January 27 01:34
it was too cold to smoke, so you pulled me in the bathroom you said you knew this would happen since J2 too cold to smoke, my hands are freezing let's have another one anyway but I keep going back to the year when all I knew was two by fours and the freckles on her cheeks I meant it when I said I'd meet you on January 27, 2032 I watched you cry into your french fries but I don't think anyone saw you watched you cry till the vinegar got in your eyes you watched me cry into my french fries but I keep going back to the year when all I knew was two by fours and the freckles on her cheeks I meant it when I said I'd meet you on January 27, 2032 I'm still thinking about you

Knucklehead 02:22
I still remember the name you had for me "knucklehead" we'd watch the crows through the window from the couch been about eight years now, but I still feel small homuncular one too many microwaved hot dogs bloated, but never taller my dad was five foot eight I am just five foot four and a little bit thinner than you "knucklehead" other four inches stored away in the camper in the back it's been about eight years now, but I still feel guilty I missed you that day a ghost in the liners of a Springsteen CD older, but never over my dad was five foot eight

Frog Song 02:06
Polly-wog slimy skin us frogs just wanna be treated with kindness please be tender to the frog Ugly James gape-a-grin toad gone wrong we're just frogs Billy Bandy-Knees a frog is just as sensitive We're just frogs we're naked in the summer and when the winter comes again, we'll cover ourselves in mud We're just frogs our bodies are soft and just because you have a chance doesn't mean that you have to take it we all turn ugly sometimes so be gentle

Drained 01:10
Cut myself shaving the blood and Barbasol tastes like candy it tastes like Friday Night I haven't slept right in a little while It was the postcards it was the phone call And I am sick of feeling drained in the middle of the day And I'm ashamed I let it get to me
5.
Better 03:21
I had dreams that everybody hated me and it wasn't very hard to believe So when you asked me to beg for it I whispered please I should have screamed And if I'm bitter it's just cause I'm better Don't sing my praises Your voice isn't so fucking sweet You can tell your master I've got my own goddamn plans I roll my eyes and if I go to hell that's fine And if I'm bitter it's just cause I'm better I'm a cliche and I'm OK

You made out with the uber driver I'm not mad about it, I just wanted that five star rating and it don't mean anything it's nothing I wanna be the guy who names the greyhound buses I'd name them things like sweet little darling that's a good name, but there are better ones come on over to it and I'm a good bus, but there are better ones just forget about it, the summer of blood
