Oh I’m lying on the side of my bed Listening to the voices in my head Trying to figure out what they said I listen to the voices in my head Walking down a street or lying in bed Oh, do I have an option (No you don’t) I pull out my phone and start to sing A couple of words and a couple of things That sound like <<<>> CHORUS They come to me just about everywhere I could say “shhh” but they don’t care My babies out in motion I got a lot of things to say I swear So many I hide and so many I spare Still, I don’t like instrumentals CHORUS They’re never gonna stop I pray What would I be if I wasn’t this way I’m gonna get em out Any which way I can That’s the plan (2) CHORUS

I’m sick and tired of all your little queries in the day Sometimes I wish you would just go away I feel a little chill coming over me today So just stay away, just stay away I’m running out of things to say to pacify your rage Every other day it’s the same, it’s the same Oh how could you expect me to be on the same Page, page CHORUS I’ve already told you It’s going the way you want it to I’ve already told you It’s all arranged, what’s wrong with you? I’ve already told you, Must I really tell you again? I’ve already told you So stop, stop, go away I’m trying to get a little occupational Every little step of the way you butt in And if you’re gonna keep me bothered it’s a shame Its lame, this game I wouldn’t be admitting it on any other day But for today, you’re in my way It’s really just the only thing that isn’t all ok Taking the long way around just to say CHORUS No stay Quit talking that way, its ok It’s all going the way you want it to, So what is wrong with you? Must I tell you again? CHORUS

Concert piano, you’re bringing me down I don’t know how to play you I don’t know how to feel like I should I don’t know how to make you sound any good, could, Would you please? CHORUS Concert piano, you’re bringing me down (2) I wish I could remember The treble with the bass cleft, what? I couldn’t ever keep my hands straight on you CHORUS I think I’m gonna stay with you, Technology … there’s nothing wrong with that I’m gonna have to slave for you My symphony I could learn to play you Now where’s the fun in that? When I can just play you, thanks to multi-track Just like that Concert piano, I’ve figured you out (2)

Consuella 04:02
Making up, is it all it seems to be Wasting up, is it all it needs to be CHOCABLOCK Heading off on a rollercoaster Heading off on a roller coaster ride (2) You/You’ve gotta know (3) CHORUS Consuella Made it up, is it all it needs to be Wasted up, is it all it seems to be CHOCABLOCK I made it up, and its all it needs to be I waste it up, and its all it seems to be CHOCABLOCK

I walk an empty road Desperation in my voice I walk an open road If you follow it’s your choice Would you throw it away? I could imagine Your troubled times have gone I’ve only got my foot in the door It’s only just begun In the end we’ll have much more Would you throw it away? I could imagine You up on the mountains too A bird in hand is it worth too much to you CHORUS Don’t leave me behind and go Don’t leave me behind and walk right out on me Don’t leave me behind and go I know, its tempting you I take an awful lot But I can’t take anymore I’m taking what we got But I’d like to have much more Would you throw it away? I could imagine You up on the mountains too A bird in hand is it worth too much to you CHORUS Solo CHORUS

I woke up in a forest of doom (3) When I ate myself a shroom Traffic moves in the slowest lane My taxi feels like an aeroplane And I hate myself When I ate myself a shroom Wounded soldiers and burning flames My mind’s off playing battle games And I hate myself When I ate myself a shroom CHORUS The years gone past in my little life Staring down the barrel of a carving knife And I beat myself When I eat myself a shroom A macho, mal-nutritioned, overfed, wimp, clever fool I’m everything I am and absolutely nothing to I’m positively certain that I’d never do it again Eat a shroom CHORUS Cellophane something and marshmallows too A gathering of insects in the sky with Lucy, do you remember me? Lucy, sweet strange lady friend me Oh why oh why Did I have to try this? Don’t I know it better as I age? (1-2-3-28) High so high I swear I’d never try this Never, never But it’s too late ‘Coz I ate A shroom CHORUS (2)

Happy 03:39
I wanted to tell you The world as I see Is just as exciting As it’s made out to be I seek out your wisdom It seems only right ‘Coz I’ve found the meaning of life So come along for the ride CHORUS I’m happy The secret is simple All you need is belief Think positively, then only will you see That’s all you need from me The crossroads are many Take whichever you feel And then when you can see, just what you wanna be You’ll sing it just like me CHORUS There’s not much you gotta do Find a little something to hold on to You fix what you can and for what you cannot Just get on with what you do And enjoy it Like I do So contented And I’ll sing for you CHORUS

Taxi Song 04:19
Taxi Song Verse Repeater I don’t wanna drive (2) I don’t wanna get behind the wheel when I’m high I don’t wanna drive (2) I don’t wanna get behind the wheel when I can’t drive I’m at the bar and I’m having fun Drinks and friends abound I’d like to see ‘em here tomorrow For another round Who’s gonna drive me home When I’m eight drinks down I’m calling in a professional I won’t drive back from town CHORUS Mr. Taxi guy That’s what you’re here for (2) Mr. Taxi guy Coz I don’t wanna Drive Verse Repeater Drive me home Mr.Taxi guy Reach me safe and sound I’m tanking up on whatever I like And I’ll still be around Drive me home Mr.Taxi guy Reach me to my door My car will stay right where I left it And I won’t run over no poor CHORUS Verse Repeater CHORUS

We’re tough on tobacco You shouldn’t be We’re way too addicted To that sweet, sweet nicotine It’s hard to keep from it If you’re on it now But the many generations to come Need to give it up somehow I’m not going to lie to you It feels really good But that’s the point exactly It’s not something that should Why throw away lifetimes When we know it causes harm There are way better things to grow up north On tobacco farms CHORUS We’re tough on tobacco Tough on tobacco And what’s with all the other shit? They pack into a cigarette … Tar I don’t wanna smoke no tar That’s to keep the leaks out when it rains too hard Speaking of rain, it’s hard to smoke out in the rain Just those few months of smoking less The minutes I have gained As people we’re stupid We latch on to a vice But if we kill the choice, then years from now We’ll have 1 less way to die It’s not cool to smoke you know That ship has long sailed So stop before you start And we won’t fail CHORUS Skip the addiction (3) We were not that smart Skip the addiction (3) Stop before you start CHORUS

Women come in different shapes and sizes, When you see ‘em, your instrument rises Up and soars Where this goes you don’t know You’d like to probe but is it worth deciding, In a second you could be up and riding Off into oblivion You are back to being a simian CHORUS You don’t wait till the night’s out When the night’s out you will know Had your fun in the years you gone riding A lot of conquests that fill up your pride and Yet you are alone Sitting home and watching porn Question this, have you ever looked around you The angel ones that you want all avoid you You gotta ask yourself Is it me or something else? CHORUS Hey, keep the snake in your trousers Till you’ve spent a little while Trying to read each other’s styles Hey, try a conversation this time Does everybody like it in the dark? CHORUS
