- 21 Months
i tried to act as if i cared. i tried to act as if i didn't want to get out. i wasn't careful what i asked for and i got it but i hung on for 21 months. 49 days sitting, standing, not sleeping and going crazy in a corner. 49 days, my balls turned to brass and i finally won out. i did 21 months. the 21 strangest months i've ever lived. i think about all the sick things that i said, and what i did, and what was done to me and through it all i grew strong. made my stand; learned to live. i still live what i learned in 21 months
- Baby Fat's Got A Girlfriend
I don't know how he ever pulled it off
Who'd have ever thought he'd find a girl?
Useless legs, a horrifying face
And quite that attitude
He's got the kind of personality
That makes me wanna scream and run away

Who's really in another world
While you're asleep the

Runs down your face like so many tears
Watch them piss away

She's a dingbat
Always walking in to trees
Wakes me up to ask if I'm asleep
Sits around stares in to space

Brainless questions constantly
I wish shut her mouth, give me a break
- Follow Your Leaders
By the people for the little people
Here’s how we like to start of the set:
“Dude, where’s my coke?” is followed by a weak joke
That segues into “vote democrat”
Oh, how upsetting!
It seems I’ve neglected to mention
That punk used to be so dangerous
- Frankengirl
Right now I want to count all the things that make you up
One part crazy jealousy and two parts puppy love
Add a dash of outta-left field rages and you’ll see
Frankly girl, that’s why I’ve got to leave
Hey kid, now I’ll admit, you’ve got a certain charm
Big brain, a pretty face and such je ne sais quoi
But as you well know, baby, I don’t parlez your Francais
- Gotta Girlfriend
i don't have a social life and she don't care.

or catch a movie at the lake and she don't care.

I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way

All of the bad feelings have dissapeared
There is a rainbow out i've been waiting for

I've got a little lisp, and I've been working on my limp wrist.

I wanna be, I wanna be a homosexual.
I wanna be, I wanna be a homosexual.
I wanna be, I wanna be a homosexual.

Sure, I use some twenty dollar words
But brother, I’m the salt of the Earth

- Supermarket Fantasy
I went through the automatic doors
My shopping cart ran in to hers
Our eyes met for a second, then she turned away
And after just a little while
I went in to the canned goods aisle
And there she was just standing there smiling
I was hoping she'd look at me
But she was checking out the lima beans
- Teenage Freakshow

Funny hair and acting bored

It's 12 o'clock on Friday Night

Lovely wigs reveal our hair

It's operation underwear,
And I can't help but stare

But you oughtta realize that every myth is a metaphor

while other religions use the literal core to build foundations with
See half the world sees the myth as fact

- What We Hate
The way things go
