Four Letter Word There's a man who lives next door to a conversation His family is a daughter, who lives in fear of words In their perfect neighbourhood made of moulded plastic Her fantasies are published in a pink Bible Her daddy swears his love is good A cold, complacent four letter word And as the conversation dies Why does he claim, "But, I… I need you. I'm alone."? And he promises her more than some conversation The words are barely spoken before they are lost Does it mean that there's no God? Does that make it better? Is anyone still listening? Where's her pink Jesus? Her daddy swears his love is good A cold, complacent four letter word And as the conversation dies Why does he claim, "But, I… I need you. I'm alone."? Love's not an invitation for your decrepit hands Touch me, I'll break your fingers with my loving kiss Her daddy swears his love is good A cold, complacent four letter word And as the conversation dies Why does he claim, "But, I… I need you. I'm alone."? Her daddy swears his love is good In harsh, abrasive eyes A tear reflects a small pink child He claims, "I… I need you. I'm alone." Her daddy swears is love is good.

Guerilla Pacifism Split my skin open wide Tear the sinews and veins Drain the blood, fill the safe Black and cold Crude, unclean Rip the bone from its joint In its place leave a hole Putrid flesh, rising steam Packaged meat Crude, unclean With your God at hand False self confidence Running, running out Fall in line, your pacifist debut! (Fall in line with you) There's a Godless man Fearing God again Running, running out Fall in line, your pacifist debut! (Fall in line with you) Place my seed in the earth Grow a tree bearing fruit Replicate my disease Spread the truth Crude, unclean Make me reap what I sow Rip this heart from its soul Place this head on a spit Spin it 'round Crude, unclean With your God at hand False self confidence Running, running out Fall in line, your pacifist debut! (Fall in line with you) There's a Godless man Fearing God again Running, running out Fall in line, your pacifist debut! (Fall in line with you)

Pythagorean 04:17
It’s just another day in mid September It’s just another movie that I’ve seen He sits alone cold, scared in the darkness Just like me I see you waiting, I see you standing there Just concentrating on how your life isn’t fair But you… You seem so different from me And you… You claim that we cannot see it It’s just another song for the broken hearted It’s just another song for the weak inside It’s just another song for the broken hearted …Just like me. I see you waiting, I see you standing there Just concentrating on how your life isn’t fair But you… You seem so different from me And you… You claim that we cannot see it Would you give it away if its all you’d ever had? Should you give it away if its all you’d ever had? Well, I gave it away ‘cause that’s all I’ve ever had. I see you waiting, I see you standing there Just concentrating on how your life isn’t fair But you… You seem so different from me And you… You claim that we cannot see it I stand there waiting, my reflection’s all that is there. I’m just concentrating on how my life isn’t fair. But you… You don’t seem so different from me. And you… You said that we cannot see it. I know that we cannot see it. I know that we cannot see it.

1949 Hail the poor and sick The ones who've lost their dreams and savings On to days of trendy, democratic wastelands Come tomorrow, there's another hundred Begging, pleading Oh, lately, how society has changed Plastic credit for our plastic souls Indebted addicts Yuletide funding for the recent batch of hopeless Godforsaken by the collars of their Chinese golf tees Oh, lately, how society has changed Pure equity denial Take nothing personal Pure equity denial Or maybe, there's just more to life than this… Hail the poor and sick The ones who've lost their dreams and savings Onto days of trendy, democratic wastelands Come tomorrow, there's another hundred Begging, pleading Oh, lately, how society has changed Plastic credit for our plastic souls Indebted addicts Yuletide funding for the reaching batch of homeless Godforsaken by the collars of their Chinese golf tees Oh, lately, how society has changed Pure equity denial Take nothing personal Pure equity denial Or maybe, there's just more to life than this… Pure equity denial Take nothing personal Pure equity denial Or maybe, there's just more to life than being hard up Or maybe, there's just more to life than being...

We're on the radio Sing along to every single word you know Why does it always have to be the ones Who'd die for Velvet Elvis' robes Can't you see we're on the radio?

Touch, Taste, Trip You make me feel like a bottle Floating up against the waves Lost out at sea I'm adrift here Waiting for the surf to break Push my head down, down Passed the roots in the ground And cover every speck of me With your trees and your towns Uh oh, it seems I've reaped what I've sown Now I'm growing up to be estranged So unique and odd Can I be your touch, and your taste, and your sullen eyes? So serene and calm Can I be your sickness and pain?

The Cure 03:30
The Cure Hello and good morning I love you too You haven't been sleeping? It must be this room You know, I've been praying I'm not sure to who But, I tell them you're dying And ask them for the words to say to you No more abuse The cure isn't science No more abuse The cancer is enough I think you could hold me But, I'm not sure how This bed is so awkward These tubes tie you down Well, I guess I'll be leaving I'll see you real soon I hope you feel better So I can kiss you No more abuse The cure isn't science No more abuse The cancer is enough

Hey! it's a Desert! Well it seems to me that there's plenty left of nothing more to say Useless beats and I, IV, V chords Pentatonic rape Well Sgt. Pepper's come and gone And left here in his wake? Capt. Default's Three Door Theory of a Nickel's Grace And I said, "Hey, it's a desert. Well, there's so few things that I remember, But, I ain't ever wrong." Spoon fed ears ingest the songs the deejay's paid to play In front row seats and plastic albums Wrapped in cellophane Stupid sells and stupid buys There's nothing more to say So, let's just see here what we've got... Are you ready to learn?
