She's a Babe 03:54
There she goes, looking fine And I can tell she probly hears it all the time And maybe I can be the one to catch her eye And let it go when it starts to cry 'Cause she's not the type that's gonna last long 'Cause every other guy is singing her the same song Waiting for the next dance As if they've got a chance 'Cause she's a babe You know she knows She acts like she hates When they ask all the same questions Don't lie, it shows She loves every minute When she's getting all of the attention Make no mistake That girl's a babe
2.
Wasted 02:21
All along the eastern shore And all along the sea There's somebody that's out to get you And there's somebody that's out to get me It seems like I'm always making a mess of things I need a solution Would you care to make a contribution? I hear you're up to date with the confusion If life's a contest, you're probably losing All this time I've been trying to hide myself I thought I would need your help ‘Cause it seems like you’re always wasted

Gamma Rays 02:56
Ooo, the breeze feels so good Never thought it could Feel so good I'll meet you on your way up And catch you on your way down Mmm, the earth tastes so good Never thought it could Taste so good Way, way down
4.
I come from the year 2568 Where our brains are connected wirelessly So the future doesn't end up that way Nobody knows till somebody tries Nobody cares till somebody dies Nobody's home, so stay outside When you're all alone, turn out the light There's no future when you're a time traveler Really? Yeah

Equilibrium for your cranium Equilibrium will soothe your cranium The chain is too tight The grass is too long You need equilibrium For your cranium Somebody feed the dog The lonely, lonely dog Olden, golden Goldilocks had just enough to drink She had a lot of love to share, and shared a bit with me Then the howling, prowling hound caught her curiosity So she threw the dog a bone That landed just out of reach She said, "He needs equilibrium for his cranium" Meditation once a day keeps the doctor away Meditation once a day keeps the doctor at bay

Blue Eyes 02:55
Sing to me softly Help me float away like bubbles Float away I'm dreaming out the window Speak to me softly Eyes like skies of blue getting cloudy Colors bleeding through, let me follow you

Can't Cook 04:48
Look real hard at that end point Before we finish the end of this joint Because on my shoulders, I’ll anoint The knowledge upon you Like putting on the perfect shoe This is the do or die, that fight or fly Why sink when I can swim? So, I’ll leave my bygones in the bin And focus on the in-between selection Like how through the cracks of the crowd We avoid detection, just call it secession From the front of the everyday Who’s got time to have it your way When you’re always begging me to stay? Gotta go to work and I gotta get paid Trying to keep my many fears at bay In the eventual sway of the night and day Dawn and dusk, but who’s looking at us? In the end, it’s not me and not him No, not now, and by then You’ll be off to the roller coasters Choking them birds like you’re supposed to All those chickens that you beat Stepping out the kitchen, watch the skeet Is this how you treat yourself? You fall flat on your face? Defeat? And I hope you land on your feet This isn’t a fucking treat And all those boys you see They don’t want you, they just want that pussy Why you trying to lie like that? I don't know why you're tryna lie like that I always see you standing there Half naked in your underwear What’s worse is the smile and stare You give to me when you let down your hair Girl, you give my drawers a scare And it’s not that I don’t care I just think you were fucked up from the crib Since you still act like you need a bib Whoops, you told a fib The timeless mistake you make Being with you’s like filling out a fucking Mad Lib I tell you what to do And the rest is stupid through and through It’s just you, not me But I can see it in everything you do Girl, you’re lonely, and I don’t know if you know But I can see you standing there in the snow If it only it snowed where you live You’d have something to play with besides yourself In your bedroom, waiting for another guy To come walking by Hi, always strutting fly Just the same old guy Walking right on by Didn’t even have to try Just threw you my number Lo and behold, you discovered I want what you have to offer Like an undercover, secret mission In the bedroom, we be kissing But the rest is not for listening Sloppy seconds, maybe And D, I know you gonna hate me You went through this ghost house first You probly bore the worst I recognize the advice that you gave me Man, you right, this girl is crazy She’s always saying something, always bluffing Anything to keep the dogs coming This kitten’s got me smitten Though I know she just a vixen Mixing the next story in a pot Girl, whether you like it or not You’re gonna get yourself shot But man, you’re right, it’s my mistake Should’ve never let you in my life An overload of strife is at stake, so let’s bake But just wait one, little second more While I carry all the weight Is this fate? Definitely not Just a delusion caused by pot My patient’s fixed up on the spot It’s like you can’t relax Motherfucker never learned to sit back A Zig Zag and a six pack Girls like you cook your own smack And dose up too much Because you’ve long lost your touch Alone in the back of the pack You act like I don’t know too much Girl, your brain must be mush Too many cocks you’ve bum-rushed But where you really fucked up Is how you can’t keep it on hushed

Why should I do you any favors? This old trick has gone too far What should I be waiting for next? I didn't know who you were at first Got names confused I guess everybody now knows I found out too soon Don't you feel amused? Good intentions couldn't last me too long Couldn't stand against the devil in my song I realize now I was used like a tool to patch the bruise To entertain a crowd with the guise of a muse Would you play me like that if I was famous? Would you be so pale if you were dangerous? You're self diagnosed, fully comatose, way under-dosed Don't look here, no, now we're closed You thought the noose was closed But girl, you’re dealing with the ghost Of a long dead sociopathic host My body's tied up to a post What you see of myself is what came back from hell So, set sail to a new place Or don't come back without a new face You think that you're the shit But until you get a hold of it You'll always be depressed Forever getting undressed Leaving cuts across your breast to let the light in And they call you, “Sunshine” Add it all up What is this really about?
10.
What are people saying now? They're always bringing you down They're talking shit about you Did you ever have a clue? They're always giving you hell But not to anybody else So, maybe it's just you So, what are you gonna do? It seems like you got lost in your own mind 'Cause, baby, you're hard to find I've been there too So I'll give you some advice There's an answer that's disguised by your own mind And I found the answer while I was in there They're always talking some shit about you
11.
Hey, your insides are showing They might say, "Keep it on the down low" But they're already flowing So, might as well let them flow 'Cause there's more to knowing Than they think they know Watch out for the unreal In the atmosphere Just try to stay here When you're in the atmosphere Here again Not in the mood to pretend Lucky for me the scene died The crowd was unsatisfied 'Cause it's hard to please what's unnecessary 'Cause, you know, it's just the way she goes I met a girl We almost made it But hold up, she evaporated A girl, I almost ate it But hold up, she evaporated Into the atmosphere
12.
The girl who never killed herself She's still alive today She never got away It's funny, she's a lot like me And I never really understood what she saw In a guy like me before I could never really seem to be Too much brighter these days She's half alive I want to ride without that high 'Cause she's half alive I'll be the other half Just do the math Add it all up and you will really see What this was meant to be But I can't seem to find the right lyrics to describe What's going on What's really going on? Reality seeps through my mind And I can't seem to find My way through this rain That is trying to disguise the world from me So, I'll just try to keep my eyes set straight I don't know where I'm going I'm walking in a straight line sometimes I'm just trying to keep moving forward And I can never get bored Because I got so much left I'm only ten percent started And I can never really seem to But I ran out of words
