Graduation Day
Smudged funnies in a broken bottle
On the dot at nine
So Daddy throws clothes, throws on an old stove
I'm crying in the corner at five
Well I've seen black
And I've seen blue
But fine lines I don't see
And just because I am in misery
Don't it mean a thing
That I wanna know
That I wanna know
Graduation Day, Graduation Day
We take back everything we said about you
September, as far as she remembers
They don't teach humility
And just because her only signal is mayday
Don't it mean a thing
That she's seen love
And she's seen war
But fairness she don't see
And just because she is in misery
Don't it mean a thing
That she wants to know
That she wants to know
Graduation Day, Graduation Day
We take back everything we said about you
Graduation Day, Graduation Day
We take back everything we said to...
The camaraderie's old
Doing what I'm told
And everybody knows
This is getting out of hand
Everybody is dying for
The chance to be heard, not ignored
And everybody knows
This is getting out of hand
Graduation Day, Graduation Day
We take back everything we said about you
Graduation Day, Graduation Day
We take back everything we said to...
I'm not gonna
I'm not gonna
I ain't goin' to school
I'm not gonna
I'm not gonna
I'm not goin' to school
Laughing At You
Welcoming you to Cardboard City
Where I think they're laughing at your band
Did you have a clue
That it was pretty on the gritty bottom of a van?
I'm feeling sorry for your band
Like really sorry 'bout your band, oh
You don't gotta a clue
They're laughing at you
Laughing, yes it's true
You don't even see
They're laughing at you
Laughing at you to me
Your following is fleeting
Watch what you're reading
You might start believing what they're saying about
You and who you know
I'm talking shameless
In the thick of it
You can't get rid of it
Desperation is calling you
Desperation is calling you
You don't gotta a clue
They're laughing at you
Laughing, yes it's true
You don't even see
They're laughing at you
Laughing at you to me
You don't gotta a clue
They're laughing at you
At everything you do
You don't even see
They're laughing at you
Laughing at you to me
There are some things you gotta know
They will surround you when you fall
And they will steal your Heaven's toll, oh
You don't gotta a clue
They're laughing at you
Laughing yes it's true
You don't even see they're laughing at you
Laughing at you to me
You don't gotta a clue
They're laughing at you
At everything you do
You don't even see they're laughing at you
Laughing at you to me
I'm feeling sorry for you band
Like really sorry 'bout your band
I'm feeling sorry for your band
Like really sorry 'bout your band
Lying Through Your Teeth
Everybody knows you're a liar
Why don't I?
I just heard about
Your lovin' on the side
You're tellin' tall tales girl
Spinning webs too big to climb
Everybody knows you're a liar
Why don't I?
I always knew you were a...
I always knew you were a...
I always knew you were a fraud
You're, you're, you're
Lying through your teeth
You're not at all
Not at all what you seem
You're lying through your t-t-t-teeth
You're not at all
Not at all what you seem
Girl, your love's so cheap
We've been passing you around
There's cheating on your lips
And you've been the talk of my town
Fix your mask, girl
It's crooked on the sides
And everybody knows you're a liar
Why don't I?
I always knew you were a...
I always knew you were a...
I always knew you were a fraud
You're, you're, you're
Lying through your teeth
You're not at all
Not at all what you seem
You're lying through your t-t-t-teeth
You're not at all
Not at all what you seem
Everybody knows you are a liar
Why don't I?
I just heard about
Your lovin' on the side
Fix your mask girl
It's crooked in the side
Everybody knows you're a liar
Why don't I?
I always knew you were a...
I always knew you were a...
I always knew you were a fraud
You're, you're, you're
Lying through your teeth
You're not at all
Not at all what you seem
You're lying through your teeth
You're not at all
Not at all what you seem
You're lying through your teeth
You're not at all
Not at all what you seem
You're lying through your t-t-t-teeth
Nowhere Fast
I needed just a hit, one hit
It's a very little hit, I'm sure I won't like it
I needed to be heard, one hit would send me flying
I got away with murder last night in the parking lot
In cold blood, I have murdered parts of us that we forgot
I walked into a kiss, one kiss
From the very lovely miss who lives to fulfill my wish
I needed to be hurt, one kiss would send me flying
I got away with murder last night in the parking lot
In cold blood, I have murdered parts of us that we forgot
I will be going nowhere
I will be going nowhere
I will be going nowhere, nowhere fast
I will be going no
I will be going no
I will be going no
I will be going no
I will be going nowhere, nowhere fast
I had to write a hit, one hit
It's a very little hit, I'm sure you won't like it
I needed to be rehearse, one hit will send me flying
I got away with murder last night in the parking lot
In cold blood, I have murdered parts of us that we forgot
And in the end I grant you a farewell and final kiss
I got away with murder, who's the next to make the list
I will be going nowhere
I will be going nowhere
I will be going nowhere, nowhere fast
I will be going no
I will be going no
I will be going no
I will be going no
I will be going nowhere, nowhere fast
Scandalous
You ain't loved me right for a while
For your hand and word I'd crawl a mile
For all that I know
For all that I know
For all that I know
You're still scandalous
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
I just can't handle it
You ain't loved me right for a while
For all that I know
For all that I know
For all that I know
You're still scandalous
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
I just can't handle it
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
I just can't handle it
Grin and bear it
I will wear it
My crown of thorns
They better be pointed
They gotta be pointed
No mercy
No mercy
My crown of thorns
I gotta be hated
I gotta be hated
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
I just can't handle it
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
You're so scandalous
I just can't handle it
Curious
Speaking of heaven, she looked like a god on Earth
It was something I could not understand, or explain
I mean you
Don't know
The things I do for you while you are out cold
The things I do for you will lead to my breakdown
But I'm still curious, I'm curious
I'm still curious, yeah
My baby kisses like a heart attack
Running like that
Squeezing till my face turns black
She pulled me under, she pulled me under
Girl, I mean you
Gotta know
The things I do for you while you are out cold
The things I do for you will lead to my breakdown
And I'm still curious, I'm curious
I'm still curious, yeah
Breakdown, breakdown
My breakdown, breakdown, yeah
Curious, I'm curious
I'm still curious, yeah
'Cause I'm still curious
I'm curious, I'm still curious
God
I got a question
Let me ask you, can you
Explain your reasoning to me?
It ain't a matter of my hard luck or bad luck
When there is no luck in it for me
I'm not the type of man to hold a grudge against
Something I can hardly see
But to say that there's a reason for everything
Makes me doubtful and intrigued to say the least
God, you don't want to answer me
But if you do, you better agree
God, you've got the strangest sense of humor
You're too funny to be so heavenly
I've got your number and you owe me
Show me a little common decency
I kneel before you and you bless me, test me
And answer with a plague inside of me
I'm not the type of guy to plead with the sky above
Or with the demon under me
But to say that there's a reason for everything
Makes me doubtful and intrigued to say the least
God, you don't want to answer me
But if you do, you better agree
God, you've got the strangest sense of humor
God, you don't want to answer me
But if you do, you better agree
God, you've got the strangest sense of humor
You're too funny to be so heaven
You're too funny to be so heavenly
God, you don't want to answer me
But if you do, you better agree
God, you've got the strangest sense of humor
God, you don't want to answer me
But if you do, you better agree
God, you've got the strangest sense of humor
You're too funny to be so heaven
You're too funny to be so heavenly
Shot In The Back (The Platypus)
Now, I am just creative
Or was I meant to be
A killer
Killing lovers in the street?
Sometimes the most unlikely
Prove themselves to be a liar
Everything you said to me
I'm glad I'm alive and there's no way I'm touching ground again
I saw a blind man shackled
Up by his hands and feet
Escaping when his face hit the concrete
And the same way you play vicious
Well, that's the same way you agree
Endearing an endearing empathy
I'm glad I'm alive and there's no way I'm touching ground again
I'm glad I'm alive and there's no way I'm touching ground again
I've been shot in the back by my fears
Shot in the back by my fears
shot in the back by my fears
I've been shot in the back by my fears
I'm telling you, I'm glad I'm alive and there's no way I'm touching ground again
I'm telling you, I'm glad I'm alive and there's no way I'm touching ground again
Million Dollar Decision
You came and went
Too much time was spent
In the throes of a runaway holiday
But you came before me
Now you can't afford me
Oh, I can't believe I'm responsible
If you even care, let me know
I loved you so
But I was too proud to go
And now you're asking me
Asking me
Who made the million dollar decision?
I made it deep inside my heart
If you see a man with his head in his hands
That's the portrait of a runaway
There before you making your demands
You came before me
Now you can't afford me
Oh, I can't believe I'm responsible
If you even care, let me know
I loved you so
But I was too proud to go
Now you're asking me
Asking me
Who made the million dollar decision?
I made it deep inside my heart
Who made the million dollar decision?
I pay for it when we're apart
You're falling to your death
For giving what you get
You took the fall
You're falling to your death
And now you're asking me
You're asking me
You're falling to your death
For giving what you get
You took the fall
You're falling to your death
And now you're asking me
Asking me
Who made the million dollar decision?
I made it deep inside my heart
You tried to get the best of me
And killed the man who's next to me
I pay for it when we're apart
I made it deep inside my heart
I made it deep inside my heart
She's Not It
She's not it
She's really not it
She ain't it
She's really not it
You know I'm glad that she's not alive
She quit her job when she was 45
This kind of drama hits me everyday
She had a job, I got a salary
But you know me
I will do what I gotta do, in spite of you
By then you will be patiently dreaming of me in spite of you
Miserably
She's not it
She's really not it
She ain't it
She's really not it
I got a couple things I really need to say
One of them is funny and the other is passé
"Walk the plank!"
She had me swimming in the holding tank
Yeah, but you know me
I will do what I gotta do in spite of you
By then you will be patiently dreaming of me in spite of you
In misery
She's not it
She's really not it
She ain't it
She's really not it
'Cause I'm leaving
I'm leaving
And I just can't help these feelings
I'm still breathing
No more deceiving
And I just can't help these feelings
She's not it (No, she's not it)
She's really not it (No, she's not it)
She ain't it (No, she's not it)
She's really not it (No, she's not it)
She's not it (No, she's not it)
She's really not it (No, she's not it)
She ain't it (No, she's not it)
She's really not it (No, she's not it)
Egyptian Musk
There's a suicidal Taliban on the cusp
Egyptian musk, Egyptian musk
When the village came with fire, you were hiding on the right
We knew you might, the blood of Christ
I tell you lies, I have found
I've seen a million religions on the ground
There's a suicidal Taliban for talent on the cusp
Egyptian musk, Egyptian musk
Is that your love down on the ground?
I see forever coming down
Look around, look around
It makes everything okay
So celebrate the ignorance
And drizzle it in violence
And pledge a sore allegiance with every auto and appliance
Because they win if we don't go about life like we should
I knew you would, I knew you would
I tell you lies, I have found
I've seen a million religions on the ground
There's a suicidal Taliban with talent on the cusp
Egyptian musk, Egyptian musk
Is that your love down on the ground?
I see forever coming down
Look around, look around
It makes everything okay
Is that your love down on the ground?
I see forever coming down
Look around, look around
It makes everything okay
Where does your high school stand?
Lies, I've seen a few
I've seen a million, in a nation, in a feud
So if happiness is knowing, then knowledge I have not
We knew you'd pop, your head went pop
Is that your love down on the ground?
I see forever coming down
Look around, look around
It makes everything okay
Is that your love down on the ground?
I see forever coming down
Look around, look around
It makes everything okay
Cannibal Girl
She told me all the things she knew
You give her one, she'd reach for two
The Cold War on the sofa is getting closer
And she's the hardest thing to do,
When the mantis in her preys on you
An appetite fit for the king and his love
I don't want to bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl, you've been eating me alive
I don't want to bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl
So lately I've been meaning to say a few things to you
She gets all the good attention
And I get honored with the mention
And she's the hardest thing to do
When the mantis in her preys on you
An appetite fit for the kid you love
I don't want to bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl, you've been eating me alive
I don't want to bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl
That's what hearts are for
You give her one, she breaks more
It's the changing of the guard
And I'm the last one to know when
It's all just for show
And I'm trying to be so hard
I don't want to bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl, you've been eating me alive
I don't want to bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl, you've been eating me alive
I don't want to bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl, you've been eating me alive
I don't want to bore you, but here I go again
Cannibal girl
K HORSE
Answer me
Body, why do you ache me?
To keep ambition alive?
Relentlessly, it's you forsaking me
But you'll never eat me alive
You're never gonna see anything like me
You're never gonna see anything like me
Breathlessly, I ran from a seething sheik
Two rats at odds for the prize
Believe you me, the cancer of which you speak
Will never eat me alive
You're never gonna see anything like me
You're never gonna see anything like me
You're never gonna see anything like me
You're never gonna see anything like me
It's a thousand to one
It's two hands on one gun
Socialize, dollar prize
Yelling onward
Telling lies
Then you've got a thousand to one
You've seen a thousand to one
Well I've seen a fuck fest in the sun
Cause it's American surprise
Side of Islam
Side of lies
And you've got a thousand to one right here
You'll never reach me alive
You'll never eat me alive
You're never gonna see anything like me
You're never gonna see anything like me
You're never gonna see anything like me
You're never gonna see anything like me
It's been a crazy winter
It's gonna be a crazy summer
It's been a crazy winter
It's gonna be a crazy summer
Beating Hearts Baby (Chris Lord-Alge Remix)
