Machines Get Cleaned

It was Monday then it was the weekend
Did we jump ahead or go back a whole season?
My head’s pounding
You’re astounding
The chemicals in my brain are broken
Can’t recall the last time we had spoken
Got no reasons
Have no receipts
Machines get cleaned
It happens every single day
Hey you’re not around me?
Finally, came clean
I told you everything I need
Hey, you’re not around me!
My calendar has birthdays of my exes
My sex life is controlled by my hexes
What’s your secret
To have no regret?
I stand in line while ghosts dance in a circle
The reward will come if I take my turn
I’m unstable
You’re enabled
Machines get cleaned
It happens every single day
Hey you’re not around me?
Finally, came clean
I told you everything I need
Hey, you’re not around me!
Consider it, considerate
When will we learn our lesson?
Consider it, considerate
When will we learn our lessons?
Machines get cleaned
It happens every single day
Hey you’re not around me?
Finally, came clean
I told you everything I need
Hey, you’re not around me!

Permanent Receptionist
02:35
|

I saw an ad the other day
It seemed a little to the point
I only wanted temp work
But they needed a permanent receptionist
I clocked in on the first day
This office was full of men
Don’t really mind the routine
Hate to come but I love to go
Is everybody getting paid their fair shake?
When is my goddamn lunch break?
Got called in by Mr. Marx
Said he doesn’t really see a spark
Don’t really wanna throw a fit
Need this job for the benefits
Is everybody getting paid their fair shake?
When is my goddamn lunch break?

Hollywood Beach
02:32

The sand sticks to my sunburned skin
I’ll share my thermos full of gin
Sand fleas send shivers straight up my back
As they play leapfrog in my buttcrack
I lost my phone
But I heard that daddy has weed
C’mon and join me down at
Hollywood Beach
Hide my worries behind my shades
The water is thick like marinade
You can spot the rookies by their tan lines
Just a little bit shy on their very first time
I lost my keys
But I gained a leech
C’mon and join me down at
Hollywood Beach
I’ll take the shortcut at Berwyn
The straights all call it Osterman
It’s a safe space close to home
As long as Lori leaves us alone
I found a ride
But I lost my memories
C’mon and join me down at
Hollywood Beach

Long Distance Mistake
01:49
|

|
My phone went buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
I got excited
His name was Marc Marc Marc Marc Marc
From an island
We met then uh oh uh oh oh
My phone went silent
I guess reception ain’t so great in the bay
You were a long distance mistake
You’re a long distance waste of my time
Long distance mistake
But you were briefly mine
My phone went buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
I got excited
His name was Aaron he was going back to school
We chat for months months months months months
I bought his flight in
When he ghosted made me feel like a fool
You were a long distance mistake
You’re a long distance waste of my time
Long distance mistake
But you were briefly mine
My phone went buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
I got excited
It’s been a long long long long time
Since I got butterflies
My phone went
My phone went
My phone went…
Is this thing broken?
Oh I guess he had a husband this whole time

Truth or Dare
01:24
|
|||
|
Tell the truth for a couple of dollars
I bet you could finally spit it out
Tell the truth for a fist of flowers
Maybe then you’ll get your reasonable doubt?
And I dare you to get out
And I dare you to find somewhere else to shout
Dare you to get out
A I dare you to get out
Tell the truth to a pile of cigarettes
Light it up so that we all get lost in the fog
Tell the truth to a circle of idiots
Maybe then you’ll finally get thrown off the log
And I dare you to get out
I dare you to find somewhere else to shout
Dare you to get out
And I dare you to get out

Drink Water

Do you wanna get drunk?
Do you wanna feel sober?
Do you wanna have fun?
You don’t wanna wake up hungover
Drink, Drink Water
I saw you taking that shot
Well this is a warning
We’re here in case you forgot
You won’t regret this in the morning
Drink, Drink Water
Do you wanna stay out?
Did you follow our order?
Will you come to our next show?
You don’t wanna wake up hungover…
Drink, Drink water

Confident
02:48
|
|||
|
You are the closest friend
To twenty men who look the same
Don’t pull that string
It’s sensitive
When you can’t take all that you give
Your self-esteem seems miles high
But what are you trying to hide?
How many men will he dismiss?
The limit does not exist
You really think you’ve got it all figured out?
You’ve got abs and a fat trust fund account
You really think you’ve got it all figured out?
If you don’t work you can’t clock out
When did this journey start?
I’m guessing with a broken heart
We grow and heal or build a shield
Then hit the gym to play the field
You really think you’ve got this all under control?
But it’s gonna rain and you are wearing wool
You really think you’ve got this all under control?
I bet it feels so great to sell your soul
You’re so confident

Attitude

You’ve got attitude
I’ve got reasons to be rude
You’ve got attitude
I’ve got reasons to be
Keep your business
Outta my business
Keep your business
In my distance
I’m patient
When is my turn?
You’re nosy
When will you learn?
Our conflict in power
We crash and burn
You’ve got attitude
I’ve got reasons to be rude
You’ve got attitude
I’ve got reasons to be
Keep your business
Outta my business
Keep your business
In my distance
I’m patient
When is my turn?
You’re nosy
When will you learn?
Our conflict in power
We crash and burn
Strike one
Strike two
Strike three
Fuck you.
You’ve got attitude
I’ve got reasons to be rude

Younger Lover
02:42
|
|||
|
We got a connection and that’s obvious to me
But your husband does not agree
I’m so fucking bored I hover
Don’t wanna be your younger lover
I swear these queens are so fizzy they are shook
My phone is buzzing off the hook
You all are perfect for each other
But I don’t need a younger lover
What did I do?
What did I say?
What made you think you’d get your way?
Just cuz I’m known around the town
Does not mean that I am going down
Oh wow how could I be so obtuse?
If I don’t try I’ll keep making this excuse
It’s getting lonely here under my covers
Maybe I need another lover
Are you included with a map?
Did I fall into a trap?

Perfect Guy
02:46
|
|||
|
Feeling good but I’m unsure of the facts
Made a move but I didn’t make it back
Swear I try but this happens every time
How many times have I met the perfect guy?
So many times that I’ve gathered a solution
I transferred all of my issues to illusions
I tried so hard
I try so hard
Is this trying hard or putting up more guards?
Oh my god
My skin is thick but it’s not an attribute
Search for cracks when you tell me I look cute
Swear I try but this happens every time
How many times have I met the perfect guy?
So many times that I’ve gathered a solution
I transferred all of my issues to illusions
I tried so hard
I try so hard
Is this trying hard or putting up more guards?
Oh my god
Oh my fucking god
Another man shows up who gives me the time of day
So I find a single flaw and throw him away
For all the time I spent looking for the one
They say time is precious
But mine could be undone
So many times that I’ve gathered a solution
I transferred all of my issues to illusions
I tried so hard
I try so hard
Is this trying hard or putting up more guards?
How many times have I met the perfect guy?

Mist Connection
03:44
|
|||
|
I lit a candle for our love
Then took a nap in the tub
My sheets still have your scent
When did this get so tense?
And then you turned into a mist
A connection that I missed
You were the most considerate host
And then you turned into a ghost
Walk down the road without a sound
My head beginning to pound
This took a turn my mind is mush
I fell asleep behind a bush
And then you turned into a mist
A connection that I missed
You were the most considerate host
And then you turned into a ghost
It’s a brand new day ever since you went away
