Waste My Time

Maybe it’s time
to make a living
Maybe it’s time
to take school more seriously
I am a master procrastinator
Maybe it’s time to break free
No more time to waste my time
Who would’ve thought
That I would come to my senses
Who would’ve thought
that I would turn into you
I think it’s time
to get my hands dirty
I think it’s time
to take life more seriously
I first had to turn
over thirty
something made me be
who I need to be
Have you found
what you’ve been looking for
You know I cried
when you went through that door
Let go
Oh

Fur And Sharp Teeth
03:00
|

Way back, back in the days
when we were young and used to play all day
none of us would care about what anyone would say
only good times we let roll
fun and games and more
when suddenly a man came ‘round
with something for us in store
oooh lalala
Fur and sharp teeth
tududum tuu tudududub tuu
(Ooh lalala)
one thing I’ll admit
first I gave in a little bit
Stories ‘bout a Kingdom Come
promised we’d all fit
But then he showed us his true face
short minded ideas and sick ways
He gave us fur and sharp teeth
tududum tuu tudududub tuu

Flesh From Bone
02:31
|

ancient carvings
seem too perfect
i hear hollow mountains
are filled with laser beams
from a rooftop
scream for more
sacrifice
flesh from bone
but can you dance
can you make us move
cast a spell
give us magic proof
you know what it means
and so do we
you’re like word machine
make it sing to me
all the symbols and signs
if you know where to find
we’re moving right behind

recreational gadgetry
a kayak or a raft maybe
to ponder on whatever
to paddle down a stream up in wherever
stuff that i can play with
a puddle to dive in
to get my shit together
so i can see clear and make it better
look for my goggles
i sank to the bottom
i guess i'm chasing my tail
while i get washed away
toys and junk get tangled in
take us for a wild spin
slap our brains around
better do it fast before we drown
get in a crazy ride
see us flying high
not ever coming down
no not ever ever coming down
got sucked down a flow
oh how i should ‘ve known
that this could happen to me
this world is oxygen free

Stagger
03:13
|
|||
Think like a horse
run my wagon off course
lessons in how to maintain
this rusty dry brain
give back my bones
cause they rattle like stones
in a dusty old bag
got a real silly stagger
and i can’t stand
the sound of my own body
won’t you please scream at me
freak out for me honey
feel these lumps in my neck
they tend to keep coming back
scared shitless piss my pants
brain tumor heart attack
there must be something in the water
can’t believe i’m growing older
wear my head inside a bag
still got that real silly stagger
it’s in my bones
Yeah

Fly High
02:49
|

You need to bend the rules
once in a while
because the grass seems greener
on the other side
but the milk turns sour
and the flowers die
And you’ll keep crawling up the hill
with nowhere to hide
You know the stars shine brighter
when there is no light
Dams are built
and rivers run dry
I know you hurt a lot
but you still get by
You know you have to fly low
before you get to fly high
You know you have to fly low
before you get to fly high
You know you have to fly low
before you get to fly high
Just when you think you’re out
they’re gonna pull you back in
No clue where it ends
you don’t know where to begin
You know the way to hell
and what it’s paved with
People giving advice
trying to chip in
Because they think they can help
because of where they’ve been
And it’s all in vain
you still die within
But don’t stand on the edge
just run and jump in
They might have made you a sweater
but the thread’s wearing thin

Chunks On Our Shoes
03:29
|
|||
It’s dipso time
Aim for the clouds
It’s funny how
We’re not so clever now
And later on
We’ll spew chunks
On our shoes
Because the drugs they saved our lives
Oh
Yeah the drugs they saved our lives
By the time
We’ll be sober
Another can is cracked
It’s never over
And later on
We’ll yell things
And spit on the floor
And how the drugs they saved our lives
Oh
Yeah the drugs they saved our lives

You Were Out
03:14
|

I lost my job
you were out sailing
I count the days
you were gone sailing
Take your time
you’ll be mine
Now you’re still gone
and i am here waiting
got things to do
i’m not complaining
and I can still get high
I’ll wait, if you’ll be mine
Take your time
You’ll be mine
Ooh you were out sailing
Give it another try

Sober
03:11
|

Hmm Hmm
Head in the dirt it’s
Feet in the sky
a giant turtle
is eating me alive
is this a nightmare?
But it’s daytime
Chocolate potatoes
With pink slime
We’re in a forest
Trees are walking along
Birds are breathing heavy
A black metal song
Can you think straight?
we need spaghetti and chong
it’s gonna help us
or am i wrong?
Trying to stay sober
Maybe today
Hmm Hmm
you can read those books
backwards and upside down
all from different planets
but our skins are brown
i am a smiley face
with a neon frown
and you’ll be wearing
yoghurt for a crown
Back in the dirt
trying to stay dry
growing gills now
so we’ll be allright
if we ever figure out
how we’re still alive
if I jump up
it’ll feel like a dive
