A Mighty Fine Time

Left the house to get frozen pizza
then saw my friends, Seth and Brady
Brady said my name
then Seth asked, "Whatcha up to?"
I told them I was gonna get a frozen pizza
Then they told me they were getting sushi
right next to where I was gonna get that pizza
Then asked if I wanted to get sushi with them
I said, "That's a mighty fine idea."
Brady had the day off
Seth was taking a break from painting his walls
We were sat next to some sort of electric fountain
Brady turned it on and it screamed like a hell-parrot
For drinks we all ordered water
We split six dumplings and three rolls of sushi
of varying spice and sea creature variety
We split the bill and if I were to speak for us all
I'd say we all had a mighty fine time

When In Debt, Pinky Out
06:10

Should have dropped out of school
Now I've dropped out of life, who knew
I'd be all fucked up on mayonnaise
and it sucks, I didn't plan on this
I drink beer that tastes like pennies threw up and pissed upon
Want to sell my degree, but it's worth less than one mow of a lawn
What's that smell? It must be myself
Because there's no one here but me
Basement dweller doing less than swell
I want to sell my college degree
When in debt, pinky out
I daydream and I'm boring,
but I'm okay seeing these habits forming
It's the most important things that I keep on ignoring
The government cheats and anarchy is dumb

Psketty

Spending time searching for hell
She took the candle out past Booth
Looking withdrawn, unable to tell
Concrete toes held down the truths
She let the candle burn to her distal phalanx
and slept for the rest of her time on this planet
I am half a bag of noodles
and you are seven to eight minutes of boiling water

Feeble Knievel

Two moon man and three two hearted
It's four o'clock and I've been started
Thinning blood and warming mind
I've got the plan to win Ben Stein's money and then I'll be fine
I'll be the feeble, inefficient, delicate, and Brahms
Sleep and dream of different creatures, some are monsters and some are not
Stood still near the corner
Climbed a mountain, never to the top
You can see it in the skies between the lines left behind by pilot kinds
I'll be the feeble, frail, delicate, and Brahms
Doddering, indecisive, out of gas, falling ineffectual, languid, woozy

I Never Wake Up Alright
03:16

This sun never shines
It burns (burns, burns, burns)
These birds never sing
They harass (ass, ass, ass)
This river doesn't roll
It flows (flows, flows, flows)
She doesn't bathe in the sand
She sits on it (sits, sits, sits)
I never wake up alright from a dream
Flowers bloom behind my back
Flowers flower behind my back
Flowers blossom behind my back
She's not as hard as a diamond
She's fleshy (she, she, she)
She's not soft as a breeze
She's fleshy (she, she, she)

Shit Blue Damn

The lake is foaming like a 32 of blues
What is with these blues blowing me?
The lake is foaming like a 32 of blues
I am blue, blue I am. I am blue, shit blue damn

Adventure Days
03:45
|
|||
|
Do you remember adventure days?
There they sit, their hands are taken
I only remember yesterdays
Pay no mind, it's spent on rent
I'm so tired, sludge in my chest
I think it's because I woke up this morning

All That Mattress
04:06
|

|
I've seen the Eiffel Tower
From right here on this borrowed air mattress
I've seen the Sphynx and pyramids
Full-screen, that's all that mattress
I've been to where the robin shits
I've splashed in puddles to hide my piss
I've taken the time to say nothing
There are plenty of things I have not done
Making a list of those things is another one
Grew up putting snakes in buckets
That's as far as the plan ever went
Also, in our town there was a dragon
I'd like to leave this town
but I'll just stay around
There are enough things I have never done
To reminisce of these things is another one

Broken Skin
03:53
|

|
Like the mud under troubled waters
Can't stay below though I know I aughta
When I'm alone I think I've shown
Signs of pneumonia
The devil he was just an old country doctor
I met the master of the universe on his knees
I'm gonna sit down and unfold
Here comes the night, take my advice
For every twist, there's a turn
For every piss, there's a turd
I'm a poet, suck my scrote
Take these broken skin
and help me learn some self-defense
against the earthy elements
On a flesh horse I ride
Contemplating common sense
Now I'm losing confidence
Maybe I need compliments
or just some better condiments

As Big As The Sky
03:47

It will be satisfying, being as big as the sky
and somersaulting through time and space
It will be pleasing to be laid down on my spine
and have the whole world thrown onto my face
It will be nice to get away from earth for awhile
Feeling the warmth of being as big as the sky
Let the sea come up from under the eye
and mountains erased by water's replace
Then for a moment, nothing will betide
and after time, nothing will continue taking place

Foreverevereverever
04:47
|

|
I am going back to the place I was foreverevereverever
everevereverever
You were so young when birds still sung
Ride yourself a dolphin to the top shelf now that you've found yourself
