Can’t say nothing (Can’t say shit) It’s goin down at The Hexagon It couldn’t get much worse Can’t say nothing (Can’t say shit) Paul Bunyan is smoking crack It’s going down at The Hexagon It couldn’t get much worse Moo and Worm are full of fleas I got molly and 2CB's I've got a lucky fly hovering around my head She hands me a light and asks me when I’ve been This time, I said “I’ve been busy” Ben Bizzey’s blues

I should’ve been a mechanic, so I can work in a shop Should’ve been an attorney, then I’d know how to talk Everything is so fucked up, am I dying or not? But I keep my head down, man. I don’t get tied up in knots Hipster bakery, the NRA It’s all the fucking same to me Shareholders and paychecks get everything done Bums like us that make it work (the system) Can’t change someone’s beliefs and opinions People will always be pieces of shit Low frequency vibration I know I’m white so I can say shit But I’ve seen the effects and I’ve seen the damage Cash and property, what everyone wants Displace the people, “let them figure it out” Low frequency vibration Guess it doesn’t really matter what you grow up to be As long as you get a good paycheck, and you can lay down and sleep

I had to get it off of my head Off of my head I had to get it off of my head to move on Full of fear, withl glossy eyes, you set the rules And I was scared I’d dry you out; you’d lose your cool But a chip on my shoulder told me I had to get it off of my head Off of my head I had to get it off of my head to man up Feeling like some beach bum trash (I don’t surf!) Eating hair with every move, it tastes like dirt I had to let my balls hang and flex my pecs So I could be my own man Off of my head I had to get it off of my head to move on

I was a dope boy We came in the house We knocked on the door and we sat on the couch We went to the parties and we’d go to the bars We’d go to the bathroom and we'd go to the car I was a dope boy (I was a dope boy) I played in a band I had these girls eating out of my hand Ludacris and Underoath turned all the way up Blue raspberry vodka in a Taco Bell cup I was a dope boy (I was a dope boy) Now I’m out the game Got a whole new perspective, my priorities changed Right when I saw her I knew she was rad Now we live together and I’m like my dad Now I’m like my fucking dad I was a dope boy

Damn, Dude 03:12
Damn, dude. Life’s a scam, dude. The venom brain rears it’s stupid grin I’ve abandoned what matters for means and ends I was mistaken cuz there was nothing. I’m fucking with me I gave it all up, and now I see nothing Damn, dude. This spectacular scam, dude. The eyes roll back in my head I’m in the deep end, I can’t touch I’m just treading in chunks The game is rigged, the card is forced, I need a new pack Being dealt a shit hand, falling head first in a scam I’m becoming the master of slack I don’t consider anyone, I’m a sit-down man Just a middling road hack, breaking down for fast food and unleaded gas So come have a seat and watch me, cuz it really really really really matters What? Why am I wasting this time? Yours, theirs and mine I’m all excuses. Very Little remains. Very little came…Always fucking drained Blank brain, blank brain, blank brain, blank brain Moving sluggishly through time, 9000 miles of grime Struggle fucked through another useless line I’m fretted, but I strive to be fretless Relieved to be bedded, perturbed by the wetness Only an honest error once. I haven’t been right in months. Hard habits, hardwiring minds, hard habits, hardwiring minds, hard habits, hardwiring minds With scattered extra parts The Stubborn Being stays stuck, the Stubborn Being stays stuck, the Stubborn Being stays stuck And it will never sit pretty….ya

They’re funny, they’re boring, they’re out in the car “Revenge of the Nerds” Ariel says at the bar There’s a cover, it’s too much, “We want to play there” The kids at the shows they don’t mosh, they just stare High On Lows, One-Eyed Doll THC, Dead To Fall In the end, it’s all just fun, take a breath and hug someone When we die, the wheels don’t stop, this cat piss world, The rippers and the flops The shows and the feelings, the people, the parties Humans, a cancer, but all that shit mattered It goes by in moments, you’re left with a t-shirt Find me at the bar and well talk of the old shows

Wound up and restless again, I gotta relax Delusions of grandeur again, I drink my coffee too fast Getting soft again, smoking too much weed Too many car insurance commercials on TV, they say The human race is a peaceful one An Active mind is a useful one Put your hands on my slimy, yellow body and squeeze I’ve got a shameful disease Be my Cheryl David, I’ll try to be sweet Soft grass and trees You said “Think positive…it’s only the power that you give it” Some days my peace is true, some days it’s full of shit But there’s an island of garbage in the pacific sea And there’s a prison full of black men waiting for a son they’ll never see An active mind isn’t useful anymore The human race can’t be peaceful My heavy mind is only burdensome But this lovesick melody is beautiful My mind is a congressman playing the game He says he’s helping only ‘til he gets paid My mind is a liquor store that’s open ‘til three You don’t respect the place, you just take shit and leave My mind is a cigarette that’s tossed into trash Burns down to the filter and you choke on the ash My mind is meadow with sunflowers and grass It’s calm and it’s beautiful and it’s littered with rats

Gape It 02:19
The walls are closing in I need something to stop this shit Something wet and something hard Something I can fucking count on (Let's stretch it out) I wanna see that hole (Let's stretch it out) I wanna know I’m free (Let's stretch it out) I wanna taste it all (Let's stretch it out) Escape Plan B It’s way too dark in here And way too dry There are things I’d like to do Before I eat shit and die (Let's stretch it out) I need to taste that hole (Let's stretch it out) I need to know I’m free (Let's stretch it out) I need to feel it all (Let's stretch it out) Escape plan 3 Spread it Ream it Gape it Scream it Open up for me Slowly at first Then faster Then harder, unsuspectingly Not a finger, but a fist, with a kiss, kiss, kiss

I’m not a slut, I’m not a jezebel I’m just a girl with a sex drive I had hope for you and me, boy Did you like me? I was waitin to see, boy Couldn’t wait to tell you everything in my head Now I’m fucked up and I wish I was dead We started kissing right after we met It was awkward but it was sweet We took our clothes off, almost fucked in your van I started talking and you got weird and left Did you like my breasts? Did you like my teeth? Did you notice the way I wanted to stay in your backseat? Things didn’t really turn out the way I wanted them to Nothing ever really does, but you know what? I’m coming for you Wistful longing mixed with jealous hatred To Boston, To Texas Boy, I’ll be looking for you You’ll cook and clean and look good in suits I’ll bring home the checks, I’ll listen to you I’ll be all that you need

Hey man! What makes you think you've gotta stop now? There's an afterlife ahead of us - we can still get plowed I'm not prejudice against the living or the dead I'll stick shit up my ass with whoever keeps me fed Boofing with Chris Farley's ghost Boofing with Chris Farley

I’m spitting philosophy at bricks And I’m starting to get really ticked (We’re getting pissed) We can’t see eye to eye No reason to my rhyme Perception’s killing all our cats tonight (Killing those fucking cats) Piss on your friends If you want a war Fighting fire with fire galore Allies will turn If you leave em’ no choice You gotta recognize When they’re hearing your voice Forced to fight back If we like it or not We live in an era Of Xanax and thots Balling our fists Now we’re ready to fight If it’s what it takes We’re gonna tear out your eyes You better run I'll fight you Ripped in my cosmic shirt
