Slither


Hey (x3)
When you look you see right through me,
cut the rope, I fell to my knees,
born and broken every single time,
always keep me under finger,
that's the spot where you run to me,
might see some type of pleasure in my mind,

yeah, here comes the water,
it comes to wash away the sins of you and I,
this time you'll see, hey (x3)

when you seek me, you'll destroy me,
rape my mind and smell the poppies,
born and bloodied every single time,
always keep me under finger,
that's the spot where you might linger,
might see some type of pleasure in my mind,

yeah, here comes the water,
it comes to wash away the sins of you and I,
this time you'll see, like holy water,
it only burns you faster than you'd ever dry,
this time with me,

when you look you see right through me,
cut the rope, I fell to my knees,
born and bloody every single time,

yeah, here comes the water,
it comes to wash away the sins of you and I,
this time you'll see, like holy water,
it only burns you faster than you'd ever dry,
this time with me, hey(x3)

Set Me Free

Set Me Free


You operate and motivate on synthetic fuel.
You're mother nature and an atom bomb.
As long as you're kept full of pretty bodies.
Your little secret will be safe with me.

Around again insane again, it comes again and sets me free.

So set me free, set me free cuz I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free.


You're kept alive and polarized with one thing in mind.
Metabolize everything that you see.
But now and then or a little later
Now I'm gonna take you down with me.

Around again insane again, she comes again and sets me free


So set me free, set me free cuz I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
So set me free, set me free cuz I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free


So take me down, take me down, down, down, down
Take me down, take me down
So take me down, take me down, down, down, down
Take me down, take me down

So set me free, set me free cuz I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
Set me free, set me free cuz I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
So set me free, set me free cuz I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free

So set me free, set me free cuz I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free

Money

Money


Money, get away.
Get a good job with good pay and you're okay.
Money, it's a gas.
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think I'll buy me a football team.

Money, get back.
I'm all right Jack keep your hands off of my stack.
Money, it's a hit.
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit.
I'm in the high-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet.

Money, it's a crime.
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie.
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today.
But if you ask for a raise it's no surprise that they're
giving none away.

"HuHuh! I was in the right!"
"Yes, absolutely in the right!"
"I certainly was in the right!"
"You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a
bruising!"
"Yeah!"
"Why does anyone do anything?"
"I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!"
"I was just telling him, he couldn't get into number 2. He was asking
why he wasn't coming up on freely, after I was yelling and
screaming and telling him why he wasn't coming up on freely.
It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out"

You got no right

You got no right


I fell through the ice
She won't be coming back too soon
It never wins to lie
She said you'll never have no rights

I've took it farther on the outside
I've took it nearly to the brink
And if you've seen me on the outside
You would have barely seen me breathe

Funny right here I find myself
Inside a paper cup
Without a warning or a reason it's a treason
With no answer

You got no right
To keep me waiting here
You got no right
To keep the pain in here
That holds the crown

And if I fall apart on the outside (You really don't believe me)
And if I take it to the brink
And if I fall apart on the outside / (You really don't believe me)
You would have barely seen me breathe

And if I meet you out tonight
Will you be loving me forever
It's always over after the night
It's always colder after the night
I broke through the ice
She won't be coming back again
It's been a year and a night

Sucker train blues

Sucker train blues


Hands are shakin got your finger on the trigger
Jesus ain't complainin gonna figure it out
Somebody raped my tapeworm abortion
Come on motherfuckers and deliver the cow

Brain and body melting while there's roaches multiplying
It's the alien infection it's the coming of Christ
All these sentimental halos and these consequential angels
When I'm runnin with the devil don't deliver the fight

Don't look at me now
Fell too fast your wings won't hold
Don't look at me now
Fell too fast your wings won't hold

Yeah and when I want to
Yeah I will find you
Yeah and when I want to
Yeah I will blind you

Brains are frying while the kings and queens are dying
Satan won the race and the miracle mile
Somebody raped my tapeworm abortion
Come on mothertuckers and deliver the cow
It's all over me now
Let me go, let me go, let me go
What's come over me now
Let me go, let me go, let me go
It's all over me now
Let me go, let me go, let me go
What's come over me now

Johnny sat down beside the old oak tree
Cut off his hand what did he see
All of the animals are dead
The rats have crawled through his house and out through their head
One of them ate a hole in the sky
To believe this would be a fate worse than dying

Headspace

Headspace


Me
I'm a man
Who is trudging
Best I can
Through a minefield
Built to blast
Can I make it
Will I last

Free my mind, levitate
Don't let any of those fuckers in my headspace

Please
Let me be
No more questions
No more needs
You're the cancer
You're the leech
Sent to bleed me
Of disease

Free my mind, levitate
Don't let any of those fuckers in my headspace
Let me go my own way
Burn the rest of them that try to keep me enchained

Living taking chances
Isn't all that it's meant to be
Dying with your face on
A t-shirt isn't all that original

Me
I'm the man
Will I make it
Will I last

Loving The Alien

Loving The Alien


Sometimes I think I'm scared
Sometimes I know
I feel like making love
Sometimes I don't
I feel like letting go
Maybe not
I feel like giving up
Is all we got

Sometimes is all the time
And never means maybe
Sometimes is all the time
Maybe

And I'm moving on
And I'm moving on (Sometimes I feel alone)
And I'm moving on
And I'm moving on

Sometimes I make believe
When we're alone
Machines have taken hold
Can you get me to a telephone
It's just the little things
You used to see
Am I still that man who makes you who you want to be

I never noticed
How lovely were the aliens
Lovely were the aliens
I never noticed
Lovely were the aliens
Lovely were the aliens

Fall to pieces

Fall to pieces


It's been a long year
Since you've been gone
I've been alone here
I've grown old
I fall to pieces, I'm falling
Fell to pieces and I'm still falling

Every time I'm falling down
All alone I fall to pieces

I keep a journal of memories
I'm feeling lonely, I can't breathe
I fall to pieces, I'm falling
Fell to pieces and I'm still falling

All the years I've tried
With more to go
Will the memories die
I'm waiting
Will I find you
Can I find you
We're falling down
I'm falling

Illegal I Song

Illegal I Song


One fine day
I'll settle down
When you bloody me
I ran aground
With my broken face
And fisticuff
Fuck the rest and
All their stuff

I - Don't - Anymore
I - Don't - Anymore

Just look and you'll
See me
Lying there
Lying there

Just look and you'll
See me
Lying there
Lying

Another way
A battle ground
A ready teller whore
Who makes no sound
Keep the money bitch
Keep the stuff
Fly around the world
And keep it up

I - Don't - Anymore
I - Don't - Anymore

It's killing time on the streets
All hate Sunday

Superhuman

Superhuman


I'm a superman
I wanna be your superman
I'm a superman
I wanna be your superman

What you get is a crash course to be a man
But a man is a destination never known
Sometimes dressed up like a red hot lady in pumps
Don't think she can get enough

Always feel like she's runnin on a hamster wheel
Getting high, crashing cars and makin mistakes
Keepin her face packed with cocaine
Her face is numb your faith is gone

I'm travelin on now
I'm makin plans now

Cocaine
Alcohol
Lady-lay
Withdrawal

Keep it comin in a world that's blown up wild
Keep it comin in a world that's bred her style
We're all runnin from the goose she's high on cocaine
There's a noose swimmin right between her legs to her brain

We're all in need of a superhuman woman now
We're all in need of a superhuman woman now
So rodeo, rodeo, rodeo, rodeo
Throw the rope around her neck and get the show on the road

What's she thinking
She'll never get enough
