You're god damn right this is a high-class place
So act respectable
I never once ever seen your face
Just act respectable
If you know how
Do you know how?
Put a good face on
You're god damn right this is a high-class place
So act respectable
I think I might recall your face
Just act respectable
If you know how
Do you know how?
Put a good face on
You're god damn right this is a high-class place
So act respectable
You got one hell of a face
Just act respectable
If you know how
Do you know how?
Did you learn to act?
Put a good face on
Put a good face on
Put a good face on
Put your good side on
Put a good face on

Confident Idiot

A confident idiot is only entertaining on T.V.
I only love ya if you promise to love me back
I come with baggage under my eyes
World's been on its farewell tour since day one
Let the tires out
Let the tiger out
I only love ya if you promise to love me back

He's built like a mushroom cloud*, look at the size of his hands
But he took care of his home and that's all you can ask of a man*
Sonny oh Sonny oh who killed the champ?
You took care of your home and that's all you can ask of a man

There was a bitterness on my tongue
Gave me heartburn all night long
Stink of you filled my lungs
All that's left now's a song
I don't dream about you anymore
I don't pace my floor
It's so serene without your little wars
Think I closed that door
There's no free-fall, bleeding walls
No ghost in my halls
I don't dream about you anymore
I just don't sleep at all
There was an ugliness in my heart
Made me reckless, made me want
Made a mess but it's a start
Such a dirty house you haunt
I don't dream about you anymore
I don't pace my floor
It's so serene without your little wars
Think I closed that door
There's no free-fall, bleeding walls
No ghost in my halls
I don't dream about you anymore
I just don't sleep at all

Unbreakable Heart
02:59
|
|||
|
I'm a movie star in my own mind
Speaking languages left to rot
Left a lot of people behind
I don't know me so pretend I'm not here
I got that unbreakable heart
You got no shot, don't even start
I am unbreakable breakable heart
I'm a walking habit made to kick
Speaking languages I outgrown
Running low on ways to get sick
I don't know me so act like I'm well-known here
I got that unbreakable heart
Don't got no shot, don't even start
I am unbreakable breakable breakable breakable heart
I'm a burning bridge to warm yourself by
Speaking languages time forgot
Left a lot of people in hell
I don't know me so make like I am well-known here
I got that unbreakable heart
You got no shot, don't even start
I am unbreakable breakable heart

M.I.A.D.D.
02:29
|
|||
|
A weak attempt to keep track of nothing anymore
Met enough characters to build a new folklore
But their lives are lost amidst the barking dogs of distraction
Attention spans missing in action
And the money's drying up
But oOowee I'll be worth a zillion umbrella-tongued reptilians
All the minions dying in their swimming pools
Back legs flattened by the punch and dragging nagging ex-wives
Fattened up by lunch wagons' dull knives
Happened to have a hunchback's hacking cough
Mapping out the crunch of braggarts' feet lopped off
And sagging teats lagging behind and
Shriveled up

Might need to find me a new best friend
Keep hearing fighter planes flying overhead
Keep hearing fighter planes flying overhead
Might need to find me a new best friend
Might need to find me a habit to kick
Keep getting lonely I keep getting sick
Keep getting lonely I keep getting sick
Might need to find a new habit to kick
Might need to find me something better to do
Than sitting around to make friends with you
Keep sitting around hoping to make friends with you
Might need to find something better to do
Might need to find me a new best friend
Keep hearing the news, we're approaching the end
Keep hearing the news we're approaching the end
Might need to be my own best friend

Cool As Hell

I'll take the rap
I'll take the scraps
Scream in all caps
Don't this shit slap?
Hey ain't I hip
I'm hot as shit
I stink like shit
I stink like shit
Well you do it well
Hot holy mess
I ain't no threat
Your man puffs his chest
Then he buys the next
I must be blessed
I must be blessed
I must be blessed
I must be blessed
I must be dead
Ain't got no stress
I'll have no rest
I'm too wick-ed
Ah ain't I hip
I'm hot as shit
I stink like shit
Well you do it well

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

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.
