Suspension of Disbelief
04:37
|
|||
Please mind the ever-widening gap
The banality of evil, I'm seeing it now
Forced to worship at the temple of bureaucratic doom
A coup in search of a legal theory
You're as scary as a hen do in Blackpool
Chow down on your ultimate dinosaur drumstick
Chew your way through another impossible fossil
You're a sycamore seed, blowing in the breeze
Just one more spinning propeller
Lost here, lost there, lost everywhere
As subtle as an MC Hammer
Stop!
Monster, monster
Nuke the hurricane
I'm impaled on logic's railings
Scrolling by the dummy drive thru
Rap rap rapping on hell's window
Frozen planet go melty melty
Still kowtow to high society
Feeding on simulacrumbs
In a halcyon daze
The trauma of an Etonian
The cuddly face of persecution, Paddington
Kamikaze white clothes courage
Pound shop Westworld laps of shame
Has the world spun off its axis?
His heart's still beating but he's gone
Suspension of disbelief
Patch me up and send me in
Lackadaisical lackeys are marching
In time with a fool's anthem
Suspension of disbelief
Shrewd move plain sight maw worm
Shaken not stir crazy
Stand firm for a second term
Good little germ

Famous Doctor Pavilion

At the Famous Doctor Pavilion
Edward Jenner's nowhere to be seen
There is always a second opinion
Endless buffering and buffoonery
I'm as weird as Bin Laden's hard drive
But I think it's time you start to act your wage
They don't seem to know I'm quiet quitting
I try to stay cryptic and ignored
At the Famous Doctor Pavilion
I found a nurse to check my pulse
He said, you're only barely living
Why don't you charge your lonely phone?
Everywhere is exploding heads
Depress, repress, oppress and undress
It's nice to be somewhere without TV
He tapped into his glowing rectangle

Novichok
02:30
|
|||
Do you enjoy watching the banquet, while slowly sinking in the sand?
A world made of fuzzy felts, it's a blanket celebration of the bland
Give me the Novichok, I'm counting on you to rescue, set me free
I am the glacier, you're the mountain
Modern slavery doesn't seem all that modern to me

Mayonnaise Lifestyle
03:21
|
|||
I feel as crazy as Robin Friday
And how I wish that it was a Friday
But now I've realized it's a Friday
I'm feeling crazier than Robin Friday
It's kind of an aligned with Pie day
A watch all his videos online day
A sit around in my pants day
A feeling starved of romance day
Elliott Smith's teenage mullet
Shocked me to my senses
But it shouldn't shock me
Given the timeframe
That he went to school
How many mushrooms do you know?
There's porcini and portobello
I haven't eaten a portobello for far too long
MUSHROOM (mumble) MUSHROOM (murmur)
MUSHROOM (mushroom) MUSHROOM (mushroom mumble murmur)
The more you want it, the more it won't happen
When you don't want it, you'll get it and won't want it
Asshole, crash hole, car crash asshole
Mayonnaise lifestyle
Asshole, crash hole, car crash asshole
Mayonnaise lifestyle
You're a car crash asshole
The more you want it, the more it won't happen
When you don't want it, you'll get it and won't want it

Hippopotamus
02:52
|
|||
The hippopotamus, that was on top of us
Was a Florida man, for every day of the year
I'm so relieved that it's safe to remove my hardware
Thank you computer, for telling me it's OK
The Chicago Bulls logo, when it's upside down
Looks like a robot doing a crab
I just thought I'd throw that in there
No need to thank me
If I'm not enough for you, upgrade to premium
I'm a sandwich maker, of the highest order
And what does a Proud Boy actually have to be proud of?
Answers on a postcard, if you please
The old man fell in love with his arthritis
It always made him weak at the knees
I just thought I'd throw that in there
No need to thank me

Lost Connection
04:08
|
|||
Something about a lost connection
Immaturing with advancing age
Just another monk that owns an iPhone
And gets his funding from the CIA
Intoxication for the intoxicated
Cut your political teeth
From the safety of your bed and breakfast
I'm sure there are better things that I could do with your time
Than stare at photos of Euro 96 goalkeepers
Marginalize my universalism, please
Regurgitate your great replacement theory
My circadian rhythm is one lone bongo
Let me introduce you to the art of the goof
I have enough red flags to start an online store, if you want to
Let's watch the bomb disposal robots
From the safety of my bedroom window
He shot two zebras then played tennis
His critics call him out of touch
If right wing populists are careless
That doesn't surprise me much
Something about a lost connection
(Connection lost a about something)
Is how I choose to spend my day
I do not give you much attention
(Attention much you give not do I)
Try not to fritter it away
Something about a lost connection
(Connection lost a about something)
Razzle dazzle pygmalion
Something about a lost connection
Emergency first responder alien
Something about a lost connection
Something about a lost connection

These days drug dealing is an honest profession
When you really think about it
I'm scared Jordan Peterson's haemorrhoids
Will soon be coming for everyone
I am wearing daddy shoes
And I am wearing dad issues
On my fast fashion sleeve
I think I will google cow trampling statistics
Just to take my mind off this
And these pretentious vignettes
Won't do anything of any real substance now
But at least they stop me reaching
For that bottle of Russian balsam
In the kitchen cupboard
Fuchsia lips, temporary blips
Warhammer nerds, tropical birds
What was arcane becomes mundane
Swept up in endless hurricanes
So let's just fight this raging fire
With a minute squirt of gasoline
So let's just fight this raging fire
With a minute squirt of gasoline

Bobby Balloon
02:50
|

Bobby Balloon stormed into his room
Listening to Jay-Z on Tidal
He was filling with gas
And increasing in mass
But the science was not on his side now
Bobby Balloon was just a cartoon
And he didn't even know
Swell swell pop went Bobby Balloon
And that was the end of Bobby Balloon
Annabella Sphinx went out for some drinks
With the Lords and the Ladies of the District
She was offered a crust
But it turned into dust
And all she had left was a biscuit
For Annabella Sphinx it was just high jinks
But she didn't even know
Chip chip crumble went Annabella Sphinx
And that was the end of Annabella Sphinx
Duncan Sprawl listened to a call
That was not for him to hear
He didn't want to lose
This front page news
And everybody drowned in the tears
Duncan Sprawl was heading for a fall
And he didn't even know
Tear tear rip went Duncan Sprawl
And that was the end of Duncan Sprawl

Beautiful Places
03:47
|
|||
The Grand Canyon
Nuclear weapons
Strip lighting in the sand
Beautiful places
Ugly people
Sometimes they go
Hand in hand
Heaven on Earth
Ignorant locals
Architecture somewhat bland
Beautiful places
Ugly buildings
Sometimes they go
Hand in hand
You may think it's picturesque
But they will run you out of town
You will think the town is pretty
Until they knock you to the ground
Beautiful places
Ugly people
I remember where I came from
Being threatened
So we ran
Beautiful places
Ugly people
Sometimes they go
Hand in hand
Reagan's babies
Thatcher's children
There's no telling where they land
Beautiful places
Ugly people
Sometimes they go
Hand in hand

Bushwhacker
05:26
|

What will it take for us to become more forward looking?
If you try sometimes, you just might find
You get what you get
£150000 a minute
A concrete fortress, fireworks and military jets
Bushwhacker
Wake me up from my dream
Bushwhacker
Drunkards, fools, killers and thieves
Carlos says, I'm a beam of light from the mind of God
And I appreciate the sentiment, really I do
But I suspect that Carlos might have taken LSD
It's 2023, it's not the Summer of Love
Bushwhacker
Winter winds howling like hounds
Bushwhacker
He'll put us all in the ground
Bushwhacker
Blame not favours for thee
Bushwhacker
Agenda warming the sea
I don't want to take an IQ test because
I don't want to find out the result
Ultraman gangbang storm-ravaged state of mind
Prairie oyster breakfast for the troll
Bushwhacker
Empty landscape bringing me down
Bushwhacker
Prising all the jewels from the crown
Bushwhacker
What goes around doesn't come around
Bushwhacker
Not one kitten she wouldn't drown
I don't really need to take this red pill now
Can I have a hot buttered croissant?
It's like extreme right-wing bukkake in here
They want to tell you what you want
Allegorical or metaphorical
Bizarre is better than banal
The early stages of your universe
As senseless as they are brutal
Bushwhacker
On the way to Disneyland
He saw a dead pig on the motorway
It was not a part of the attractions
But he enjoyed it anyway
Bushwhacker

Crouching Crouch hidden Crouch
Superspreader line of sight
Demonise the workers
Put your tongue up the crack of the establishment
That'll see you right
Benevolent malevolence
I'm cautiously pessimistic
Innocent bystanders twisting the knife
Wearing stupid like a badge of honour
It's like a bad dream
Like being trapped in a lighthouse with Roy Keane
And there's more brains in a sausage
Unless you're in a pig skyscraper
And you can admire the view
But you're on top of a pig skyscraper

Strawberries in Winter
03:55
|

Strawberries in winter weird me out
But I will eat them all the same
We are just internet friends now
Anger is a slow-working venom
Strawberries in winter weird me out
Bill Gates and my son's friend's dad
Messing with 5G bats
About as believable
As Gregory becoming a truck
Tribal trouble treble trouble
Tribal trouble trouble trouble
Tribal trouble treble trouble
Trouble trouble tribal trouble
Don't think for too long about the fact
That migrant hunt is now a headline
It's true days off will feel like the blink of an eye
But at least the clocking in machine says thank you
Don't think for too long about the fact
Basically famous
Basically done
When will North Korea see fit to pay Sweden?
They took delivery of all those cars
They turned me into gammon by messing with Dahl
Idiot savant's still a savant
Just give me something that I want
Then give me something I don't want
Idiot savant's still a savant
Just give me something that I want
Then give me something I don't want
I'm eating strawberries in the wintertime

Boomer Tomb

Welcome to my boomer tomb
Would you like to try my SodaStream?
I apologise for the mess
And the death of my 20th century dream
I came here to tell you
That I've never heard of this person you've heard of
Sobbing is surrender
Marvel at my patchwork personality
My soul is an unfinished painting
Could you please fill in the gaps?
Precis it down
Don't forget to sign up for my cod psychology course
I'm a caricature of a caricature
I think I'll just lie down
Over here

Taekwondo Condo
05:18
|
|||
I don't want to try Taekwondo
In his condo tonight
Jesse always wants to wrestle
Always to playfight
I like to play video games
Maybe watch some TV
But if I turn my back on him
He'll soon be attacking me
I'll soon be tumbling down
Then he will pin me down
I think I finally lost my mojo
In the "dojo" tonight
Jesse kicked my ass again
I tried to be polite
Why can't we play video games?
Or maybe watch TV?
But then I turned my back on him
And he roundhouse kicked me
Jesse, we will never go into business now
Not that you ever produced a viable plan
I'd be grateful if you would consider
Giving me back that 15 grand
Jesse, I need it for my mother's operation
Jesse, what do you get from my humiliation?
Jesse, so many big ideas above your station
Jesse, you need another outlet for your frustration
But why when those nice girls came round
Did you choose to throw them out?
And why when I have bad concussion
Would I want a second bout?
You know that I have German family
It's offensive to say "kraut"
It isn't just the protein shake
That leaves a nasty taste in the mouth
Jesse, it's been real fun and all
But you are almost 34
It's time that you repaired this broken friendship
And the hole in the living room door
Jesse, what you swinging those nunchucks for?
Jesse, why you taking that sword off the wall?

He ran out of epithets
Before he knew what one was
Authentic foreskin of Christ, he says
Prince Andrew memorial grope
I'm talking to a robot in Nebraska
When I should be listening to disco octaves
If I am frightened of nothing
It's nothing to be frightened of
French press
Gegenpress
Corby trouser press
Are we capsized by our dalliances?
Ass milk mensch
Won't you ape this specious reasoning?
I'm an angry fossil
I'm annoyed
I'm an annoyed
Ammonoid
Engines burning out at full throttle
It's been eluding us since Aristotle
And we've all been drunk by the bottle
We've been deluding us since Aristotle
Look at all the hug refuseniks
Taking joy in the disconnect
The British bulldog shit spirit
Sadly truncated by injuries
Where's my 48 hours at Rockfield?
Fighting time like Zidane on Materazzi
Your yoga mat can't save you
And it doesn't even make a very comfortable bed
From billion year old rock
To Range Rover rock
I'll be your rock
Because despite all your rage
You are still not Nicolas Cage
And it's as sad as finishing a Big Mac
But Harry has a one love armband
So everything is fine now
Engines burning out at full throttle
It's been eluding us since Aristotle
And we've all been drunk by the bottle
We've been deluding us since Aristotle

I am naked from the waist down
I am naked from the waist down
I'm staying inside
But I'm out on the town
I am naked from the waist down
Tyranny is over there
And London is open for business
Does the wife beater get a knighthood,
Just because he's your dad?
Is the biggest criminal gang in fact the government?
Your print media stooges
Seem superficially plausible
But they are naked from the waist down
Yes they are naked, Eric, from the waist down
Objective and balanced?
I like how that sounds
But they are naked from the waist down
Are we ranting our way to success,
From one perceived injustice to another?
Or are we just simply baby monkeys
Clinging to adopted wolf mothers?
Do we mean what we post?
Or is it all just striking a pose?
Tap tap tapping on my keyboard
I guess that I am posing right now
And so I'm naked from the waist down
Yes I am naked from the waist down
There's no substance to my so-called art
I'm just fooling around
I am naked from the waist down
Celebrity pawns
Celebrity porn
The politics of envy
The politics of scorn
Conducting most of my business from my gold plated toilet
It's quite the power move to exercise control
While I am sitting
While I am naked
From the waist down

Good Afternoon
03:02
|

Good afternoon
Sad Saturday suit
Keep consecrating that coronation oil
Infinite pigs at infinite troughs
Good afternoon
Unless you're having a tennis tantrum
The news was a goldmine of dipshittery this morning
Look out for the flock of stochastic parrots
Good afternoon
A match made in heaven in hell
No ego ramp for me
Only a downward self-esteem slope
Please collect the debris for my family
A match made in heaven in hell
Quit the non sequiturs
A match made in heaven in hell
Scintillating scimitar
A match made in heaven in hell
Good afternoon
And do you have a boon for my boon?
Prepare for the onslaught of psycho chatbots
Please alert our ten mutual friends
I got my mojo shirking
I'm the world's worst sugar father
At least that's something to be proud of
Son, never wash a bumble bee
I got my mojo shirking
A can of Tab Clear and some Walkers Hot & Fruity
Why doesn't anyone remember?
Good afternoon

Please Simon, I know I've been bad
But don't you put my life on your podcast
Sorry Diana, I can't save you now
Who do you think I am, SuperTed?
I'm a depraved individual
Watching depraved individuals
But with the detachment of a smartphone
Moon Daddy, I've got something to say to you
Apologies if my pregnant pauses are showing now
How I wish this was your salary not your phone number
At this point in time, well, I might as well be a leaf blower
Rearranging the remnants of my scattered mind

Wheelie Bin on Fire
05:39
|

All these acquaintances
But which ones are your real friends?
This wheelie bin's on fire
I am the drone pilot
Causing destruction from some far-off land
Bermuda Triangle
I fear that you're the place for me now
This wheelie bin's on fire
You cannot douse volcanoes erupting in my hollow head
It is a shame that we don't see one single star in our night sky...
This wheelie bin's on fire
...Glimmer
This wheelie bin's on fire
And country boys and girls don't dare to look each other in the eye...
...Shy young lover
This wheelie bin's on fire
No girl ever glided by
And touched the brim of your cowboy hat
But that's as necessary as an appendix
So why you choose to worry about that?
We're surrounded by baffling scaffolding
With everything and nothing to do
Sometimes I feel like I'm some politician
And nothing that I tell myself is true
They're just words to serve an agenda
And nothing that I tell myself is true
They're just words to serve an agenda
And nothing that I tell myself is true
They're just words to serve an agenda
They're just words
This wheelie bin's on fire

Antique Country
03:41
|

Getting all worked up about a Sonic the Hedgehog film
Living in an antique country
This asshole is ready and puckered up
Waiting for smoke to be blown
Excuse me while I go out of my way
To try and get a rattlesnake bite
I want to be outside not inside the room
I'm a man of illegal substance
As chic as a visible panty line
Pressing buttons with my knuckles
Harakiri hamster guilt
Are our baseline realities even the same?
Living in an antique country

Carrion
05:26
|

We're fly-tipping on a wasteland scrub
We see ghosts emerging from the undergrowth
And I can't stand to see you weep
When I'm so numb I cannot cry
Yes I'm so numb I cannot cry anymore
I've been here so long that I am circling the vultures
But I can't swoop in their humble sky anymore
Death to the truth and all of her truculent children
Become my carrion
She is only Grace by name
Sticks her thumb up to say that it's tickety-boo
Because tickety-boo means it's OK
But it's never going to be OK anymore
Become my carrion
Am I so dumb I can't learn lies anymore?
Like their broken system, we ossify
Till I can't soar in your open sky anymore
It's death to the truth and all of her truculent children
Become my carrion
I'm so numb I cannot cry anymore
Become my carrion
Am I so dumb I can't learn lies anymore?
Become my carrion
I'm so numb I cannot cry anymore
Become my carrion
Am I so dumb I can't learn lies anymore?
Become my carrion

Mulling over
The ending of The Sopranos
I was distracted
By a multi-function window cleaning brush
I'm always attracted
To that which will destroy us
I'm alone on a clifftop
And I'm chasing down mountain goats
I left all my eggs
In one basket which I then set on fire
I was trying to avoid
Scatalogical quips
But one slipped out
Mulling over how Bill Wyman
Was almost his own son-in-law
I was distracted
By a somewhat fitting play on words
Why man?
You can't meditate
Or deep breathe the apocalypse away
Misfortune goes viral
And on this heavenly myriad
I'm chasing down mountain goats

Troublesome Lie
04:11
|

Darling it's sometimes hard to reach you
Given I don't know where you are
I don't quite know just how I find you
But if I'm holding my guitar
I know you might drop by
So I devote my life
To a troublesome lie
I could have been an academic
Sometimes you say that I still can
But I don't think that you quite get it
I wasn't made for making plans
I'm carried on this tide
And I can never hide
From this troublesome lie
However much I try

Two Minute Pop Song

Intellectualising whacking off
Wipe till you can only see blood
I'm doxxing your paypig
Chemtrails and banshees
Money to spend
Comic book templates
Cash cow rear end
Colonoscopy
Take it as a chance to lie down, my friend
Can I take it to the bridge?
Yes you can take it to the bridge
But don't throw the baby in the water
Here's your two minute pop song, Caroline

Tato Head

With this much small dick energy
We can harness enough juice
To power the whole grid
Sublime and useless truth
Black mould hovel
Russian sausage tycoon
Disconsolate in the consulate
You're a prisoner
In your mansion of fiction
Republican Jesus
Highlight the cost of living
From the comfort of your palace
You're not my real dad
And you're not the real Santa
I'd rectify this lousy situation
But I lost the cheat codes...

Dial-Up Modem Brain
04:38
|

Talk to my hand
Because my hand is glistening
And then you can shower me
With confetti conceit
My brain's becoming
Like a dial-up modem
Influencer influenza girl
Triggered with increasing frequency
Catching the reactionary virus
Like a fungal zombie
If something wonderful's afoot
Then something evil will try
To blow it out the water
If something wonderful
Is blown out the water
Then something evil will try
To snatch it from the air
I get the feeling
I am going round in circles
Or triangles
Or dodecahedrons
Click on endless links
And someone's bound to hack you
That's not a metaphor
That's real life
Even when you trick yourself
To live a lie
I am in the bozo zone
I can't strike quite the right tone
I'm thousands of miles from home
Did I make a bad decision?
Constantly misunderstood
I can't see the trees for the wood
I would opt for something good
But I'm wracked with indecision
There's always something in the way
My home is where I never stay
Mother, when you went away,
Did you make a bad decision?
How can we ever know,
If it's a bad decision?

Nihilist Stripes
03:56
|

Won't you show me your nihilist stripes?
I'm the bellend of the ball
Barely got a pass
At the University of Life
Not light enough to fly
Iron butterfly
Won't you show me your nihilist stripes?
Normally I am completely unaware
Of my blind spot
So I disregard it
Nonstop lampoon
Infinite cocoon
Clever clogs ain't feeling so clever anymore
Why am I always slowing down?
Singapore man suing his partner
For not agreeing to be his partner
Elvis Presley's private jet
Dilapidated, 260k
You don't think that you can afford that
You don't think about anything at all, Anne
Staying classy, doubling down on
The holocaust survivor in the town hall
Oh, would you look up there, it's a spy balloon!
What day was it when Mr Quaalude came?
He gave me a new dress code for my face
Won't you give me back my slow-wave sleep?
I don't think the power naps are helping me
Plane after plane refusing to crash
My employer thinks my sickness is a holiday
Avatar depression means I'm eating
Ice cream at the end of the world
Won't show me your nihilist stripes?

I never thought I'd love you
And guess what I never did
With regards to the stars above you
Aren't they really all just satellites?
It's not a canal if you don't
Find a trolley and a bike
It's not a cabal if you don't
Try to mount some heads on spikes
The politics of offence
Or the politics of sitting on the fence
Your end of level boss
Overstates the benefits
And they will trivialise the risk
That's the amount before tax
Slit your wrists in the bath
You wanted peaches and cream
But you got a bigger sprout
It's all part of the job
The goblin's goblet of gob
The morning hour, it has gold in its mouth
But not for you
But not for you
And there's nothing you can do
But play computer games in the rain
It's not for you
It's not for you
But here is something you can do
Play computer games in the rain
I didn't turn you on
To not enjoy sunshine
I only turn you on
To try to numb the ache
Fake smile at the ready
For your Wednesday day of pain
Though it's extinction time
Hearts may meet and dreams do shine
Is it a question of learning how to rationalize,
Or learning how to use a gun?
The black and white world of the black and whites
A charmed life coming undone
Your doubly interesting double standards
Did you hear about the crush depth rape list?
There are all kinds of beauty and we're none of them
This is oblique at its bleakest
Snuggle up inside the trauma zone
Play computer games in the rain
Her antipathy to the Antipodes
It really drives me insane
All quiet on the Western Front
The killer of the killer of the killer
Now where's that special relationship?
What is it that I can't remember?
Ignore the source of dark matter
Play computer games in the rain
9 o'clock hamster hop up on your wheel
And nail that jelly to the wall
Nobody cares if the cat is black or white
As long as it's a fat ass greedy cat
We're muted due to a copyright claim
This is more than a trilemma
Jumping a shark a second
Lesser evil lady shooter
She's a laugh out loud assassin
Walkie talkie infant zombie
Chug that jug of bootleg liquor
It's not for you
It's not for you
And there's nothing you can do
But play computer games in the rain
