1. Stupid All the Time -
well, I never knew what dogs we’d be
with radar laws and coffee sleep
and all them things that make you feel
stupid all the time
we’re charging over purchased hills
yuppie powers curtain our thrills
with chemicals and made up wars
the twins don’t care who the fuck it’s for
darlings of the sparkling kids
holding what we thought had slipped away
and farting never felt so good
when starving becomes fashion
we're back in the woods
and who were we to be so smug?
Subaru is lesbian for truck
we’re the same, again
we’re the same, again
and call off all them dirty tricks
nothing new will ever fix the shame
we’re the same, again
we’re the same, again
we’re the same, again
as our fake lives end.
we’re charging over purchased hills
yuppie cowards droppin’ pills
darlings of the sparkling kids
holding what we thought had slipped away
2. Reins
ya know, it's all the same to them
ya know, it's all the same to them
do the reins keep you down?
slap you in the face
every new day
crank up the pace
ya know, it's all the same to them
ya know, it's all the same to them
do the reins keep you down?
slap you in the face
every new day
crank up the pace
they're not gonna keep coming upright forever
we're not gonna keep shouting big brother forever
the reins here feel fine
the blood is in your mind
ya know, ya know….
3. Simple
all of those nights that we crawled
lower than gum on the floor
hovering over that plate
rollin' up guns in our face
and all those times she
hold me down, hold you down
my house is small,
but my drums are real loud
I stole two couches
straight out of her mouth
I just wanna keep it simple
get old and wrinkled
I just wanna keep it simple
and live in a shit-hole
oh all right, yeah all right
let's have a party
oh all right, yeah all right
what's one more party?
for all those times she
hold me down, hold you down
I got a dog who refuses to shout
my life's been good since the bottom fell out
Now, I just wanna keep it simple, get old and wrinkled
I just wanna keep it simple, live in a shit-hole
oh all right, yeah all right
we'll have a party
oh all right, yeah all right
what's one more party?
for all those times she made you cry
and held us down between her thighs
we ground our teeth while something died
I just wanna keep it simple,
live in a shit-hole
I just wanna keep it simple,
get old and wrinkled
oh all right, yeah all right
let's have a party
oh all right, yeah all right
what's another party?
oh all right, yeah all right
let's have a party
for all those times she hold me down
4. In the Dark
once I saw spun on the lawn a million shining threads
and in that web I lay in wonder lapping up the thunder
lapping up the thunder, lapping up the thunder as I rolled
midnight is close
save me one smoke
in case we should meet
on the other side of the street
in the dark
the garage had the stars in a box for
cigars
you never saw me, but I was always
being a retard in the backyard
lapping up the thunder, lapping up the thunder, lapping up the thunder as I rolled
midnight is close
save me one smoke
in case we should meet
on the other side of the street
in the dark...
the garage had the stars in a for cigars
lapping up the thunder, lapping up the thunder, lapping up the thunder as I rolled
midnight is close
save me one smoke
in case we should meet
on the other side of the street
in the dark….
5. Frisco Man
He rolled up, the son of
a Frisco Man
Spoiled but loyal
enough to be my friend
We never fought the Mexicans
if only I could headlock him again
Don't wake him up
or waste your love
he's already gone
Just sing a long and make no sense
'til the drink is gone
and there's only death
All my friends,
all my friends are dead ends
The sunlight that shined right into my eyes
is burned like when we'd drive
egging up the park at night
Oh, which moments did we fail?
No one knows if we could have helped
I won't wake you up or waste your love
I know you're gone
I'll just sing along and make no sense
until the drink is gone
and there's only death
All my friends,
all my friends are dead ends
all my friends
all my friends
6. Boomers on a Hot Tuesday
Well, wouldn't it be nice
if we could all be nice
and hang out in the yard?
And couldn't you be there
in spite of all that shit
that you need to do?
Or you could write me a quick letter
nothing about the weather,
just what's on your mind
I know it sounds the fool,
but wouldn't it be nice
if we could make amends?
We're all turning on
the same frickin' dime
and it takes up all our time
Let's all put down all
of our fancy tools
and head down to the pool
I'm not sure about you
and you're not sure about me
well let's just go and see
I know it sounds the fool
but wouldn't it be nice
if we could make amends?
I seen your eyes and how they long
for open fields and space
I watched you in your secret place
wasting away
away
away
away
away
7. Greensox
I took my dog to the beach today
we brought a ball and a Frisbee
the sun was out and everyone was
smiling
and we were there to play
then came a man
with papers in his hand
we said fuck that and we ran
but he chased us through the sand
hey, Mr.Greensox's out of the boy scouts
how does it feel to be all grown up?
write me a ticket, save the tree frog
protect the beaches from me and my fucking dog
Now that's a hundred dollar fine
not to read their fucking sign
me and Chester in the seas
just relaxing off the leash
now that's the end of that
California's just for cats
but I'm a dog and so's my dog
so we're never coming back
hey, Mr. Greensox's out of the boy scouts
how does it feel to be all grown up?
write me a ticket, save the tree frog
protect the beaches from me and my fucking dog
I always said it, and I always said it was going down hill
I always said it, and I always said it was going down hill
8. Everglader
heaven knows I'm here for you
let's go out for a golden screw
ride out past the old zoo
what else can you think to do?
and I know where your mind has run
the Everglades don't look too calm
forget about your laser phone
you're with me 'til dawn
hit the quick-stop on the way
the cliffs at night are never safe
grab a fifth and I'll go pay
I know that you would do the same
dusty moonlit road goes south
pull off to get the tangles out
tell me it was you just now
that touched me 'cause no one is around
the dolls and the ghouls that live for the night
uphold everything wrong that I like
what's wrong with a little tainted advice?
and a song to forget this adult life
as I roll on tonight
9. Chester and Jonny
Early this morning
at the crack of dawn
I seen you sneaking
off my lawn
what you boys doing
drinking all my wine?
I caught you sleeping in my yard for the last time
laying out in the hot sun
you're thinkin' that you're awesome
I'm thinkin' of my shotgun
all I wanted was a cold one
Where's Jonny? Where's Jonny?
with Chester, Chester, Chester
in the middle of the night
I'm flat on my face
I seen your headlights
I'm not afraid
laying out in the hot sun
you're thinkin' that you're awesome
I'm thinking of my shotgun
all I wanted was a cold one
Where's Jonny? Where's Jonny?
with Chester, Chester, Chester
Chester, Chester….
10. Dry Ice
It takes a lot of love
to die young
