Century of the Boot

you might say you don't care
and you might look away
you might think it'll be better one day
or say it's always been this way
but eventually the century of the boot
will be on your neck too
neck tatooo won't be as much fun
when it's your number and you're next in line
in front of an oven

Taste the Chrome

when I go to sleep
a shotgun is my pillow
when i quantum leap
a pistol for my widow
when i go to peak
i do it in high school
when i beat my meat
a bat to a molecule
i lost all my self control
all i wanna do is rock and roll
throw away my cell phone
drink and dance til the cows come home
when i learned what to say
a computer was my teacher
when i get home from work
i microwave my dinner
when i stop to think
i do it in the nude
when the future looks bleak
i put my hair in a snood
drink and dance and taste the chrome

My Drinking Begins
01:08
|

i wake up with puke on my shoes
i wake up with nothing to lose
i go to work in jeans and t-shirt
people in suits think i'm a jerk
but where do they end and my drinking begin?
it's five o'clock somewhere with my friends
good time charlies one and all
Brenda, Dave, Grandma and Paul
they understand being drunk at the malll
they can relate to getting kicked out of the Big and Tall
i go to sleep with death metal chicks
i go to sleep with something to kick
i dream of home, green beans and loose teeth
invisible women on my chest, i can't breathe

O Insomnia
00:56
|
|||
|
got no sleep, mind raced all night
staring at the hallway light
now i'm tired, just want to nap
coffee, work and I feel like crap
insomnia, o insomnia
don't I deserve some rest?
insomnia, o insomnia
don't want to wait til I'm dead
trouble sleeping my whole life
tried booze, no booze, meditation
CBD, THC, medications
white noise machine and I just get up to read

Acceptable Loss
00:59
|
|||
|
if our lives are fantasy
then we should die for the economy
step right up, ladies and gents
one by one, step off the cliff
two by two get on the vent
three by three lick the floor
four by four to heaven's door
you might survive, tube down yr throat
and if you don't, that's acceptable loss
there's more important things than living
and since your whole life's been spent working towards the grave
what's a few more months waiting tables anyway?

we into communism and voodoo
and i don't want you to get confused
or think this is in error
when our turn comes
we shall not make excuses for the terror
if the sex magick veers into violence
if there's an arson or a looting at the Target
if George can't breathe with his neck on yr knee
if there's no justice, there's no peace
if the cops jamming the feed
we shall not make excuses for the terror
