Lowering My Standards
01:55

Tonight, tonight
I’m lowering my standards
Tonight, tonight
I’ve stuffed my mattress full of laurels and it’s waiting for me
Tonight, tonight
We’re forcing the issue
Tonight, tonight
Nothing will satisfy
Tomorrow, tomorrow
We’ll set new standards
Tomorrow, tomorrow
Will be easier than today

Mormon on a Mission
04:06
|

I’m on a mission
Of indecision
Wallowing, waiting, wasting my time
It came to me finally
That I’m untimely
‘Cause I don’t care about styrofoam hair
And what I really want ain’t never there.
There’s a little boy inside of me
And he wants too much, more than I can see
So I look at him and I shrug my shoulders
All that’s for sure is that I’m getting older
I’m on a mission
With Mormon precision
Looking for converts, but no one has time
She came to me finally
Only a year untimely
Not a care when I touch her hair
But when I woke it wasn’t really there
There’s an old man standing on me
And he’s pulling me up so that I can see
So I look at him and I shrug my shoulders
All that’s for sure is that I’m getting colder

He got this city locked up
And it don’t mean a thing
He comes claiming no fear of fire
But he can’t take the heat
Long time goin’ that way
Been planning since before he was born
Putting effort into something or another
Without even a direction to push
She got her demons locked up
And about which nothing to sing
That pretty face don’t hint at the fury
Of the nicest girl that you’ll ever meet
Power to the black sheep
Doing everything to never be shorn
Putting purpose into every little step
Before even a direction is known
Hey, we’re gonna take this town tonight
Looking for something worth a fight
The booze and the beat will bind us
The power of the fight will blind us
We think we’re always right, don’t mind us
We’ve got the moral right behind us
Hey, we’re gonna take this town tonight
Looking for something worth a fight
Hey, our youth is burning bright
Looking for something to do tonight

Coffee is the Blue Pill
03:08
|
|||
With your help, I assumed it would be
Easier than this
But it’s been damn near an hour
And I ain’t got piss
Through the years, you’ve always been there
When I needed a brief hot streak
C’mon now, let’s get this done ‘cause
My bladder’s about to break
I was counting on you today
But you didn’t come through in your normal way
You know that I can’t be in a good mood on my own
I was counting on you
It’s been said creation can be
Accomplished without drugs
But that’s like saying that the world
Can be saved my hugs

Surface of the Sun
02:46
|

At dawn, I get in my ship and I go
To where the weather is warm
Got a jug of water to keep me wet
But I’ll get burnt no matter sunscreen’s worn
And I’ve been working on the surface of the sun
Sweat dripping in my eyes
It’s hard labor, but it must be done
Entertain them, or the people will rise
There is no time to spare
Working where there’s no air
Pointing at that spec in the distance, I say,
“Hey, man, that’s my home”
He don’t understand a word I say
And the tongue he speaks is one that I’ve never known
I’ve been working on the surface of the sun
Sweat dripping in my eyes
It’s hard labor, but it must be done
Entertain them, or the people will rise
Days are long on the surface of the sun
So far from everything I know
I’ve been working on the surface of the sun
Where you can live, but never grow
On the surface of the sun

Mosquito
04:04
|
|||
“Live free or die,” forefather said
Ain’t nothing wrong with that
“Eye for an eye,” commander said
Don’t fuck with the fat
The mosquito had malaria
We’ll hunt him down
Flail our arms in mass hysteria
We’ll kill the swarm
We’ll smoke you out
We are so badass
We’ve cornered the market on freedom
Here in the country of sleaze
We’ll do what we want with the concept
Define it as we please
There’s so much to fear in the world
I mean, have you seen the news?
But we’ve got a strong man to protect us
From those with skins of dark hues
He’s taking over, just like Bonapart
He says it’s so that we won’t be blown apart
