THE PUNK ROCK IDEAL
Run from conformity, and what do you find?
A new set of rules by which to abide
You found the freedom to express yourself
And use it to look just like everyone else
How does it feel?
The punk rock ideal
Leather and spikes will not set you apart
Haircuts aren't something that come from the heart
Buy into fashion, believe in the hype
Image is nothing but stereotype
Put on your uniform and go to a show
Seek the approval of people you know
Group-think mentality has poisoned your mind
There is no greater threat facing mankind
How does it feel?
The punk rock ideal

FRANKENSTEIN'S DAUGHTER
She is Frankenstein's daughter
And she wants equal pay
She's just as strong as her father
And she's demanding a raise
People call her a monster
'Cause people are afraid
That she'll eventually conquer
All their discriminate ways
She only wants equal rights
She won't go down without a fight
She is Frankenstein's daughter
You see it in her face
She doesn't want to be objectified
She has a functional brain
She isn't just some monster
Despite her family name
But all the men around her
Fear just the same
She only wants equal rights
She won't go down without a fight

Cemetery

CEMETERY
Buried underground
In a secretive, Midwestern town
A killer never found
But the atmosphere still lingers 'round
Mystery and fear
They find a body every year
A decade in his wake
The children sing about their fate
No, I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go to the cemetery
The victims are exhumed
The documents are court approved
Religion rears its head
'Cause justice now disturbs the dead
But digging for the truth
Just stirs up fear; it's nothing new
The children know his name
Just listen close and hear them say
No, I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go to the cemetery

JOAN CRAWFISH RIDES AGAIN
What makes you think I'm less than you?
My genitals are important too
These tits don't make me secondary
I'm not your fucking secretary
Shouldn't be an insult to be a girl
What the fuck's with this world?
Spit, throw, run
Like a girl
They can't handle our empowerment
So they make us powerless
Weakness is not a female trait
Macho bullshit, full of hate
Shouldn't be an insult to be a girl
What the fuck's with this world?
Spit, throw, run
Like a girl

HAMMERHEAD SLUG
An invasive species
With a taste for blood
A mutant worm from another world
Squirming through the mud
A creature doomed to live without legs
Won't have your pity when he's eating your face
Salt the slug, watch it dissolve
Better hope it doesn't evolve
Hammerhead
Hammerhead
Hammerhead slug
Predatory flatworm
Who shit's from it's mouth
Hermaphrodite from another land
Somewhere in the South
A single, slimy, pulsating mass
Inching closer by the edge of the grass
Why it's here, nobody knows
But watch the worm exponentially grow
Hammerhead
Hammerhead
Hammerhead slug

MARTIANS TOOK MY JOB
Wake up, kid
Big surprise
Alien invaders before your eyes
Little green men
From outer space
Coming to mooch off the human race
Build a wall around the Earth
'Cause martians are the fucking worst
They wanna bleed the system dry
Send 'em back into the sky
This is how
The martians win
They buy a house
And they move right in
They steal our women
And take our jobs
And they all speak Martian
Like fucking dogs
Build a wall in outer space
Just to keep our people safe
They wanna bleed the system dry
Send 'em back into the sky

SKUNK APE IN THE SWAMPS OF SADNESS
The creature has many names
We know him as the skunk ape
Roaming the marsh for a bride
Something he may never find
Loneliness of the skunk ape
In the swamps of sadness
They say the beast knows know fear
They haven't seen him 'round here
Moping around every bend
Wishing he could find a friend
Loneliness of the skunk ape
In the swamps of sadness
Searching for a happiness that
May not ever come
Seeking out companionship just
Makes him feel numb

Don't Tell My Parents

DON'T TELL MY PARENTS
Don't tell my parents,
But I moved back in their basement
They never go down there;
The space is just wasted
I know if I asked them,
They'd make me pay rent
But they'll never notice
Mom's drinking again
They'll never understand
So don't tell my parents, man
I bet if they caught me
My dad would press charges
To teach me a valuable lesson
In being heartless
I call my mom every week
She asks how I am
She's says I should drop by sometime
For cookies and ham
Don't tell my parents, man
They'll never understand
Come on and be a friend
And don't tell my parents, man

BLUE LIVES BLUES
Well life is rough, 'cause I'm a cop
And I'm not smart enough to do my job
People screaming, "Please dont shoot!"
But what's an officer supposed to do?
Life is tough, when you're police
Harassing people, out on the street
Hard to tell who's breaking the law
So I guess I'll arrest them all
Just tell me who I can beat
So you'll respect me
Life is hard when you wear a badge
The gun won't stay away from my hands
I act though, but I'm really afraid
I feel threatened when you're running away
It's so hard to be on the force
It isn't easy to beat up the poor
But I'm a cop, it's who I am
Upholding laws for my Uncle Sam
Just tell me who I can beat
So you'll respect me

THE LAST MAN ON EARTH
Well it's been three years since the death of the human race
And now everything we've learned as a species will be erased
And until the other day, I assumed I was all that's left
Til some guy shows up at my door and starts begging for sex
Says he needs me to repopulate the Earth
I said, "Dude, can we talk about it first?"
Looked annoyed as he rolled his sunken eyes
He's the kind of guy I'm glad to leave behind
Yeah, I don't care if he's the last man
I'm never popping out his kid
Not into shaking up with douche bags, baby
Even if that's all that's left
How can I procreate
With such a reprobate?
I really wish he wasn't here
I'd rather be alone
Than hear him piss and moan
I'll find a way to disappear
A world descending from an asshole
Is not utopia to me
So why start over with the same shit, baby
Just go away and leave me be
Yeah, I don't care if he's the last man
I'm never popping out his kid
Not into shaking up with douche bags, baby

UNCLE SAM
I was raped by Uncle Sam
He blamed it on the Mexicans
Whispered softly in my ear
They're the ones you're supposed to fear
Creeps into my room at night
Puts his hand upon my thigh
Tells me of free market woes
Then crams his dick in every hole
I guess the lesson's learned
You can't trust Uncle Sam
I guess the moral is
You can't trust Uncle Sam

BLAME IT ON MY UTERUS
I got denied for a student loan
Blame it on my uterus
Men won't leave me the fuck alone
Blame it on my uterus
Blame it on your uterus
When you think you've got it rough
And can't be taken serious
Just blame it on your uterus
I can't afford an insurance plan
Blame it on my uterus
No one seems to understand
Blame it on my uterus
I just wrecked my fucking car
Blame it on my uterus
Clashing cultures go to war
Blame it on my uterus
Blame it on your uterus
When you think you've got it rough
And can't be taken serious
Blame it on your uterus
When you think you've got it rough
And can't be taken serious
Just blame it on your uterus

FLY RIBBON
Thirty flies killed this afternoon
Insect blood all over my room
Maggots born deep inside of my walls
Fly ribbon up and down the halls
Fifty flies killed by the last of light
Zapper goes off in the dead of night
Buzzing has gotten inside my head
Maybe I should just be a fly instead
Ninety flies dead by the break of day
Lingering thoughts kept me awake
Dreamt I had become their lord
Took control of the angry swarm
Sunlight peeks from behind their wings
Soon I will become their king
Bedroom smells of pesticide
Now I am the lord of the flies

SIXTY YEARS HARD LABOR
Life is such a waste of time
None of us get out alive
Mostly, it's a boring ride
Sit around and wait to die
I'm afraid this is all there is
Just a steaming pile of shit
I could go for a light refrain
Do the good parts over again
Life is such a shitty song
I can't help but sing along
Whistle the familiar tune
Your crescendo's coming soon
I'm afraid this is all there is
Just a steaming pile of shit
I could go for a light refrain
Play the good parts over again

DIE ALONE
You're getting older by the day
A clueless fuck, stuck in his ways
Wisdom's not something you possess
You're gonna die a nervous wreck
Die alone
Someday your friends will all be gone
You'll listen to that same old song
And wonder how you got so old
And why you're forced to be alone
Die alone
You're gonna die alone
