WHERE NO EAGLES FLY
please, come on babe, they'll end up all confused,
what's the point of telling people if they won't use it?
fly on the wall, bird of prey in the mall
it's the eye in the sky, where no eagles fly
meat,
predators eat meat.
predators eat meat.
ceremony or a speech,
in a church or on a beach,
predators eat.
the wolf will cry sheep as they take him away,
we plot in our sleep but follow orders all day
the rhythm is for you but the song is for me,
the meaning might be secret but the melody is free
meat,
predators eat meat.
predators eat meat.
let all my big dreams sink in,
no one to enjoy it with.
oblivious… stay oblivious,
why can you not be more like me?
hiding in a nearby tree.
business, business, i forget,
pray for predators i guess
uh-oh, uh-oh, here we go, all our future's thru that door
future future's come to this, everybody cheats i guess
let's go down to mexico, 'there's a couple guys i know'
all our future's come to this, i don't want my friends to know
all our future's come to this, i don't want our friends

HUMAN SADNESS
put money in my hand
and i will do the things you want me to
Vanity… overriding wisdom,
usually common sense.
should i delete it,
you said you'd read it
you promised you would never ruin it with sequels,
I wake for you… on and on
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there.
~
the moon's a skull, i think it's grinning
the room is full of people now i think it's spinning
wanted you… didn't ask for nothing. wait for you… on and on
and i don't need your tie, i don't need to, tired of saying it.
we don't need more talk, don't empty out your canteen on the desert floor.
…ahhh, it's all my fault
never wanna spell it out,
i just want to say that it is all my fault,
i could never spit it out,
i don't wanna fix your tie...
never want to say we're sad,
thankful that we got some chance,
i know you won't get back your time,
i wish that you could take it back...
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there.
~
he wanted it more than me, i suppose
i was in a rush to wait in a line.
now i hear echoes of my old self,
this is not the way to be.
all at once,
i lost my way...
is it not true, the things that we did?
come here at once and look what they did
come here shut down and tune in tonite,
learn the words that they teach you without you realizing it
come here sit down and watch some tv
mine all mine / wait your turn
cross my cross / slice his hand
not your son / not your friend / not your enemy
i rely on the little things to get me by,
conscience says "i'm ok",
you don't hear what they say.
"he's not my son, search his home"
off to war,
it's time to go hide inside
-
soft skin,
weak chin,
just walk me thru it, tell me what to do i'll do
hurry hurry, that's my baby
ohh, do what you can.
all the time - he waits for me.
and now we talk from time to time,
hits you on the head when nobody's there,
then he says 'come here could you fix my tie?'
it's never gonna be,
to be is not the way to be.
show me where to go don't get angry so quickly,
fuck depression...
beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
i will be meeting you there
~
understanding is more important than love,
if not money will always trump justice
all is lost,
i'll find my way...
so i say,
to be is not to be.
to be is not the way to be.

M.UTUALLY A.SSURED D.ESTRUCTION
Chasing all your dreams like any fool
Observing the absurd from a piano stool
It's the first time you got the truth - that's for sure.
Now the bad feelings they come in wavesFeeding on your nightmares to procure
Trusting in their words today no more
It's the first time you got it right - that's for sure.
Black hole sucking us into oblivion

FATHER ELECTRICITY
Like harmonies, locks in keys,
Lightning in every drop. We're tricked again, lost at sea,
When we find land, can I climb your tree?
I know it's hard to see
I wanna believe what you're saying
But I'm seeing the games that you're playing
I know-know-know-know-know-know-know
What I'm gonna d-d-d-d-d-do
In the wrong place, at the wrong time
They're attracting all the wrong people to the wrong line
I do not wanna see the whole mess,
I wish I could live in retrospect
5 steps, remember them well,
As you're coming down,
Down the well,
And you drop 500 tons of hell
You are everything I see - every time I blink - despair.
Who's asleep at the wheel? They fight for every meal, who likes that bad idea?
You.
Undo...
What I feel, Qualia,
What I am, Qualia.
Wait, wait,
No, I don't want it
No, I don't want it
-
You are everything I see - every time I blink - despair.
Lock the doors and hide the keys,
And wake the doctor, call a priest,
Born out of electricity, I wait for you in the second life.
Who's asleep at the wheel? Who likes that bad idea? Who wants a happy meal? oooh
…You are everything I see - every time I blink - despair,
I will take what I can grab, but I, I don't want your money bags
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh
What else can I say,
What else can I say,
What else can I say tonite?

XEROX
I won't fight, it's not the time or place
Stone-age mind in a space-world age,In the dark, violent space,
Kids learning how to mosh again
Will the sky open up and destroy everyone I loved,
One way out,
You don't take it to heart,
Until it tries tearing you apart
Hard to avoid the past,
I guess the only way is acknowledging it,
Everyone lies to me and tries to sell me stuff, but I guess that's just love
I love the beginning; the way women give in - the velvet rope unhinged
I'll give you everything that you ever wanted, but you won't want it then
I'm the worst, I'm the worst
I'm the worst, I'm the worst
I'm the worst, I'm the worst
I'm the worst, I'm the worst
Very late at night when cities turn into forests again
When the devil offers you
A devil sip of his devil brew
"In my day, trained in a distant life, I won't think of it, I won't cry"
Summer days, I'd be at the playground...
Please… please… please...
I can't wait to make it through
Our awkwardness
Hard to avoid the past,
I guess the only way is acknowledging it
Everyone lies to me and tries to sell me stuff, but I guess that's just love
I love the beginning, your clothes slide off your skin, giving is receiving
Patterns of emptiness,
Tomorrow is laughing,
Money b----- tyranny
I'm the worst, I'm the worst
I'm the worst, I'm the worst
I'm the worst, I'm the worst

BUSINESS DOG
Take me to your business place
I'm gonna be there 20 minutes late
I'm gonna %$#@* your face for breakfast
I love being weird, it's so weird
Quiz in the morning the police outside
She's been missing since late last night
'I wrote my name on the world,' regretting as he makes his license plates
Leave it all to me, yeahhh
Just leave it to me, yeahhh
Leave it all to me, yeahhh
Make and model number, please
...Waiting for my license plates,
Meet you at your breakfast place
I'm gonna be at your place for business
Let me work it, work it - work it - work it
Wage war on the listener
I can't fight cause I can't fight
He does it on a plane
- - - I bet my lies
You can trust him.
Leave it all to me, yeahhh
Just leave it to me, yeahhh
Leave it all to me, yeahhh
Make and model number, please
"That's how ya do it in the business, kid…"
Leave it all to me, yeahhh
Just leave it to me, yeahhh
Leave it all to me, yeahhh
Model number, please
Good job, business dog.

NINTENDO BLOOD
Her eyes were black and white and blue
I listen to your favorite songs backwards
Do you have a plan for who to surrender to?
I've been training for you…It won't stop now
Imprisoned us in a song
Asleep in the dead of wrong
No return beyond this point
In theory
Will you drift into that dark war-path,
When the blood runs down their face sideways?
As the party stays in the city forever, it seems
Like ugly hippy neon art
We let the schoolboys in your eyes run out
When you asked me to blow smoke in your mouth
Like anybody the gloves I find I try
Can you think back to that time?
I was so angry I got up and out of bed
I spent 25 minutes reading what you said
A face I know so well, I've memorized your teeth
I've worked so hard I haven't looked at you in weeks
Will you solve your problems in the day-light?
They like to change the rules as they go
By chapter 2 he got killed by the author
Momma won't let me out
Take me in your android arms mom-Jeanette
Made up of every lonely person you've met
Of every pretty stranger you'll never regret ---
I can't help it, it's not my fault, gotta be possessive
Each man for his own, arm in arm in arms
Imprisoned us in a song
Asleep in the dead of wrong
Motha-f. Don't page me tonite
Don't stop, react, attack.
"When man has conquered the earth he will have destroyed himself
His appetite will devour the earth and leave behind only a desert
The end of living & the beginning of surviving,
Our land, our brother we treat like an enemy
But "when man has conquered the earth he will have destroyed himself
The end of living & the beginning of surviving…"
Our land is a brother we treat like an enemy - oh oh
Cause nothing exists except molecules and empty space - oh oh
The moon is cracked I think it looked at me and grinned
The room is packed I look around and now it spins
Cyborg, I need to sit down, I need to shut up
Universe everything's wrong, I think I fucked up
Only trust myself
Level with myself
Level with myself
I am not myself
please, come on babe, they'll end up all confused,
