All bark
And never bite
All we ever fucking do
Is fight
Take me back
To those nights
Take me back
To those nights
I'd squash this beef
If I ever could
But I know you
Never would
I'm drowning
You're the rock
Where's this line
We cross in chalk
You know what it is
It's all...
It's all...

Lottery Tickets
02:31
|

Some people fight in wars
Others sell their bodies like whores
But there's just one thing I do
That separates me from you
I buy lottery tickets
With change that I find on the ground
I refuse to work a grill
I refuse to pay my bills
I will not get a job
I'm too lazy, too lazy to rob, cuz
I buy lottery tickets
With change that I find on the ground
I'll buy lottery tickets
Till I'm dead, dead on the ground

I think I gotta grow some extra teeth cuz I've
Bit off more than I can chew
I'm rolling down the rainbow road careening
In a barrel towards you
I keep my eyes on my fingers, on my hands, keep
Keep my eyes on my fingers and my hands I keep my
I keep my eyes on my arms and my legs, yeah
Keep my eyes on my hands
I've held it down for years and years
But I'm gonna feel my brain leak out my ears
Why'm I all fucked up for
Why'm I all fucked up for, man
Why'm I all fucked up for
Why'm I all fucked up
Why'm I all fucked up for
For fucked up is all I been
For fucked up I am all for
Why'm I all fucked up for
Deforestation in my heart
They take and take and they always want more
Verdant mountains torn apart
But hey, that ain't shit I ain't seen before
Get home before it gets dark
Though I've never been the type to run
Salamander got the spark
I'm sick of always being so glum
Salamander with a gun
Will I see the moon or will I see the sun
Salamander with a gun
A fully loaded blunderbuss
I've held it down for years and years
But I'm gonna feel my brain leak out my ears
Why'm I all fucked up for
Why'm I all fucked up for, man
Why'm I all fucked up for
Why'm I all fucked up
Why'm I all fucked up for
Why'm I all fucked up for
Why'm I all fucked up for
Why'm I all fucked up for

Goblin in Me
02:19

Well there's a tall little bugger
And he's just a little stubborn
And he's standing right outside of my door
He's mean
And he's lean
And he's smoking all of my green
By golly
I think this goblin
He might be me
I look in the mirror
And what do I see
Gross green man staring back at me
He's got my wallet
He's got my keys
By golly
I think this goblin might be me

Lovers of Valdaro
02:18

I covet our memories inside an hourglass
So I can hold them forever and see how long they last
Across the sands of time I'll wait for you and stay
Till the lightbulb in the sun starts flickering away
I'll be so lucky dear to wake up to your face
I'll tiptoe through the world with you cuz living's not a race
Once it's all said and done I'll pass with a smiling grin
I've waited so long my love, to be with you again

The End
03:05

At the freak show's bonfire
That lasted through the night
A stray spark flew and set
The big top alight
Trapeze artists start falling through the air
But when they fell nothing else was there
And by the end you would've never guessed
This used to be the largest county fair
This is the end
Elephant man's running as fast as he can
This is the end
Bearded lady sits on a stump
Thinking of the man with the enormous hump
This is the end
The carnival is burning down
Hundreds of corpses of burning clowns
And people on unicycles
Try to roll away
And their tire blew, and they then flew
Up up and away
And the jester sits and cries
For all those good carnies who've died
And he lets out an exaggerated sigh
This is the end
