Bent Straight

Well I was bent down over a frying pan
Had a solid gold spoon in my frying hand
Tell ya when the grease was flying we was riding high
Right up on that old hog that was going dry
Then the shit hits the fan
And they're dropping like flies
And your mama's outta money
And she won't say why
Then a bolt comes down from Heaven
Like god don't give a fuuuuck
Lights fire to your feet
And it stands you right up
I'm bent straight from it all
Put the money on the dresser
We won't tell a soul
Bleeding in the streets with his pants on fire
Like the Liar-in-chief the banker holla for a dolla
Count your money it don't pay to be shy
They bout to cut you for nickle here in two months time
Oh the shit's hit the fan
and they're dropping like flies
All the neighbors outta money
Any fool can see why
Then a bolt comes down from Heaven
Like god don't give a fuuuuck
Singeing off your eyebrows
Gonna stand you right up ya say
Please help me
(Indignant rant)
We can't go out to the discotec
We can't go out to the restaurant
We can't go and watch the basketball
We can't go nowhere, just the same four walls
Everybody wants to go back in time
What will happen when we're finally free
Now we see how it can fall apart
(Indignant rant)
Bent straight, I'm a straight bender
Clogging up the highways in their SUV's
Cause they're tired of the doctor stompin' on their freedoms
A bolt comes down from Heaven like god don't give a fuuuuck
And you're the last one standing
I'm bent straight from it all

Kissing Contest

Pucker up buttercup
Times are strange oh yes they are
The shelves are empty in the land of plenty
Kinda wonder how we got this far
Rockin' in the free world with pandemic shiver
Shits Creek raging to a sweaty river
Strap it in Slim
We're on a ride to nowhere
Got a case of beans and the heebie jeebies
A pair of Ray Bans for my 1000 yard stare
Watching my TV don't know who's selling truths
Put colloidal silver in my vodka and vermouth
Ch:
Now I'm competing in a kissing contest
Never thought that I would end up here
Put the crown on the winner baby
They'll send you home on a gilded gurney
I'm making out in a kissing contest
Oh can't you wait to swap the spit of sickness
Line it up and lay on me baby
Winner take all, I'm going for the golden trophy
*cough* *cough*
Take a pill Phil
I got a whole stockpile of little helpers
Ain't seen nothing yet - is it us cheating death?
Probably should've listed to those Doomsday preppers
All I know is I got mine and the rest can hang
Ain't no shame - it's the American way
Chorus.
Yeah!

Love In The Time Of
04:18

Love in the time of...
I'd like to see you so closely but I can't
Reaching out through distances so vast
Your voice electric in my ears
Wish I had you close to me right here
Your kiss would be the end of me
You steal my heart, I cannot breathe
Your fire is my fever high
Your warm embrace from which I die
Love in the time of...
I'd love to see you so closely in my room
Instead of screens away, come true
Your touch electric on my skin
Wish I had the fortitude within
Your hands upon me would be doom
Two weeks away, another moon
Your loving eyes look on in fear
Two weeks away, your drying tears
Love in the time of world-stopping terror
Two hearts beating faster and faster
Love in the time of catastrophic failure
Two lungs fighting inside a chest
Love in the time of choking horror
Two loves passing in the night
Love in the time like we've never seen before
Will I ever feel you again?

Better Than Everything

What's better than everything?
What if I told you a truth
Just take my hand and I'll show you
A worldview you don't have to doubt
Just get inducted in the cult
Your life is in the finest hands
No need to try and understand
Keep you from the ones you fear
We'll protect what you hold ear
What's better than everything?
Put your values on the block
The highest bidder takes the lot
All your questions finally asked
Just don't try to lift the mask
No Kool-Aid for you to drink
We'll just show you what to think
What's better than everything?
An answer for anything - doesn't matter what
What's better than everything?
Truly being lead - it's beautiful! Beautiful!
What's better than everything?
An escape from the endless maze of freedom
What's better than everything?
One man who can do it all for you

Uncharted Waters

We're in uncharted waters friend
We ain't never been here before
We're in uncharted waters friend
I don't see this on the map
Going by the stars
Going by the light of the moon
Everything's turned around
Where are we now?
We're in uncharted waters friend
We ain't never been here before
Where are the landmarks that history gave us?
Where are the landmarks that history gave us?
I'd call the captain but he's out of his goddamn mind
I'd call the bo'sun but I'm not even sure what he does
Who's steering this thing?
Jesus! God help us!
What are we doing?
OH MY GOD
We're in uncharted waters friend
We ain't never been here before
It's so fucking absurd
Test, test, check, check
This a test of the emergency broadcast system
EVERYBODY'S FUUUUUUCKED
Oh take me home
We're in uncharted waters friend
We ain't never been here before
We're in uncharted waters friend
I don't see this on the map
