Elvis said he’d rather see you dead Than with another man A jealous man doesn’t want to understand That the lives of his lover’s hands Are omnipresent Didn’t Jerry say That a woman should be trained like a bird dog? He knows how to lay But not how to be laid Because he’s so afraid to ask permission I heard Johnny killed Fifty condors on the trail Oh what a tale! I guess I never read a thing Carl said but I’ll tell you what he did He repeatedly stabbed David Bowie in that film Damn right he did It was a weird production

Conditionals 03:02
So many people I meet So many things I see Make me want to have a vasectomy Extractivism, Capitalism, Patriarchy These bullshit human projects don’t appeal to me If to survive it is to conform Then my feral child may not be born The kid friends I keep are so wise and free I hope to become their chosen family Generations of creation No responsibility All nations and all races gonna feel this thing If all the signs are gonna be ignored Then who of our kind will mind the store?

I want my undeveloped prefrontal cortex back I want to jump from the cliff into Candlewood Lake and make a splash I don’t want to think about those big rocks That wait below the surface To break all my bones And I don’t want to think of the incoming scars Don’t wanna pay no mind I wanna tap my cerebellum and leave the audience in a trance I want to sing my murder ballad With a head full of Day-Quil and Jack I don’t want to think about how my song Makes homicide romantic How you can hum along And I don’t want to think about your scars Only mine I don’t want to think of all the racist brainwash That I should be purging From the depths of my lobes I don’t think I want my undeveloped prefrontal cortex back Sure, the world seemed less repellent But there’s a deficit of conscious men

The little tent And the flannel vest Of the Trimmergrant Is there Buried behind the redwood curtain Of Alderpoint Where no marijuana grows unprotected “These are the last vestiges Of the Wild West”, He said. Have you seen me Or a F250? Collect the reward He lived by the code Code of the mountain goes: Take the law into your own hands
