lyrics

TOOK MY GRANNY. PUT DOWN MY PA.
JAMMED MY UNCLES ALWAYS RUNNING FROM THE LAW,
MADE A HOLE IN MY GRANNIES BACK,
POISONED BY A BUDGET AND A SCHEDULE HACK.
MELTED MY FRIENDS TEETH: HIS HALF-MEASURE DREAMS;
& THE LEVITY OF A SOUTHERN SPRING BREEZE
WHO CAN COMPLAIN? GOT PHONES & ENDLESS SCREENS VERTICAL CULTURE, SIMULATING ANSWERS TO ANYTHING
AND THEY DON'T MAKE SENSE. DOESN'T HAVE TO
SUPPLEMENTAL NOISE & WORKING BATHROOMS.
WE FLUSH OUR WASTE, BURN OUR PLASTIC
WRITHE AND CRY, SWEATING STRAIGHT INTO THE MATTRESS
NO ONE CAN LOVE, SO NO ONE CAN CARE
CHOOSE YOUR AVATAR, CHANGE THEIR HAIR
WORK IS PERMANENT, THE RENT IS CONSTANT
Bare ASS TO THE WALLS LIKE BLINDFOLDED HOSTAGES

SING OF GUNS AND A JESUS WITH AMMO
LESS LIKE JIMMY STEWART, MORE LIKE RAMBO.
THE BLOOD FILLS THE CUP AND THE CUP IS BROKE
IT TAKES MORE VIOLENCE TO OVERCOME THE CHOKE
THE CONSTANT SICKNESS, THE NEED TO MEDICATE
DRINK OUR FEARS AND BLAME OUR BRAINS
THERAPY DONT WORK WHEN THE ROACHES WONT PAY RENT WHATS POETRY TO THE DEBTORS WHO CANT AFFORD FRIENDS QUOTES FROM A BOOK YOU NEVER READ
VIRTUES YOU CLAIM, BUT AVOIDED TO LIVE
THE MYTH IS BETTER THAN THE GRACE WE FORGET
THAT'S THE BUZZ THAT NEVER HITS
