Less Than Zero (<0) My reflection as that shadow's blessing my death Last soul in agony meet machine tragedy God if you love me, then why won't you set me free I don't have call-waiting, hey, was that you pranking me?

Todd's Ship Gods (Above All Things) Grease, sweat, coffee, faded shipyard pictures Giant living there I used to know Author of the testosterone scriptures Where did you go? Now I remember what he told me that time Falling from my bike, scraping my knee: "If you're gonna weep, keep it from sunshine, so no one sees" I won't cry - "Above all things boy, be a man" See little boy hiding amongst shadows Ashamed of tears exposing ancient pain From the storms predicted by the Tarot: Pray for the rain I won't cry - "Above all things boy, be a man" 5. I Like Goils Forget the jar of Vaseline Hey rich-bitch boy I'm not gonna be your queen And yeah, You can drool, beg me and hope There's no damn way I'm playing drop the soap OK, I know I'm strange but I ain't no queer So take your rage and disappear But I'm proud not to be PC 'Cause - I like goils Bad goils all over this world Now I don't know whose ass you've licked No shit-tongued boy will ever taste my dick He says: "How 'bout no sex - we'll just be friends?"

Let the punishment fit the crime Bad things come to those in all good time My mistake was to put you first Deceitful bubble was so soon to burst I asked you - believe in just us Now my faith lie in mine own justice How many times must I say I'm not sorry? And how many ways can I show I don't care? Rotting bodies of enemies Cannot smell sweet enough to me What is the price of a friend Who would carry out revenge? In this bleak world of absent laws One in which the just are whores An honor to die for the truth Eye for an eye, tooth for tooth How many times must I say I'm not sorry? And how many ways can I show I don't care? 7. How Could She?

Doctors and thieves, they both wear masks Overpaid meat magicians Life is killing me Your doctorate and Ph.D. Would wipe my ass etched in feces Will not cure your affliction Doctors Jeckyll or Mengele And your face too, they're just a blur Can't improve my condition Life is killing me Appointment made, waited three hours Did not realize you had such power I'd rather see a mortician Your parents saved or had the bucks Your education stems from luck Future corpse: death by physician I have no choice: devoid of rights So pull the plug, it's my damned life Keep me alive to increase your bill A Red Cross hell? - the hospital!

(We Were) Electrocute We were electrocute In our has-been 1980's suits So electrocute Everyone we knew said it was true That's when even strangers knew our names Ten year's later sighed "what a shame" We were electrocute To make the point again is moot Ssssssso electrocute How on you I've wasted my youth Your cold eyes of Coney Island sand Hair dyed the blood of a foolish man So proud to be by your side We were a team no one denied Even though I still miss your lips You're about as real as your tits 11. IYDKMIGTHTKY (Gimme That) It's been doing some thinking And felt fair that she should know All actions in which partake Are far beyond it's control Whether it was born or bred (Genetic, Environment) I wouldn't bother to ask it why Simply concentrate on when It lies awake, yes, quite obsessed Making plans but It won't tell So longs to hear her final words: "I brought this on myself" The theory of futility Now you'll learn, so be prepared Enemies are equal to Wrath times the speed of fright squared If you don't kill me I'm going to have to kill you... you-who My God helps those who help themselves Of thus, she shant be ashamed Crawl into line and wait your turn Remember Jesus slaves Department of Probation: "Legally It can't be blamed, held therefore unaccountable since It's clinically insane - what a shame again" If you don't kill me I'm going to have to kill you... you-who You must decide We're out of time No place to hide Your choice, not mine! 12.

Anesthesia Like a flash of light in an endless night Life is trapped between two black entities 'Cause when you trust someone, illusion has begun No way to prepare, impending despair Did one say so cruel: "Tis better to love than lose" Ignorance is bliss - wish not knew your kiss So many times been burned, this lesson goes unlearned Remember desire only fuels the fire - liar Betwixed birth and death, every breath regret I pity the living, envy for the dead Emotionally stunned, in defense, I'm numb I'd rather not care than to be aware - be scared I don't need love Are a thousand tears worth a single smile? When you give an inch, will they take a mile? Longing for the past but dreading the future If not being used, well then you're a user and a loser World renowned failure at both death and life Given nothingness, purgatory blight To run and hide, a cowardly procedure Options exhausted, except for anesthesia - anesthesia I don't feel anything. 14. Drunk In Paris 15. The Dream Is Dead Champagne glass of blood and wine On chocolate hearts alone I dine Candles weeping waxing tears Ten for roses each one a year - disappear Arrows fester in my heart Each memory another dart Love and death both colored red Showing my past, the dream is dead Another lonely Valentine's Day I can't believe that things turned out this way And though I hate to see you go I know it must be so Another lonely Valentine's Day Nobody will break your fall All for none, yeah, none for all Nothing's so cruel as the truth Join the Festival of Fools Nobody will break your fall All for one, yeah, none for all Nothing's so cruel as the truth Join the festival, my fools Another lonely Valentine's Day I can't believe things turned out this way And though I hate to see you go I know it must be so Another lonely Valentine's Day The dream is dead
