Someone died and I believed it Every day Speak in tongues and I'll receive it Oh my God Every day Sit on your arse pick your brain and wonder What went wrong Why you mean nothing to no one Saw you shopping for your groceries Yesterday Just like me except you’re holy Every day Sit on your arse pick your brain and wonder What went wrong Why you mean nothing to no one And God don't know your name Someone cries and you will leave them All alone Told the girls they were abnormal Should atone Every day You look in the mirror and no one tells you You just know That you mean nothing to no one And God don’t know your name

Leo Driscoll 01:58
Time waits for him ‘coz he is no man Yet a God to me Yells from the sideline We’re the winning team He is my idol and I’m proud to say That you’re the one that makes me Pass the ball My footy coach Leo Driscoll Awards night My hands are clammy And the lights are bright They say my name and I Go Up the stairs A microphone before A thousand glares One person I’d like to thank Most of all My footy coach Leo Driscoll He only wanted the best for his boys On and off the field Anyone else would attest to these words If they knew Leo like I know Leo That smirk, his trademark hat and Grey polo To get your life on track You know where to go My footy coach Leo Driscoll I’d like to thank-you Leo Driscoll My Footy Coach Leo Driscoll

Fired 04:19
You know that I recall That I recall that day I was robbed Fired and replaced Got erased Sigh I know that you have nothing You have nothing left It was theft Can't look at my face Where's the men Sitting on a mountain of broken glass And you never wanna see my sorry arse again Can you make it through the night all alone Have to make it all right on your own I was robbed Fired and replaced Got erased Sigh We both know that we were never We were never safe It was theft Can't look at my face Where's the men Sitting on a mountain of broken glass And you never wanna see my sorry arse again Can you make it through the night all alone Have to make it all right on your own

Chew On This 03:59
Wizard wardrobe He can't cast no spells But now disappear Nothing in his head but ringing bells And no word is clear The less that is said the better Sleep tight boy Nobody waits for you Abracadabra Kalamazoo Looks like I know a few of my own tricks too What you're eating can't be good for you I don't think it's food What you're chewing turns your brain to goo Bet you'll eat that too How 'bout you No one hates you So why not come down here to the real world Ah, ah, ah The less that is said the better Sleep tight boy Nobody waits for you Abracadabra Kalamazoo Looks like I know a few of my own tricks too How 'bout you No one hates you So why not come down here to the real world Ah, ah, ah

Somebody hit me I gotta be dreaming 'Cos I would rather let you die Somebody hold me 'Cos I gotta hit him I can't believe you're still alive Face to the curb Feel my teeth on your nerves Lack of action is my alibi A man can dream A man can also scream Gasp for air and say my name three times You will regret such a credible threat Coming from a sweet and lovely guy

You bore yourself until you start to tell the truth Baby, people don’t know you exist ‘til you give them proof Again, again, again, again Daydreaming only takes you deeper in your mind Keep up your appearances amongst your own kind again Again, again, again, again I got to thinking, then I knew just what to do Thank-you Goodie Two-shoes but it’s time I got more rude So I started punching back Now I’m lonely in my room Excuse me Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, what Um, hello Hard nuts to crack but you can eat them when you do You can try beforehand but the nutshell’s harder to chew What then, what then, what then, what then Daydreaming only takes you deeper in your mind Keep up your appearances amongst your own kind again Again, again, again, again Tell me why you sit there twiddling your fingers Won’t pick up the plough Your only excuse You don’t know how Excuse me Life’s unfair Well then what do I do No one cares Oh thank God I’ll stay at home Maybe I’ll chuck something on and just forget about everything You bore yourself until you start to tell the truth Baby, people don’t know you exist ‘til you give them proof Again, again, again, again Daydreaming only takes you deeper in your mind Keep up your appearances amongst your own kind again Again, again, again, again

Splut 04:05
Just to call you friend is the greatest gift of all I push all your buttons and you answer all my call Who knew being alone could be such a ball/bore Useless and pointless You shake me what what You sticky poindexter at what cost What Useless and pointless You shake me what what You sticky poindexter at what cost Huh Rest on your laurels with squelchy splut splut Chew out a chorus with you know what what Rest on your laurels with sticky splut splut Rest on my laurels with sticky splut splut splut splut splut splut splut splut splut splut splut Your sounds do not last forever But 'til then I'll be real clever With my knuckles on your face-plate Then I'll hear you warbling straight

From Above 04:32
The clouds will part And I will start my words As people settle in A light shines down A holy clown, absurd Crowds keeping up the din As he's asking Can't you hear that saintly song Or maybe I'm just listening wrong What's that voice from above His terrible ugly love As she honks it out Not so bad mother goose But who ever let you choose What you could shout Everybody's the same They all think the voice is to blame And they stay devout Too bad you're never getting younger Would you like someone to hold you under You can't just start again What you doin' on your knees Enjoy the fruit enjoy the trees It is not all that sublime People write books all the time What's that voice from above His terrible ugly love As she honks it out Not so bad mother goose But who ever let you choose What you could shout Everybody's the same They all think the voice is to blame And they stay devout Too bad you're never getting younger Would you like someone to hold you under You can't just start again Bad things can happen to good people And good things can happen to the evil You have to charge ahead What you doin' on your knees Enjoy the fruit enjoy the trees It is not all that sublime People write books all the time

Here comes teddy ‘cross the ocean Where does the teddy go I’m sure he will let you know In a letter when he gets home Can’t believe you let him die But it was a little doggy’s fault I didn’t witness the assault But I saw the carnage on my phone So I went to K-mart to buy l Little Caleb Jr. II He was frightened so I think he knew For a teddy he is quite astute I love teddy so much and I’m sure that you'll love him too Keep him safe right next to you And if you don’t it’s an omen and if teddy kicks the bucket, I’m through We’ll both die He and I We’re linked Cerebral Soul link Here comes teddy ‘cross the ocean Where does the teddy go I’m sure he will let you know In a letter when he gets home Can’t believe you let him die But it was a little doggy’s fault I didn’t witness the assault But I saw the carnage on my phone

[Laughter] Hey you, get out of my mind Hey you, get out of my mind Hey you, get out of my mind Hey you, get out of my mind If I can't step in line Someone slipped on the ice And cracked their skull open What a dunce Someone slipped on the ice I have been possessed by a dream Blanking out and blood begins to freeze Cannot fall asleep naturally Bonking on the head is what you need I have been possessed by a dream It won't materialise I'm convinced of what I have seen Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah I'll step in line Hey you, get out of my mind Hey you, get out of my mind Hey you, get out of my mind Hey you, get out of my mind If I can't step in line Someone slipped on the ice And cracked their skull open What a dunce Someone slipped on the ice

Prognosis 04:37
Hello superstar You love chocolate bars Peak at the future when you learn to shed weight I'm speaking to ya as a doctor Not your mate I'm looking at your chart It's peaking out again Found shrapnel in you heart And lodged inside your brain Get used to throwing darts at copies of my head Or wholemeal bread Unwrap the tape Reveal your shape Potatoes and gravy You are such a sloppy mess You dinner drifter You don't have a home address I'm looking at your chart It's peaking out again Found shrapnel in you heart And lodged inside your brain Get used to throwing darts at copies of my head Or wholemeal bread Look, there's no easy way for me to put this but Looking at the condition that you're in We're probably looking at another four, five months, tops, left to live I'm so sorry Beast becomes unpopular Without a rump pump pump pump pump pump (Oh dip him again in the sauce) Beast becomes unpopular Without a rump pump pump pump pump pump (Oh dip him again in the sauce) Smelling bad in the sun And harassing everyone Spit it out, flare your tongue Wet Wesley has a gun When it's all said and done Can we all just get along When it's all said and done Can we all just get along When it's all said and done Can we all just get along When it's all said and done Can we all just get along I'm looking at your chart It's peaking out again Found shrapnel in you heart And lodged inside your brain Get used to throwing darts at copies of my head
