Sharpen Up Yer Creases (2020)

by Benjamin Lee Farley

/
1.
We're bound to learn just exactly how it works Just in time for end of days Or at least the end of the empire One real concern, is the species set to burn? Will it brighten end of days Or will the flood put out the fire?
2.
Bloodthirsty immortal in a dead man's Buick Caught red-handed don't mean blood Midday moon, loitering sun Ground speckled with scavengers The scraps are all down here Being poisoned again They run They roll Werewolves with nowhere to look Sun too close Moon too far Sharpen up your creases, it's a party
3.
Permafever 02:19
They're gonna burn the house down just to get inside They got a permanent fever and cold cold blood I know
4.
Do not forget to take your drugs If you forget to take your drugs You will not get to take your drugs Do not forget to take your drugs Do not forget to take your drugs If you forget to take your drugs You will forget to take your drugs Do not forget to take your drugs
5.
Evidence is in good supply How much more do we want to see? Visiting or they're always here Pentagon calls 'em UAP
6.
She haunts my refrains From banishment days Trading cult for cult I don't think about her til the radiator hisses like a snake And then I'm crawling on my belly trying to speak her language Tell her she's forgiven But I'll never look Medusa in the eyes again And I don't think about her at all if I can help it Til the radiator rattles out a song
7.
Immobile but motion sick Stranded and antsy Like getting my teeth pulled Laugh like a stalker Immobile but motion sick Immobile but motion sick Who the fuck am I to get away with this?
8.
Get Yer Mail 01:18
Tripping over my own feet Falling down the driveway Gotta take a tumble Just trying to get the mail Just trying to get the mail
9.
Your pollinating days are over baby Alive in a wind tunnel Where people sell fish from the back of their trucks And a mob awaits another place to sleep But not to live Another place to sleep but not to live Where the rent is stolen Breathe through your mouth and put on a fucking mask Pardon me for taking to water like the rest of you don't My limbs react in haste and twitch the twinge that leads to drowning and dirty looks as mementos Some limbs hold out for stronger winds to dance with Some limbs hold out for stronger winds to dance to I'm stroking the egos of mountains to make em volcanoes
10.
I think I wanna tell a story over this one but Fuck if I know which one to tell I dunno You go through a lotta shit Then you get put on the spot and just uh I dunno Three minutes doesn't seem like that long of a time until you turn the microphone on and start overthinking it Eh I guess I'll just let this one play out And pretend I did this on purpose
11.
The plight of the side-door lothario Beautiful cars, ugly pedestrians Visitors not interlopers Such a handsome mansion
12.
I keep getting mixed signals We part ways Skies do too The one who missed the storm Didn't know what to make of me
13.
14.
Let's see some lightning to feel in our bones Remnants of teeth shaken from home Let's hear some thunder to rattle the throne Remnants of peace forsaken alone Let's have a flood to clean up all the waste Remnants of land taking up space Let's have a fire to warm up for the chase Remnants of man all over the place
