Keep a lid on it
01:42

I got some new information
Heard it late last night
Probably better keep a lid on it
But things travel at the speed of light
Strike one - you're fine
Strike two - stand still
Strike three - you're out
Strike four - now you're cheating
This may mess up your concerntration
But the boss is seeing red
Probably should just keep a lid on it
Just forget everything I said
Strike one - you're fine
Strike two - stand still
Strike three - you're out
Strike four - now you're cheating death
We're making mountains out of molehills
Strike one
Strike two
Strike three
You're done

Flat Battery
02:14
|

Curled up in a ball
I'm so sick of it all
The smokescreen's disappeared &
I'm in the wrong dimension
With a flat battery
Flat out on my back
I kinda got off track
The power cell's run down &
I'm in the wrong dimension
With a Flat Battery

The weathergirl

Last night the weathergirl
Looked better than I remembered
Done up like a sore toe
Who gives a shit what she's got to say?
It's important stuff though
'Predicting' when the sun will come out
When the rain will come down
If she could only get it right
The powers-that-be
Hope I'm riveted to my chair &
The powers-that-be think
They can get inside my head
Now I've lost the remote
I know it's somewhere over there
But I've gone catatonic uh-oh!
There's the supporting cast ...
A cute asian, a latina
both yukking it up
How many jokes can they rattle off?
Back to the weathergirl
'Cause just around the corner
Something you wont want to miss
Spellbound by the heat in Joshua Tree
Gained a foothold, gotta fight it off
Can't give up control
But I've gone catatoni
They've made me catatonic

Frozen in space

Would've been nice if you'd let me know
Since you'd made up your mind
Not on Friday afternoon
On your way out the door
And you get this weird look on your face
Can't really hide it
And I stand there like I'm frozen in space
Clear off my desk, hand you my files
No time to discuss things
I've become a statistic...
Another name on the pile
And you get this weird look on your face
Can't really hide it
I just stand there like I'm frozen in space
No way to describe it
You get this weird look on your face
Like you secretly enjoy this
And I stand there like I'm frozen in space
No hard feelings - wanna shake my hand
It's just business - hope you understand
A direct order - from command
Would've been nice to be treated
A bit more like a freind
And not a lethal enemy escorted off to my death
You get this weird look on your face
A nervous smirk ...or a smile
And I stand there like I'm frozen in space

Make me an offer
01:41
|
|||
From when I get up in the morning
Until I tuck myself in bed
They try shoving it down my throat
The same old rhetoric
Until I start to believe it
It isn't very often
I put my feet up & relax
Click on the television
To another suprise attack
They'll eventually make me an offer
That I can't refuse
'Cause I start to believe it
Start to believe everything
Just make me an offer

It's not about you this is about me
I've got a silly little problem & I need it fixed
Thought I could call & you'd make it go away
Customer service has sure gone down the drain
I'm a little edgy & I aint got all day &
I'm caught up in the system
One little answer is all I need
But I'm caught up in the system
You wont tell me your name
And you promise me the world
Then you never get back to me
Stuck in limbo for eternity
There's no hurry don't really wanna pick a fight
One simple question
And we can get on wiyh our lives
It's like a maze, a realy annoying one
And that music you play aint calming me down
Is this a joke? Are you fucking with me?
Can't press numbers on my phone all day
That robo-tron don't understand a word I say
'P-l-e-a-s-e-r-e-p-e-a-t-y-o-u-r-s-e-l-e-t-i-o-n
I'm a little anxious & I aint got all day
But I'm caught up in your system

On the wagon
02:15
|

Called my freind Tim & said "hey, let's get together
Get out of Dodge & the inclement weather."
He said "sounds great!, but there aint no fucking way
The wife's got me under lock & key."
She's put him on the wagon
So I called Cindy, cause back in the day
She was always good for a drink & a roll in the hay
Starts blubbering 'bout how the authorities
Took her kids & gave her the 3rd degree
Now she's on the wagon
Sent Matt a text- "You know, it's been a while"
He shoots back this stupid little smile =)
When we talked, he sounded kind of bitter
Just sitting 'round waiting on a liver
So...he's on the wagon
What happened? We were so full of life
Always good for a roll of the dice
Life's been sucked from the inside out
Nothing left but excuses & doubt
So, I get this invite to a school reunion
I'm thinking 'no thanks!, what a pack of losers
What happened to our self control?
We've 'matured' into babies
Life's taken it's toll
We're on the wagon

Driptank

I've hit snooze 6 or 7 times
Morning shift aint no freind of mine
Already missed the bus & employee meeting
Nothing left but to snuggle back in
My head spins, my breath stinks
Not doing too good all 'round
Rinse my face & stumble 'round the block
Show up late, half day on the clock
Slopped coffee all over my shirt
Better sneak in & get to work
My head spins, my breath stinks
Not doing too good all 'round
My ears ring, my throat stings
Not doing too good all 'round
But I'm here in the office, you can count on me
A company man, 5 star guarantee
Proud to be of service
My head spins, my breath stinks
My eyes ache, my ears ring
My clothes wreak, my throat stings
It's trickled down, I'm not too good all 'round
Trickled down into the driptank

I can't start missing you
At work, that would be an issue
All day wondering what you're up to
I can't start missing you
At home everything that I do
All night up tossing & turning
All I know is I can't start missing you
I can't start missing you
My fave food wont taste like it used to
Already thrown your stuff away
I can't start missing you
No matter what I do
My world don't contain you
All I know is I can't start missing you
I'll stay busy & stay away
All I know is I can't start missing you
Can't start missing you
Can't start missing you

You're sooo Dramatic
02:04

Spit it out if there's a problem
Here, you want a cigarette?
Might help you calm down
Get to the point I aint got all day
I can only spare a minute
Not all eternity
You're sooo dramatic
Just give it a rest
Complete state of panic
Don't help you look yor best
You're sooo dramatic
Just give me the facts
And keep it simple
Just let it out
I'm feeling sympathetic
Only second nature
Let's not make it automatic
Here, you need a drink?
I can make it strong
This'll all blow over
This'll soon be done
You're sooo dramatic
Just give it a rest
Complete state of panic
Don't help you look your best
You're sooo dramatic
Just give me the facts
And keep it simple
You're sooo dramatic
I just hope it's temporary
You're sooo dramatic
Everyone is kinda wary
You're sooo dramatic
You gotta try & tone it down
You're sooo dramatic
There's sooo much drama
You're sooo dramatic
I just hope it's temporary
