I’m gonna get you . . . off of your spot
I’m gonna show you . . . what is and what’s not
Take a bath in the sunlight
The rays will be washing you clean
Nothing left in the sunlight
I can’t see a thing but the beam
I’m gonna find you . . . light up the dark
I’m gonna touch you . . . with fire and spark
Take a bath in the sunlight
The rays will be washing you clean
Nothing left in the sunlight
I can’t see a thing but the beam
Take a bath in the sunlight
The rays will be washing you clean
Nothing left in the sunlight
I can’t see a thing but the beam
I’m gonna burn you . . . peel off the skin
I’m gonna free you . . . don’t you want to begin?
Take a bath in the sunlight
Take a bath in the sun
Take a bath in the sunlight
Take a bath in the sun

Elephant In The Room
04:26

Up all night
Sleep all day
Try to find
Find a way
Through the rolling fog of truthiness
Down is up
Up is down
Peg is square
Hole is round
In the turbid smog of truthiness
When the evidence is overrated
It’s there to be manipulated
Elephant
In the Room
Elephant
Day is night
Night is day
Black is white
White is gray
In the murky bog of truthiness
Beat you up
Knock you down
Kick your butt
Nick your crown
It’s a rocky slog to truthiness
When the evidence is overrated
What you took for new is antiquated
Elephant
In the Room
Elephant
When the evidence is overrated
The trivial is elevated

We pass the hat because it keeps our dreams alive
We need your money cuz it helps us to survive
If you don’t give at all, well, God gets quite annoyed
You’ll spend eternity cast into the void
We pass the hat because our time is getting near
We need your money to complete the fiscal year
We pay our salaries and bills with petty cash
And leave the rest of you forging through the trash
We got so big
We got so fat
We got so hard
What’s wrong with that?
Well, it all adds up
Yes, it all adds up
Yes, it all adds up
When the spirit calls
When the spirit calls
We take your money and we put it in the bank
In case our real estate investments ever tank
We lead the faithful and they do what they are told
So we can build our church with spires made of gold
We got so much
We got so rich
We leave you scraps
So why do you bitch?
Because it all adds up
Yes, it all adds up
Yes, it all adds up
When the spirit calls
When the spirit calls
When the spirit calls
You’ve got to have the balls
To buy shopping malls
And Niagara Falls
When the spirit calls
You’ve got to have it all
You’ve got to have it all
You’ve got to have it all

Arbitrage For Dummies
06:34
|
|||
Did you think that it would be so different?
Did you think that anything would change by now?
You should know
Human nature stays the same
Every time I look away
Someone’s got a price to pay
With everything in disarray
Apocalypse is under way
Did you think that it would be so beautiful?
Best of all, this is irrefutable
All the time we steal away
Someone’s got a bill to pay
We’re drowning in the cabernet
Arbitrage is under way
Every time I go astray
Something takes my breath away
The curtain closes on this cabaret
Armageddon is under way
The curtain closes on this cabaret

We’re not gonna leave you alone
Covered wagons circle your home
You don’t stand a chance
We’re too strong
And we have borne the brunt for too long
Away
Go away
Go
We’re not gonna leave you in peace
Until every cent you stole is released
Away
Go away
Away
Away
Go Away

Uncontrollable Urge
05:18
|
|||
I don’t know what to do
Got jello for a brain
Picking up the pieces
From the molten lava rain
Blew up half the world
Left the other half to die
Choking on the junk
Falling from the sky
Uncontrollable urge
Undeniable surge
Massive data purge
Uncontrollable
I’m stuck inside a cell
I built for myself
Pictures on the shelf
My family from hell
I can’t bear the sun
I don’t leave the house
Credit cards undone
With the clicking of a mouse
Uncontrollable urge
Undeniable surge
Massive data purge
Uncontrollable
No one even cares
No one ever sees
I just disappear
Invisible disease
Uncontrollable urge
Undeniable surge
Massive data purge
Uncontrollable
Uncontrollable urge
Uncontrollable
Uncontrollable
Uncontrollable

I’m crawling back to you
Home
I know where I belong
Home
We keep the fire warm
Home
My girls are waiting for me
Home
I can’t believe what I see in this world
I can’t suspend disbelief in this world
We keep the madness out
Home
You’re always welcome here
Home
I can’t believe what I dream for this world
I hang my hat anywhere in this world
Home in my heart and my heart lies with you
Home in my heart and my heart lies with you
Home
Home
We’ll keep the fire warm
Home
We’ll keep the fire warm
Home
We’ll keep the fire warm

I Evade You
03:32
|
|||
I am the puzzle you can never resolve
The stain you cannot dissolve
I am the gold lost down the drain
The ghost riding on the wings of the plane
I am the time you can never get back
The qualities you will always lack
I am the word on the tip of the tongue
Forgotten photos of when you were young
I evade you
I evade you
I am the aura that blinds your eyes
Possibilities you could never realize
The glue pulling you to the earth
The devil child never given birth
I am the dream that you can’t recall
The glass eye that you took off the ball
I am the message that you never sent
A missing circus and an empty tent
I evade you
I evade you
I am the force you cannot resist
The revolution you cannot desist
I sell tickets to the end of days
And leave you hanging in an empty maze
I evade you
I evade you
I am the puzzle you could never resolve
I persuade you
The stain that you could never dissolve
I invade you
