"Tension Head"

Every day I wake up feelin' this way
I take it downtown, with all the action goin' down
I strike a match, strike a match, cook it up!

(High life) I'm feelin' so sick
(Low life) I feel so fuckin' sick

On the bathroom floor
Gotta get out and get right
Hustlin' little girls
Machine, little boys

Gotta get out
Gotta get out and get right
I gotta get out
No more! [3x]

(My life) I'm feelin' so sick on the bathroom floor
(Your life) I'm feelin' so sick
No more!

(High life, low life) [2x]
(High life) I'm feelin' so sick on the bathroom floor
(Low life) Sick... no... no more

"I Think I Lost My Headache"

You know why
They called and just let it ring
No reply
The door is open I swear
Ain't no use in picking up
You know why

[chorus:]
It's all my head I know
So they tell me so
Until my head explodes
Into my head it goes

Tastes so good
Oh, but I knew it would
Tastes so good
Burn like a match house
Medicate just to make you soft
Love is blind

Catch and release me
What the hell were they thinking of
You know why

[repeat chorus]

"Ode To Clarissa"

I knock on your door
I tiptoe on the floor
I hope your daddy ain't home right now
He warned me once before

You know he warned me once before

I stay up late
So we can keep our date
I love that we don't get no sleep
So to your window I creep
You know he warned me once before

[chorus:]
I'm the one your mamma told ya 'bout
I'm the one your pappa told ya 'bout

Now you're in love
And why shouldn't you be
I'm everything you'll never be
You say don't leave
Baby, I can't wait
Next time, we share my second base

[repeat chorus]

"You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire"

Dead bull with the life from the low
I’ll be massive conquistador
Give me soul and show me the door
Metal heavy, soft at the core
Gimme toro, gimme some more

Pressurize, neutralize
Deep fried, gimme some more

Space flunky, four on the floor
Fortified with the liqour store
This one's down, gimme some more
Gimme toro, gimme some more

Shrunken head I love to adore
B-movie, gimme some gore
Gimme toro, gimme some more
B-movie, gimme some gore

Gimme toro, gimme some more

"No One Knows"

[Verse 1:]
We get some rules to follow
That and this, these and those
No one knows
We get these pills to swallow
How they stick in your throat
Taste like gold
Oh what you do to me
No one knows

[Chorus:]
I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool am I

[Verse 2:]
I journey through the desert
Of the mind with no hope
I follow
I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboat in the sun
And come undone
Pleasantly caving in
I come undone

[Chorus:]
Heaven smiles above me
What a gift here below
But no one knows
The Gift you give to me
No one knows

"First It Giveth"

I'm in you
You're in me
I can't tell

You're so cruel
More than me
It is true
That's right

Loyal to
Only you
Up your sleeve

I want some (come on, take it)
of all of you (it's yours)
Trickin me

First it giveth
Then it taketh away

I would beg
I would plead
I would shake

On a hook
Dangling
By the way

I'm so young
And beautiful
(That's right)
(I'm slick)
I'm no fool

Time goes by
Tables turn
Now I know

First it giveth
Then it taketh away

"A Song For The Dead"

It's late enough to go drivin
And see what's mine
That's a study of dying
How to do it right
You're a holy roller
Get your bed in the loose
If you're hanging around
I'm holdin the noose

Come a little bit closer
And get on tight
In a hurse rollin over
Just a track in the line
Fuck it

Come on, let's go drivin
Come on, let's take a little ride
That's the study of dying
How to do it right

"The Sky Is Fallin'"

The sky is falling
Human race that we run
It left me crawling
Staring straight at the sun
Only a moment I notice
Every dog has his day
I paid attention
Cost me so much to today

For so long
I saw only wrong
But now to remind
It's a waste of time

Close your eyes and see the skies are falling

I wanted something
Nothing blank I don't know
It's all deflecting
Stones are easy to throw
Only a moment I notice
Hours, days left behind
Of wasted, useless
Selfless, none of a kind

For so long
I saw only wrong
But now to remind
Not to go back to the low
That has drained my life so low
That has drained my life so low
That has drained my life so low

Close your eyes and see the skies are falling

"Six Shooter"

Two glass eyes
I'll fuckin tell you lies
I'm on the side of the road
You won't fuckin die

Yeah, yeah
Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
Pow

Fuck this road
Well, fuck you too
I'll fuckin kill your best friend
What you fuckin gonna do

Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
Pow
Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
Pow
