LYRICS

Dang cricket

Rabbit spinach

I’ve been stuck in the land of digits

I'm really five foot ten please try to believe me

Poor wording

Out of courage

No luck with the playful verbiage

Used all but ten percent of possible meanings

You really ought to know by now

That you get what you give

And if you don’t commit

You’ll be desperate just to fit in

They don’t practice

Then they wonder why they suck

Patient? Always been

Now don’t get outta touch

I should have told them that I know better

but now I'll show ‘em that I’m know no quitter

I sit my house sucking smoke through my mouth

Glued to my couch trying not to go psychotic

I got cable to learn another angle

But I’m unable to get the hell out of my own head

It’s been about 15 years since I’ve changed my mind about any opinion

Clutching to all the same fears that live the tissue of my protoplasm

Talking heads

“Fuck the feds”

So well read

I’m impressed

How did you acquire all this undue confidence

By babbling about current events

And begging people “smash that like?”

Who that

Do that

Make improvements

Work the lane

Til worth consuming

Done

Bear that

Wear that

Slanging pain

Art like daggers, ball ‘n chain

Done

You’re never honest

Telling folks what they’ve missed

And now they’re all pissed

Trying not to be neurotic

Got no precision to leverage your ambition

Say you’ve got vision

Well, why are you always so God damn wrong?

It’s been about 15 years since I’ve changed my mind about any opinion

Clutching to all the same fears that live the tissue of my protoplasm

You offer nothing but you want it all

You need the adequate to cover for your shortfalls

Propitiating to your own cabal

Pitiful tantrums to show them you’re not small

Dying

In a dream

I should have fooled myself with self esteem

I wanna be oozing health

like sub machine

Instead, I’m chomping on rockets and sucking cream
