Mealworm in your Lettuce

You had a mealworm in your lettuce
and I couldn’t bear to see it squirm
I took it to the door and I set it free
my neighbor was so suspicious of me
that summer was so long
we had no commitments
just unfinished songs and football plans
every day a victory
until that final flight back home
I was looking for a job so I called your agency
you sent me to your email inbox with my CV
I waited two weeks and heard nothing
I'm looking down every single avenue
now it seems like you’re the ones who are
trying to block me out
that summer was so long
we had no commitments
just unfinished songs and football plans
every day a victory
until that final flight back home
and that flight back was like getting your life back
from these bloodsucking agencies
and the Karens on the desks that just make it hard
Hey, I’m qualified but you wanna bum me out

Lies on your TV

when I look at you, when I look at you
you were the north sea
and a blood drop of devotion
and the lies on your TV
you told me it was nothing to worry about
I was the ship sunk deep in the sea
rusted and eroded
I’m just a part of the Western machine.
when I look at you all I see is a falling star
when I think of you all I see is a broken
my heart is all I see
cause I can’t help you daily to live out your broken plans
and hand me downs
its all we had back then
you were the north sea
and a blood drop of devotion
and the lies on your TV
you told me it was nothing to worry about
I was the ship sunk deep in the sea
rusted and eroded
I’m just a part of the Western machine.

Pull the Punches

so we see on the timers all we have are reminders
of our time in the house
we don’t know all the facts you can pull all the punches
over chairs in the lunches
we are new world survivors
we didn’t need your reminders
we did time in the house
you don’t know all the facts
you can pull all the punches
over chairs in the lunches
listening with intent
what percent?
got your deeds
got your doubts
but your losing
I can’t work you out
what about?
got your deeds
got your doubts
but your losing
now is this skippin’ enough
gonna get real rough
catch your t’s
don’t catch your tongue
but you're losing now
now is this skippin’ enough
gonna get real rough
catch your t’s
don’t catch your tongue
heard you’re rising now
I work you out
what about?
got your deeds
got your doubts
but your losing

Where’s My Passion Gone?
06:20
|

|
I’ll look in the mirror for one entire week
and I took the old you to just get something to drink
you said how much I mean to you and you let me hide it
where is the onus? because you own this now
that's fine
press that button in time
if you do to just follow on
I can make it all alright
I can make it all unwind
in you’re nine
to just follow you
slow down show me where the edge is
freak out lick somebody eyelids
you know sometimes I’m barely listening at all
big deal sucking on a lemon
big blocks sitting’ in the mempool
each day, Vitalik is on my mind
where’s my passion gone? these rules are not wrong
there's only so much serotonin to go around
you said how much I meant to you and you left me high
you laid out what you had to do and you left me hided
you left us with our eyes all waking red
there's no reserves
you’re lying
these rails will be lines in time

Get out to New York
03:27

don’t you get it
don’t you get it
move out to New York
move out to New York
so committed
but its like you don’t get it
get out the big wheels
steppin’ on my heels
don’t you get it
don’t you get it
get out to New York
on the way to Benihana
we forgot about the next 3 years
I had to halt the llama
‘cause Gavin always rings my phone
his messages would just read like tomes
books on the border
something on the statist plan
is it a mental disorder..
that I can hear a scared Ayn Rand?
she goes round, round, round.
get out to New York
pull out the pitchforks
get out to New York
get out to New York
get out to New York
just move there
you said you had never been to New York
you’ve never been there
you added that you don’t go out, so what? who cares.
books and the culture,
no better than mine
if that’s what love is now
and now I’m in Jackson
kicking it with these ideals
get out to New York
get out to New York
big move
pack and go
get out to New York
get out to New York
move there
live your lives there
move out to New York
move out soon
live there,
raise your kids there.

Watch the talk show numb yourself numb yourself
Watch the talk show numb yourself numb yourself
Put your doubts in a box
take a blue pill and a walk
just pretend that you never saw anything at all
Put your doubts in a box
take a blue pill and a long walk
