That's Fucking Right

That's fucking right
watching my pint
step outside to have a smoke
I meet a homeless bloke
He asked me for a dime
But I wont give the time
But I got a big heart
so I give him advice
I say hey
fight your way out
crawl into the light
and find some peace in your life
I dont care if it's a husband or a wife
Goddamn politics
Run by fucking dicks
goddamn fucking tricks
and try to kidnap you
and collecting taxes
protect your registration fee
because your car spews ashes
its all a scam
none of it is real
none of it is real
we are brutes, apes with guns, bombs and missiles
War... war... war
Fan-fucking-tastic!
Fan-fucking-tastic!
Everybody move over to the left
Everybody move on upstairs
Everybody go out the back
Nobody no one cares
Fashion's a joke
Impulsive purchases on internet webpages
pages
Congressional debates
Law enforcement lies
blue line
Everyone dies
Protect your eyes
Protect your eyes
Protect your eyes
Comb your mustache
Cut your spilt ends
Scrub under your breasts
Clean your arm pits and your nutty bits
Wear a hat and sunscreen
Protect yourself from the planet
Because the planet is mean
fire! fire! fire! fire! fire! fire! fire! fire!
I love you yes I do
I love you yes I do
I love you yes I do
I love you yes I do
I love you yes I do
I love you yes I do
I love you

Don't

I fly plane ride from away, to where you are all hanging out
I rent car, hotel to stay, I sing dumb songs I shout, shout! shout!
Cat looks outside the window no doubt!
She stares at birds in the bamboo
Sometimes she meows
Take her to the vet, Vietnam vet
Afghan vet and why- eee-eye!!
Vietnam and why-ee-eye!!
Cat staring at the birds in the bamboo
I fly plane ride from away
To where you all hang out
I rent car, hotel to stay, I sing dumb songs I shout
Ayyy!
Cat looks at the birds today
Sing dumb songs I shout
I fly dumb planes no doubt
DON'T! DON'T! DON'T! DON'T!

Get away, something's changed
Not the same, something's changed
Get away
Run away
Something's changed
Not the same
Things are different gone and changed for the worst not the first time
and it's happening again!!!
Get away
Run away
Things have changed changed, not the same
Things are different now
it's the start of something new
It's not the first time but it's happening again
Look at something new, something new
Not the first time, it's happening again
hut 2 3 4
hut 2 3 4
hut 2
Not the same
Not the same
Something's changed
Not the same
Not the same

Security Cake
04:36

|
Bake security into the cake versus sprinkling it on afterwards
Bake it into the cake to prevent security from getting baked into you
Automatic sprinklers watering the garden
Winter squashes harden
You deserve a fast internet experience
But what you want and what you buy is not what you get
Throttled for your pleasure
There ain't no supernatural
Just people who believe in god and the devil
Get ready, here we go
History moves at light speed
Before you know
Before you know it every story ever told,
fiction ever sold, will be performatively played out
on your screens in real time as news of the world, as non fiction
Coffee table books with photographs of the rise and fall of democracy
The dictator will pick the winners this year, of the peoples choice awards
Take one for the team, we're all in this together
Take one for the team, we're all in this together
Before you know it every story ever told,
every fiction ever sold, will be performatively played out
on your screens in real time as news of the world
Non fiction fiction reality
Non fiction fiction reality
Non fiction fiction reality
Non fiction fiction reality

Knocking
04:44
|

|
I don't see why I should care at all
The rise of freedom is about to fall
World war three is knocking at my door
I don't see why I should care at all
The rise of freedom is about to fall
World war three is knocking at my door
The whole world wants my kind on the floor
Too many people are the OTHER
We have to fight
We have to stand up and fight
To defend our right
To exist and walk on the earth
Why do you hate me just for breathing?
I don't see why I should care at all
The rise of freedom is about to fall
World War three is knocking at my door
Follow the leader you are his whore
You are his whore
You are his whore
You are his whore
You are his whore
You are his whore

Bathtubs and swimming pools
Resting place for famous fools
You can't handle all the fame
But inside we're all the same
Just some prescription drugs
From sycophant thugs
Pretend to be your body guard
But all they want is your fame
Fall into the passages of time
Fall into the depths of your mind
It's so bizarre how stars
Go back to the womb
Warm water bathtub and swimming pools
are their tomb, their tomb, their tomb
their tomb
Bathtubs and swimming pools
their tomb
Fall into the passages of time
Fall into the depths of your mind
It's so bizarre you're a superstar
It makes no sense how stars go back to the womb
Warm water bathtub and swimming pools
Are their tomb
You broke into the big time
With your number one hit
It was the shit
That song that film that show was all the rage
All the rage
All the rage
All the rage
All the rage
Fall into the passages of time
Fall into the depths of your mind
Fall into the passages of time
Fall into the depths of your mind
It's so bizarre how stars
Go back to the womb
Warm water bathtub and swimming pools
Are their tomb
It's so bizarre how stars
Go back to the womb
Warm water bathtub and swimming pools
are their tomb
Just some prescription drugs
From sycophant thugs
Inside your blood
Get into the bath
Go swimming in the pool
Bathtubs and swimming pools
Resting place for celebrity fools
You can handle all the fame
But inside we're all the same

Have you seen my Mongoose?
Seems it got loose
Matchbox car
Have you seen my Mongoose?
Last time I saw it
it was in a box of baseball cards
Have you seen my Mongoose?
Have you seen my Mongoose?
Oh! It seems it got loose
Can't find it anywhere
My matchbox car
Is lost I swear!
Last time I saw it
Was in a box of baseball cards
Have you seen my Mongoose?
Have you seen my Mongoose?

Our Time Is Up

You better listen closely for what I have to tell you is a matter of life and death. You need to take heed and gather your gold...load up on guns and hold your breath. Come on now, grains and beans and rice would be a very good idea right now, stay down near the river where the water is clean because fascism is coming for you and me it's coming for - everybody. Hold on tight do not despair. Why? Cause the planet is about to die
Time to pick your poison, make you choice and reason figure out now what your plan is...will you live in a cave or in a van down by the river? …or will you join the masses or fascists or long lines of hated OTHERs, slaves What will your plan be, what will you do? When it all comes crashing down on you? Hold on tight do not despair, our time is up, the planet is about to die, the planet is about to die
