PUNK BAND

Once upon a time I used to play in a punk band
I did my time once, wouldn't do it again
I was 18 sucking up, falling off my drum throne and getting up
Pretending I don't give a fuck
Believe me, don't leave me behind
I can't have been the only one like this
You dance with your 40 oz spilling in stripes
I really hate to be the one to tell you
It becomes more of a conversation piece
Believe me, you'll get left behind if you don't leave out
The ABC's of nobodies, belief is not a right
They weren't exactly mean to me, but they sure as hell weren't nice
Go figure, huh?
I remembered your face and recognized the exquisite stretch of your earlobes
Sagging now
I knew I knew you from somewhere I just couldn't place it
An article inside the city paper
Believe me, don't leave me behind it won't stop there
If it did, then I wouldn't care
Oh baby baby boy
The ABC's of nobodies, belief is not a right
No empathy or basic hygiene
And everyone's so nice
I know that's right
I'm growing up, not as good as I once was
But I'm as good once as I'll ever be, right?
Right

THE ONLY THING

I fucked up at work so I cried in the bathroom
Watched whirls of hair on the floor
I felt like a failure so I cried in the bathroom
Double checked to see that I'd locked the door
Revisionist history, and same day delivery
Your pupils fix, recalcitrant
This telegram is for me but
The only thing is you
Well the day is not half over so staying in here
Unfortunately is not an option for me
You know I'm only allowed five odd minutes escape
Before they coming looking after me to gape at my indecency
"The fuck out my face" I'll say to them and myself
Now I know it's ridiculous, but so is the fact that
The only thing is you

SENESCENCE

I tried to fix the sink
Watched a video and everything
Pulled some piping now I'm in the drink
and the kitchen overflowed
Guess you can't teach the elderly
I stopped developing at 17
Never got taller just embarrassing
But in that time I learned
Senescence is waiting for you
Let it have you whole, I know
The harder we work to prevent it
The closer it'll hit to home
I took an oatmeal bath
To soothe the swelling in my autograft
Displaced the water now I'm flailing at
The rising tide I made for myself
I really tried to save my skin
Everyday I wake up deteriorating
A little more and though no one can tell
It's evident to me
Senescence is waiting for you
Let it have you whole, I know
The harder we work to prevent it
The closer it'll hit to home

The wonderful shape of things! This attacks my senses in all the good ways: Catchy melody - Check! Surprising still - Check! No simple straightforward 4 beat - Check! A music that growls and weeps - Check! Ahhh.... this is so guuuuuud!
