Hello Fellow Toothless

Hello fellow toothless of the world
Not those hollow-smiled elderly or teething boys and girls
Genetic or cosmetic, it's a bitch to get 'em fixed
But it's worth it
Yeah it's worth it
Hello fellow toothless of the earth
All my faultline-grinning brethren, go get your money's worth
Pathetic anesthetic can't do shit or this deathwish
But it might stall it for a while
Hello fellow toothless of America
All these falsies in your mouth, shit gets hysterical
Pathetic, apathetic, I don't get it I don't get it
But it's worth it
Hello fellow toothless of the multiverse
All and all of everything and dying in reverse
Ooh that smile's only lookin' worse
But it's workin'

Dead Ones
02:36

Nothing to be worried about
Nothing to see here
Nothing that can't be written on the wall
Took another one off the skull
This brain is blacked out
It saw its body on the ground
Underground
Something here is sort of satisfying and unsatisfying
And it tells us nothing at all
Well aware that thing is self-aware
Watch it watching itself
And watch the dead ones kick it out
These lungs been feeling full
This heart is blown out
It saw its body on the ground
Underground
Nothing here is ever accidental or on purpose
And it never tells us nothing at all

Empty Costume

Never seen a dead man run away from his own shadow before
Leave it up to him to complicate the situation that much more
He's got lotsa answers to the questions no one's asking out loud
Hands up, it's a stick up
Hand over every stupid little thing you never asked
Piece by piece we pick apart the monster that's been eating us alive
Not a whole lot to it
Just a hole inside
Turns out now that it's turned out
It's just an empty costume with a very very lifelike mask
Now we've seen a skeleton go hungry and get eaten at the same time
It's a piece of work but once you get through all the gristle it's fine
Teeth bared
Ass bare
Welcome back to hell, it's been a very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very long long task

We're Drying Up
03:48

Your status as a savage
Dripping ugly of your brow
Move along now
We're drying up
You had it to the rafters
It's too big a room
Use a push broom
You had it to the rafters
It's too big a dirty room
Use a push broom
We're drying up
Smells like you're drying up

Blood on My Pillow
02:16
|
|||
|
I went to bed with those wires on my head
And a camera pointing at me
It's infrared so I worry and fret
If it's seeing things I ain't meant to see
It''s all in frame, it's all the same
I don't do nothing for free
It pays
In pages and dust
That age old distrust
We wage war on us
To praise you
I went to bed with no teeth in my head
And i woke up with a smile to see
Somebody bled on my pillow, turned red
And I'm pretty sure it wasn't me
Feeling no pain, burn my remains
Make sure that I die for free

Taking over the world was a good idea back when no one knew how big it really was
Now there's satellites to tell us height and width and spying just because
World War Three can fuck itself, I'm fighting the only war I know I can win
If nothing's going right today it's just 'cause Lady Luck is sleeping in
Whatever, forever's always late
Tell the devil hell will have to wait
Taking over the world was a good idea back when no one knew it was rotten at its core
Now its ones and zeros changing hands and war today just for the sake of war
Tomorrow is another day to act like we're not all completely fucked
If nothing's going right today it's probly 'cause we stood up Lady Luck
Whatever, forever's always late
Tell the devil hell will have to wait

Benjamin Lee Farley Asheville, North Carolina
Never took a lesson in my life. All songs written, played, sung/sang/sing-ed, produced, computerized / all album covers made
by Ben unless otherwise noted.
NONE of my sounds are made with Artificial Intelligence, just a few album covers. Is anybody reading this? If so thank you. If not, then I guess I can say whatever I want because you'll never read it. So fuck you I guess? Just kidding madluv.
