Well hello mr. businessman
You're looking kind of down
Come sit here bring your frown
I'll turn it upside down
Cause I will take you on a pleasure trip
Rid you of all your little pips
And I will be your pollyannaish friend
Your optimistic option in
This pessimistic world we live in
So swim on down the nothingness
For maybe on day you'll realize
You had the gift all along

Living my life as I see fit
I don't see why they'd ruin it
Haven't done anything wrong
But I'm still running as I sing this song
I just wanna keep floating along
I'm not doing a damn thing wrong
Just Us please don't catch up to me
You came knocking on my front door
Where you never really belonged
Just Us please just let me be
People say I play too loud
But do they really listen (no)
Do the men in blue protect
Or serve a broken system (yup)
I just wanna keep floating along
I'm not doing a damn thing wrong
Just Us please don't catch up to me
You came knocking on my front door
Where you never really belonged
Just Us please just let me be
Might be ten too many laws
But that never stopped the chase (no)
Just Us might just turn you raw
But I guess that's the price you pay (ok)
I just wanna keep floating along
I'm not doing a damn thing wrong
Just Us please don't catch up to me
You came knocking on my front door
Where you never fucking belonged
Just Us please just let me be

I strongly dislike you
The shrink doesn't like me using 'hate'
But every time you come around
I feel like putting you in the ground
I bet the only reason
That I'm alive today
Is cause I can smell your imitation perfume
From 300 yards away
Well if you look at me again
I'll cut your eyes out
And feed 'em to those ugly fish that you adore
So I'd never set foot here again
Unless your dying wish is filled with pain
Get way out of my life and go straight to hell!
(i really wanna kill you)
(well that's tough love)
(that's tough love)
A buddy told me all those times I've dreamed of killing kittens
Really mean I'm hurting the one I love
So I went straight away to the doctor
And I told him that I was ill
Well he gave a little bottle
Of some pretty darn good sleeping pills
Now I'm getting along just fine
I only think about you from noon to nine
I laugh at the lonely bastard your laying with tonight
Well if you look at me again I'll cut your eyes out
And feed 'em to those ugly little fish that you adore
So I'd never set foot here again
Unless your dying wish is filled with pain
Get way out of my life and go straight to hell!

God is great and God is good
He will treat you like you should
God is great and God is good
He'll make you see like you never would
Drugs are bad, drugs are evil
They will give you a red-hot fever
Yeah drugs are bad and drugs are evil
They will make you a non-believer
So come on down to your church in town
And give and give and give your last crown
Yeah come on down we're waiting for you
We'll stand and sing and you should too.
Well God said, "Jesus is a son of mine"
He made things out of wood and turned water into wine
God said, "Jesus is a son on mine"
Then he died cause you're weak but he's doing just fine
So you better not sin, yeah and sex can wait
Cause he'll be back again to destroy all the hate
So you better not sin, or we'll commiserate
For the fiery pits are bound to be your fate
So come on down to your church in town
And give and give and give your last crown
Yeah come on down we're waiting for you
We'll stand and sing and you should too
(repeat)

Acne wash no more gloss on my face
Well things been looking up these days
I hope that they will wanna stay
I can hear the music in my speakers
This song can't be made by fakers, no
So deceivers turn the other way
While I have my date with the ticker-tape parade

Went into the doctor
Complaining of some pain
He said sonny Jim
For you I got just the thing
He turned me over
Rolled up my sleeve
Took a needle and he did this little jig
He injected drugs straight into my vein
Well I never knew that I could feel so great!
(doo da da doo do da).....
Let me tell you a story
I can't feel anything anymore
It's all these drugs, all these drugs
Their in my veins, Their rotting my brain away

Monotonous Bliss

Well I went down to the corner store
To get my prescription filled
Not too much to my surprise
I saw many faces in a line
I watched each name get called
Red, white and blue-colored pills
I get my whatever-it's-called
And I leave their painted outcomes behind...
...Lost in my fluffy green chair
My mind's still talking its shit
Well I'm still sick and
I'd scream and fit but now I just don't care...
(ahh ahhh...)
Then I come to
Same old shoes
Empty still again
Pondering time spent
Chime! the clock says
Now stand-up that's progress
I put on my shoes and walk right out the door
Just to do it again
(ahh ahhhh!...)

My mouth is a fire
My brain is ash
My fingers are burning
Cause I'm way past due to crash
So I laugh
For it's sensible not to
And I stare
For I am not aware
A few grand away it's day
Hey maybe sleep's that way
I'm sure I'll go to loon
For soon's surely not that soon
So I touch
For I am a machine of love
I sigh
For one day I will die
(repeat)

Everything recycles
The circle is the box
I said everything recycles
The circle is the box
Well the inside's the outskirts yeah
Color is the waste
Life is only seen at death
I said color is the waste
Life is only seen at death
Well it's self-reflexive evaluation
You see a hobo on a bench
He's got himself in a bad pinch
But is it so bad?
He got more money than you
With your fancy car
And your credit cards
And your hairdo
You get your blanket
And you wrap yourself inside
It keeps you warm for now

I like vegetables
Crunch tastes yum
I want to howl at the sun!
I believe me
I see you
Feel the running beat...
You know nothing
Business is good
The world breathes
We are me
We are dying
I know nothing, at all
(why, old age causes cancer)
You wait for rain
I sing in the shade
Heroes make legends
Legends never die
We are meat
I like your hat
You are dying
Don't stop crying
Say hi to your mother for me
She's waiting in the shade

We've got feelings to show
And all these places to go
But what we still can't understand
Is our purpose in these plans
Who knows!
We'll never see (we can't see)
Trees come up
(then fall down)
And sailors are free
(till they hit the ground)
Waves crash!
They're fingers seizing land for the sea
It takes you and me...

Slavkosky Los Angeles, California
From the eastern tobacco plains to the tall lonely mountains of the northwest fall renditions of electro-halcyon tenacity a bit off from the analog status quo.
Slavkosky recommends:
"On The Second Moon Of Earth"
by Side Brain
Side Brain simply has an impressive arsenal of sound. There isn't much needing said, except that he uses a monome, some glove apparatus and a converted old 6-button joystick to make sounds. Whoa.
