Don't be an Arsehole

There was thunder and there was lightning
and God did call him to the mountain top.
He said Moses you look like Charlton Heston,
Heres a few things that I’m requesting
I’ve watched you mob stealing and lying and coveting stuff
The angels and I..we’ve all had enough
So Ive spoken to Allah and Bhuda and the Elephant headed guy
and we’ve come up with a few rules you should try
Covet thy Neighbours wife
Dont be an Asshole
Covet thy Neighbours life
Dont be an Asshole
Covet thy Neighbours Goat
Dont be an Asshole
Covet thy Neighbours boat
Dont be an Asshole
Covet thy Neighbours rings
Dont be an Asshole
Covet thy Neighbours things
Dont be an Asshole
Covet thy Neighbours
Dog Dont be an Asshole
Covet thy Neighbours grog
Dont be an Asshole
And the trumpet did sound again,
and once more did god appear before man
He said I’ve returned to make some revisions
to update my coommandments for modern living
Of those former commandments of ten
I’m afraid I fear for the attention span of men
So Ive returned to truncate, streamline and trim
Now you only gotta remember just one thing
I was visited by an angel in the middle of the night.
He didnt look like an Angel more like a homeless guy
He said to me Randy can you lend me a dime.
Cause all of us Angels ...we’ve fallen on hard times.
He told me he saw Kelly at a second hand store...
He was pawning his rings...
He was pawning his wings...
so we grabbed up a second hand Takamine and we gave it a burl...and together we made this tune for the world...

I drank a mother load on Monday
You know it didnt touch the sides
I smoked the forest down on Tuesday
but it just made me feel so tired
I licked a toad on the Wednesday
Got some warts on my tongue
Had some pills on the Thursday
they made me feel slightly numb
I keep missing you and I’m not even high
Fuck this being a sensitive new age guy
I gotta get myself distracted
Give myself something to do
Find myself another purpose
One that doesnt involve you
Maybe I could go to paintball
or take up some exotic dance
Or maybe visit the casino
and get in some old woman pants
I keep missing you and I’m not even high
Fuck this being a sensitive new age guy
Fuck this for a joke
I was never given skills to cope
Maybe to Ill step outside
and just get into my car and drive

What I Want

If its alright I'll show you what I want
If its alright I'll show you what I want
I'll learn this lesson that could not be taught
If its alright I'll show you what I want
It may seem lonely now but its
warm in this place
It may seem distant now but I
Love it out in space
You say it like a bad thing
I don't see it that way
No one understands
The price they have to pay
If its alright I'll show you what I want
If its alright I'll show you what I want
I'll learn this lesson that could not be taught
If its alright I'll show you what I want
Iím not disengaged
Iím just thinking this through
When itís time to jump
Thatís exactly what Iíll do
I wish that this was easier
But life ain't that way
First I'll run and hide but then
I'll do it anyway
I want to show you now
There's a lot going on
I wish that you could see
This implosion is not wrong
If its alright I'll show you what I want
If its alright I'll show you what I want
I'll learn this lesson that could not be taught
If its alright I'll show you what I want

Iron Lung

I can see a life here
Just follow the road
We know it leads
To the mother load
Got a car and some tunes
And someone I owe
Playing empty rooms
Songs they don't know
All my friends are rock stars
Sex and drugs crashed my car
Into the heart of the sun
Fist fights with hangovers
No fun when we're sober
Get me to my iron lung
And if you see me fall
Do nothing at all
And if you see me fall
Do nothing at all
Do nothing at all
Do nothing at all
You know how it ends
You know I don't
I follow broken dreams
Because I know you won't
It's the air I breathe
It keeps me alive
Up there I'm flying
Down here I'll die
All my friends are rock stars
Sex and drugs crashed my car
Into the heart of the sun
Fist fights with hangovers
No fun when we're sober
Get me to my iron lung
Tears rolling down my face
(Do nothing)
Hunched up on the floor
(Do nothing)
Blood streaming from my ears
(Do nothing)
Passed out on the stairs
(Do nothing)
Do nothing at all
Do nothing at all
Do nothing at all
Do nothing at all

Lately I've been writing on the wall
Bigger letters now though I started small
From what ive seen you don't mind at all
Its the way it goes you know we had a ball
It seems to me that something could be wrong
It looks like I may not be so strong
It seems to me that something could be wrong
There's something here telling me I need
To be free
To be free
To be free
To be free
I can feel the decay in my bones
Desires fade but scared to be alone
You'll understand you haven't see the fall
My heart keeps time it's safe behind this wall
Blood flows within these tired veins too slow
Can't wait here to be hunted so I'll go
Blood flows within these tired veins too slow
This same old beat is telling me I need
To be free
To be free
To be free
To be free
Not broken I can leave by the front door
Its ok here but I know I need more
You'll watch me leave and wonder if im right
I'll slip away no reasons left to fight
But This dull ache keeps me safe and keeps me here
Is it too much I can lose or just fear
This dull ache keeps me safe and keeps me here
In this comfy cage all I can do is dream
To be free
To be free
To be free
To be free
