JOHNNY AND MARY
vRobert Palmerv

Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint lonely

Mary counts walls, knows he tires easily

Johnny thinks the world would be right, if it would buy, truth from him
Mary says he changes his mind, more than a woman

But she made her bed, even when the chance was slim

Johnny says he's willing to learn, when he decides, he's a fool
Johnny say's he'll live any where, when he earns time to

Mary combs her hair, says she should be use to it

Mary always edges her bets, she never knows, what to think
She says that he still acts, like he's being discovered

Scared that he'll get caught, without a second thought

Johnny feels he's wasting his breath, trying to talk, sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real, sense of proportion
So she combs her hair, knows he tires easily

Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint lonely

Mary counts walls, says she should be use to it

LENI
vplacebov

I kneel before her, beneath this frozen sky
Beneath her shoulder, beneath her evil eye
She towers over this male who is a fly
My sci-fi lullaby

I kneel before her, beneath this frozen sky
I beg below her, my limbs are paralyzed
She beats me harder than any kind of guy
My sci-fi lullaby

BUBBLEGUN
vplacebov

Take this migraine everywhere I go
Take the fast lane everywhere I go
Take this migraine everywhere I go
Someday, gonna take it slow

Take this migraine everywhere I go
Take the fast lane everywhere I go
Take this migraine everywhere I go
Someday, gonna take it slow

I wanna turn you on
Feels like a loaded gun
Spit out your Bubblegum
I wanna .. Wanna ..

I wanna turn you on
Feels like a loaded gun
Spit out your Bubblegum
I wanna .. I Wanna ..

I wanna, I wanna
I wanna, I wanna cum

HOLOCAUST
vAlex Chiltonv

Your eyes are almost dead
can't get out of bed
And you can't sleep

You're sitting down to dress
and you're a mess
You look in the mirror

You look in your eyes
Then you realize

Everybody goes
leaving those
who fall behind

Everybody goes
as far as they can
They don't just care

They stood on the stairs
Laughing at your airs

Your mother's dead
She said
"Don't be afraid"

Your mother's dead
You're on your own
She's in her bed

Everybody goes
Leaving those
Who fall behind

Everybody goes
As far as they can
They don't just care

You're a wasted face
you're a sad-eyed lie
You're a holocaust

LITTLE MO
vPlacebov

In our pain and sinning fall
Accept peace and whine
Going bad and taking all this
It's of each and tide

Calling bean and sinning call
Now I'm neat and tight
Gonna crap with naked elders
It's a cheating high

Tonight, Jesus loves you

We are dead and cynical
Gonna be supplied
See the back with naked elders
It's so she can hide
But you don't crack on mainframe
But you don't crack on cocaine
You don't crack on seeing
Cheater, cheater

Tonight, Jesus loves you

Till our death and sinning call
It's so she can hide
All them fat and sacred elders
It's so bled and fried
But you don't crack on mainframe
But you don't crack on cocaine
You don't crack on seeing
Cheater, cheater

Tonight, Jesus loves you
Tonight .. lies tonight
