Capture the face Lock it in save the file First associations, gender enervation I'm tired but I'll throw you the smile Read a hundred books Read a hundred more Three hundred more you know you amass a pile but did you settle the score? (I just keep on dancin’, just keep on dancin’) That's right That's right I keep coming, I keep on coming Sit across from me Tell me what I am And you know what? You’re right for a second Grit your teeth, force the hand Yeah, I know I scare you cuz you can't box me up and call me your girl Can't tie me into bodies xerox zines and copies Formalize me into your world They wanna send me home (WANNA SEND ME HOME) Yeah they wanna send me home (WANNA SEND ME HOME) they wanna send me home (WANNA SEND ME HOME) But I won't go No I won't

Big green leather boots on the kitchen floor What are they there for? Holy matrimony never felt so right, no. I would like to be invited in I would like to be invited in. Waiting for the perfect time Holding out for silent signs I cut my face a crooked girl again When you ask me what I mean by that Can only say it depends Now wait a minute what does anybody have to say about it? Did I ask your opinion? Secure for a moment, a novice symbol; they're skimming every inch of it. Every inch of space Each line on my face Waiting for the perfect time Holding out for silent signs You hold my breath like I'm a little boy again When you ask me what I mean by that Watch my tongue bend

It's high time my time Having a good time? This week is so confusing are you having a good time? Christ, it's shit But I'll dance through it Yeah the blue hair waltzed on in Real big white grin To my chagrin you were lovely not toothless Thought I could change that Maybe rearrange that Punch you mangy and gouge out your eyes Bro, I know you didn't look at me I know you didn't glare But I don't care! I wanna scare you into respect Don't perfect me! Or context me Or reject me or heavy heavy pet me? Oh shit! What was that? A crash? Shattered glass on top of bro Tom’s new iron cast? What the fuck? Who the fuck? Thought they could do that when they saw my truck? Don't know if you saw my ink My arms by the kitchen sink But you won't blink before I crinkle your jaw Wait! I see that kid over there That kid with the blue hair Bet he’s got an answer to share Calm down, Kevin, it's fine This rude boy fuckface is mine Hold my wine I'm gonna shine his eyes kindly Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Hey friend How are you? Dyed blue? Stole my booze? Do you choose to be as weak as you look? Put the 40 oz down Your goddamn twee blue crown I oughta pound you for trespassing Tom’s ground! You see that window you broke? The property of my bro? It's a rental man, not your femme show! How about we take it outside? Man to man, pride to pride? You've gotta pay, I know you've got somethin to hide. Oh, you walkin away? Ballet moves? Sashay? You wanna say somethin or will this take all day? Oh, so you didn't break it? Think I'll believe if you fake it? You expect me to take stock in your lies? You're gonna make me cry My fists could make you die I see an alibi with my stepdad eyes Kevin, back me up! Oh sure go walk off that gut Thought we were friends guess it depends on the evening! Hey! He's getting away!! What about Tom’s window and place? What a disgrace ohAHHHHHHHHH Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Iiiiiiiii took my prozac! Aaaaand I took my fluoxetine! Hey man, I just want my window back! Let’s party it’s 2017! Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him) Kill him (kill him)
