The Morons Are Winning
There is a war on and all of the morons are winning, they are winning
year to year.
There is a war on and you're on the front lines grinning, you are
grinning ear to ear.
You lovers, you g-men descend on me slowly, we're approaching the
hottest of days
To not let things get to me I wish you could show me before I set
this thing ablaze.
The earth it is still it's the darkness that's spinning around me in
my tin foil helmet
A war for my will and the morons they're winning, me and my tin foil helmet
I've led the charge against all of their mind controllers
Blocking the signals transmitting through my back molars
Ooh, encircle me slowly (shut up, shut up), proceeding with caution, baby
Ooh, you want to control me (shut up, shut up), to concede in exhaustion, baby
Wearing the face of concern with your free medications
Stealing my thoughts and my top secret calculations
Ooh, I'd like to be free love (shut up, shut up), if the men in the
black cars let me
Ooh, and if you're not who you say love (shut up, shut up), may this
helmet of foil protect me
I've led the charge against all of their mind controllers
Blocking the signals transmitting through my back molars
Wearing the face of concern with your free medications
Stealing my thoughts and my top secret calculations
In your warming breath a swarming death, In your warming breath a
swarming death
In your warming breath a swarming death, In your warming breath a
swarming death.
There is a war on, and all of the morons are winning they are winning
year to year.
There is a war on, and you're on the front lines grinning, you are
grinning ear to ear, you are grinning ear to ear.
So Stupid So Smart
Towards your learning, you focused all of your desire when I was burning
Discussed the properties of fire, Does it occur to you now?
In the ashes all alone, that you scrambled for
All but water and the phone, all but water and the phone
You're so stupid, so smart, perfecting the science of breaking my heart
You're so stupid so smart, you're studying the physics of my falling apart.
The part that lets me,
That mechanism slumbers in a logic, soft and warm in the arms of numbers.
It's a clever mind that builds the bomb that builds the bomb
That sets it off that cries for mom that cries for mom
You're so stupid, so smart, perfecting the science of breaking my heart
You're so stupid so smart, you're studying the physics of my falling
apart, yeah
So very well read a lifetime there in books inside your head
Yet you read nothing in my looks, the bullet's coming, son
So calculate your loss, or run, write a report on ballistics when it's done
Trajectory tells you passion fired the gun, passion fired the gun and you were,
So stupid, so smart, perfecting the science of breaking my heart
You're so stupid so smart, you're studying the physics of my falling apart.
Heaven Is for Easy Girls
You're sweeter than you think, Janine. You're younger than you know.
Bury me in pink, Janine, my epitaph will go...
Heaven is for easy girls, heaven is for easy girls
Heaven is for sluts so say the lonely ruminant boys in ruts
Don't care what your daddy say, Janine, he don't know you anyway
You spread your wings on display, Janine, how like an angel that way
So is it only work, Janine? Making love in your world
Or could it ever work Janine? Oh could you be my girl?
Heaven is for easy girls, heaven is for easy girls
Heaven is for sluts so say the lonely ruminant boys in ruts
You're queen of this ancient art, Janine, they promise riches untold
And they promise their hearts, Janine, both the young and the old
You're sweeter than you think, Janine. You're younger than you know
Oh bury me in pink, Janine, my epitaph will go...
Heaven is for easy girls, heaven is for easy girls
Heaven is for sluts so say the lonely ruminant boys in ruts.
Sad Girl Radio
Sad girls sit on the rim of the ashtray
Sad girls sock it to you soft and low with an ear to their transistors
Just to hear their boys say "I love you" through the speakers of their radios
Sad girl radio, sad girl radio
Sad girls sigh and it can deafen the whole world
Shake your foundation if you listen close
Cats in their laps as they drown in the real world with their poetry,
their paintings and their radios
Sad girl radio, sad girl radio
Sad girl radio, sad girl radio
Sad girls hate the mirror for all it shows and don't show
Sad girls find comfort in familiar tv shows
Sad girls got secrets that nobody else knows
But their lovers in the speakers of their radios
Sad girl radio, sad girl radio
Sad girl radio, sad girl radio.
I Drive
I drive tonight, you're miles away, from heavy eyes, roadside bouquets
I focus on your face again, you're the rose upon my meridian
The yellow lines they hypnotize, the radio plays lullabies
A gentle swerve into the light, you veer across my mind tonight
Love must test out its mettle alone on a freeway
Love must test out its mettle alone on a freeway, alone on a freeway
Its true, they slow, these instances
More than maps show, our distance is
And in the stillness right before, a thought of you across the shore
Love must test out its mettle alone on a freeway, love must test out
its mettle alone on a freeway
Alone on a freeway
We're Going for a Ride
Take me for a ride, she said its time
The queen of heavy sighs takes back the night
And cowering Olympians unite
Let me hitch a ride, I think you'll find
I'm angry and I lie, but I'm your guy
A cowering inferno set alight, powering a pirate satellite
Were going for a ride
Make it nice and easy now and no one ends up dead
Make it nice and easy now or there will be bloodshed
you've had the wheel all morning did you hear me when I said,
Make it nice and easy or I'll put one in your head
The new way has arrived to shift the tide
The rules of ebb and flow, they're on our side
I'm putting all traditions well aside
I'm bottling munitions deep inside
'Till every dinosaur is on its side
and every elder in formaldehyde
Were going for a ride, were going for a ride
T-rexia Nervosa
I plucked out all of my plumage, and I can keep nothing down
Peacock with poor body image, and a temple that's sure to be torn to the ground
I'm tired all the time, the lullaby become the dirge
I've put on loose fitting finery for the ultimate purge
She will fast another night sink steadfast sink from sight
You reach for her with all your might, but she sinks so fast for one so light.
I starved my way into this world, and I starved my way through
I starved each day as your girl, Jesus Christ, I was starving you too
This shame has disciplined me, although it is crushing and dumb
I know that I'm no survivor, although I may look just like one
She will fast another night sink steadfast sink from sight
You reach for her with all your might, but she sinks so fast for one so light.
the awkward stage
