LIFE’S A BEACH
dip these feet
in the rising sea
give me a few more degrees of heat
it’s February
but we never freeze
all that means to me is life’s a beach
can’t face the facts so I lay
let sun burn up my back
I dare the gulls to bite me in the ass
it’s conspiracy
they wanna blame me
and shame me for my diesel SUV
I got teached to take it personally
somebody told me that life’s a beach
can’t face the facts
bury my head In sand at that
let sharks attack and bite me in the ass

CRYSTAL PISS
I thought I’d better pop in
in case you had forgotten
if you need a cure-all
‘cause your body’s going rotten
or if you want extra cash
selling magic craps, we got em
the scheme’s a really steep pyramid
you’re down at the bottom
feel the healing power of this bullshit
our placebos will grant your every wish
snake oil sales are making us so rich
parched marks buying it
drinking crystal piss
one free month of supplements for supper
brain force plus
and a bunch of fuckin Uppers
keeps the frogs from making you gay
it keeps the evil spirits away

PARALYZED
awaken broken shaking aching head
can’t keep sleeping
deepen creeping dread
demons tweaking feelings overnight
screaming in my dreams and sowing fright
fear is weakening my feeble mind
the fear is taking over my whole life

OUT OF THIN AIR
no one said life is fair
new problems appear out of thin air
much to crush your dreams
bursting at the seams
flush what we deem to be unnecessary
but in the scheme
it’s always rinse and repeat
forget our shit exists
‘til it’s all we’ve got to eat
out of thin air

CATCH YOUR DEATH
don’t worry if it’s fresh
no time to catch your breath
that scent in the air’s the end
you get to catch your death

POT OF GOLD
since I have no good reason
to think leprechauns are real
I don’t believe em when people say
there’s an end of the rainbow
and there I’ll find a pot of gold
