If we've got everything Then why are we so bored Don't wanna be ignored Don't wanna be ignored Hey Too busy drawing swords Too busy getting yours And seeking out rewards But me I don't really give a good god damn about Making money with a master plan I don't want to be the one to sell His soul just to have a story to tell I don't really give a good god damn about Making money with a master plan I don't want to be the one to sell His soul just to have a story to tell No No No If we've got everything Then why are we so poor We wanna know for sure We wanna know for sure Hey Too tired to endure Too busy rest assured For seeking out rewards Because me I don't really give a good god damn about Making money with a master plan I don't want to be the one to sell His soul just to have a story to tell I don't really give a good god damn about Making money with a master plan I don't want to be the one to sell His soul just to have a story to tell No, no, no

All I taste is blood From your push and from your shove Is this how you show your love With a push and with a shove Nobody likes me, everybody hates me I'm gonna eat some worms Fat ones, skinny ones, little itty-bitty ones I'm gonna eat some worms All I taste is blood Chewing on my nervous thumbs Is this what I consist of? Nervousness and awkward love Nobody likes me, everybody hates me I'm gonna eat some worms Fat ones, skinny ones, little itty-bitty ones I'm gonna eat some worms

Mary Toft 04:08
A little fame was all she wanted So Mary said she was pregnant And gave birth to A couple of rabbits and a cat's leg But they put a lung in water The lung from her rabbit daughter And they saw that it was a floater Then they knew, then they knew This is a song about - Mary Toft! Have you heard about - Mary Toft! And her rabbit children - Mary Toft! Have you heard about her? A man came to confess About the rabbits she did request In her moment of total distress and madness But a little fame was all they wanted So their star the doctors flaunted Sir Richard stood and taunted Then she admitted This is a song about - Mary Toft! Have you heard about - Mary Toft! And her rabbit children - Mary Toft! Have you heard about her?

The bomb fell on a Saturday You told me I could blow away I don't want to be the one to say But you threw your life away Oh yeah, what's that you say? You've got a lot of memories from those days But what did you do today? What did you do today? The bomb fell on a Saturday You told me I could blow away I don't want to be the one to say But you threw your life away Oh yeah, what's that you say? We've got a lot of memories from those days But what did we do today? What did we do today?

I am not afraid of living out there on our own Yeah the thing that makes me more afraid is that I can't call it home And those big city lights will put a cloud around your head You'll forget about me, you'll forget all that I've said When you're gone I can feel something running up and down my left arm Like a heart attack How much I want you back I am not afraid of living out there on our own In that thing you call a city yeah, well I call catacombs And we'll fight, fight, fight until they understand We will not surrender we will die by our own hand When you're gone I can feel something running up and down my left arm Like a heart attack How much I want you back And if you're scared - it's ok, it's ok! We'll be prepared - it's ok, it's ok! For what's out there - it's ok, it's ok! I'll tell you right now we won't care anyway!

Hark! I hear the call of the slow man! His fast food is getting away!

You have so many theories that you can't prove Better keep on working into the night to find some truth This is the air and these are, these are my lungs And I breath in parts of everyone You cannot sustain - the more you take away No, you cannot sustain, the more you take away This lonely planet revolves around a glowing sun Like the nucleus and the atoms in everyone And it's a beautiful thing you gotta take it all in But I can guarantee that I will not be coming back here again You cannot sustain - the more you take away No, you cannot sustain, the more you take away

Watch out for the fox He doesn't act the way he talks Sends his contracts in a box Let's open it up and put in some rocks Send it down to the bottom of the sea To wait for me, to wait for me He bought our love with some free cd's Then he turned his attention to the TV Watch out for the fox Always sneaky when he walks Sends his contracts in a box Grab his tail and tie on some rocks And send him down to the bottom of the sea To wait for me, to wait for me He bought our love with some free cd's Then he turned his attention to the TV

If there's a god I'll tell you what We didn't turn on him man No, he turned on us And things were dark Right from the start But we didn't build something Just to watch it fall apart Apart, apart, apart Fall apart If there's a god I'll tell you what We didn't turn on him man No, he turned on us And things were dark Right from the start But we didn't build something Just to watch it fall apart Apart, apart, apart Fall apart

Close Around 02:47
I should not be scared of any ghosts that I might see Because I'm haunted everyday by so much more And the trouble I see multiplies infinitely Until what was cursed is then reversed into the norm And it seems to me ghosts are really you and me Forever trapped, forever never feeling free And we play evil tricks with our cold fingertips And walk in circles without ends for there to be Boo Hoo I would like to move far away from all the things That confine and restrict and deceive To a place where machines are only in dreams And what you see is something you can still believe Because we're never alone, but we're always by ourselves And in random acts a pattern can be found Dishonesty may be the air that we all breath But the truth is always somewhere close around Boo Hoo

Fashion 02:51
Fashion! They make you love it Use your descretion To rise above it Yeah, yeah, yeah! Because, fashion! They make you love it But if you use both hands Then we can shove it And we can breath Yeah we can breath We consume everything We can't breath Looking at you - See right through you Staring at you - See right through you Fashion! Think nothing of it Viewer descretion Rise above it Yeah, yeah, yeah! Because, fashion! They make you love it But if you use both hands Then we can shove it And we can breath Yeah we can breath We consume everything We can't breath

I'm sitting here, hurt by you You're somewhere in a hotel room Neither of us knows what to do I wish you were here, I could sing out to you That I will hold onto you if you want me to Or you, you can find me around Digging holes in the cold - holes in the cold ground I'm sitting here thinking about you Fishing around for a different point of view Wishing I found a way, wishing I knew How to catch and release bad feelings swimming in you And I will hold onto you if you want me to Or you, you can find me around Digging holes in the cold - holes in the cold ground Cold, cold ground In the cold ground
13.
I'll tell you what I want You know that I wanna hang around To show that I'll carry you down Below that, I'll carry you down You know that Down, down, down I'll tell you what I want You know that I wanna grow my wings To see that a life without a king Can be that, a life above all things Believe it Now, now, now Now
