If you're listening, you've made a terrible mistake.
So you can't turn back now
So say goodbye to your friends and your pets
Yeah, there's no turning back now
If you're listening, you've made a terrible mistake.
So you can't turn back now
So if there's a lover and you love her or him,
Say your last wishes.

We only live such little time young and then the rest of our lifespan we're old
Because 10 years may seem like a small time but the decades will all fold
We're now living in the 21st century but we all want to go to the 20th instead
Because of us throwing back all the times we all thrive for and now we're rolling the graves of the dead
We're taking a second look at submission and we come down to premonition.
We're submitting to define capitulation, in these times it's a dream to take a vacation
And I am sick of all the posters and propoganda for the Republicans and Democrats
It's just all sickening and I don't really care for that
We will all graduate to higher stances and become what we fear (x4)

And they bring aboard the everything, they wash upon the shore
Can't they dance better? Is there another reason why, what for?
Do you ever notice how the world spins like in a dizzy state?
Just like our motives with our greedy effects and then we die like in our presumed fate.
It's all in our minds. We can't be beehives. (x4)
Did your mother ever tell you when you were growing up that you're in the wrong?
But in the end, your unfotunate mistakes pave the way even longer
Do you ever notice how the population always scrapes their knees on slate?
Just like our motives with our greedy effects and then we die like in our presumed fate.
Don't talk to me. (x4)
[sample of Timothy Leary]
It's all in our minds. We can't be beehives. (x4)

20th Century
03:12
|

I will never experience the 20th century
Even though I was there I don't remember anything
98 creation date yet born a year after
Then the millennium passed and it couldn't have been faster
To those who were born a hundred years after me
I have probably been long dead by now
Well I can tell you in the fifteen years that's happened so far
I'm very concerned for you.
I will never experience the 20th century
And I may have done so in a past life with no memory
I will never see expansion on technology
I'll never be a baby boomer and experience the 1960s
Including construction of skyscrapers
Cold War and World War II
But future listener I have to say something
Yeah, we'll all forget about you
(we'll all forget about you) (x4)
And everything will be forgotten just like Mayan life
And clocks will tick further, and church bells will ring all night
Culture will change again, and while I'm at the first bits of the third
I can tell you it's gonna be absurd.
From what I saw in the second
I hope that your choices are reckoned
I'm talking in a dead language
So you probably won't understand me anyways.
And just repeat history. (we'll all forget about you) (x∞)

I never learnt their name
And yet I will proclaim that
They never stood a chance to come to my wishes
And they left me maimed
Oh what a dame!
Oh, I fell in love with a demon
And I felt never the same
Igniting a flame
Of anger
And then they saved apathy for later
Apathie für später
And is how it goes
Just a dim broken flame
Oh what a dame.
I fell in love with a demon
And I felt never the same
And this only the start
Of the aftermath of what seemed like a tart
I fell in love with a demon
And it never felt the same.
Oh what a dame.

Corner

See me around, you're gonna find me in the corner
Find me in the corner
See me around, you're gonna catch me in the bathroom
Find me in the corner
I don't know why I'm such a pervert
See me around, you're gonna find me in the corner
Find me in the corner
See me around, you're gonna find me on the ceiling
Find me on the ceiling
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know what to do
I need help
Don't tell me I'm a pervert
Because I already know
See me around, you're gonna find me in the corner
Find me in the corner
See me around, you're gonna find me in the corner
Find me in the corner
I don't know why I
I know I need help
I need help

Play stupid game, win stupid prize
Don't ask or bother me on why you wonder why
Play stupid game, win stupid prize
Your fate is determined on the other side
Consequences (x4)
Play stupid game, win stupid prize
Fate is a judge, and you don't get to decide
Play stupid game, win stupid prize
You're in a hotbox, and you'll never even try.
Consequences (x8)

True Love
00:57
|

I will never find true love
Everything seems kinda crazy
I'm a little bit hazy
I will never find true love
It's always so, it's always so hard
I will never find true love
It's so hard. It's so hard.

What a small mountain town and I'm a visitor
Temporary time is ticking and there's stories to be told
Listening to conversations, watching A-list celebrity action movies
Looking at people and the places, I don't recognize any faces
CHORUS
Alienated in West Jefferson
Alienated in West Jefferson
Alienation in West Jefferson
Is only a compliment to this vacation instead of being with friends
Asking when the time will come
When this break away will be done
There is no reason
For self imprisonment
CHORUS (x2)
It's just alienation! (x4)

I'm jealous you're living in the future, I hope that your time is grand
I hope I’m giving you good company in this portal through time
But there’s one thing I’m not jealous about is the fact you were me
Emphasis on were - these times will pass, but not for me.
I'm jealous you're living in the future, you probably have hovercars
I'm jealous you're living in the future, and I’m glad I can see the stars
From all the pollution and smog and debris
These times have passed for you but not for me
I’m glad that I can wake up and walk out to my driveway
And pick up the newspaper and read about today
But of course that newspaper is one you can read today
But that’s old news to you, but it’ll never be to me
I’m glad that I’ll always be young, trapped in time in this recording
But the only way to get rid of me is to delete me now
So go ahead and get rid and me, I’ll be erased from existence
But you’re getting rid of your memories, so you’ll never hear me again.
I'm jealous you're living in the future, I hope that your time is grand
I hope I’m giving you good company in this portal through time
But there’s one thing I’m not jealous about is the fact you were me
Emphasis on were - these times will pass, but not for me.

This is Where I Leave
00:54
|
|||
Well this is where I leave
Goodbye to the listener
I hope I've made you happy
I hope you're doing fine now
Come listen again
Replay back all the waveforms
On my computer
Vinyl, cassette, or CD
Or iPod, Zune, Pogo
Or something I don't know
So if you want to play it again
Just put the needle at the side of the record
But if you don't want to do it
Then this is where I leave
