I am an island, what a wonderful view! Climb a palm tree and see right through If you are tired, on the beach we can rest You won’t get hungry, we’ve got chicken breast All that I have said, bones You got sick but it works for me You thought I’s done, thought we’s history But I can breathe now We become as we rise from the sea As we rise from the sea As we rise from the sea As we rise from the sea

Let’s celebrate this new joy that I’ve found I want to place a big fat computer on your burial ground My construction workers won’t even make a sound And everything pure will crumble into sand You don’t know how cruel I really am All my mom knew how to cook was badness ham I’m sick with evil and smiley I’ll leave you cold if it means that I’ll be free I’ll leave you cold in the mortuary Let’s celebrate the fate of the newly dead And muddy up the sheets of their eternal beds You can make noise all day cuz there’s no way out My computer robot won’t let you scream and shout You don’t know how cruel I really am All my mom knew how to cook was badness ham I’m sick with evil and smiley I’ll leave you cold if it means that I’ll be free I’ll leave you cold in the mortuary I have no soul My computer robot digs a hole

The wheels will spin forever that’s for sure I’m sure that we can push through to a better world We will push forever that’s for sure I’m sure that we can spin ourselves a better world We will spin forever that’s for sure I hope that we don’t fly to close to light and burn Puppeteers, Dogs that bite, you might just lose sight After the plight, here’s yer new life

So there’s this guy, his name is Fry the Hound He picks dead animals off the ground Drunk and lonely, the old creep Eating the meat he finds on the street And Fry is known to say This drunken man Will have his drunken day Well, Fry was at his favourite watering hole Old Mickey’s Bar and Grill He got the bright idea to go up and ask a woman “Miss, how much for a thrill?” The woman’s stomach curled Fry had assumed She was a working girl Long story short, Fry had to split Mickey the barkeep had just had a fit Fry hadn’t meant nothing by it But still he got in shit He tried to no avail Now Fry must settle For some road-kill tail

Preach 02:26
It’s easy to see I can tell that you are thrifty Yet all that power like the 1960’s It’s easy to see Even when the shitty water washes all over me Even when the shitty water washes all over me We can dance forever on the icy shore Funky dance moves, all violence and gore It’s easy to see I can tell that you are thrifty Yet all that power like the 1960’s

Ride the black horse Avoid full force Soak my insides Cool off, don’t fry Yes, you want some Selfish for fun Swallow don’t spit She don’t want it Loving monster Hairless, no fur Drunk on the job Kill for the mob Senseless, fair do Hopeless for you Freshly cut lies Soak my insides Splatter Character used to matter But the black horse just gets fatter It’s true I’m a lot to chew, so chew Fill this shot glass A blast from the past Brand new mistake Fear full of hate No excuses No excuses Painless, clueless No excuses Selfish for fun Fun in the sun Wormies to munch Murder for lunch Drink Elixir Miss the picture Break in this skin Real life begins Splatter Character used to matter But the black horse just gets fatter It’s true I’m a lot to chew, so chew Blind and bombarded, I’m surprised Relentless laser, it melts my eyes Blind and bombarded, I’m surprised Relentless laser, it melts my eyes

Light 04:22
There's no one on this street tonight A silence broken only by the dull buzz of a streetlight A darker pulse creeps over me Lock my mind away and throw away the key Bring me to the light, take away the darkness Another lonely night, another body heartless Bring me to the light, take away the darkness Can't see the stars from here in the city Can't find a friendly face or someone to forgive me Shallow breathing through the mist Hollow little eyes, trembling little fists Bring me to the light, take away the darkness Another lonely night, another body heartless Bring me to the light, take away the darkness Days never used to seem so long My time never used to be wasted My conscience wandered off it's lost and misbehaving But I remember a time when my soul was still worth saving Bring me to the light, take away the darkness Another lonely night, another body heartless Bring me to the light, take away the darkness

Honestly, can’t I do better? He leaves just as soon as he’s met her Rancid bacon in my head And she said… I just want somebody sexy to love me Not like with jam and butter All thongs will be made from mink fur Why ever eat stale bread? And he said… I just want somebody sexy to love me Aberrated, the horny horde We’ve lost our minds so the little cat roars And she won’t even say the F word But I heard… I just want somebody sexy to love me
