7 Years in Regret
02:35
|
|||
|
7 times, 7 strings
7 wonders, 7 things
7 intros to cds
7th heaven is not for me
fold the line, a pack of wraps
empty sky is making me fall back
maybe this is a welcome change
but i don't think so
no i don't think so
7 songs about my mind breaking
personalities conflagrating
7 years of stressing out
hoarding tears and full of doubt
7 attempts at a lyrical failure
punching cones like a pro inhaler
7 ounces may get me through
but i don't think so
no i don't think so
i've had every excuse
still screaming "what's the use?"
i do it for the fans
all eight of you are like my fam-ily
but this is the finale

Quote This
03:32

life is a banquet
and most poor suckers
are starving to death!
listen to them.
children of the night.
what music they make.
it was beauty killed the beast.
you're gonna need a bigger boat.
round up the usual suspects.
where we're going we don't need roads.
here's looking at you, kid.
my precious.
what's your damage?
why should the police come?
nobody's called them.
hasta la vista, baby.
i see dead people.
i'm the king of the world.
i'll have what she's having.
you're killin' me, smalls.
show me the money.
you talking to me?
show me the money.
inconceivable!
i do not think that word means what you think it means.
a census taker once tried to test me.
i ate his liver with some fava beans
and a nice chianti.
surely, you can't be serious?
i am serious, and don't call me shirley.
to infinity and beyond.
nobody puts
baby in the corner.

One Chord
02:34
|
|||
|
there's only one chord in this song
and this song is not very long
if you don't enjoy it, you're wrong
because there's only one chord in this song
and i don't have to change
no i don't need to change
not a good flex for my range
it's just one chord, it won't change
there's only one chord in this song
but it's really coming along
i tend to rush past the third song
with star wars day i belong
and i don't have to change
no i don't need to change
instruments easy to arrange
no i don't need to change
no i don't have to change
because there's only one chord
it won't change
yeah

Hello There
01:57
|

the jundland wastes are my home
i just want to be left alone
i'm here for my duty
got no time for booty
a ronin forever i roam
you may not know me
but my name's kenobi
that crazy wizard of lore
don't you even dare
i'll always fight fair
when i enter i say "hello there"
i survived order 66
i rise up and resist
i ball up my fists
and fight evil sith
when people need help i assist
you may not know me
but my name's kenobi
that crazy wizard of lore
don't you even dare
i'll always fight fair
when i enter i say "hello there"
the jundland wastes are my home
i just want to be left alone
i'm here for my duty
got no time for booty
a ronin forever i roam
you may not know me
but my name's kenobi
that crazy wizard of lore

we have a problem here
affecting those far and near
we've been so divided
wasting time on right and left
worrying about the views
of a wealthy select few
we have a problem here
but it's one that we all share
can't trust each other's point of view
not sure what we can do
maybe we can start anew
whether you vote for red or blue
because there's something on which we all agree
one truth that binds us across eternity
no matter where you live or when
there is nothing worse than
other people's children
progressive ideas, you don't want to hear
but admit it, conservative views are also kinda weird
let's find common ground
to build a new world now
let's use this mutual hate
before it's too late
because there's something on which we all agree
one truth that binds us across eternity
no matter where you live or when
there is nothing worse than
other people's children
no there is nothing worse
anywhere on planet earth
than other people's children

Not Crazy
02:19
|
|||
|
i'm not crazy
we don't that word here
i'm just a bit hazy
details are not very clear
i know your hurt but that's not an excuse
to let this all fade away
i guess it hurt too much for you to stay
i'm not crazy
i just don't regulate
i'm either lazy
or manic every day
i know your hurt but that's not an excuse
to let this all fade away
you can stay in place and still be the one who walked away
i'm might be crazy
i guess i'm not the best judge
i think you may see
when pushed i will not budge
i know your hurt but that's not an excuse
to let this all fade away
i guess i'll keep blaming myself for that day

don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
boom! i kick open the door to the backstage
no i'm not enraged it's time to get paid
working up that lace front so nice
you gotta look twice
"is that real?"
precisely!
i've been honing my skills, y'all, for real
skills that pay bills, yo, that's the deal
no frills, well, some frills do appeal
but i ain't trying to turn no heads with these wheels
it's practical
cause i gotta get to work
it's tactical
in case i got a fool to merc
i'm skeptical
that you bitches don't understand
no stress, no mess, nonetheless
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
first to arrive and last to leave you best believe
i be fixing everything from double wefts to weaves
just so you can achieve disbelief suspension
and don't even mention that i smell like weed
this shit stressful!
you don't want the wigstress doing this sober
might as well thrown in the towel
because it's over
no, bitch pick up my towel
or i'll strike that dome
with my fucking press comb
you don't wanna fuck around and find out
set it on low heat
'cause i'm gonna straighten you out
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
i'm not your wardrobe mistress
i'm that super-powered wig bitch
gonna slap you senseless
i'm not your wardrobe mistress
i'm that super-powered wig bitch
gonna slap you senseless
i'm not your wardrobe mistress
i'm that super-powered wig bitch
gonna slap you senseless
and you can't prevent this
no stress, no mess, nonetheless
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress
don't fuck with the wigstress

Dear Allan
02:33
|
|||
|
dear allan,
i’m writing to thank you for your guidance
during my teenage years i was troubled
hellbent on fairness and equity
you modeled for me
conscientiously, effectively and a little accidentally
that supremacy not empathy is the key to good therapy
dear allan,
my 10 year-old brother ran out the room
you dragged him back in kicking and screaming
you bent his arm behind
placed your knee on his spine, then said,
“misbehavior will not be tolerated.”
that day i learned that might makes right
life isn’t fair and i have to fight
with every weapon ethical and non-ethical
that i have at my disposal
the unconventional and indefensible
need to be acceptable in fact maybe commendable
but bad kids aren’t correctable
it’s regrettable but alas, allan,
you’re the professional
so i listened
and my mom clearly took your message to heart
she kept hitting us until we broke apart
then we got too big, and we hit back
but, hey, allan, you probably knew that
thank god for my dad who pulled me out of that
environment and breaking the cycle
you remember my dad right?
the guy you were hired to undermine
and malign
well, he’s fine
thanks for asking
dear allan,
i guess i just wanted to say,
i can’t believe you’re still working with kids

maybe this is the end they're talking about
maybe we already had a good run
maybe we're here for the briefest of moments
maybe we've had our fun
maybe
we're all just variants
moving along… singing a song… hitting the bong
while celestial bodies
fight for their chance to belong
we're all just variants
hoping that we… will get to see… something we need
while insurmountable odds
stack up against the sea
maybe we know what we should do to find our peace
maybe we're waiting to be born again
maybe we're here for the briefest of moments
maybe we've had our chance
maybe
we're all just variants
moving along… singing a song… hitting the bong
while celestial bodies
fight for their chance to belong
we're all just variants
hoping that we… will get to see… something we need
while insurmountable odds
stack up against the sea
we're all just variants
yeah
we're all just variants

it's going downhill fast
and i can't stop it now
we're only gonna stop
when this thing hits the ground
we're going downhill fast

when the worst has your throat
i don't want you
to be lonely
i just want to
be your only
for all time
it's going downhill fast
and i can't stop it now

i want to be the most
but i keep falling short
it's going downhill fast
i shouldn't have said a thing
i'm never gonna stop
because you make me sing
we're going downhill fast
and i like it the most
they say you'll be your best
when the worst has your throat
i don't want you
to be lonely

and i can't stop it now
we're only gonna slow
when this thing hits the ground

full fathom five thy father lies
of his bones are coral made
those are pearls that were his eyes
nothing of him that doth fade
but doth suffer a sea-change
into something rich and strange
sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell
ding dong
harke now i hear them
ding-dong bell

Salazar
02:25
|
|||
|
salazar was a sailing man
he sailed out from the western lands
he took to the sea to find his way
and make all the love that he can
treasure is nice and riches are keen
but the touch of a lover is way more supreme
with years of practice under his belt
there's no one he cannot please
with salazar none can compare
he fights and he can dance
no sailing mate nor maiden fair
would shun his love's advance
sirens may attempt to lure him
but his skills make them adore him
for pleasing them they let him go
so he may love again
his trouser serpent will appear
and make the people woo and cheer
no wench, or seaman, can refuse
the tip of his mighty spear
with salazar none can compare
he fights and he can dance
no sailing mate nor maiden fair
would shun his love's advance
oh, salazar none can compare
he fights and he can dance
no sailing mate nor maiden fair
would shun his love's advance

Towers of Night
05:28
|
|||
|
dawn peeps over the highlands
on the grass graze flocks of sheep
but on the hills are towers.
and the shadows they cast are deep.
and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.
noon is bright on the highlands
sheep bleat at the sun
but shadows of towers deepen
for soon the day is done.
and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.
dusk creeps over the highlands
the sheep they run for home
the last of the light is fading
now the coming of the gloom.
and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.
the highlands are drenched in darkness
the mores glimmer under moon
the stars are cold and distant
the morning does not come soon.
and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.
a cold dark rest for their final remains
a place on high for their bones washed by rains
the sins of their life will linger long after death
with the last hope
with a final breath
and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.

The Line

where did i come from?
who am i to understand?
is this your infinite plan?
i don't think you thought it through
i don't know what else to do
i don't think i trust you
waiting by the open door
smile vacant, heart impure
i believe that i was meant for more
don't repeat a single word
of the prophecy you heard
whisper nothing of what you suffered
time is speeding up
washing hands that are corrupt
water drying in your cup
it's so hard to draw the line
i prefer the ugly jagged kind
they know me best
across my chest
left. right? left. right? left. right? left. right?
left. right? left. right? left. right? left. right?
left. right? left. right? left. right? left. right.

Quit

maybe it's time for me to quit
maybe i'm just tired of all this bullshit
maybe i can try again
never want to cry again
i don't want to have to throw a fit
maybe it's time for me to quit
maybe i just believe that i'm legit
maybe i can reach the core
instead of walking out the door
it's hard for me to stay when i commit
maybe it's time for me to quit
maybe i've said all i had to transmit
maybe we can start anew
with a different point of view
it changes every time i take a hit
maybe it's time for me to quit
maybe i've been falling down a deep dark pit
maybe i can turn around
find a piece of solid ground
i just can't keep chomping at the bit
maybe it's time for me to quit
maybe i've confessed all that i had to admit
maybe i can fall apart
and build up with a bigger heart
no, it's best if i just fucking quit

physically fascinating
mentally masquerading
sleeping in class from baking
pumping the gas no braking
giving into my baiting
working is too frustrating
weak is on par with hated
feelings are antiquated
shooting the star, invaded
hitting the bar with david
hoping you feel persuaded
leaving it out we trading
wondering if we'll make it
loving the car, we'll take it
endings are all heartbreaking
spitting the truth no faking
time is evaporating
life is exasperating
making me feel outdated
missing you but it's fading

who am i?
where have i been?
it's been only dark inside my head
since the day

all i see before me is an endless
tapestry of
stars and mystery
i must go alone
but you're always here with me
who am i?
why did i wait?
i've been fighting this regret all my days
wishing i
had found my courage sooner on
to take this opportunity
an endless
tapestry of
stars and mystery
i must go alone
but you're always here with me
no matter how long
at least we're here now
at least we're here now
no matter how long
at least we're here now

i shall no more to sea, to sea,

i shall no more to sea, to sea,
here shall i die ashore
the master, the swabber, the boatswain, and i,
the gunner and his mate
loved mall, meg, and marian, and margery,
but none of us cared for kate;
for she had a tongue with a tang,
would cry to a sailor, 'go hang!'
she loved not the savour of tar nor of pitch,
yet a tailor might scratch her where'er she did itch:
then to sea, boys, and let her go hang!
i shall no more to sea, to sea,
here shall i die ashore
i shall no more to sea, to sea,

as soon as we finish
brian's fucking song
we're looking back at all the songs-a-day may
(huh?)
it's like attorneys general so they say
(makes sense)
we've got a formula and we never stray
like an improv troupe we're lame in that way
(i never thought of that)
time to move on and bring making albums back
we've gotten tired of just being a hack
(damn right)
so this is it, for real this time
just one more chorus and our plans will align
if brian wants a song
he gets a fucking song
but this is the last time
we're singing along
song-a-day may
is finally gone
we've been there, we've done that
a new day has dawned
no more song-a-day may
no more song-a-day may
no more song-a-day may
because we'll be busy next may

hush now don't you say a thing
i've been waiting weeks to say
what i need to say
i don't understand how someone like you
winds up with a fool like me
i know i want to practice gratitude
every day
i'm thankful you chose me
and i won't drift away
you don't need an excuse to hold my hand
you don't need an excuse to hold me
i need
i need
i need
if i had to do it all once more
i'd take every single step
if it meant i'd be at your door
at the end
i would do it all again
you don't need an excuse to hold my hand
you don't need an excuse to hold me
to hold my hand
to hold my hand
because i love you
yes i do
i love you
yes i do
we don't need an excuse to love ourselves
no
we won't need an excuse to let the love shine in
i want you
and i need you
i won't judge you
i just love you
i don't need an excuse to let go
no
i don't need an excuse to let go
and i wrote this song for you
so let's go
here's the part that you didn't see
i'm behind you waiting patiently
i'm down on one knee
asking you
"will you marry me?"
