Are You Not Entertained? 03:44
lyrics
buy track
Go ahead, take another piece I have learned that it's not up to me I was born without autonomy So take anything you see Chop me up - put me on a plate Buy one, get one - it's not too late Take my left one, I wasn't usin' em Take my right thumb, I still have two of em Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Sorry 'bout the blood It's part of the job With a little bit of love You can rub that off Oh no, don't worry 'bout me I've lost everything that I don't need With a little less every day Soon I will wither away Sorry 'bout the blood It's part of the job With a little bit of love You can rub that off Oh no, don't worry 'bout me I've lost everything that I don't need With a little less every day Soon I will wither away Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Are you not entertained Are you not entertained

Give Em Hell 02:56
lyrics

I think there's something in my brain The doctor's and I have yet to explain A bit outside for them to relate It's like we're playing a different game I'm not tryna say that you all have it easy But I'm gonna say that you have yet to see me Like telling a straight edge kid what it's like to smoke a joint You can get it pretty close but you'll never nail the point Like explaining color to someone without sight You can get it pretty close but you'll never get it right Give em hell When there's nothing that you can do Give em hell Might as well Give em hell When there's nothing that you can do Give em hell I think it's pretty clear to see There's never been a place for me A non-systemic anomaly Just shut my mouth and leave you be Your little boxes can't contain the shape of water And when I try to explain they turn me to cannon fodder Like shooting a sling shot under feet of water You can give it a shot but that guy won't shoot further Like explaining rock n roll to your aging father You can give it a shot but you just shouldn't bother Give em hell When there's nothing that you can do Give em hell Might as well Give em hell When there's nothing that you can do Give em hell

Don't Sign No Checks You Can't Cash 01:27
lyrics
buy track
I learned many years ago You don't need a gleamin pile of gold For a man to try to sell you on signin a fortune Without tellin you just what it is he sold I learned several years ago You needn't exchange a pile of gold For a man to have convinced you on signin a fortune Without tellin you that something has been sold So when it comes time to act I pray that you and I will make a pact Remember men speak fast And don't sign no checks you can't cash So when it comes time to act I pray that you and I will make a pact Remember men speak fast And don't sign no checks you can't cash

What Tunnel? 02:03
lyrics

You wanna know how I know you don't understand It's all in the language you use I don't need someone here to try and cheer me up I need you to hear me When I try to name my abuser Well to me it sounds like you're dealing with depression Listen up That's enough I don't wanna hear it anymore I've done the math I don't equate What do I do when it's all the same When I'm 52 as when I was 28 Look, I'm fine As far as fine goes, anyways I'm not in danger But anyways, some days I wish that you would take me at my word
