living in the land of the stripes and the stars
i can't do shit if i don't have a car
if you park in the wrong set of lines
get left bereft by the heftiest fines
it's all a scam
it's a big money grab
the automobile that i'm forced to have
where am i supposed to park this piece of shit?
"somewhere else, asshole, you ain't got the permit"
driving like a jackass
i'm circling the block
burning up my gas, putting miles on the clock
if i park it somewhere i don't pay the rent
city's gonna take me for every last cent
it's something new
i gotta pay for
every fucking day
i didn't ask to exist
why you gonna make me pay?
ticket me, asshole
soon it'll be your turn to pay

i'm a fuck up
i suck
i'm a fuck up
i suck
i'm a fuck up
i suck
i fuck everything up
all i do is disappoint
get me out of this joint
i deserve nothing but a bullet in the head
fuck up deep, fuck up wide
life's a slow suicide
what's the point in trying?
i should've stayed in bed
i'm a fuck up
i suck
i'm a fuck up
i suck
i'm a fuck up
i suck
i fuck everything up
i'm a fuck up
I suck
i'm a fuck up
i suck
i'm a fuck up
i fucking suck

luxury condos

every other week something gets torn down
to build luxury condos in someone's town
another community space got paved
so some asshole could build a wine cave
i don't want you rich fucks
i don't want you rich fucks
i don't want you rich fucks
in my place
i don't want you rich fucks
i don't want you rich fucks
get this bougie bullshit
out of my face
every other week something gets torn down
to build luxury condos in my town
gentrification and corporate greed
i wanna rip you out, you're a fucking weed
i don't want you rich fucks
i don't want you rich fucks
i don't want you rich fucks
in my town
no more luxury condos
no more luxury condos
gonna burn those motherfuckers down

diminishing returns
01:23
|
|||
false promises got made
best of plans were mislaid
developments delayed
hope for future
it fades
you expect me to work
but give me nothing to work for
tell me to shut my mouth
and never think to ask for more
i'm getting diminishing returns
i'm watching my world burn
i'm getting diminishing returns
when will you fucking learn?
false promises got made
best of plans were mislaid
keep us starved and afraid
living just to get paid
we work and slave our lives away
while pigs hoard all the wealth
don't try to convince me this is life
can't even convince yourself
we're getting diminishing returns
we're watching our world burn
we're getting diminishing returns
when will you fucking learn?

who laid out this fucking town?
i can't find my way around
just when i think i'm on track
i am forced to double back
every fifteen feet i shout
"another fucking roundabout?!?!?
who the fuck builds roads this way?!?
someone's gonna have to pay"
they don't want you to get out
they don't want you to get out
they don't want you to get out
they'd fix it otherwise
this whole state's laid out like shit
don't know who signed off on it
some motherfucker who owned slaves
i wanna shit on his grave
they did no fucking work
just poured asphalt over dirt
no one has what they need
don't have tools to succeed
they don't want you to get out
they don't want you to get out
they don't want you to get out
they'd fix it otherwise
if you wanna find your way,
build your own new roads today
no one's who's in charge
is gonna give you the supplies
driving in circles and we're going nowhere
it's not that we can't fix it, it's that nobody cares
the government would rather spend the money on bombs
and it extracts it from the line cooks and the soccer moms
so we all get stuck in traffic and we sit there like jerks,
'cause ain't no money to be made in funding systems that work
so if you're sick of all the bullshit and you want what you're owed,
you gotta get yourself the tools you need to build your own roads

there's a war in my head
and no matter who wins,
i lose
There's always voices calling, laughing screaming in my mind
There's never any quiet why is peace so hard to find?
Couldn't stop them if I wanted to, I don't know what the fuck to do
They tell me to be angry and they tell me to be mean
They say not to believe a single fucking thing I've seen
With thoughts like that in my head,
it'll be no wonder when I wind up dead
They don't have nothing nice to say, they tell me to get fucked
They only want what's worst for me I'm set to self-destruct
A passing urge they make it linger,
Where's the trigger? Here's my finger
They've taken everything from me and still they scream for more
I give and give it's not enough what do I bother for?
With thoughts like that in my head,
it'll be no wonder when I wind up dead
Life's not easy, life's not fun
Plant a big sloppy kiss on the barrel of a gun
Don't have to struggle, it's easy to see
My life's a fucking joke and everyone's laughing but me
Ha ha ha when I wind up dead
Ha ha ha when I wind up dead
"Uh yeah, I always kinda figured one day, he'd, ya know, wind up dead"
