Legalese 03:25
open for business, you've got no orders to fill - why? what's the point, what's the point? when it's all gonna end? what's the point, what's the point? can't you just be my friend? dirty fight, thrown for sleight, just to show me you can got no cred cause you said it's what makes you a man turn me down, trade me down, like i'm some fucking whore on my feet fully clothed was i all just a bore? i don't cry in the store anymore, i don't die in line you won't melt my self decision, you are not the prize

plastique loaded in the backseat duded up and friendly digging on the bar scene falling at my feet these bois think they should own the one thing all the queer has made me choosing what i'm wearing taking off my makeup i'm hitting up their scene listen up drag dreams aren't just made for switch scene i can fake my gender just as much a bender even dressed as me even dressed as she hang back big man you don't even see who you want to be step back big man you don't even keep the point you made for me my face is hanging up some girl queen practicing at prom pointing out the wrong making good by me male hits just below my radar hoping kings would jump far to practice what they preach instead of trying to teach hang back big man you don't even see who we're gonna be step back big man you don't even keep the point you made for me 19th and lexington the vortex of the trap we're in 19th and lexington the door was closed before open 19th and lexington where men will act just like real men so how 'bout instead of ruling queens out see it as a turnabout that circles back to you that started once with you emulate your truth shake hands it starts with you

Milk Money 04:07
i know you think you're bigger and you think that makes you badder but you're smaller where it matters and i'm packin' i'm bringing lotsa sugar cause my daddy pays me better and my chicks might be much fatter still the odds are stackin' stick your name real deep inside my mouth you're the kinda greed that i spit out got no need for what you're all about put your money where your mouth is, did you get enough allowance? yeah a bully's just a bitch cause you're easy 'nuff to flip i'm making change you lost your name i'm richy rich i've seen you round the way and i've been checking out your play you slip and slide and shift and drop you never stay no matter, it's better, not the style we like to ride it's creepy, conceited, better watch what comes back at your eye hang on you just reversed don't run that game i'll throw my curse i got you nailed i saw you first and you're crackin' my dykes will do me solid at your back and make you follow chase your tail until you swallow that the fact is... and now the rules are busted rearranged and reconstructed little push i pushed to shovin' til you went south you can take your stupid guns and destroy the wicked hum of the jealous ugly gums in your big mouth you're the skirt that winds up in the dirt put your face down eat this side of hurt

Idiot Light 04:24
fasten your fan belt in stride, check your hair for air pressure the dashboard it lies needy needy needy needy red green green red stop go I just might ride on the bald one; slide it in gear make it a template for the light bright shit I call fear i serve my own motor I break down the drear i'm not worth half of what I was when I drove me out of here I eye up the panel they meet my stare they blink, they flash me I just do my best to steer kelley can rate me but then so can lianne missy would give me a no pass go back pay me again to register your can the bank is my father; he is my john i'm hoping my interest won't turn me upside down in my optional charm

round it up, pack it in make it fit, if not me; why, him i lost the dress but brought it back cause best costume of the day can't be under key and lock might have a prom night, might be a mom in a "b" horror flick with cannibal dreams they're all here i can see them they're all queer i can be them tourist mermaids, disco trannies ladies on the bowling team santa's helper's in a beehive birds in tutus boys are just as pretty in pink same tutu served a hatted cat well like a tall cool drink see through tightie-whitie peep show …and i forget the rest… (gonna dress you up in my love) but madonna's a whore they're all here i can see them they're all queer i can be them roll call role play roll call role play i can see them

uh oh uh oh uh oh uh oh oh me, a bottle and fresh horses murder central and second courses new chick on the block she looks familiar i don't think the more i look that i have ever seen her i won't name you, you won't blame me, i won't name you like fault can be measured like salt can be mustered i'm your hopeless romantic i'm your ugly no name tantric hope is faked different from state to state crossing out people she's forged as her date making it big time she's cracked the code adding new tour dates her show's on the road always on drill team never made cheer lost in the wash of colorfast bleach making a name by never a name homecoming court just stole from the queen finger pointing blasphemy blindly chanting small degrees pin the tail up on the ass changing out who wears the mask putting up our favorite play open call so clearly splayed and the proof and the proof and the proof ain't nothin' for free

spirograph, spinny craft laid to draft make sass make crass may kiss my trash mean machine, dig dug green ride round town made big shindig big wheel me down the first ride i found i made, i bound my chick she came in plastic tricks, they taught me well they made me sell my doll the fall of womankind dolly dolly blonde for folly circle fruit undo my made up world fashion plate, tracing hate rubbed raw grate her nerves her curves made bare berate top or skirt, her lines a flirt reminds the shirt you don't belong your sleeves too long the first shape i knew i came unglued he tied me down no space no round the face of fear it lies in square the circle came too late Perfect circles perfect circles perfect circles perfect circles

i'm slightly cold but neatly dressed i wear my teeth switched outside in my shrink is sucking dry my day i'm on time, most every sign points to bloody business strange light is burning, alva's turning under my desk i'm digging yearning for my couch turned upside down which way? upside down i'm actually digging my own grave monsters cheap thrills maniacs permed frills fake teeth bought cheap hide me hide me i'm a vampire, i'm a vampire i'm nutricious, i'm delicious i'm a vampire, i'm a vampire peter loew, peter loew how low can you go, how low can you go
9.
politics come to me, i don't seek them out ask me what i think of them i'll lazy spit it out i still don't like the white man, i don't support porn america's corruption is obvious and worn i favor dykes and faggots, i also like the jews i don't support the bible, i do support your use i love to drink vodka, you'll find me lots in bars i don't believe in stripping, i have to be a star so socially activist so so didn't ask for it i like greg kinnear, identify as queer imbibing beer, reviving fear so socially activist i'm brushing my teeth from a slip of the tongue i'm making my bed like it's ever undone ran the miracle mile in just under seven drank nearly my weight in unattached women i voted today mostly because it's up at the funeral parlour jewish low budge totally cool to stand where they laid and hope for a peek rather than change politics are dead to me the white man sold the deed the news is not so hot today it's frothy wet with greed socially i'm immature, i'm rank and vile at best but i'm not going out now for diva girl check list i don't rely on factoids, the balance isn't checked i uphold vigilantes i'm banking on their brass i loathe the shit decisions both church and state reflect neither should be present and both should be redressed

180 degree deep relief push down where it hurts, then release kid proof so they claim, so it seems his judges prescribed, then redeemed and you drag me, and you drag me, and you drag me they're stocking the cabinet with poison lining the street with greed rolling out the thick slab carpet covering up what we've already freed a blind act of kindness a kind act of blindness and you drag me, and you drag me, and you drag me kind of blind, bang bang bang bang tracking your kids and tagging their heads tracking your kids and tagging their toes
11.
i'm gonna be a martyr if it kills me the neotony around me makes me spin emergency you're free you flee you're a lazy violent hero you weigh too much for me to gain now unthinkable i win, i'm drinkable again begin again again can end now unthinkable long tall drinkable you cut your nose to spite your face dead end i'm gonna kill the cash cow, shake those hands free you both made my list, you stink of games the spit the gack the smack the fact she's a painted wasted harlot you risk today and miss the fame she's gonna be a cokewhore if it sinks you the lie that you bought has taught you to bleed the sheet it's spread it's red you're fed she's a tiny ugly silence you will regret boredom your queen
12.
that night you chased the bees away colors ran into nothing yellow raised up a hell king the bend of the noise broke somewhere between you and me unaccustomed to terror large like silver screen horror tearing through the sound the barrier was barely there the safe return was inferior to the firm exterior of the nightmare tiny cat, in the cracks, we all ran for cover 'cause the odds were stacked you, and me, and we save the queen crown the king and kill the sting at once, worlds are shifting full moon, tides are turning signs, directions, started spinning the sound of our fear stopped right here, with you leading me rearranging the mirrors we once thought made us look clearer these tricks we've turned up on the stage you dressed me up with your bends and bass a hundred keys to the madness it seems you perceived a doorway beyond you and me throwing hands in together we ran like kids without heroes pushing forth through impossibility our perfect mess was superior to the lost decision of a no name we all ran for cover we all ran for cover we all ran guitar and programming – brandon glen
