Nice Guys Finish Last

Nice guys finish last
You're running out of gas
Your sympathy will get you left behind
Sometimes you're at your best
When you feel the worst
Do you feel washed up like piss going down the drain

Pressure cooker pick my brain and tell me I'm insane
I'm so fucking happy I could cry
Every joke can have it's truth but now the joke's on you
I never knew you're such a funny guy

Oh nice guys finish last
When you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back
You might break your spine

Living on command
You're shaking lots of hands
You're kissing up and bleeding all your trust
Taking what you need
Bite the hand that feeds
You lose your memory and you got no shame

Pressure cooker pick my brain and tell me I'm insane
I'm so fucking happy I could cry
Every joke can have it's truth but now the joke's on you
I never knew you're such a funny guy

Oh nice guys finish last
When you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back
You might break your spine
Oh nice guys finish last
When you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back
You might break your spine
mmmmm

Oh nice guys finish last
When you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back
You might break your spine
Oh nice guys finish last
When you are the outcast
Don't pat yourself on the back
You might break your spine

Hitchin' A Ride

Hey mister where you headed
Are you in a hurry
I need a lift to happy hour say oh no
Do you break for distilled spirits
I need a break as well
The well that inebriates the guilt 1 2
1 2 3 4

Cold turkey's getting stale
Tonight I'm eating crow
Fermented salmonella poison oak no
There's a drought a the fountain of youth
Now I'm dehydrating
My tongue is swelling up I say 1 2
1 2 3 4

Troubled times
You know I cannot lie
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitching a ride

There's a drought at the fountain of youth
Now I'm dehydrating
My tongue is swelling up
I say shite

Troubled times
You know I cannot lie
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitching a ride
(Don't know where I'm going) hitchin' a ride
(Don't know where I'm going) hitchin' a ride
(Don't know where I'm going) hitchin' a ride
(Don't know where I'm going) hitchin' a ride
(Don't know where I'm going) hitchin' a ride
(Don't know where I'm going) hitchin' a ride
(Don't know where I'm going) hitchin' a ride

The Grouch

I was a young boy that had big plans
Now I'm just another shitty old man
I don't have fun and I hate everything
The world owes me so fuck you
Glory days don't mean shit to me
I drank a six pack of apathy
Life's a bitch and so am I
The world owes me so fuck you

Wasted youth and a fistful of ideals
I had a young and optimistic point of view
Wasted youth and a fistful of ideals
I had a young and optimistic point of view

I decomposed yet my gut's getting fat
Oh my god I'm turning out like my dad
I'm always rude I got a bad attitude
The world owes me so fuck you
The wife's a nag and the kid's fucking up
I don't have sex cause I can't get it up
I'm just a grouch sitting on the couch
The world owes me so fuck you

Wasted youth and a fistful of ideals
I had a young and optimistic point of view
Wasted youth and a fistful of ideals
I had a young and optimistic point of view
So now you know

I was a young boy that had big plans
Now I'm just another shitty old man
I don't have fun and I hate everything
The world owes me so fuck you
Glory days don't mean shit to me
I drank a six pack of apathy
Life's a bitch and so am I
The world owes me so fuck you
The world owes me so fuck you
The world owes me so fuck you

Reundant

We're living in repetition
Content in the same old shtick again
Now the routine's turning to contention
Like a production line going over and over roller coaster

Now I cannot speak
I lost my voice
Speechless and redundant 'cause I love you's not enough
I'm lost for words

Choreographed and lack of passion
Prototypes of what we were
Went full circle 'til I'm nauseous
Taken for granted now
Now I waste it faked it ate it now I hate it

Now I cannot speak
I lost my voice
Speechless and redundant 'cause I love you's not enough
I'm lost for words

Now I cannot speak
I lost my voice
Speechless and redundant 'cause I love you's not enough
I'm lost for words
Now I cannot speak
I lost my voice
Speechless and redundant 'cause I love you's not enough
I'm lost for words

Scattered

Well I've got some scattered pictures lying on my bedroom floor
Reminds me of the times we've shared
Makes me wish that you were there
'Cause now it's seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life
Well all the songs have been erased
Guess I've learned from mistakes

Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you

Well loose ends tied in knots leaving a lump down in my throat
Well gagging on a souvenir
Lodged to fill another year
We'll drag it on and on until my skin is ripped to shreds
Well leaving myself open wide
Living out a sacrifice

Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you

If you got no one
And you got no place to go
Would it be alright
Could it be alright

I've got some scattered pictures lying on my bedroom floor
Reminds me of the times we've shared
Makes me wish that you were there
'Cause now it's seems I've forgotten my purpose in this life
Well all the songs have been erased
Guess I've learned from mistakes

Well open the past and present now and we are there
Story to tell and I am listening
Open the past and present and the future too
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you
It's all I've got and I'm giving it to you

All The Time

All the time
Everytime I need it
What's the time I'd say the time is right
Here's to me let's find another reason
Down the hatch and a bad attitude salud

Wasting time wasting time down a bumfuck road
And I don't know where the hell it'll go
Heirlooms huffing fumes
And I'm picking up the pace
And I'm gonna smash straight into a wall

All the time
New year's resolutions
How soon that we forgot
Doing time and loving every minute
Live it up on another let down salud

Promises promises it was all set it stone
Cross my heart and I hope to die
Sugar fix dirty tricks and a trick question
Guess I should have read between the lines

Having the time of my life
Watching the clock tick
Having the time of my life
Watching the clock tick

All the time
Where did all the time go
It's too late to say goodnight
Time flies when you're having fun yeah
Time's up when you work like a dog salud

Yeah

Worry Rock

Another sentimental argument
And bitter love
Fucked without a kiss again
Dragged it through the mud
Yelling at brick walls and
Punching windows made of stone
The worry rock has turned to dust
And fallen on our pride

A knocked down dragged out fight
Fat lips and open wounds
Another wasted night
And no one will take the fall

Where do we go from here
And what did you do with the directions
Promise me no dead end streets
And I'll guarantee we'll have the road

A knocked down dragged out fight
Fat lips and open wounds
Another wasted night
And no one will take the fall

Another sentimental argument
And bitter love
Fucked without a kiss again
Dragged it through the mud

Where do we go from here
And what did you do with the directions
Promise me no dead end streets
And I'll guarantee we'll have the road
And I'll guarantee we'll have the road
And I'll guarantee we'll have the road

Platypus (I Hate You)

You rise and fall back up against the wall
What goes around is coming back and haunting you
It's time to quit 'cause you ain't worth the shit
Under my shoes or the piss on the ground

No one loves you and you know it
Don't pretend that you enjoy it
Or you don't care
'Cause now I wouldn't lie
Or tell you all the things you wanna hear
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you

I heard you're sick sucked on that cancer stick
A throbbing tumor and a radiation high
Shit out of luck and now your time is up
It brings me pleasure just to know you're gonna die

No one loves you and you know it
Don't pretend that you enjoy it
Or you don't care
'Cause now I wouldn't lie
Or tell you all the things you wanna hear
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you

Dickhead fuckface cock smoking mother fucking
Asshole dirty twat waste of soap I hope you die (hey)

Red eye code blue I'd like to strangle you
And watch your eyes bulge right out of your skull
When you go down head first into the ground
I'll stand above you just to piss on your grave

No one loves you and you know it
Don't pretend that you enjoy it
Or you don't care
'Cause now I wouldn't lie
Or tell you all the things you wanna hear
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you
'Cause I hate you

Uptight

I woke up on the wrong side of the floor
Made made my way through the front door
Broke my engagement with myself
Perfect picture of bad health
Another notch stratched on my belt
The future just ain't what it used to be

I got a new start on a dead end road
Peaked peaked out on reaching new lows
Owed paid off all my debts to myself
Perfect picture of bad health
Another notch stratched on my belt
The future's in my living room

Uptight
I'm a nag with a gun yeah all night
Suicide's last call
I've been uptight all night
I'm a son of a gun
Uptight
I'm a nag with a gun yeah all night
Suicide's last call
I've been uptight all night
I'm a son of a gun

Uptight
I'm a nag with a gun yeah all night
Suicide's last call
I've been uptight all night
I'm a son of a gun
Uptight
I'm a nag with a gun yeah all night
Suicide's last call
I've been uptight all night
I'm a son of a gun
Uptight
I'm a nag with a gun yeah all night
Suicide's last call
I've been uptight all night
I'm a son of a gun
Uptight
I'm a nag with a gun yeah all night
Suicide's last call
I've been uptight all night
I'm a son of a gun

Last Ride In

(-)

Haushinka is a girl with a pecuilar name
I met her on the eve of my birthday
Did she know (did she know)
Did she know before she went away
Does she know (does she know)
Does she know that it's too damn late

This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
Now she's gone
Now she's all gone

All I have now is a memory to date
A cheap hat and cigarettes and a pecuilar name
I didn't know (I didn't know)
I didn't know before she went away
I know now (I know now)
I know now that it's too damn late

This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
Now she's gone
Now she's all gone

Will she ever find her way
I'm too damn young to be too late but am I
Yet again I'm kicking myself
And I'll be here in battle scars waiting for you
Waiting for you now

This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
This girl has gone far away
Now she's gone
Now she's gone
Now she's all gone

Walking Alone

Come together like a foot in a shoe
Only this time I think I stuck my foot in my mouth
Thinking out loud and acting in vain
Knocking over anyone that stands in my way

Sometimes I need to apologize
Sometimes I need to admit that I ain't right
Sometimes I should just keep my mouth
Or only say hello
Sometimes I still feel I'm walking alone

Walk on eggshells on my old stomping ground
Yet there's really no one left that's hanging around
Isn't that another familiar face
Too drunk to figure out they're fading away

Sometimes I need to apologize
Sometimes I need to admit that I ain't right
Sometimes I should just keep my mouth
Or only say hello
Sometimes I still feel I'm walking alone

Sometimes I need to apologize
Sometimes I need to admit that I ain't right
Sometimes I should just keep my mouth
Or only say hello
Sometimes I still feel I'm walking alone

Reject

Who the hell are to tell me
What I am and what's my master plan
What makes you think that it includes you
Self-righteous wealth stop flattering yourself

So when the smoke clears here I am
You're reject all-American
Sucking up your social sect
Making you a nervous wreck
To hell and back and hell again I've gone
You're not my type
You're not my type

What's the difference between you and me
I do what I want and you do what you're told
So listen up shut the hell up
It's no big deal and I'll see you in hell

So when the smoke clears here I am
You're reject all-American
Sucking up your social sect
Making you a nervous wreck
To hell and back and hell again I've gone
You're not my type
You're not my type
You're not my type
You're not my type

So when the smoke clears here I am
You're reject all-American
Fallen from grace right on my face
To hell and back and hell again I've gone
(???)

Take Back

You pushed me once too far again
I'd love to break your fucking teeth
And stick a knife in the center of your back
You better grow some eyes in the back of your head
I fight dirty just like your looks
Can't take can't take can't take anymore

Take back take back take

The taste of bad blood on the tip of my tounge
An eye for an eye a gun for a gun
Cold-cocked and I'm taking back what's mine
Expect it when you're least expecting it
No loss of love the smell of regret
Lights out can't take it anymore

Take back take back take back take back
shite

King For A Day

Started at the age of four
My mother went to the grocery store
Went sneaking through her bedroom door
To find something in a size four

Sugar and spice and everything nice
Wasn't meant for only girls
G.I. Joe in pantyhose
Is making room for the one and only
King for a day princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day princess by dawn
Just wait 'til all the guys get a load of me

My daddy threw me in therapy
He thinks I'm not a real man
Who put the drag in the drag queen
Don't knock it until you've tried it

Sugar and spice and everything nice
Wasn't meant for only girls
G.I. Joe in pantyhose
Is making room for the one and only
King for a day princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day princess by dawn
Just wait 'til all the guys get a load of me

Sugar and spice and everything nice
Wasn't meant for only girls
G.I. Joe in pantyhose
Is making room for the one and only
King for a day princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day princess by dawn
King for a day in a leather thong
King for a day princess by dawn
Just wait 'til all the guys
Just wait 'til all the guys
Just wait 'til all the guys get a load of me

Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)

(fuck)
Another turning point a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go
So make the best of this test and don't ask why
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

Prosthetic Head

I see you
Down in the front line
Such a sight for sore eyes you're a suicide makeover
Plastic eyes
Looking through a numbskull
Self effaced what's his face you erased yourself so shut up
You don't let up

You have a growth that must be treated
Like a severed severe pain in the neck
You can smell it but you can't see it
No explanation identified 'cause
You don't know
You don't say
And you got no reply

Hey you
Where did you come from
Got a head full of lead you're an inbred bastard son
All dressed up
Red blooded amannequin
Do or die no reply don't deny that you're synthetic
You're pathetic

You have a growth that must be treated
Like a severed severe pain in the neck
You can smell it but you can't see it
No explanation identified 'cause
You don't know
You don't say
And you got no reply
You don't know
You don't say
And you got no reply

I see you
Down in the front line
Such a sight for sore eyes you're a suicide makeover
You don't know
You don't say
And you got no reply
You don't know
You don't say
And you got no reply
