And I love all this fuckin fame

Police State

I live in a police state
We're livin in a police state
Get your pig snout out of my face
Cause I'm...in a police state
Turn around tell me what you see
Flashing lights in the city streets
I see em everywhere
Smell of pigs is in the air
Cause I live in a police state
We're livin in a police state
They'll judge you by your race
Cause I'm...in a police state
Lock me up for a gram of weed
How many fuckin donuts can you eat
You power-tripping piece of shit
Through your window I'll throw a brick
Cause I live in a police state
We're livin in a police state
They follow me all over the place
Cause I'm...in a police state

I ain't no beach boy
Well I can't swim
If I go to a pool party
I won't jump in
I ain't no beach boy X3
I can't swim
I ain't no giddy kid X2
I ain't no goody two shoes
Son of a bitch
I ain't no surfer no no
Don't think it'd be nice if we were older
And I ain't pickin up no good vibrations
I don't wanna be apart of your elation
I ain't no beach boy X3
I can't swim
I ain't no giddy kid X2
I ain't no goody two shoes
Son of a bitch
I ain't no beach boy X3
no no no no
I ain't no beach boy X3
I ain't no beach boy!

Corporate Slave

I do coke at work
It's for efficiency's sake
My boss tells me to
I better not make a mistake
I work all day
There's a gun to my head
If I ever stop
Then surely...I'll be dead
Cause I'm a corporate slave
My life has no point
I'm a corporate slave
I never disappoint
I'm a corporate slave
Capitalism's biggest fan
I'm a corporate slave
I bow down...to the man
Work my way up
I'm on top of the chain
One wrong move
And it's all down the drain
I sold my soul
It belongs to the elite
Gotta do what I do
Just to make end's meat
Cause I am a corporate slave
I'm a corporate slave
I'm a corporate slave
I am a corporate slave
I'm a corporate slave
I'm a corporate slave

I Sold My Kidney

I sold my kidney
It wasn't for a good cause
I sold my kidney
It wasn't to replace my pa's
I sold my kidney
You'll never guess what for
I sold my kidney
Just to buy a lousy old guitar
Now I only have one kidney
I don't know what to do
I only have one kidney
They all call me one kidney Lou
I only have one kidney
I won't make it very far
I only have one kidney
But at least I got my lousy old, piece of shit guitar
Now I sit around all day
And I play the one kidney blues
Wrote a letter to my kidney
That said...I miss you

Alien Car

My car can fly
In the night sky
Open up the trunk
I bet you want have much luck
Cause I got a car from space
I got a car from space
It's such a disgrace
Havin a car from space
Repossession was hard
But now I'll be with the stars
All my friends have died
But at least my car can fly
The government is after me
This cars gonna set me free
But if the feds shoot me down
Then I'll be another clown
With a regular car
But no not me
Cause I got an alien car
Got an alien car
and I'll go pretty far
I got an alien car
Got an alien car
Got an alien car

A Man of the People
01:57
|
|||
|
I wanna be a man of the people
Kissin babies so I don't look evil
A scandal will ruin me
Kill anyone that gets in my way
I want to be politically minded X2
I love the patriarchy
No morals in my body
All my enemies will be dead
Just so I can get ahead
I want to be politically minded X2
Four more years
Don't care who I have to kill
I don't care what's in your pills
As long as I can get some power
And finally be the man of the hour
I want to be politically minded X2

Don't grow old
No don't grow old
If you don't wanna be miserable
Then don't grow old
Decrepit, deaf, and fat
I don't wanna be like that
Sit around all day on my ass
I just don't wanna be like that
So I won't grow old
No I won't grow old
If you don't wanna be miserable
Then don't grow old
Racist, mean, or dumb
I don't wanna be a bum
Boring corporate scum
I justdon't wanna be a bum
So I won't grow old
No I won't grow old
If you don't wanna be miserable
Then don't grow old
