Scam

I'll pull one for you
if you pull one for me
I make the market black
and get what I need
To get a little back
underneath the table
carry what I can - destroy the rest
Purple numbers on a tape
match columns on a sheet
that keep things straight
that keep things nice and neat
Kern, rule, align
delete, decimal tab
nothing adds up - because you've been had

Breathe

Breathe a gulp of thin air, I'll tell you a trick
If you do it real quick, it won't cost you nothing
At least I do, the least I can do, at least I do, the least I can do
Eat a piece of food passed from hand-to-hand
and full of the hope that it won't get thrown back in your face
At least I do, the least I can do, at least I do, the least I can do
Breathe Eat Run Breathe
Run into the first safe place away from heavy blows
and who even knows, you might make it today
At least I do, the least I can do, at least I do, the least I can do
Breathe a gulp of thin air, I'll tell you a trick
Eat a piece of food passed from hand-to-hand
Run into the first safe place away from heavy blows
At least I do, the least I can do, at least I do, the least I can do

Mark 1:18

You demand a chunk of life
a block of time for working
I demand a receipt
instead I get nothing
Time, one, eighteen
Mark, mark, one, eighteen
Hoping for regular
solid bits to bank on
pick it up, do not miss
fill the space inside my fist
Time, two, o, nine, Mark

Take Out The Trash
02:40
|
|||
I'm under the gun to churn ideas out
sweating hard I write them down
then wad them up and throw them out
Your suggestions sound just like a mess
kick them 'round & they don't pass the test
ball it up and stick it with the rest
One weak theory makes it through
patched up here & there to give it clout
can this be what a good idea's about?

"I applied, got hired, worked a few months and quit. And now you want to know what I think..."
I wanna see you beg for pay
I wanna see how late you'll stay
I wanna see you do overtime
I wanna see that you don't mind
Do you want to know what that means to me? Do you want to?
I wanna see you wear a uniform
I wanna see you fill out a form
Do you want to? Do you want to? Do you?
And I wanna push you around
And I wanna ball you out
I wanna see you scrub the ground
And I wanna cut you down
Do you want to know what that means to me? Do you want to?
I want you to get me a coffee cup
I wanna see you bend & pick it up
Do you want to? Do you want to? Do you?

Mud pack, pour my pack on
Lip-stick, two lips to stick
Q-tip, don't place in ear
Band-aid, Bactine self-made wound
Click it, fan low temp high
Hair spray, point away from eye
Cold creme, smooth up spread down
Cover, up what might get out

Perpetual Scowl
02:33
|
|||
There's just two lives we lead
and they always bleed together
one's the way we are, when everyone's together
the happens right between,
cracking up and getting yourself together
But today you're broken. Today you're broken.
Where'd you get that perpetual scowl?
Three things to consider
when things bleed together
we're always getting older, and older is forever
two and three are live with hate
and there's always something better
But it's all fucked up. It's all fucked up.
Because you've got your perpetual scowl

Miss Endurance

We look like this
and you often stop and think about it
We think you miss
the point of all this hanging out stuff
And it doesn't work for me, and it doesn't work for you
I've said enough
when we're gone you'll figure it out
We'll stick to it
and when we out-last all the bullshit... then well know we're through
And it doesn't work for me, and it doesn't work for you

I Do Care
02:35
|

Hands up, in the air, don't come near me, 'cause I can do it
Pull the trigger, on this gun, end it now, I swear it's coming
It's a statement, it's a fact
and idea, it's just ideas
You've got yours, I've got mine
I don't care, I do care

Rut

I'm standing here, I run around
I've been waiting for so long. My door fell off
I nailed it shut, did I know that it was wrong?
I've counted everything two times or maybe more
I look down - my face falls onto the floor
I said scream real hard, next time I'm in a rut
I've told you what it's like, I've told you that I've had enough
It could be anytime at all except for the clock that's on the wall
if that ain't nothing then I'll quit
The message. The pattern. The radio. The news.
I'm looking really hard for something that I can use.
I said scream real hard, next time I'm in a rut
I've told you what it's like, I've told you that I've had enough
