    Sold Out

lyrics

oh absurdity, this town
it manages somehow
to always shake a chill
out of me
its way too hot
for a man to
be oh so cold
oh absurdity

their selling words
and me, my friends
down the cold cold drain~
them dressed in the garbs of the occult
in a half ironic gesture to hell
with all the crowd they sang clear and loud
in ironic times its hard going
some living high some lowly dying

oh absurdity

the selfseenitallcounsellor advising
me to give it up and give it all i've got
its a free land man
its a free for all
dont think twice
its not in fashion anymore

where to go
the world hanging on
the thread bare words
of neon clowns
asks the homeless man
on the roads
he's making sense
but no one wants him to know

oh absurdity

it went knocking all over my brain
asking if I was just the same
i said i dont worry too much at all simple and plain

I don't care about the money
I wanna look and laugh just like the rest
I've got time, I've got my honey
I got crooked teeth and a head so scrawly

i found a letter in a plastic bottle
rolling in a clinkity clinkity
past taken for granted *
hand me down advertised realities

to whom it concerns
this is what I ahve to say
imnot your brother
im not your son
it dont matter who I am
im not anyone
oh absurdity
if youre going to read it listen to it or throw it away
then go on right ahead
it dont matter to me anyways

Everybody is waiting to pounce
on failure, it's just so easy
so here I am all 50 kilograms
giving them a run for their irony

oh absurdity
c'mon honey baby
put it in rhyme
and ill do my best
to say it in time
