Track Name: Sucker/Motherfucker
Television intermediary
Your decision, wary, never
Did you hear what they said?

Adolescent acquiescence
To the seduction function
I love it when you talk that way


Apprehend the trigger man
His crooked hand's so quick to fire
And he doesn't think to look where he aims

For every passing minute's sucker
There are twice as many motherfuckers
Born without a sense of shame
Track Name: I Wanna
I want to learn how to fly
And soar over all the trees
I want to learn how to dive
And swim in all the deepest seas

I want to learn how to climb
And reach all the highest peaks
I want to learn how to drive
And race at all the fastest speeds



I want to move to the city
With the cleanest air
With lots of parks and private schools
Where the teens all cut their hair

I want a house in the suburbs
With a garage for my two cars
With quiet 30-something
Neighbors who cut their yards



I want to clean up the streets
I want to be the one
Who cures all the diseases then
Rides off into the sun

I want to win all the gold
I want to be a perfect ten
I want to be the biggest, strongest
Fastest there's ever been
Track Name: Rinse & Repeat
Another day
I don't know what day it is
Another day
Waking up cold and sweating all covered in piss
And I've been sick

What a way
What a way to live
Every day
Waiting in the morning outside the corner liquor store
At 9:04

[Chorus]
Wet me, wet me down
Lather, lather me up
Rinse me off and then
I'm gonna do it all over again

Fuck that place
I didn't need that job anyway
And who are they
Trying to tell me what to do like I'm a little kid
Like I give a shit

Spare some change
I only need a little bit
What do you say?
Find it in your heart to lend a helping hand
To an innocent man
Track Name: Landlord Blues
Broken lock on my back door
Ceiling's falling to my floor
Guess I'll call up my landlord
But he'll just say he don't care no more

Says my rent's going up again
Gotta get the brand new Benz
How am I gonna keep my family fed?
With the landlord stealing all my bread


What else would you have me do,
But sit around singing landlord blues?


No grass left in my front yard
No space left to park my car
Guess the landlord don't think I'm too smart
Saying, "We all gotta do our part"

But it's the landlord's responsibility
No way I'm gonna work for free
It's not my fault, as far as I can see
If the place has gone to Hell, you can't blame me
Track Name: The King
All my robes are pinstriped and black
All my crowns are papers and plaques
My castle walls are higher than yours
My brand new chariot's Italian of course

I'm the king of the new machine
My prince, my princess, my beautiful queen
All this shit is worth more than millions
Everything is so god damn brilliant
Track Name: Asshole
I should've seen it coming
I shouldn't have looked in your eyes
I should know better
Than to start a fight

You know I'm sorry
There won't be a next time
I'm an asshole
I should've known you were right
Track Name: Got Struck
Got struck by an idea
I won't let it go to my head
I know I shouldn't see you
But I can't forget what you said

But now I'm bending over backwards
To remember all my manners now
Just so I don't make matters
Any worse than they are
But you're not making things any better

You wish your head was more than something you wore
You spill your drink and your dress on the floor
You won't call, I won't remember your name
I'm not a man but I need you anyway


Got struck by an idea
And I let it go to my head
You know I don't want to see you
But you can't forget what we did

And now we're bending over backwards
To remember all our manners now
Just so we don't matters
Any worse than they are
But they're not gonna get any better

I wish my head was something I had ignored
You were spilling your drink and your dress on the floor
You gave me call, I couldn't remember your name
I'm not a man but you need me anyway
Track Name: Untitled I
Instrumental
Track Name: Crown
I'm tucking in my shirt
I'm straightening my tie
Everything is fine

I'm staying late at work
I'm looking at the price
Everything is fine


Grounded by the rush
Getting kicked around
They took my crown

Mother, they broke my heart
Father, they beat me down
They took my crown
Track Name: Just Another Man
I've never been to the moon
And I'm never going
I thought that I was born to rule
But I'm just a civilian
Thought I'd be saving lives
But I'm just a patient
Thought I'd be chasing pop flies
But I'm in my seat behind the third baseman

Oh god damn
I think I'm just another man
Oh god damn
I think I'm just another man, just another...

I thought that I was the giver
But I'm just being given
I thought that I was the driver
But I'm just being driven
I thought that I was the actor
But I'm just part of the scene
Thought that I was the operator
But I'm just another fucking part of the machine

Oh god damn
I think I'm just another man
Oh god damn
I think I'm just another man, just another man
