NEW CURRENCY
The great march has worn a hole within
Pockets of new currency
Razor sharp and deadly thin
But there's faith in what's hidden
But if I could just rest
If I could
Termination of the tracks
That we find our feet within
If I'd known I’d have turned back
But I guess I always did
Oh no, alas alay
The time for talk is through
We're naked in the wilderness
Not a zoo

DISSIDENCE OR DECADENCE
Make art, avoid aggression
Make art, avoid repetition
Make order, avoid the conflict
Make sense, avoid the discord
Acceleration of the senses
Fulfillment of desire
Removal of distraction
Control of your reaction
Boredom is irrelevant
In a world of things
Malaise, decay
In the absence of evidence
Dissidence
Or decadence
Dissidence

Dissidence

WORDS FALL APART
Don’t commit

Listing

You’re creating lists

You’re hashing manufactured mindtag
Post a fractured thought
You’ll post anything at all
When your mind is stuck in a box
Give up saying like nothing like telling you the truth
Guth ap, sighing, Mike’s loving
Light letting in the blues
Phrases sayings saying phrases
Phrases sayings saying phrases

Phrases saying you’re saying nothing at all
Saying nothing

CONTACT
All the pictures of you with others
Interactions that might imply
Tell me anything but don't tell me in person
Tell me anything
But not quite face to face
I put down my machine
And I realize
What I needed was two eyes
When we're talking, I can't touch you
I like your thoughts, you like mine
Tell me anything but don't tell me in person
Tell me anything
But not quite face to face
I put down my machine
And I go outside
What I needed was
Contact
Not to read or write

FIGHT FOR MY BELIEFS
The talk is cheap, but the beer is free
talk is cheap man, come on, fight me
Why’d you come here anyway?
If you come to my bar you’ve gotta pay
Put down your drink
I don’t wanna think
put up your hands
and take a swing
I’ll swing right back
give you a heart attack
because I just…
I just want to fight
I love the taste of blood
running down your nose
Because the talk is cheap
and the beer is free
talk is cheap
come on, fight me

ALL OF MY FANS
(Inspirational post-game speech with guttural noises)
I won the game
just me, that’s right
I’m part of the team
And we won the fight
I pass and play and scored
yeah I scored,
and at the end of the day
my fans, they adored
My hair my arms my legs my ass
my feet my speed the way I pass
my girlfriend she’s hot
i’ll kiss her on the field
but she doesn’t know
how much I love my fans
I love my fans
I love my young fans
send me pictures of my young fans
my young fans send me pictures
I will send you pictures back
I will send you pictures back
of
My hair my arms my legs my ass

ADVERTISING
My mom says I have a bright future in advertisement
One day, you’ll see my picture on a billboard screen
as you drive by listening to me.
Buy me, buy me
I’m right here on the shelf
Sell me, sell me
I hope my product will help
My dad says I’ve got a way of convincing you
That I’ve got what you need.
With the language
well practiced in a mirror
with the language
of dire necessity.
Buy me, buy me
I’m right here on the shelf
buy me, sell me
I hope my product will help
Buy me, buy me
I’m right here on the shelf
Sell me, sell me pass me around
Sell me, spill me, pass me around,
Drink me, break me on the ground
Then throw me out.

EXPERIMENTS
Record their findings
On magnetic tape
They measure my blood pressure
They measure your heart rate
This apparatus
Makes my muscles pulsate
This machine
Makes your eyes dilate
We become athletes
Discipline our bodies
Perfect our anatomies
We become aesthetes
Define our identities
Refine our sensibilities
The people watching
From the gallery floor
Admire us from above
Behind a pane of glass
I don’t worry anymore
I don’t worry anymore
I don’t worry anymore
They’re so easy to ignore
But when my sweat
Mixes
With your sweat
Mixes
With my sweat
Mixes
With my sweat
With my sweat
You watch me eat
I watch you sleep
You watch me sleep
I watch you eat
They watch us and repeat
Adjust the playback speed
The light dims
On our windowless interior
Another fluorescent sunset
We rearrange the furniture
We lie here
At the intersection
Of science
And culture
Culture

HYGIENE
Hygiene
gotta have good hygiene
perfect hygiene
if you want to have me
My dream
I dream about my living room
in my dreams
everything is orderly
everything is clean
Hygiene
I wash my hands compulsively
my dreams
are sanitary
Last night
the same dream came to me something's wrong
things aren't where
they're meant to be
I see filth
I start breathing heavily
and scream
for hygiene

OVERSTIMULATE ME
I don't want anticipation
I just want overstimulation
We touch each other
through the plastic
we see each other
through the screen
your skin starts to turn the color
of polyethylene
I don't want to simulate you
I just want to stimulate you
I don't want to simplify you
I just want to multiply you
Simulation, stimulation
simulation, stimulation
simulation, stimulation
simulation, stimulation

COMMERCIAL
People try to tell me that it's not that bad
that life is better than a magazine ad
they tell me things that they don't explain
they say I'd be better off if I didn't complain
I see the subjects of my loathing
see the people in offensive clothing
living in a world of agitation
acceptance without explanation
People talk and it sounds like a commercial
People talk and it sounds like a commercial
These daily moments of resentment
momentary lapses in my judgment
this is me, I am a witness
to the proliferation of your bullshit
People talk and it sounds like a commercial
People talk and it sounds like a commercial
People talk and it sounds like a commercial
I hear you talk and it sounds like a commercial

FIVE COURSE DINNER
Come on kids, get in the car!
We’re gonna be late
for a five course dinner
at the country club
don’t you want to eat?
Aren’t you hungry?
Don’t you care
about your dad’s country club?
A five course dinner
family’s on display
five course dinner
oh come on, don’t lick your plate.
Five course dinner
you’ve got a salad first
you use your salad fork
then they take the salad fork away
then you use your soup spoon
for soup
then they take that away
It’s a five course dinner
All that you can eat
all that you can eat
Are you gonna finish that?
I know it’s rude to share
but I don’t care
I’ll eat with my hands
then I’ll get up and play
my favorite band,
AC/DC
It’s a five course dinner
My family is on display
it’s a five course dinner
Come on and play
All that you can eat
all that you can eat

UTILITY
I pay for heat
I go to sleep
but I wake up cold
shivering in receipts
shivering in receipts
There's not enough
utility
in what I want
it's not what I need
I want lips that I can kiss
but they just scold
still they hold me here
still they hold me here
There's not enough
utility
in what I want
not what I-
