You Do You 03:42
You Don't cry You're a man You Don't try To understand I Want you To do you This Is tried And true All Of your dreams Will die That Girl you like Won't reply I Want you To do you This Is tried And true Why did you ask me If you wanna go If you really didn't want To go to the show It puzzles me Oh it puzzles me I Want you To do you This Is tried And true If you don't like me Why are we still together Are you playing a game That makes you feel clever It troubles me Oh it troubles me I Want you To do you This Is tried And true

The Boys 03:22
Boy You thought  you were doing good You knew you were doing bad Oh boy Why me? Boy More than just misunderstood You don't know the things you had Oh boy Why me? Watch out The boys are coming Watch out Heads are rolling Watch out They're coming after you Watch out The kids are running Watch out For people dying They're coming after you Boy Took a bullet to the face Shot scared and promised help Oh boy Why you? Boy Sees blood all over the place Paralyzed your minds in hell Oh boy Why you? Watch out The boys are coming Watch out Heads are rolling Watch out They're coming after you Watch out The kids are running Watch out For people dying They're coming after you

Urine and Vinegar: Stains on my life Stains on the past Stains I will never part with Stains on the knife Stains on the grass Can't escape that which is no longer a myth Stinks like urine and vinegar Running, hiding, death colliding Urine and vinegar I didn't want to kill her Urine and vinegar Why is it a crime to murder Murder isn't something that I want to commit I had to do it I had to watch the head split And with this burden that I bear They're almost upon me They're almost here Urine and vinegar I didn't want to kill her Urine and vinegar Why is it a crime to murder I accept my fate

Walking DUIs 01:25
When you grow up with functioning alcoholics for parents, you get used to driving with walking DUIs. And at times you might even hope they slip up. Because that red convertible would give you no shelter from a collision with a telephone pole or a rival driver. Sometimes you just sit in the back with the wind blowing endlessly through hair and wait for impact. And when your father takes his hands off the wheel to sing along with the deafening pop music emitting from the specialty subwoofers he had installed purely to "wake up the neighbors". You can't help but flinch. Maybe out of fear or more likely out of anticipation. One things for certain though, you intentionally didn't wear a seatbelt.

Getting into a knife fight with god He guts you up the front, you were flawed What does he do with your body Made in his image but a little shoddy Looking at himself on the floor Looks like the back of a convenience store Something that you knew existed You're just not quite familiar with it He hides you in plain sight Only able to come out at night Below the crust of the earth Is where you created your own hearth A place for you to live and prosper Except you're not alive now are you sir Your skin has pigmented itself To match the color of your cell No longer white and etherial A dark Crimson with a black soul One thing you kept from heaven Was a hate for man He was always gods favorite And you didn't like that one bit The difference between spite and cruelty Is that spite may make it hard to breath But at least in the end you'll be alright You just want to finish this fight With cruelty however it's not so You only want to reap and never sew That's where you clipped your wings off Something new, you couldn't be stopped Now your hell burns brighter everyday But you're neutral evil you don't sway A tortuous man if you can be called such To be called man is implying too much Now imagine this wasn't you And you still have life to do You're not trapped anywhere You're on earth without a care But it's me down here And I've got some beer So if you wanna join me Just avoid this plea If there's one thing I say you listen to Please choose this it's important to you Soamething that a father should never say "Son I've given up now get out of my way"

Custom Blue 02:13
Sitting in a holding cell Holding on my only cell I had one call and I called you There's a drunk guy next to me And one is trying to pee I'm sitting here breathing heavily The guy with the tattoos Is talking about fucking you I'm just avoiding eye contact He pulls out a shiv I've got a sec to live But a guard comes in and beats him Funny how that works He's framed as a jerk He's probably just had a long day The man with the stick Asks if I wanna lick Because apparently I looked funny I said no officer He said officer sir And that's when I decided to be quiet He went in real close Told me take off your clothes And put the baton to my face I got terrified But tattoos was still alive He jumped on the guards back to save me The shiv punctured his lung Guard winked and it was done Tattoos and him were lifeless Another guy came in Gave his head a spin He evaluated and decided I did this He pulled out his gun It was labeled number one But two bullets entered my skull You arrived a little late Too bad we missed our date If only I had put on a seatbelt

Betty White 01:29
(Verse) Older than sliced bread Older than sliced bread Older than sliced bread Older than sliced bread Older than sliced bread Older than sliced bread Older than sliced bread It's the best thing since Betty White! (Chorus) (Verse) Whiter than sliced bread Whiter than sliced bread Whiter than sliced bread Whiter than sliced bread Whiter than sliced bread Whiter than sliced bread Whiter than sliced bread It's the best things since Betty White! (Chorus) (Bridge) Don't die on me Betty You game show lady Though you're probably quite shady It doesn't matter because you're Betty White!

I am the last man on earth (and you still won't sleep with me) Pretty little thing thing I wanna buy you a ring ring Get inside your head head Get inside your bed bed But you are so mean mean So callous and lean lean You just hate my guts guts A kick to the nuts nuts But If there was a bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb, How could I go wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong, Everyone would get along long long long long, Everyone would be gone gone gone gone gone, But you still wouldn't sleep with me You still wouldn't sleep Just you and me me But you can't see see That were alone lone You've got no home home Just get in my car car Let me see how far far I'll go all the way way Cause all I have to say say If there was a bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb, How could I go wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong, Everyone would get along long long long long, Everyone would be gone gone gone gone gone, But you still wouldn't sleep with me You still wouldn't sleep I heard you like it rough rough Nasty nasty stuff stuff I wish I wasn't nice nice Cause you're my only vice vice Too bad there is no bomb bomb We'll never get along long And you still wouldn't sleep with me You still wouldn't sleep With me

Come now see the old abandoned reaper, He had a love but I guess he couldn't keep her, Now he travels round the town with a sickle on his back, His eyes are iv'ry white And his face been tinted black, You'll know that you're too close When you spot his W, This carving on his forehead Stands for "warning" to you, What happens when the good griims gone to roost, Will he resort to mortal drugs to give him a boost, No he's far too good for that He'll just go to bed, Let his golden halo rest with the horns on his head Come now see the old abandoned reaper, I think that he can smile But I'm not sure, It's difficult to tell With that smoke on his breath, If anyone liked cigarettes Of course it would be death, Funny how sometimes His cloak it feels like lead, Who Would ever think That death wants to be dead, What happens when the good griims gone to roost, Will he resort to mortal drugs to give him a boost, No he's far too good for that He'll just go to bed, Let his golden halo rest with the horns on his head Come now see the old abandoned reaper, One thing most don't know bout death Is that he's hurt, He's not the ruthless beast You were taught he was, He's just being told what to do We all have shitty jobs, So next time your friend dies Don't tell fuck death too loud, He's going through some stuff right now.
