Happy Suicide
01:55
|
|||
Took those pills
Hoped that they would kill
Crashed my car
On the day the earth stood still
Now I'm dead inside
Come back to me, my suicide
Left my song unsung
Punched a hole inside my lung
Jumped off a bridge
On the day my heart got stung
Now I'm sore inside
Come back to me, my suicide
Happy Suicide
Happy Suicide
Shot my gun
Hoped my life was done
Set myself on fire
There in front of everyone
Now I burn on the inside
Come back to me, my suicide
Happy Suicide
Happy Suicide
Slit my wrists

Machine Boy
02:14
|
|||
The tubes attached to his body
Give him unlimited power
Don't even think to attack him
He lust gets stronger by the hour
Machine boy, Machine boy, Machine boy
and the Machine boy saves the world
They say his new chair's amazing
With it he flies through the air
And when the asteroids are falling
Nobody's worried, they don't care because
Machine boy, Machine boy, Machine boy
and the Machine boy saves the world
He wears those coke bottle glasses
They say he sees into the past
And if you want to know your future
All you have to do is ask the
Machine boy, Machine boy, Machine boy
and the Machine boy saves the world
When the plague is upon you
And evil gnomes burn Your soul
You wonder who will come to save you
You've fallen deep into a hole,
Machine boy, Machine boy, Machine boy
and the Machine boy saves the world

My little mutant you are so distant
you see the world through x ray vision
and you think your on a mission to fight crime
but I know your mine
I had a strange dream you shot your laser beam
you saved the world from my arch villain
but after all the killin’ your still mine
til the end of time
Oh baby please don’t go
your my superhero
don’t leave me down below
your my superhero
Oh baby please don’t go
don’t go.
Out on your spaceship you flew your final trip
you last your way out past the milky way
and when you radioed to tell me please don’t cry
cause we’ll never die

I know you think that someday I'll let you go
I think I know that one day my love you'll know
But all your bleeding lips can do is leave me cold
I want more, gimme more, so much more
Duct tape love
Greatest invention of mankind
Duct tape love
It's the only way to make you mine
I know you think that someday you will be saved
I think I know that one day my heart will break
But since I tied you up, you're all I'm living for
I want more, there's gotta be more, so much more
Duct tape love
Greatest invention of mankind
Duct tape love
It's the only way to make you mine
I know you think that someday I'll care for you
I think I know that one day we will be through
But I'm not done with this until I bury you
I want more, gimme more, so much more
Duct tape love
Greatest invention of mankind
Duct tape love
It's the only way to make you mine
Bury you
Bury me

so you better notify your next of kin
when you see me comin you'd be wise to step aside
otherwise you're contemplatin' certain suicide
if you don't believe me you can ask the widow'd wives
of the wimpy pimply punters who bargained with their lives
I'm a nuclear reaction Yeah I'll put your ass in traction

then a fist to cuff impaction leads to multi-tooth extraction
from the hammer that’s me fist

We Did Not Do That
02:30
|
|||
We did not do it! We did not do it!
Oh Yeah we are dumb and fat
but we did not do that!
We did not do it! We did not do it!
We are ready for enemy attack
but we did not do that!
We live in Disneyland.
We buy the leading brands.
When we wanna be fit and clean
we drink more gasoline.
We’re kids in a candy store.
We did not even start that war.
When you in a video game
You cannot be named.
We did not do that
We did not do that No No No

Zombieland
02:46
|
|||
My mutant hero got lost in the stars
left me surrounded by aliens from Mars
with science fiction faces and salesman smiles.
I been lost drivin’ down highway 1 for awhile.
Step by step, crawl by crawl,
dead men walk, young men fall.
Dreams are sold, souls bottled and scanned.
Scream by scream, crime by crime,
I swear this movies gotta end sometime.
Crossin’ my heart with a cold dead hand, hopin’ to die in Zombieland.
Cellular families and internet friends,
speaking in tongues but nothing is said.
Moving in circles of loyalty and scorn,
undead since the day they were born.
With Jack O Pop Piper they dance on the moon,
countin’ up gold like Mr. Scrooge.
When crackin’ skulls and breakin’ knees there’s no time to pray.
so c’mon get unhappy on judgement day.

Better Than You
01:40
|
|||
Better than you we’re better than you
Don’t matter what you say or do
We’re just better than you
Smarter than you we’re smarter than you
You can read books and go bask to school
but we’re still smarter than you
Richer than you we’re richer than you
you can work all day and all night too
but we’ll always be richer than you
Hey you gotta pay
We look better than you we look better than you
you can buy new clothes get a new hairdo
but we just look better than you
Righter than you we’re righter than you
you can pray to your God ‘til your face turns blue
but we’re still righter than you
Better than you we’re better than you
Don’t matter what you say or do
We’re just better we’ll always be better
Yeah we’re better than you.

Lovedoll
02:49
|
|||
Silent eyes open wide
She’s all that I need to keep me company
So sIlky inside just like Pygmalion’s bride
cut from the love tree she was made just for me
She’s my love doll wet dream come true now
She’s my one true love
Legs and thighs open wide
We don’t need to go out
She never screams she don’t shout
Our love can never die like Pinocchio could not lie
inside and out there can be no doubt ‘bout our love
From front side or back with hair blonde red or black
Her interchangeable face brightens up this place
now there ain’t no turnin’ back yeah I’m a paraphiliac
some say what we do is unchaste
but our love is above time and space

Beautiful Disease
02:46
|
|||
Born in a big rig truck, destined to die in a cheap motel
I drink down bad luck, wake up in county cell.
Picked up this virus on the side of the road,
gave it my love, a comfortable home.
When starts melt into sky
sleepin’ snakes still lie, poisonin’ my dreams.
I’m in love with my disease, my beautiful disease.
My mother of infectrion raised a still born baby.
We starred in distempered dramas, kept corrupt company.
Now deadly infestation is my only trusted friend,
kisses me good morning, holds my hand until the end
When day falls through to night
sleep walkin’ spiders bite, poisonin’ my dreams.
I’m in love with my disease, my beautiful disease.

Don’t Tie Me Down don’t need good words

Don’t Tie Me Down don’t want no lies
Don’t Tie Me Down don’t need the truth

Born to take, born to use
Born to cheat, born to lose
Born to laugh, born to lie
Born to kill born to die
don’t want no money
don’t need good luck
just wanna drink, fight, and fuck
don’t want no job
don’t need a God
yeah fuck your sex, drugs, and rock
don’t want no friends

Pica
01:14
|
|||
Rock paper fur and foam
throw out the meat eat the bone
broken teeth on blood stained grass
there’s sacred soil beneath that trash
Not enough
Plaster paint balls of hair
parasite spread through the air
broken minds in a TV dream
fools gold inside that shiney screen
Not enough, not enough, not enough not enough shit
Ice urine sand and clay
my medication makes me sick all day
broken lungs climate denials
sellin’ sin with crooked smiles
Not enough, not enough, not enough

Toxine your my little bad dream so crazy
Toxine so helpless so obscene so lazy
like an old magazine
like a broken down machine
all you want all you want is love
Toxine you pray to Jesus every day so holy
Toxine you only want your man to stay never go away
all you want all you want is love
Toxine
They hurt you they desert you
the world is so unfair
They hate you and they rape you
you look up at me
with a cold blank stare
Toxine you eat your troubles every day so hungry
Toxine the sadness never goes away its here to stay
all you need all you need is love
Toxine

I Hate Christmas, I Hate Christmas
I Hate Christmas, I Hate Christmas
Ho Ho Ho!
I’m sick of fat old men and the sight and smell of holly
Not those fuckin’ kids again I’m so tired of bein’ jolly
Don’t wanna hear you sing, your sentiments are sappy
Don’t give me anything I don’t want it
Don’t tell me to be happy.
It’s just another year there still ain’t no peace on earth
Don’t need your good cheer I don’t wanna go to church
Decorated with these lights this street is still scary
Jesus fuckin’ Christ I don’t want it
Don’t tell me to be merry

I hate those fuckin' kids They're makin' too much noise
I'm always steppin' on their toys Cause I hate
I hate those little girls and boys
I hate those cats and dogs

Could be more great With just the right hate

Took those pills
Hoped that they would kill
Crashed my car
On the day the earth stood still
Now I'm dead inside
Come back to me, my suicide
Left my song unsung
Punched a hole inside my lung
Jumped off a bridge
On the day my heart got stung
Now I'm sore inside
Come back to me, my suicide
Happy Suicide
Happy Suicide
Shot my gun
Hoped my life was done
Set myself on fire
There in front of everyone
Now I burn on the inside
Come back to me, my suicide
Happy Suicide
Happy Suicide
Slit my wrists
You made me do this
Hung myself
On our tree of happiness
Hope you're dead inside
Come back to me, my suicide
Happy Suicide
Happy Suicide

Black Eyed and Blue demo
03:51
|
|||
Pain pain, bloody red stain,
its there when I lose and there when I gain.
We once walked in acid rain, jumped through rings of flame,
for love that is true is black eyed and blue.
Years years oceans of tears
washed out the glue that held back my fears
you once said my der then left me right here
for love that is true is black eyed and blue.
Within deep blue eyes I heard a cry, tell me why.
and I know it would be a lie if we said goodbye.
Strange age, winds of unchange,
fireworks long cooled gave birth to this plague,
we each dance in a cage naked on stage
for love that is true is black eyed and blue.

Teacher made me stay after school
Said that motorboating broke the school rules
Just trying' to get some
Climb the mountains in front of me
She's screamin'
She, yeah, yeah, yeah
Broke my body up against the wall
Tore my asshole up inside the bathroom stall
Just tryin' to get some
Stuck here in this deep dark well
Took a ride on a motorboat to hell
Just tryin' to get some

I know you think that someday I'll let you go
I think I know that one day my love you'll know
But all your bleeding lips can do is leave me cold
I want more, gimme more, so much more
Duct tape love
Greatest invention of mankind
Duct tape love
It's the only way to make you mine
I know you think that someday you will be saved
I think I know that one day my heart will break
But since I tied you up, you're all I'm living for
I want more, there's gotta be more, so much more
Duct tape love
Greatest invention of mankind
Duct tape love
It's the only way to make you mine
I know you think that someday I'll care for you
I think I know that one day we will be through
But I'm not done with this until I bury you
I want more, gimme more, so much more
Duct tape love
Greatest invention of mankind
Duct tape love
It's the only way to make you mine
Bury you
