Back Pocket Pop 01:34
lyrics
buy track
Back pocket pop, yarn and nylon Hip contour, look hand drawn with a crayon If I tell her "If I drill a hole your drawers I promise you won’t be sorry but tomorrow you’ll be sore" Could be hard at work or hardly working Novelty mug for smirks, I earned from ex-girlfriends Descendants of wolves ride in purses Purse lips, utter curse words, and bite their girlfriends So a frail smile curdles into Hell Rell With the shell grill, got scar gills Goth girls, sexy drunk dial Rage mail scratched by cat nail blackmail An off the rail voicemail ‘bout a bottle of pills (But) beautiful, see the glass as ample When I look through and see who guzzled half my booze Why use words, spare you nuisance It’s none of your business but right under your nose Why use words, spare you nuisance Soft breeze disturbs the door bead strings Chastity belt increase depth of ass creases Sagging khakis, brown paper bag creases Fig leaf hanging by a thread piece Parks and staircases, risky striptease Risky striptease

Behold the Specimen 02:03
lyrics

Beauty of a baby in mint condition Behold the specimen, behold your precious More details on file, future crime Fit the punishment applied as a wee child Before big words, thought bees were small birds Revenge of the retard No heart, no street smarts Idiot savants who can’t depart the apartment "You could be right" The first skull fracture from expansion Nude burpees at gunpoint dancing ‘Tween “D” and “F” is “E” for effort One of seven vuvuzelas Whatever’s clever, fur is murder If you prefer leather, grower not a shower Polar shower or whatever Sevens and sixes, the past is dominoes

Skeletool Leatherman, CX Leatherman Avirex letterman flaps in the wind Running with bat wings and matching Timbs The kidnap kit, gag balls for gimps Duct tape for limb, mermaid fin your legs Read the zodiac, year of the metal rat Better cheddar, make a trap trigger attractive I recline on my elbow Stay low (so) when I fall, hit the ground slowly Say no to the bonsai willow A dime of mellow, my mind’s pillow Pink tinsel, frightfully chintzy Bow and curtsey, delightful, whimsy Birthday minstrel side gig, moonlit At the red light district Half tax to the pimp half tricked off on a mistress Shiny side semi-transparent mirror Panopticon, UFC Octagon Skeleton, Dr. Octagon Steinbach, back to Ottawa, shout out to Christopher A bruise, a scar, jaguar fur Talent show, freestyling word salad Talent show, Germanic murder ballad Castanets, trumpet snippets Punch digits on Texas Instruments Fake Canada Goose space suits Hi-tech hunting tools, all hail Mac the Moose! Idle hands peep the golden calf award Turn a microphone to a gramophone horn If you live lore you can joust on unicorns Kick a door waving a forearm Defenestrate the kid the fuck out the fourth floor "When I was a boy, I loved to play the drum. Overcome" "Nothing is really very serious"

Sooner or Later We're Dead 02:09
lyrics

Sooner or later we’re dead Why (are) you assuming the latter? In the windowless abyss Me, myself, (and) my insects will reminisce I'm staring at a thriller What movie’s better than a mirror? Cuts on my shield From the cutlass Obstruction of justice Old debts and interest A merry crew of two blind mice and a Rat that dresses, nice I Penned a long-winded ouch I’m crouched in a doll house Getting punched in the pouch By a feisty mouse Dignity is a word and Dignity is a place On the other side of debasement Washing the mud in a rain puddle After the face-plant, don’t face paint Point index finger nail then Cold stainless steel, still holding Ls You won’t prevail Ninja dwarves hop out of sock drawers Tag the floor with our body contours Acting large is untowards Can’t afford it Sooner or later we’re dead Why (are) you assuming the latter? In the windowless abyss Me, myself, (and) my insects will reminisce I'm staring at a thriller What movie’s better than a mirror?

Clown With No Paint 02:22

Undercover clown with no paint Carry clouds on a string in the summer, it’s a funny umbrella Neverland to the Amsterdam of the Netherworld Tethers next to your jugular with the collar Rear decoy mask for Bengal Tigers Baseball cap and Groucho Glasses backwards Cameras in the moustache for fashion I’m dealing with psychopaths I smile, nod, and do the Michael Jackson dance They hype you up, they backtrack and find Christ After you act out your half of the suicide pact Cadillac hearse, black lacquer casket Dust to ashes. Skies are grey Sun will come out someday Or the brain will hallucinate & cope wonderfully Maybe it’s a good thing Dark days, no more regular conversations Small talk, echolocation “Yeah the weather is crazy,” I respond But there was nothing to say We’re stringing words into sentences Pearl necklaces, we’re pigs Which the Lord warns against in Matthew 7:6 Follow astrology, quite a story you’ve got Got premonitions, you must be reminiscing Abuse of the spoken word, therefore Fuck your vocal chords, smoke alarm Toady promoted from dick rider to side kick But stay the fuck out the driver's seat

Sullen at the Eleventh hour Looking at the skull of the sun Ed Sullivan or Summer Jam or Pull a gun out the belly button Under bridges, hired hobos catch Internet trolls on commute home from cubicles Low-life wankers, low-key ass gropers who Beeline through dance floors En garde, light the tunnel, spark from sharp metal Double carpal tunnel, play your harp in heaven Tell the cobbler use alligator leather Godzilla-skin Timberlands, claws on the ends Toe button for the venom glands Hotdogs, hamburgers bitten in fourths Chef quipped, “Get this nigger his hors d’oeuvres!” Garçon, roll on the floor, fix his demeanour Serve manure, lift the cloche dome for the monsieur Smooth operator, HP Printer Dom Perignon label maker, piss in a carbonator Creature comforts, tea and crumpets Jay-Z and Warren Buffet discussing the coloureds Lotney Fratelli, walking the streets, it's me Half crunch on a vertical frame A Hunchback of Notre Dame, my JFK slump In the back of the pearly white Acura Toe button for the venom glands

Homemade hood ornament, skull of a horned ungulate In front of a million horse legs, the new Ford Minotaur will gore Matadors in their foreheads A wild thought grew a mind of its own (I need) eyes on the back of the eyeballs, to braid my Brain folds like Empra Tewodros' cornrows Crown prince to clown jester, boisterous hamster “Life” according to Merriam Webster Flip and flick a coin twirl, make the world curl Bless a heart, hard work’s its own reward For everything else there’s MasterCard, the passport Madison Square Garden, Phineas T.

Exhale smoke plume rises Best part seeing proof of life A mirage is a useful lie that Leads to a beach bar in Tunisia Bacardi Breezer with a freezer mug Face blurry in a heat shimmer Humidity make brain less quicker Mute beggars with shaky fingers Uncrumple resumes and disclaimer letters Tip for bellhops in regard to day jobs Not a game but not not a game All-American fame: Mesoamerican ballgame Blood and pablum for the tum-tum Houston’s got a problem Come in Moon, Sun… anyone? Beats by Dre secret service earpiece Lord speaketh, or at least Provide an old beast with Adhesive hair pieces I need peace of mind or an adhesive hair piece Screaming out loud but not all there (I’m) speaking to clouds, it’s God’s beard!

(We can) reach for the stars, first we’ve gotta reach shore Recharge on wild boar Pride comes before the trip cord Spikes under the trapdoor Tall tales around the campfire ‘The Game’ sat on a tire, satire. Pants on fire, Soweto tire the tyrant Someone somewhere in England is saying brilliant Idiots bump heads ‘cause something out there is playing billiards God won, all you can do is scream at the top of your lungs Spraying a Tommy gun at the sun for consolation That downward spiral climbing the ivory tower Life of a gyro, heart of eternal fire Frying pan to the fire. What’s worse? Burn rubber in a hamster tire or paralyzed inside a tumble dryer? Jumbo air fryer. Try jumbo jambalaya Purple nipple, a dimple-full under the mistletoe Do they know it’s Christmas in the home of the shit holes? A million cute parachutes Tim boots stomp rock salt, kick Crush ice splash slush out of potholes Skip a crack in sidewalk at the crossroads Most benevolent creature Heart of a small child, cerebral palsy smile Tim boots stomp rock salt Tim boots stomp rock salt Tim boots stomp rock salt Tim boots stomp rock salt That downward spiral climbing the ivory tower Life of a gyro, heart of eternal fire Frying pan to the fire. What’s worse? Burn rubber in a hamster tire or paralyzed inside a tumble dryer? Jumbo air fryer. Try jumbo jambalaya

Hit spike strips, rollover, burn slow on a curb Harvest crematorium chimney fumes They now store souls in balloons Novelty genie lamp urn cues piezo music Disgraceful floral arrangement Sacrificed pretty plants to commemorate potatoes Gasps for air and tortured abs Second half of the world’s longest laugh The montage to climax The past looked better in time-lapse Instrumental Timbo infomercials Any resemblance to Spinal Taps was coincidence Hit the gas, peel asphalt to airport They’re gaining on us The montage to climax The past looked better in time-lapse Instrumental Tim(bo)
