Let’s get down with Satan! Satan, yeah! I wanna see you groove! Satan, yeah! From your horns down to your hooves! Satan, whoa! I’ll sell my soul to you if you dance for me in your blue suede shoes! Satan, whoa! My disco fever’s burnin’! Satan, whoa! On your pitchfork I am turnin’! Satan, yeah! I was a believer, now I’m dancin’ with the Great Deceiver! Row, row, row your boat down the river Styx ’Cause Satan, you invert my crucifix! Woo! Row, row, row your boat down the river Styx ’Cause Satan, you invert my crucifix! Satan, no! My heart may not be righteous Satan, no! And I haven’t found the light yet, but Satan, yeah! You do the Twist so well, that I think I’ll take my chances in Hell! So if you wanna break it down with Satan’s party mix Hit jukebox number 6-6-6! Well, let’s have some fun! Satan, man, I must be dreamin’, you are such a funky demon Out in the Sun! When my lungs are scarred and steamin’, you’ll be dancin’, I’ll be screamin’ My friend Satan! I don’t need no Eden’s Garden—Beelzebub, I beg your pardon Well, he’s the one! Will you let me dance with you? Oh Yeah! Satan, yeah! Come on and bust a move! Satan, yeah! I wanna see that groove! Satan, whoa! I was a believer, now I’m dancin’ with the Great Deceiver!

Ketchup 04:45
lyrics

Every seven setting suns Ground up soy and whole-wheat buns Spatula and two plates clean Patties on the foil—we’re all set to broil And if you’re still on the fence Why not add some condiments? Mustard, pickles, leafy greens But now the fridge door’s spread, and not one bottle’s red My God, you forgot the ketchup—you knew we need more Don’t try telling me this is my fault—you were just at the store Baby, I don’t wanna fight It’s too early in the night Why don’t I throw on some shoes? Keep our dinner heated—I’ll get what we’ve needed Then I saw the candy aisle Got distracted for a while Came home with some Charleston Chews Something in your eyes made me realize My God, I forgot the ketchup—the thing I went out for You must think my memory’s like that of a brachiosaur Baby, don’t be blue…maybe we can try Ragu Seven days go by in vain Still we eat our burgers plain With each shopping trip this week We forgot, in haste, our tomato paste But it’s not so bad a loss Getting used to barbecue sauce I’ve still got you when life looks bleak Plastic bottles? Please! You are my main squeeze We always forget the ketchup—you know that it’s true But one thing I’ll always remember is forgetting with you It don’t really make any difference what goes on my bun ’Cause while you may make burgers boring, you make life so much fun Oh yeah, you make life so much fun

Summer Rain 04:08
lyrics

I’m feeling so damn low…I couldn’t tell you why The days go by so slow…too hot and dry But when I feel those big black clouds come rolling over me I raise my chin and praise the sky I’d like to take a walk in this bright blue summer rain… I’d love to take a walk on a rainy summer day I know that deep inside there’s a light that shines my way My skies are fair in the open air of your clouded gray Oh, rain, rain, won’t you stay another day? And when the drops come splashing down onto the street I smile as I watch them crashing from Heaven to my feet As streaks of lightning flash white glimpses of the world to me My heart thunders with each and every beat I’d like to take a walk in this bright blue summer rain… I’d love to take a walk on a rainy summer day I know that deep inside there’s a light that shines my way I feel so warm in the eye of the storm, in a cloud of gray Oh, rain, rain, please oh please don’t go away In the middle of the storm is where it’s at Standing eye to eye where nothing matters, oh no In the middle of the swarm, the queen attacks Filling to the sky with holy waters…holy waters I wanna take a walk with you I would like to take a walk, a walk with you… I’d like to take a walk in this bright blue summer rain… Take a walk…rainy summer day Deep inside…a light that shines my way I wanna take a walk with you I don’t know why I feel so blue But I just know that if I go I’m gonna feel as good as new Take a walk with you

I'm Giving Up Church for Lent 03:11
lyrics

I’m giving up church for Lent I’m curbing my urge to repent Living as best I can as an un-pious man I’m giving up church for Lent Five whole Sundays straight Of sleeping in real late I’ve got to stay resolved and push on, un-absolved Five whole Sundays straight So long… So long… Without a single drop from the Blood of Christ Without a single verse from a hymnal song I’m giving up on prayer Every night, I swear Repressing all the while the need to reconcile I’m giving up on prayer For forty days and nights I must go without rites Sermon and Eucharist—these things will not exist For forty days and nights So long… So long… Without a single drop from the Blood of Christ Without a single verse from a hymnal song So if I have to choose I’ll give up priests and pews I’ll see no altars glow, I’ll hear no organs blow If I have to choose Because I’m giving up church for Lent I’m curbing my urge to repent Living as best I can as an un-pious man I’ve finished my search for I’ll stray from God’s perch for I’m giving up church for Lent

Non-Partisan 04:50
lyrics

You say freedom—I say equality I like the common good—you like responsibility I want free healthcare—you say it can’t exist You are the bigot—I’m the sissy Communist Why do we argue? Why can’t we get along? Why do we scream and shout when there is no clear right or wrong? Well, I’m sick of fighting, I’m tired of all the names We are all brothers, we’re all the same I’m gonna change this world, I’m gonna make things right Global warming will be stopped when I block out the sun with nuclear fucking bombs I’ve said, “Make love, not war,” you’ve said, “Bring on the fight” You thought Iraq was fun? Get ready for a hundred-thousand Vietnams There will be nothing left for us to fight about Because there simply will be nothing left You say, “Stop,” I say, “Fucker, don’t tempt me” You say it’s dirty business, I say, “Good, they’ll tax-exempt me” You say, “This is no joke—your behavior is beyond rebuke” I say, “Fuck you. I’ve got a nuke” Mankind’s dim candle is now flickering Gay pride rainbows can’t exist if I block out the sun with nuclear fucking bombs Our petty differences and bickering I’ll turn it all to ash—Behold as I unleash the storm before the calm There will be nothing left for us to fight about Because there simply will be nothing left …right …left …right …common ground In this world nothing’s right, so I’ll make sure nothing’s left I don’t wanna keep exploding at you In this world nothing’s right, so I’ll make sure nothing’s left Maybe I haven’t really thought this through This might blow up in my face, but I think if we Can’t share a warm embrace, why not try cold fusion? At the political epicenter, we’re all the same If God is on your side, then say your fucking prayers Pro-Life won’t mean anything—all infants will be stillborn as the radiation leaks I’m splitting atoms so we don’t keep splitting hairs I’m changing all the rules—I’ll level the playing field, so to speak There will be nothing left for us to fight about Because we’ll simply agree You don’t like Darwin? Well, I’m here to prove you right Life on Earth will not adapt when I block out the sun with nuclear fucking bombs There will be nothing left to not be right about Big businesses will donate nothing, my plan costs taxpayers nothing All because there will be nothing left

American 05:06
lyrics

Watch the TV to relax, make your body slip through cracks If you want to be a millionaire Well, wash your hands before you eat, regulate breath and heartbeat Filter unclean air Knowing you’re in control, lose your grip on heart and soul Don’t go out alone at night, brush teeth ’til you’re pearly white Make sure to reserve life in advance Well, have it your way, Mickey D—have the same Big Mac times three Don’t believe in chance Calculate how to live—clean syringe and a sedative You’re an American You’re an American And you rule the world—yes, you rule the world Kids believe in closet ghosts, parents in white picket posts Both believe in God because they’re told Well, earn an “A” for “affluence,” standardize your preference Buy before it’s sold Chase what you don’t have yet—site-seeing on the internet You’re an American You’re an American And you rule the world—yes, you rule the world Don’t eat fat or else you’re dead, three clicks to adjust your bed Learn how to predict just what you’ll get Well, lather, rinse, repeat your day, bandage death and pain away But you can’t predict regret Everything makes sense—rationale is your defense You’re an American You’re an American And you rule the world—yes, you rule the world, don’t you? You’re an American You’re an American And you play by the rules—yes, you play by the rules

My Creed 05:14
lyrics
buy track
Sitting on a train, listening as the rain Taps into my deepest wishing well Fantasies of futures past, dreams of joys that ever last— In un-freed waters dwell So I sit and watch the fields blur away from ticking wheels And I can hear no cries As the sun comes out and sings, robing clouds like gilded kings Of the skies This song is my prayer, and I’ll go anywhere to find you, my love This song is my creed, and it begins, “I need to find you, my love” I had made my first stop on the highest hilltop Stretching out among the trees Branches shaking hands with Mars as their leaves eclipsed the stars Romanced by summer’s breeze But I only stayed awhile—she made me jealous with her smile For nature feels no pain And I’ve learned I’m at rest only when in motion, soaking up life’s locomotion As glorious birds surround this train This song is my prayer, and I’ll go anywhere to find you, my love This song is my creed, and it begins, “I need to find you, my love” And I want to believe Yes, I want to believe But all I can do is need…is need So that’s my prayer and my creed So I crawl from place to place, longing just to see your face And be washed in your rain I may be on the wrong track, but there is no turning back When on this train of thought This song is my prayer, and I’ll go anywhere to find you, my love This song is my creed, and it begins, “I need to find you, my love” This song is my prayer, and I’ll go everywhere to find you, my love This song is my creed, and it begins, “I need to find you…to find you, my love”

Existential Pathology 05:54
lyrics
buy track
I remember Lego blocks, video games and Christmas socks And long walks on dead-still mid-summer nights G.I. Joes, Godzilla flicks, cosmic heavy-metal licks Now all contained in views of distant lights Well now my life is in full gear, but one day life will disappear I only hope these memories will count If I choose my own destiny, the question on my mind should be: To what does even the perfect life amount? I’ve been searching my mind, hoping to find room for my soul Therapists think I’m okay—“Son, go chase your dreams,” they say But all I want to be is more awake Twelve steps to achieve success, fulfillment, and happiness But what if more than my happiness is at stake? I’ve been searching my mind, hoping to find room for my soul I don’t keep me alive—I was born and I’ll die, so why take control? I’ve been searching my mind for room for my soul I’ve been hoping to find a place it can go If I can’t find it there, I’ll go out of my mind Hoping there’s something out there of the infinite kind Of the infinite kind… See they say everyone’s got their own thing, their own special song to sing Well all my special songs are on “repeat” And it’s not a lack of self-esteem, it’s not depression or bad dreams It’s an existential pathology I’ve been searching my mind, hoping to find room for my soul I don’t keep me alive—I was born and I’ll die, so why take control? I’ve been lost in my mind, desperate to find room for my soul Am I living a lie? Was I born just to die, or is there some eternal goal? Some eternal goal…
