Waiting For The Snow

Black culture is bankrupt
White folks lost their spine
Muslims want to kill us all
and you're no friend of mine.

You're not my friend and that is fine
Black girls are talking about it, baby
A different world, another time.

There's ships in the night
There's signs in the sky
There's some bottomless holes out there
and you're no friend of mine.

You're not my friend and that is fine
Black girls are talking about it, maybe
A different world, another time.

I'm sitting here and I'm waiting for the snow
That's no metaphor
That's something you will never know
Something you'll never know.

You're not my friend and that is fine
Black girls are talking about it, baby
A different world, another time.

Monkeys are pushing buttons
Strippers are marking time
Info Babe is smiling at me
Honey, you're friend of mine.

Welcome To The New Dark Ages

Pagan gods, voodoo news
Hip hop grannies with the cheap tattoos
Weasel poll, pajama troll
Paint by number, that's the plot of the show.

Fools rush in, worlds collide
Culture's a weapon, mass suicide
Disney drone global view
Foodie porn in stiletto shoes.

Protest 'bot, vested view
Dogma prigs and the world that they choose
Data chaff, Flame War II
Who's gonna be the smartest man in the room?

Lights are dim, hysteria rages
Welcome, honey, to the true Dark Ages.

Yucksters swoon, hip radio
We're all sharing so you can't say No
Turn it off, get rebred
All that crap gets inside your head
Selfie souls, people doze
Emperor is wearing new designer clothes.

Why it's so dim, hysteria rages
Welcome, honey, to the true Dark Ages
Lights are dim, hysteria rages
Welcome, honey, to the true Dark Ages.

Free to speak, just comply
Witch Finder heresies multiply
Galileo, "No warming yet"
Pope in a panic says, "I'll have his neck!"

Lights are dim, historia rages
Welcome, honey, to the true Dark Ages.

Sonic Reducer

I don't need anyone
Don't need no mom and dad
Don't need no pretty face
Don't need no human race
I've got some news for you
Don't even need you, too.

I've got my dull machine
Got my electronic dream
Sonic Reducer Ain't no loser.

People out on the street
they don't know who I am
I watch them from my room
They just pass me by
I'm not just anyone
I'm not just anyone.

I've got my dull machine
Got my electronic dream
Sonic Reducer
Ain't no loser.

I'll be a pharaoh soon
Rule from some golden tomb
Things will be different then
The sun will rise for me
Then I'll be ten feet tall
You'll be nothing at all.

I've got my dull machine
Got my electronic dream
Sonic Reducer
Ain't no loser.

I Keep A File On You

I have a pigeon hole soul
A good piece of furniture
stained black and blue
I've got a slot for you.

I have a rock and roll soul
Hard times on the radio
but I'd love you to know
I've got some time for you.

I have a Fortean soul
The full blown rodeo
including clowns that glow
I keep a file on you.

Nugefinger

Does the Daddio see her?
Let the Daddio see her.

Each time I see her
she fractures the room
If I try to deceive her
she lowers the boom.

Spooky

I've got a girl named K
She's got some funny kinds of ways
Her eyes are blue
Her scars are shiny
She reads the news
and her eyes get tiny.

Yeah, it's spooky
It's creepy
It's spooky how I love her so.

I've got a girl named K
Know what? I don't know what to say
First time I see her
she's singing with the radio
Such a pile of crap, I say
There's no way you oughta about know about that.

It's spooky
You know it's kind of weird
It's spooky how I love her so.

I've got a girl, a girl named K
I don't know there's all that much to say
We got it pretty good
Parts are aligning
In the fissures of the gloom
there's a whole lot of reassigning going on.

Yeah, it's kinda spooky
Uh, actually kind of creepy
It's kind of spooky how I love her so.

I've got a girl, a girl named K
I'm gonna love her come what may
I say, I don't need you
I don't even want you
She says, Honey,
that's how I'm gonna keep you.

It's kinda spooky
You know it's kinda queer
It's sorta spooky how I love her so.

Will she dream about me even when I am gone?

Coopy (Schrödinger's Refrigerator)

Whatcha got in your refrigerator?
I'm a foot fall man
I'm a Alligator
I got no real plans
I'm a denominator
I'm a hound in a hell
I'm a separator.

You're the best thing that I never had
That's a whole lot of nothing and it's going bad
The old man crows
That's the devil that you know.

If there really is nothing
Nothing left to see
I'm gonna climb back down
off the itchy tree.

Don't it sound like living
On the top of a bubble?
As good as my word is
That's nothing but trouble.

The old man crows
That's the devil that you know
Now the object here is never to name it
Where the mystery resides is where it's remaining.

That's the devil that you know.

Whatcha got in your refrigerator?
I don't look inside
I'm no interrogator
That's a hand on the handle
I'm a terminator
I will see you later
I'm a Alligator.

Not look inside.

Hawk Full Of Soul

It's a trick of the heart
Just to get what it wants
Yet it's harder to know
what I know that I know.

My heart is at sea
My head is a stone
In the face of a storm
another Jonah is thrown.

It's the stupidest things
that will humble a man
Then someone will say
that I am what I am.

Won't you bring me more lies?
Won't you be good to me?
I will cling unto thee
Unto thee unto thee.

It's like a bird of prey
Shadows on the sun
If I let it fly
How the blood will run.

Read It And Weep

I talked to my friends
You know they told me again
That you'd just treat me bad
That you'd just make me sad

Listen to you and all your sweet lies
If I'd listened to them you know well I'd never cry
They told me again, again and again

Well, I came by your place
Late last night
Yeah, I saw you kiss him
He held you so tight

Listen to you and all your sweet lies
If I'd listened to them you know well I'd never cry
Yeah they told me again, oh again and again
You know they told me again, I should have listened to them
Like this

Well this is goodbye girl
No more will I cry
No I won't hang around
I won't be your clown
(uh-uh)

Listened to them and now I told you goodbye
You can read it and weep, girl
It's your turn to cry
They told me again, oh, again and again
You know they told me again and I listened to them
(ha ha ha)

Parking Lot At The Rainbow's End

I'll see you at the Rainbow's End
I'm gonna be in the parking lot
I'll see you at the Rainbow's End
I'm gonna be the one changing tires
I'm gonna be the one changing the tires for you.

I'll see you at the Rainbow's End
I won't be there very long
I'll see you at the Rainbow's End
I don't have the time to hang around
I don't have the time to wait for you very much longer.
