The Toilet Show

Bone dry I am
Pale as pocelain
Chewed away revealing marrow made of gin
I am a sour note
That gets caught in your throat
When you cough me out then I'll begin to float through scenes behind
A growing bitter rind
On the fruits of my mind
And I am far beyond mending
So wave goodbye, its ending

Three
03:50
|

The telephone call
That said it all
It was a total surprise
I'm going to be nice
And I'll be throwing rice at your wedding
You and he and the baby make three
Three's always been a scary number to me
Because three is a family
And there isn't any room for me
Everything's changed
I've rearranged
The system inside my mind
I'm going to retreat
And I'll try to delete all my memories

Stage Fright
05:10
|
|||
How you present yourself
Affects a great deal
You should know
And it's a stress
Or so I'd guess
Because we never talk about it
It's easy to feel forced
To mask your problems and be strong
It's why we drink
Or so I think
Because we never talk about it
I'm acting confident
But I've never been so much in doubt
And when I find myself
I'll call you so you can come check it out
There's a new me
You'll be glad to see waiting in the wings
Who says all the same things
But backs them up with balls
The problem with that me
Is he has the worst stage fright of all
...But I'm acting confident

Animal
03:01

Whenever you speak
I read different words in your eyes
I'm taking a peek
At some things you don't even realize
You talk in your sleep
And that's when you laugh and say I am the one you despise
Then you arise
And tell me those white lies
That you don't long for
A bygone paramour
You say he's just an animal
It's just a picture
He's not a fixture
But I bet he's an animal
It's killing my brain
I'm jealous with a touch of paranoid
I'm going insane
When it gets brought up you just get annoyed
I mention his name
If you don't miss him why's it a subject you avoid?
My mind is your toy
And I am your boy droid
You have shaped me
Into what I should be
You made man out of animal

In Formation
05:07
|
|||
I have never been one of those people
Who saw what they had and were flaunting it
But now that I realize I've something to offer
I'm stuck here with nobody wanting it
Maybe I'm just getting older, but it seems like my eyes used to shine with intensity
Now when I look in the mirror
I only see one big disastrous propensity
What's the use of all this information?
No excuses, just get in formation
Now I've discovered the love of my life
Is someone that I met a few years ago
I think we could have been happy but I waited
And now it's most likely I'll never know

Guilt Trip
04:11
|
|||
Don't give me a guilt trip
That would end our friendship
When I feel like a tyrant
I blow up like a hydrant
Don't tell me you told me
Please don't chide or scold me
I guarantee it's been done
You're surely not the first one
To make me feel awful for
Some things that never made me feel bad before
It does work
And that's what blows
It's gluing my shell closed

Paper Cup
07:02
|
|||
While I was in my cell debating
You exercised your need for hating
And now the irreverence you show is unreal
And in the crowd you saw me waving
It gave you the attention you were craving
And now the irreverence you show is unreal
Puking in a paper cup
Below the score
I didn't mean to throw up
But it's not a choice anymore

Pinocchio
05:51
|
|||
I'm asking you to stop this shit and save me
I'm sorry that I couldn't have acted more bravely
But I'm drowning in the desert
And I don't know how to walk
It's suicide for a stupid toy who's made of wood and chalk
I know that you can flap your wings and change me
But if you won't
Then pull my strings and play me
I don't want to be a monkey
And I don't want to be a man
But most of all I know I don't want whatever I am
I want to be a real boy
I know you're a decent person
And I don't mean to call you a bitch
But if you have a heart at all you'll grant me this one wish

Like A Loony Bird
04:11
|
|||
I'm going
But where I'm going I'm not telling
It's snowing
So let your bloodhounds do their smelling
You won't find me
You can look in any atlas
But you'll probably never guess
I'm under callous
I hate you
I really don't but it sounds funny
Could that be
Because you said it to me honey?
Maybe that's why I won't leave an address forward
And like a loony bird
Migrate northward
Our friendship
You say you're worried that it's waning
We both know
That's not the reason you're remaining
What a liar
You could be a bitchin' actress
But you'll probably never get up off your matress

Rest Easy
05:32
|
|||
When there's no one around
And there isn't any sound
I get a special feeling
Don't give up on me
I'm only sleeping on the job
'Cause there isn't any reason
For me not to rest easy
When I try to unwind
The bosses in my mind
Make me dig another
But I got my mind right
Please just don't beat me anymore
'Cause there isn't any reason
For me not to rest easy
I change the station but they always seem to find me
I need a vacation
And I've been patient
I've been patient
