Chemotherapy ------------------------------------------------------------ [Verse 1] Walk into my ward, stand beside my bed, I look at you, but you stare at your feet instead, I'm on the verge of collapse, I've got needles running through my veins, And i'm bleeding from my dick and my hair's falling out and it's driving me insane, Hey hey hey hey insane, [Chorus] Chemotherapy, chemotherapy, I'm having chemotherapy, chemotherapy, I'm having chemotherapy, chemotherapy, I'm having chemotherapy, chemotherapy. [Verse 2] I've lost control of the functions that i once had, The doctors tell me that it's really not that bad, I don't want to wake up with a warm patch in the bed, And you want to get up but you can't so you don't, So you go back to sleep instead.

Run away from this anger if you just can't stand the ground Look at what you've found Start to pray when you hear the speech Of what are you looking at Well I'm not looking at you Don't delay if you can't escape It's harder to rationalise when all you feel is hate I can't perceive why you demean yourself and all those around you your rudeness astounds me Yeah... gonna have some fun Yeah... with everyone Yeah... gonna have some fun Yeah... we're gonna have some fucking fun Touch the sky with your middle finger When it gets too hot distraction's all you've got We can deceive if it's only hope Deception is easy when you're dealing with dickheads 11.

Suburban Male ------------------------------------------------------------ Looking down the barrel of a gun Can't see what you have won Underline putting the emphasis on fun catch a glimpse out of the corner of my eye of all the traits I try to hide Don't beat yourself up about the future just drink yourself into another stupor We're middle class, white Suburban males Nothing that is said or is spoken Puts the truth in the open No regrets we don't lie about our sheltered lives I didn't realise that it mattered where you came from Take a look at yourself Looking down the barrel of a gun Can't see what you have won Why try to hide when you might just as well have been crucified Why be ashamed when there's nothing that can be done Take a look at yourself 14. Don't Speak ------------------------------------------------------------ Don't speak when you're spoken to If you can't say something nice just say what you like and if you can say what you like don't say shit If you want to speak your mind watch and you will find that no-one cares and if they care then they won't want to know I know your resistance is futile Don't be afraid to say whatever comes your way because if you don't you will regret it and you're pride will go If you want to wait in line don't walk across it If you want to, fine or if you don't you should never try I know your resistance is futile When you're never saying what's on your mind 15. Sick And Tired ------------------------------------------------------------ Do you think about what you do or what you say? Does it matter who gets fucked along the way? Is it worth the effort just to see them pay? If everybody does it doesn't make everything okay I'd like to wipe this, I'd like to wipe this from my mind I'd like to step away, I'd like to step away I am so sick and tired of this, tired of this Would you like to go away, away from here Where you don't have to address what you can't hear All that you do, you don't believe everything All that you do, you don't believe anything Would you like to go away, away from here Where you don't have to address what you can't hear All that you do, you don't believe everything If you weren't here we could believe anything 16.

No Thought ------------------------------------------------------------ I'm anger?? and it's in me Nothing you say will sooth me, oh no, oh no Is it me or are you colourless? Your ignorance embarrasses, oh yeah, oh yeah Now see all the things you discriminate against But it just seems as though there is no thought at all Tell all your friends of the freaks in the store that you laugh, we're bored You stare and you point, but the point is you're sight, it is tunneled, stupidity Well the bile in my throat is the sickening that you caused in my hope, in my hope I'm not a racist or a homophobe, but I think I'm a dumbaphobe It's as though you won't walk 18. 4 Litres ------------------------------------------------------------ Sup... Comes in a box It will fuck you up It speaks so softly to you tell you to have a sup It's moselle, chablis, rosé, reisling When you think it's gone Well you know it's not Just blow it up Because you know that it's all you've got It's cheaper than the box it comes in 4 Litres...

Did you understand what I just said? Interpretations of a sexist joke And I don't know what is real Only you can tell me how to feel And I don't know how to feel And I still question what is real 20. Cones ------------------------------------------------------------ I can hear a car alarm in the distance And I'm sitting in my attic all alone And this one wish keeps on creeping inside my pointless imagination Is that I could have another cone with you You said you'd see much more often But I'm staring at my carpet once again And I know I could break down the walls and prove our communication If I could have another cone with you yes, if I could have another cone with you Well I know that it's unreasonable to want to talk it through And I say that I don't understand but you tell me it's not true I know that if we had a smoke we'd start anew If I could have another cone with you Well what you say, what you say, wanting your own space and I know that it would be different if you'd just get off your face I know that if we had a smoke we'd start anew If I could have another cone with you Well I know that it's unreasonable to want to talk it through And I say that I don't understand but you tell me it's not true I know that if we had a smoke we'd start anew If I could have another cone with you... 21. Kaan Kaant ------------------------------------------------------------ I never liked the way you're pushing me around I couldn't stand it when you thought that you had found Someone you're bigger than, I know it's just a front You walk right up to me and whisper sweetly to me Kaan Kaant I'm gonna fight you You think authority can knock me to the ground I've come to realise it's not what you've found Someone you're bigger than, I know it's just a front You walk right up to me and whisper softly to me Kaan Kaant I'm gonna fight you 22.

Why Aren't You Dead? ------------------------------------------------------------ How can you be seeing clearly? How can you be seeing straight? Live with me and go your own way ??? Cause if you can't live without me, why aren't you dead? I never bought you clothes or earrings I never bought you drugs to taste That's OK cause friends all told me You only like me when you're off your face Don't come crawling back to me cause If you did I'll have to literally Sell your stuff, your bed, your clothes Even your sonic youth CDs And those stupid little boxes that you keep your jewellery in I'll send Jahovah's Witnesses around to your house and tell them that you wanted saving I'll tell them that you always wondered what it's like to be a christian Then I might come round and kill all your pets and leave them under the staircase You might wonder what the smell is but you would not find it for weeks So maybe it would be in your best interest to fuck right off and leave me alone Maybe you should move to another city, that would be better Cause if you think that we're good together You're fucking stupid cause we don't relate I'd never do anything to hurt you If I had a shotgun I wouldn't hesitate 25. unknown ------------------------------------------------------------ https://frenzalrhomb.net
