"Your Racist Friend"

"Your Racist Friend"


This is where the party ends
I can't stand here listening to you
And your racist friend
I know politics bore you
But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
And your racist friend

It was the loveliest party that I've ever attended
If anything was broken I'm sure it could be mended
My head can't tolerate this bobbing and pretending
Listen to some bullet-head and the madness that he's saying

This is where the party ends
I'll just sit here wondering how you
Can stand by your racist friend
I know politics bore you
But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
You and your racist friend

This is where the party ends
I can't stand here listening to you
And your racist friend
I know politics bore you
But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
And your racist friend

Out from the kitchen to the bedroom to the hallway
Your friend apologizes, he could see it my way
He let the contents of the bottle do the thinking
Can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding

This is where the party ends
I can't stand here listening to you
And your racist friend
I know politics bore you
But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
And your racist friend

"Youth Culture Killed My Dog"

"Youth Culture Killed My Dog"


Youth culture (youth culture)
Youth culture (youth culture)
Youth culture (youth culture)
Youth culture (youth culture)

Youth culture killed my dog
And I don't think it's fair (I don't think it's fair)
And his suicide can be justified
By the tastemakers, how they cried and cried and so

Bacharach and David used to write his favorite songs
Never, never, never would he worry, he'd just run and fetch the ball
But the night lights and my dog's life aren't exactly one and the same

Youth culture killed my dog
And I don't think it's fair (I don't think it's fair)
And the judgement made in the city of hate
Just broke his spirit so

Bacharach and David used to write his favorite songs
Never, never, never would he worry, he'd just run and fetch the ball
But the hiphop and the white funk just blew away my puppy's mind

I don't understand what you did to my dog
And I don't understand what you did to my dog
I don't understand what you did to my dog
I don't understand what you did to my dog

Youth culture killed my dog (Youth culture killed my dog)
And I don't think it's fair (I don't think it's fair)
And his suicide can be justified
By the tastemakers, how they cried and cried and so

Youth culture (youth culture)
Youth culture (youth culture)
Broke his spirit so (broke his spirit so)
Broke his spirit so
Youth culture (youth culture)
(youth culture)
Youth culture (youth culture)
(youth culture)
Broke his spirit so (broke his spirit so)
Broke his spirit so

"Zeroes"

"Zeroes"


Zeroes! (Zeroes!)
Zeroes mean so much
Zeroes! (Zeroes!)
Zeroes mean so much

In numbers big (one million) to small (one millionth)
And the number that means nothing at all (the number zero)

Zeroes! (Zeroes!)
Zeroes mean so much
Zeroes! (Zeroes!)
Zeroes mean so much

In numbers big (ten, one hundred, one thousand)
And numbers small (one tenth, one one-hundredth, one one-thousandth)
And the number that means nothing at all (the number zero)

One definition of zero
Is the mathematical value
Between positive and negative values

Zeroes! (Zeroes!)
Zeroes mean so much

In numbers big (one million) to small (one millionth)
And the number that means nothing at all (the number zero)

What do you think-what do you make out of that recording?
I don't know, Gloria, I just-
Some kind of singing. They sound like all kinds of people, right?
Yeah.
And then it says "Another child is born in India every time you call this number," right?
Yeah, right.
Does that make any sense to you?
No, it doesn't make no sense to me.
And the guy that spoke-I don't know who he is.
Yeah.
But that-it doesn't sound like no answering machine, right?
No, it ain't an answering machine because they're not saying anything, they're just-
But what does he get-how does he make money on this?
Whatever he's advertising in the paper, that's the part that don't make no sense.
Oh, he's advertising this in the paper you saw it.
In the Village Voice, yeah. They got-that's where the Kiss Clinic, but they give you another number if you wanna join it.
And I got "Intellectuals meet with other intellectuals."
Yeah.
"Speak another language."
Yeah. Oh.
They meet at La Mai-La Maisonette restaurant. They give you the price.
Then they give you another number to call if you're interested.
This guy, all you get is this here recording, but I don't see how he makes money.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what I'm saying? It's just-they got the craziest things in that paper.
Yeah.
They come over with all-they got the craziest things.
But this one here- "There Must Be Giants," it's called.
And it says, "Call machine," and they got the phone number.
Yeah.
But what kind of money does he make? It don't make no sense. Well, he don't make any money, right?
No.
But, then-then he's a nut, right? Do you see-do you see any sense to that? "There May Be Giants?"
That re-that recording I have on. The new one. Did you hear it? I changed it.
I took off the intellectuals. I put on There May Be Giants.
What?
Who's They May Be Giants?
What are you talking about?
That's what's on my-the phone, There May Be-argh, well I can't explain it.
'Cause I don't know what it is. Look in the paper, don't blame me if the guy's a nut.
