me wish I could change, I don't want boring dreams
You must find it strange
There's nothing in my dreams but the mundane
And I can't find a thing
Interesting to tell you about my dreams
Did you know that last night I dreamed of you
Just like Dorothy in this very room
Every day is a total redo of my dreams
Waking sleeping I can no longer tell
Doomed to live in this day recycling hell
Then I open my eyes and it was all a dream
You must find it strange
There's nothing in my dreams but the mundane
And I can't find a thing
Interesting to tell you about my dreams
Cause my dreams
Are boring
Boring
I just had the most boring dream last night
And I have the most boring dreams in life
Had the most boring dream cause I have boring dreams
I just had the most boring dream last night
And I have the most boring dreams in life
Had the most boring dream cause I have boring dreams
I just had the most boring dream last night
And I have the most boring dreams in life
Had the most boring dream cause I have boring dreams

Lt. Naughtyman

Lieutenant Naughtyman you've shot someone
Hand in your badge and gun
Go have a daiquiri go play some golf
Think about what you've done
Life is the lineup you buy your way onto
But what do you do after it's gone to
Pissed off with you cause you're caring too much
You think caring is sharing
For two cents you won't give a damn tinker's cuss
Need a day off swearing
Life is the lineup you buy your way onto
But what do you do after it's gone to
What to do
Hand in your badge and your gun
Think about what you have done
Pissed off you're caring too much
Giving a damn tinker's cuss
Swallow your tongue
Lieutenant Naughtyman you've shot someone
Hand in your badge and gun
Go have a daiquiri go play some golf
Think about what you've done
Life is the lineup you buy your way onto
But what do you do with it after

Advertiser's Dream
03:07
|
|||
Spoons full of sugar, no time to talk
Read all my news off a cardboard box
You say I am an advertiser's dream
Bibbed men can pull a truck on a chain
And so can I if I eat Nutri-Grain
You say I am an advertiser's dream
Keep crashing down from my sugar high
Suffocate sobbing, distorted eyes
I'm an advertiser's dream, oh yeah
Advertiser's dream, that is what I am
Have been since my life began
Advertiser's dream, for my whole lifespan
I've seen all the ads, I know all the brands
Fall for scams and I read all of my spam
All my spam
Gold arches reaching up in the sky
Dad just drives past, tells us we cry
"There's some new toy to nag for every week"
Mum's angry in the afternoon sun
I'm messing up the car, drips all down my front
I swear it's not my fault, it's the icecream
Eyelids blink tears like they've stepped in gum
It's serious, not just a tantrum
I'm an advertiser's dream, oh yeah
Advertiser's dream, that is what I am
Have been since my life began
Advertiser's dream, for my whole lifespan
I've seen all the ads, I know all the brands
Fall for scams and I read all of my spam
All my spam
Advertiser's dream, that is what I am
Have been since my life began
Advertiser's dream, that is what I am
Have been for my whole lifespan
Advertiser's dream, that is what I am
Have been since my life began
Advertiser's dream, for my whole lifespan
I've seen all the ads, I know all the brands
Fall for scams and I read all of my spam
All my spam

I Give Up
02:01
|

I give up acting like one of them, yeah
I give up blending into their world, I'm wasting my time
Takes so much to leave my bed when it's just a means to an end
Unless you've got some ideas, I give up
I give up trying to get into shape, yeah
I give up taking care of my health and seeing myself
It just takes up so much time, if I don't no one seems to mind
Unless you've got some ideas, I give up
Yeah, I give up
About to meet my new self for the first time
The old one's long since worn its welcome out
Cause I'm done playing bench in your ball game
Even though it's the only ball game in this town
I give up trying to be interesting, yeah
I give up taking interests in things that I don't like
All these paintings are just junk, everyone's a pretentious drunk
Unless you've got some ideas, I give up
Yeah, I give up
I give up
I give up
I give up

I wanna go out but all of my friends are dead
Or they may as well be
I'm so down, got crumbs all over my bed
And this room's not roomy
Somebody's sleeping, someone's out
A fridge is beeping in my mouth
I crawl inside a beer on the couch
But I would walk out that door
If I could go round to yours
Cause maybe if you are bored
Then we can both be bored together, yeah
Then we can both be bored together, yeah
Then we can both be bored together, yeah
Both be bored together, yeah
Forgot to turn on a light
But I won't call it a night
I wanna get out the house
Do something cool, something grouse
and I would walk out that door
If I could go round to yours
Cause maybe if you are bored
Then we can both be bored together, yeah
Then we can both be bored together, yeah
Then we can both be bored together, yeah
