Yeah, I love the office
And yeah, I love watching friends.'
How many times will I repeat this before
I get into your pants?
Sure,' I wanna meet your friends.
I'd love to meet your fam.
But if I'm being honest, I'll never
be the Jim to your Pam.
My interests and hobbies are more
inspired by the size and
shape and the space that
exists between your thighs.
Tell me what you like and I
will tell you a lie.
I know it's hard to tell when I'm
staring you in the eyes.
And I'll call you a whore if I
don't get what I want cause
I don't respect women.
Shitty comedian, I'm a
Social Chameleon.
Yeah, I love adventures and
late night trips to
shopping centers. And
Yeah I'll smoke you down but I'm
Short on bud because I'm
in between jobs right now.
I'll ask about your occupation and
I'll act like I care about the
classes you're taking. And,
Yeah I'll take you out
to a McDonalds cause I'm
low on cash right now.
Every movie and
TV show,
I've watched them all and
I've love every episode. Every
Song and album
recommendation
I'll lie to your face and
act like I don't hate them and.
I'll call you a whore if I
Don't get what I want cause
I don't respect women.
Shitty comedian, I'm a
Social Chameleon.
I'll change my colors in-between
every new social situation.
Don't act like you haven't
enjoyed our conversations.
I'll lie to you if that's what
I think I should do.
Cause I think I love you
more than the dude that
you're talking to.
And if my facade's not enough
then I'll shut down and block you
and tell you to fuck off.
Cause all I am and will ever be is
a social chameleon.
Shitty comedian,
I'm a social chameleon.

Fitted T-Shirt

I will work my body until it kills me.
Forget about the people that I really don't need.
Transplant hipster, fitted T-shirt,
stole my girl but I don't need her.
I will lock myself inside of my house.
Don't bother knocking cause I'm not coming out.
Smooth talk, needle drop, I should of had my doubts.
Forget your social skills you wont need them now.
I guess you're more cultured than me.
You always did intimidate me.
Cross your name off the list
of the people I do not vibe with.
I guess you're more cultured than me.
You always did intimidate me.
Cross your name off the list
of the people I do not vibe with.
High top vans, underground bands,
art degree with his own clothing brand.
Skateboard, incense, I guess it makes sense
that you would be that kind of man.
You take the highway back to your home town.
You think you're clever but I think you should go.
Transplant hipster, fitted T-shirt
she's your problem now.
I guess you're more cultured than me.
You always did intimidate me.
Cross your name off the list
of the people I do not vibe with.
I guess you're more cultured than me.
You always did intimidate me.
Cross your name off the list
of the people I do not vibe with.
I'm cutting all ties with you
don't act like you're my friend
I didn't like you from the start
and now its the end.
you should leave before I start
throwing my furniture at your head
I didn't like you from the start
and now its the end.

Pale Imitation
03:38
|
|||
|
Take the mic cause I'm up here flailing.
Screaming' bout the classes I'm failing
and relationships that haven't worked out yet.
Kill me now cause I'm up here squirming.
Belting out some tired fucking words that
other people have already said.
You said it better yourself.
There is no way I'm winning you back.
Insert your name here
I'm sorry you feel like that, but
I'm just a pale imitation
of those who came before.
All you see in your eyes is
your own frustration.
There will always be more
of dudes like me
up wailing on the same four chords.
Link in my bio to my Bandcamp and SoundCloud.
I put it on my tinder profile
and I haven't gotten
any new matches.
Sent out a cover to a couple of friends and
I made sure the messages sent but
I ask if they listen, they say
they haven't.
Don't let me see your room cause
I'll ask you if that's a guitar.
And if you let me play it
I'll play blackbird with no shame.
Cause I'm just a pale imitation
of those who came before.
All you see in your eyes is
your own frustration.
There is and will always be more
of dudes like me
up wailing on the same four chords.
And I am sorry mom,
but I still haven't found a job
I've practicing all those nights cause
my favorite bars got an open mic.
Oh, I'm just a pale imitation
of those who came before.
All you see in your eyes is
your own frustration.
There is and will always be more
of dudes like me
up wailing on the same four chords.

Bottlecap
02:07

|
You found your fortune
staring at you from the other
side of a bottle-cap of a
bottle of Jones.
You found your fortune
with little lucky numbers
and even though it meant nothing
it gave you some hope.
Your horoscope is telling you
how to behave from a poorly written
app on your phone.
Your horoscope is telling you
everything that you
probably could've
figured out on your own.
But you're sure the stars are aligned.
You're sure that every little ritual
that you perform isn't just
a waste of your time.
And you'll ignore if it ever starts
to not come true.
And you'll keep believing cause
believing is what you're supposed to do.
The healing you found in
holistic medicine
was really just a theory
that turned out to be a hoax.
The ghost that you found
in the basement was really just
prank your friends played,
it was all just a joke.
The fortune teller you took me too
was really just a lady who's been
scammin you with her fancy robes.
My life line should've ended last year
but I'm doing fine, I'm alive,
I just thought you should know.
But you're so sure the stars are aligned.
You're sure that every little ritual
that you perform isn't just
a waste of your time.
And you'll ignore if it ever starts
to not come true.
And you'll keep believing cause
believing is what you're supposed to do.
You believe in everything
but yourself
and it shows.
You believe in everything

Say It Back
04:11

The two of us have
been together for years.
Gotten to know
our dreams and fears. And while
most of it has been great,
it's not so perfect as of late.
We've been building walls.
You've been dodging my calls.
But that is so far from the
worst of it all.
Cause I feel better
when you feel worse.
And you're more secure
when I am hurt.
We both act like
nothing has happened.
No apologies for each other's actions.
Cause we both know
how much we love
to maintain the status quo.
We've got problems but
they're easy to ignore.
We come home late,
but at least we lock the front door.
I'll forget what you just said.
This is all just in my head.
So I'll sleep on the couch,
and you take the bed.
Those are pretty big words for
someone five foot tall.
I'd say what I really want
if I just had the balls.
All these things we're shouting
it's too much at once.
A few more nights like this
before it stops being fun.
But I just love you too much,
no, I didn't mean that at all.
But dealing with you
is better than no one at all.
So I hope I tear a hole
in my throat, screaming at you.
With you screaming back,
I wouldn't have it
any other way than that.
We've got problems but
they're easy to ignore.
We come home late,
but at least we lock the front door.
I'll forget what you just said.
This is all just in my head.
So I'll sleep on the couch,
and you take the bed.
She said ,"I am done with you.
I'm not staying here cause I feel like I'm supposed.
So goodbye, goodnight, and all that.
just please, for me, just say it back."
I am done with you.
I'm not staying here cause I feel like I'm supposed.
So goodbye, goodnight, and all that crap
just please, please, just say it back.

Don't Die Early
04:08
|
|||
|
Two years ago I tried exercising
meditation, ketogenic dieting.
It didn't stick cause I gave up on it.
I would rather die than give up on breadsticks.
But New Year's this year,
I bought a notebook
to conquer my fears and
negative outlook.
Needless to say, it didn't
work out that way
cause I never wrote them down
in the first place.
I have tried all these things and
nothing seems to work.
Why do good things have to be
bad for me, why do bad things have to hurt?
It seems so simple when I
say it like that, but if its really so simple,
I wouldn't feel like crap.
My favorite things are killing me
but I won't accept responsibility.
You said I should step outside myself.
You recommended professional help, well
how's this for you?
I'm flying out to California.
They bundle exorcisms with acupuncture,
it'll only cost me a small fortune.
A small price to pay, or at least
that's what they say.
Recovery time is only a couple of days.
I have tried everything and
nothing seems to work.
Why do good things have to be
bad for me, why do bad things have to hurt?
It seems so simple when I
say it like that, but if its really so simple,
I wouldn't feel like crap.
My favorite things are killing me
but I won't accept responsibility.
I told her I'd give up on smoking,
and if you've ever been there,
you know how that goes.
She seemed so disappointed
and I guess she had a point when she said
,"You'll die early. Before all of us."
The way she said it, I felt what she meant
cause what she said had stuck. So,
Don't die early.
We still love you.
Don't die early.
You've still got things to do.
Don't die early.
Take care of yourself.
Just don't die early.
Cause we still love you.

Eat the Rich

I've got some friends from another neighborhood
that are more well off than me.
Every year they go on vacation,
first class, with their families.
Meanwhile I'm stuck making 8 bucks
selling a popcorn deluxe
that costs than my wage
that I work with unpaid breaks.
My friends are buying gifts
and throwing their money away
while I'm buying bulk freezer foods
and digging up spare change.
I don't say anything when you flex on me
with your semester in Italy.
But, deep down I am praying
that I win the lottery.
I am green with envy.
Such things are below me.
But I am at a bottom of a pit of self despair
And its becoming to much to bear.
I am green with envy.
Jealousy unending.
I am at a bottom of a pit of self despair.
And I'm increasingly aware that it is.
depressing.
I want an endless stream of funding to finance my dreams
Instead half the time I'm working, I am nearly half asleep.
I wanna do a back flip mid air twist off a trampoline
My excuse: I'm just too busy to practice those kinds of things.
I want notoriety, a Gucci leather jacket and flying V.
Yeah, I swear that I am not into material things.
I just want enough money to never have to work again.
Or at least just enough to pay for my insulin.
I am green with envy.
Such things are below me.
But I am at a bottom of a pit of self despair
And its becoming to much to bear.
I am green with envy.
Jealousy unending.
I am at a bottom of a pit of self despair.
And I'm increasingly aware that it is.
depressing.
Fuck the American Dream.
You're so out of touch, you think you know everything.
Fuck the American Dream.
I'm sure these starving kids will appreciate your retweet.
Fuck the American Dream.
If you really cared you'd donate to charity.
Fuck the American Dream.
But if you wanna shut me up then you can share it with me
Cause I may be green with envy.
Jealousy unending.
But I've still got bills that I need to pay.
I am green with envy.
Jealousy unending.
And I'll take money over morals any goddamn day.
EAT THE RICH.

The kids will eat you alive.''
And you know they will,
but you still try to survive
in this climate of excess entertainment
where everyone's famous.
The kids will eat you alive,''
but you've made this thing your life.
One night, you said
you won't work your nine to five.'
This'll work out or you'll die.
And it's worked out pretty well.
But you know that time is telling you.
The more people watching today.'
The more people who won't stay.
But you've made this thing your life,
and right now it's nice.
Why can't we make the good things last forever?'
Why's it such a futile endeavor?
I don't know if that's true.
But I guess,'' it's worked out for you.
You said you wanted a wife and kids
And you'd send them off to colleges
but your work more important'
so you thought that life was forfeit.
You can't have what you want
and do what you want.
And those who seem to have that
are just faking it out of habit.
And habit's what controls you'
when you've sold out your soul to
something bigger than yourself.
You put your conscience on the shelf.
But here you are.''
A bright and shining star,
far above the world that loves you
for who they think you are.
I don't know if that's true.
But I guess, it's worked out for you.
You lived your lifeb
like the best version of yourself
wasn't you, but someone else.

This song is the extras on a DVD.
The words mean nothing but they sound so catchy.
This song is a scene that didn't make the final cut.
Instead of throwing it out, in my head, it was stuck.
So I tacked it on, at the end
for all of my friends.
If you've listened this far,
consider yourself one of them.
This song is the extras on a DVD.
The words mean nothing but they sound good enough for me.
This song is the extras on a DVD.
The words mean nothing but thank you for listening.
