clench | dutch arse | why? | the line | tundra | paper towels | celebrity | k.c.'s dead | wait for some | spank me | head

clench
save me
hold me
crave me
mold me
slave me
scold me

bake me
eat me
take me
treat me
break me
beat me

trap me
fill me
zap me
thrill me
snap me
kill me



dutch arse
ROTTING STENCH
ITCHING FLESH
GREASY THREADS IN A RANCID MESH

chorus:
SPINNING SYMBOLS
IT'S POURING DOWN
SCALD THE SKIN
I'LL NEVER DROWN

FEEL THE RUSH
DOWN MY SPINE
TO A POOL OF GRIT AND GRIME

bridge:
STINGING FOAM BLURS MY VISION
EPIDERMAL ABLUTION

GRAVITATION IS THE CURE
HYDROPLANING MAKES ME PURE



why?
Why the hell am I treated this way?
There are so many things which I cannot say
Peers and preachers, they drag me down
The Scream of my Youth, a deadly sound

What the hell do they want from me?
I've got so much pain and agony
Confusion haunts me day and night
"Life sucks," a saying, true but trite

Where the hell do they want me to go?
Where are the blessings that good lives bestow?
They say that they don't want me to get hurt
They make themselves proud, make me feel like dirt

Who the hell do they want me to be to be?
They view only things which I cannot see
Let those with no sin cast the first stone
When the hell will they leave me alone?

chorus:
Why?
Why do they want me to die?
I don't want to die
I want to know why



the line
Now I'm standing in a line, wasting all my precious time
Just waiting for a chance to step ahead
I'm looking for a friend, cause I'm stuck here at the end
Just trying to find a place to jump ahead

chorus:
When I see the lady standing
Behind that huge desk motioning
To the next person in this damn
Line that it's his turn to move on up...
I wish it were me

No matter how I try, just barely getting by
I'm struggling but not even coming close
I'm pushing heavily on the one in back of me
Just making people cry, not getting close

bridge:
My legs are getting tired
My feet are getting sore
Quite sick of being patient
Cause my life is such a bore

I'm finally almost there, no more stagnant air
I'm now the second person in the line
Before the desk I stand, I touch it with my hand
What will I do after I've left the line?



tundra
Once there was a real cold man
Who had a master plan
He tried to rule the land
With a little gun in his hand

He wouldn't go away
Though almost every day
He heard the people say
"We wanna blow him away"

chorus:
He's a god, got a gun, but he's not the only one
He's big, so strong, won't be around for long
(repeat)

He had a big, blue eye
The color of the sky
It used to make them cry
But they never really knew why

It tore into their soul
And made them lose control
Of their body as a whole
That was its only role


And once upon a time
On the land covered in rime
With an act quite sublime
He was punished for his crime

For neglecting to feed
Those who were in need
To pay for his greed
They made the man bleed

chorus:
He's a god, got a gun, but he's not the only one
He's big, so strong, won't be around for long

No, not for long, in the tundra



paper towels
When I was just a little bitty punk
I used to get headaches when I thunk
About the fears I hated, the hates I feared
And why this friggin' place is so weird, but hey!

chorus:
I GOT MY NAME ON PAPER TOWELS
GOT MY NAME ON PAPER TOWELS
MY NAME'S PRINTED ON TOILET PAPER
I GOT MY NAME ON PAPER TOWELS, YEAH!

And why'd Miss Williams yell at me
When I sat in my friend Scott Stewart's seat?
She told me to sit there the day before
And now she's mad, that crazy, old, dirty...
(I thought it was a permanent seat change)
But hey!

bridge:
MY NAME IS ON TV
IT'S ON THE BATHROOM WALL
EVERYBODY MUST KNOW ME
I'M NEXT TO EVERY TOILET IN THE MALL

And I remember very well
Typing dirty words on the Speak N' Spell
With Tony Garza, one of my best pals
So why'd he claw my face off with his Freddy Krueger nails? But hey!



celebrity
I just want to be me, and that I can
It's time to understand that I care
I don't feel like running anymore
I can't run anymore

chorus:
An eye for an eye, I feel no sorrow
Back again, I will not follow
Never again

Trust me once and I shall never fail
You again, you've nothing to fear but fear, my friend
Don't worry, the walls won't talk
But my heart is open

bridge:
I admire your emotion
It's your most great devotion
It's the best part of you
And you know it's true

All the attention you receive, your willing to be it
A true gift from the heart, and only you
Could ever part with it
Only you could part with it

bridge 2:
Now what you choose is your choice
You're a man, so stop the noise
And bury the hate and protect the voice
That you've always had I feel no sorrow
I will not follow
Never again



k.c.'s dead
I got lots of money
And a messed up wife
I'm gonna kill myself
Because I hate my life

chorus:
OW, MY TUMMY!
MY LIFE SUCKS!
I HATE NIRVANA
AND I DON'T GIVE A...

No one needs me around
I'm not trying to be mean
To my devoted fans
Or my little Frances Bean

bridge:
I just want to be me
Not be famous or be cool
I'm gonna end it all
Let Trent and Eddie rule

I am Kurdt Cobain
Point a 12-gauge at my head, wait...
I was Kurdt Cobain
But now I am dead



wait for some
See not hear, hear not see
Just be all that you can be
No, the army's not for me
What is? Well, I'll just wait and see

chorus:
WAIT FOR SOME'
WAIT FOR SOME'
WAIT FOR SOME'
WAIT FOR SOMETHING, YEAH

No one goes 'cause no one knows
Tryin' to find the way to go
Gonna follow where the wind blows
Which way? Well, I just don't know

Losing time, got time to lose
I don't mind if I sit and snooze
I'd rather take my time to choose
But why? I'd rather wait than lose

bridge:
what I'm gonna do what I'm gonna be what I'm goin' thru what I'm gonna see
sit on the floor, butt getting numb, look at the door, 'cause I'm...

WAIT'N FOR SOME'!



spank me
Well, I went into your room and I
Saw the posters on your wall
Smiled and I said to myself
"Aw, yeah... I'm gonna have a ball"

chorus:
Spank me like a monkey
Spank me like a little wet monkey

Well, I snuck beneath your mattress and I
Saw the pornographic mags
Between your fluffy white sheets
Now you'd better use as rags

Well, I stayed in there for hours and I
Probably would have never stopped
If you had not caught us
Aw, man, your jaw wasn't all that dropped

Spank me.



head
Tell me now how could she be so blind?
I knew we couldn't get it back, it was far behind
I knew from the start that it would end like this
My attempts at love are always hopeless

chorus:
PUT A BULLET IN MY HEAD
OH, I WOULD RATHER BE DEAD
THAN HAVE HER CONTROL MY HEAD
KILL MY HEAD

It's taken time, now, far, far, far too long
To realize that this whole damn thing was wrong
It's time to get back to the way things used to be
No one can hold me back, I pledge I will be free

BULLET IN MY HEAD
IT'S TAKEN OVER MY HEAD
ENIGMATIC HEAD
MY HEAD

Trying to breathe is getting to be too much a chore for me.
Trying to breathe is getting to be too much.

BULLET IN MY HEAD
I WOULD RATHER BE DEAD
THAN HAVE HER CONTROL MY HEAD
KILL MY HEAD

PUT A BULLET IN MY HEAD
BULLET IN MY HEAD
BULLET IN MY HEAD
HEAD
