Piss & Moan

Please cybernetic policeman, arrest this girl
Her golden egg is not a Fabergé
For God has bestowed upon me
Responsibility
To piss myself and moan until I’m old and gray
I cast all my stones from a basement, thousand miles high
Anointed as a righteous sleeper cell
Believe what you wanna believe
But if there’s an afterlife
I’ll piss myself and moan while you all burn in hell
But follow me
And you’ll see
I’ll teach you how to be pure
A paragon of all morality
Take my hand
And you’ll never
Make a mistake again
I’ll show you how to be a saint
Like me
Like me
Like me
Like me
Like me
Like me
Please like me
Please like me
Please like me
Please
Please
Please mister internet constable, arrest this guy
He doesn’t practice reciprocity!
The details are fuzzy but hey
That’s never stopped me from
Practicing the virtues of hypocrisy
Cause you don’t deserve my forgiveness for anything
But I’m gonna screenshot your apology
And print it out and hang it beside
My California King
And piss myself and moan for all eternity

Hayley’s working through her one year gap
Submits her college applications
And it’s time for her to relax
But her friends think they discovered
All the struggles in the Middle East
And they want to know her opinion
She just wants to look at her Instagram
She doesn’t want to have an opinion
Marcus plays a little game online
He finds the virtual utopia
Is preferable to real life
And he beats up on whatever
Mommy’s credit card allows him to
Cause he’s tired of trying to beat the game
And he hates adversity anyway
Just wanna pay some money to beat the game
And Charlie takes a little shopping spree
He buys some wires and a timer
And some pipes to hold the whole thing
And he sits in his garage
And tweaks the knobs on all the elements
Cause he don’t like Bank of America
And he’s always been such a character
He’s gonna blow up Bank of America
You
Disconnected from me
Disconnected from you
Disconnected from me
Disconnected from you
Disconnected from me
Disconnected from you
Disconnected from me
Disconnected from you
I believe in my head
I believe in my heart
I believe in my self
I believe in my art
Even when we’re providing
The nuclear codes
To the next debutantes
From reality shows
And the temperatures rise
To compete with disease
Mountain Dew on the shelf
Plastic rings in the sea
When invisible kids
Manufacture my clothes
Apologies if I’m maybe
Too on the nose
Empty bungalows line
Tent cities in the streets
Does it matter to you?
Does it matter to me?
When the ad break comes in
At the top of the hour
Selling mutual funds
To the youth underground
And the streamer is faded
And drunk on his views
He says, “Thanks for the raid;
Vote blue no matter who”
To rely on a pill
To calibrate your thoughts
To ensure Dr. Vyvanse
More money than god
Dopamine deficits
Entertainment debris
Hear the salesman’s voice ring:
“Everything is easy!”
I believe in my head
I believe in my heart
I believe in my hands
I believe in my

Serving a permanent lifetime ban
Sugar cane rattlesnake has a secret
Fortress in his mind
She haunts him in the afternoon
Her ghost is in the Florida room
He tries his best to humanize
The glimpse he caught of her online
She crashes memory scattershot
And that is why they call her
The Deleter
Deleter
Firewalls from the crystal ball in her forehead
Radar guns for the surveillance of a spirit
Tormenting his mind
She haunts him in the afternoon
Her ghost is in the Florida room
He tries his best to humanize
The glimpse he caught of her online
She crashes memory scattershot
He’s trying to avert the thought
It doesn’t make a difference
But that’s not where the story ends
Cause maybe everything went wrong
In visits to the hospital?
In overbearing parenting?
Or something more embarrassing?
He ruins his relationships
She terminates him bit by bit
This rumination juggernaut
And that is why they call her
The Deleter
Deleter
Deleter
Deleter
Deleter
Maybe everything went wrong
In conversations clinical
Intrusive algorithm cheats
His calculation’s obsolete
He’s never going to defeat
Her ghost is in the Florida room
She haunts his every honeymoon
He wonders had he not been caught
She crashes every afterthought
And that is why they call her
The Deleter

I Dreamt Of A Jaguar

I dreamt of a jaguar
I dreamt of a jaguar
I dreamt of a jaguar
I dreamt of a jaguar
He didn’t have any money
He didn’t have all his papers
He took a look at the grounds of the registrar
And then he planned his escape cause
He wants to dine with the nobles
He wants an ivory tower
He took a nap in the half moon battery
And felt a tug at his collar
But he didn’t wake up cause
He’s only paid by the hour
He doesn’t have any power
And so he dreamt of a jaguar
It was a Jacksonville Jaguar
It was a Jacksonville Jaguar
It was a Jacksonville Jaguar
It was a Jacksonville Jaguar

Your life dreams inadvertently
Help fund a new atrocity
To keep some pitiful
War criminal invincible -
That’s so liminal!
Trash your humanities degree
To mine for cryptocurrency
Or put on your Sunday best
And go get obsessed
With earning debt
And sell cassettes
On the internet
I don’t wanna die
I just wanna sleep forever
I just wanna sleep forever and ever
I don’t wanna die
I just wanna sleep forever
I just wanna sleep forever and ever now
Forever
Chat with M-I-L-F’s dot com
Where all the helicopter moms
Are on donating blood
To pony up for zirconia
Cubic zirconia
Cause there’s nothing left to be explored
Distract yourself til you get bored
Resigned to laissez-faire
For some billionaire’s new love affair
With vaporware A.I. Healthcare
I don’t wanna die
I just wanna sleep forever
I just wanna sleep forever and ever
I don’t wanna die
I just wanna sleep forever
I just wanna sleep forever and ever
I don’t wanna die
I just wanna sleep forever
I just wanna sleep forever and ever
I don’t wanna die
I just wanna sleep forever
I just wanna sleep forever and ever now
Forever
And ever
And ever

My Catholic Dog

Oh my god I can’t believe it
Changed my heart
I never thought I’d see the day
But here we are somehow
Oh my god I can’t believe it
Changed my heart
I never thought I’d see the day
But here we are somehow
Oh my catholic dog
Curled up in his tiny bed
Bandana around his neck
He’ll sleep away half the day
Oh my catholic dog
You don’t how to communicate
You never say anything
You don’t even change your face
Oh my catholic dog
You don’t bark and never snip
You just act like a lunatic
When I go to get you a stick
Oh my catholic dog
You don’t know what you’ve meant to me
And I hope that your memory’s
Strong enough to remember me
Oh my catholic dog
As soon as I saw those sad eyes
I knew that our souls were tied
But I have to say goodbye
To my catholic dog
And goodbyes are always hard
But it’s time for us to part
Even though this will break my heart
Oh my catholic dog
Been crying all through the plans
But I’m trying the best I can
Though I know you don’t understand
Oh my catholic dog
As soon as I saw your sad eyes
I knew that our souls were tied
But I have to say goodbye
To my catholic dog
Oh my god I can’t believe it
Changed my heart
I never thought I’d see the day
But here we are somehow
Oh my god I can’t believe it
Changed my heart
I never thought I’d see the day
But here we are somehow
A new town to discover
I’ll visit when I’m on tour
Promise me you’ll take care of her
Oh my catholic dog
I’m sorry, I can’t do this at all…
From my hand to your sweet paw
I hope you’ll remember me
Oh my catholic dog

Washing the blood
Out of his shirt
He never wanted anyone to get hurt
Favorite son
Flash in the pan
He learned to read their faces
Like the back of his hand
Why do you want it
When the color’s all wrong?
Why do you need it
When it’s already gone?
Weightless
Breathless
Fearless
Deathless
Easy way in
Easy way out
A path of least resistance nervous breakdown
Watching the fog
Settle in the hills
I’m sure the place is nice
But I don’t get the appeal
Why do you want it
When the color’s all wrong?
Why do you need it
When it’s already gone?
Weightless
Breathless
Fearless
Deathless
But it doesn’t really matter
The losers on the radio
Sing about whatever
And chew their bloody mary’s
So what if I don’t want it?
So what if I don’t have a god?
Give me all your money
Give up your fucking credit cards
Leave ‘em on the table
And make yourself invisible
It’s hard to be an artist
When everyone is cynical
Yes I see the irony
Yes I know the kettle’s black
Spare me the soliloquy
Just put the fucking cash in the bag

Lunar Dawn
What’s that flower you have on?
Could it be a faded Rose from days gone by?
For we agreed to say
We were leaving here today
Determined by the palace in our minds
O the rhythm of our hearts
Is beating like a drum
With the words “I love you”
Rolling off our tongues
And forever will we roam
For we know no place is home
You’ll go north, I’ll go east
Goodnight tangerine
O the rhythm of my heart
Is beating like a drum
With the words “I love you”
Rolling off my tongue
But forever shall we roam
For we know no place is home
You’ll go north, I’ll head east
Goodnight tangerine
