Crooked 03:05
Well there was a crooked man Who walked a crooked mile He made a crooked fortune And wore a crooked smile He did some crooked cocaine And climbed a crooked slope He found a crooked rafter And hung a crooked rope Designer suit, top hat Aligator shoes Well I don't care about that Fine cigar, gold cuffs Rolling down the street in your Jaguar He lived in a house of lies And was empty on the inside He held a centurion card Turning heads from near to far There was a crooked man Who walked a crooked mile He made a crooked fortune And wore a crooked smile He did some crooked cocaine And climbed a crooked slope He found a crooked rafter And hung a crooked rope Trophy wife, big jugs Brand new jet ski Well I don't give a fuck Kobe strips, Dom Pérignon Everyone's invited to the party mansion I know your faking it And the essence dissolves In the serous volumes Numbing pleasant and smooth Through the fractured stratums Torn from the peasants by his demons To the hills of Beverly He heard them whispering He heard them taunting him He heard them shouting at him And they were waiting for him There was a crooked man Who walked a crooked mile He made a crooked fortune And wore a crooked smile He did some crooked cocaine And climbed a crooked slope Cos when he was a little boy He gave up all his hope He was a crooked man He was a crooked man He was a crooked man He was a crooked man He lived in a house of lies And was empty on the inside He held a centurion card Turning heads from near to far

E.K.W. 03:40
It's like acid in your mouth You want it so bad and the yearning never stops Drooling pungent crystals out The flashing radio lights say it's time to rock! You hide from your masters Blindfolded synchronistic slave Hard wired atomic bastard Now behold what the astral-creator made Electro-kraken wars Insert disk, load, agree Electro-kraken wars Forget control, alt and delete Perched on the edge of the abyss Peering out through the eyeholes in your mask Put on the one that always smiles Put on the one that always lies Radar beeps electro-kraken We all know he ain't gonna spear himself Your sub steers evades backwards Wrecked up on the liquid mercury shelf Electro-kraken wars Stripped by the suction hole Electro-kraken wars Hydro creature will dissolve Electro-kraken wars Complex algorithm weeps Electro-kraken wars Chains mimic democracy Prove to me you are not a bot Type in the code As we sit here on the perimeter Of love and death And the androids work all day Their faces cold In midst of a totalitarian age They mask the AWOL souls Stripped by the suction hole Hydro creature was no more The mask about to fall Insert disk, load, agree Got to reset delete No matter what you see The algorithm weeps Mimics democracy You gotta trick the past Ignore impending doom Or fear will manifest The androids face will bleed

Tidal Waves 03:16
A circus clown was laughing A ballerina was spinning I woke in a sweat sill lying in my bed “Returned” from a place where everyone was dead The teeth were falling from my face My body sank like it was lead Could not escape the tidal waves A black widow was creeping A white woman was crying Red viscosity was seeping from the walls The fan on the ceiling was spinning in slow motion The teeth were falling from my face Poseidon dragged me to the ocean floor Could not escape the tidal waves Bleeding from the tridents spike Paralysed by ocean spray Swept up by the tidal waves Bleeding from the tridents spike Paralysed by ocean spray Swept up by the tidal waves Suffocating figure crushed my chest I tried to scream but whispered "get the fuck off me" Was I on the other side? Or was it a dream within a dream within a dream within a dream The teeth were falling from my face My body sank like it was lead Could not escape the tidal waves Bleeding from the tridents spike Paralysed by ocean spray Swept up by the tidal waves Bleeding from the tridents spike Paralysed by ocean spray Swept up by the tidal waves

Now you’ve been warned Secret societies Seasoned PSYOP wizards The prism bends the beam Within the realm appears Now you’ve been warned Projection on the dome Deep from the catacombs Smart things will keep your soul Safe for the packman moon Surgery! The scalpel splits the skin Nano-bots! Invade capillaries C.P.U.! A neuro-motherboard Death support! It’s time to pull the cord Virtual reality
 Seeds a virus in our head Hooked up to death support Subliminal mind thieves Soul criminal software Hooked up to death support Teasing our neuro-stems Scrambling our brain signals Hooked up to death support Now you’ve been warned 
It’s been foretold
 The ones that wake up worst 
Are the ones that lead the cause Surgery! The scalpel splits the skin Nano-bots! Invade capillaries C.P.U.! A neuro-motherboard Death support! It’s time to pull the cord Now you’ve been warned 
It’s been foretold
 The ones that wake up worst
 Are the ones that lead the cause Now you’ve been warned 
It’s been foretold
 The ones that wake up worst
 Are the ones that lead the cause

Tra La La 03:32
Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf Tra la la la la la Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf Tra la la la la la Gently placed in the open earth Feathers stained with mud Heart stopped beating Wings were broken Pretty little dove Ingest your pseudo-happiness Throw your soul into a screen Douse your face in Maybelline Drink your shake it has protein Watch the monkeys on T.V. While the wolf sharpens his teeth Luring you with make-believe Forget your name and throw your Dreams away.. She worships him in hell She worships him in hell Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf Tra la la la la la Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf Tra la la la la la A precious soul she could not see Pretty little dove She flew away into the night Drunk with wanderlust Lose another pound or three Pucker up those duck-face lips Get some retail therapy Study hard for your degree Work so hard that you don’t live Find a dude and have some kids The wolfs always behind the scenes Forging lies and pulling strings She worships him in hell She worships him in hell

And those were strange days So much confusion Conceptual, tangible, illusion? Ran away from home didn’t pack a bag Had a randevú with a femme fatale Known to some as mammons mistress Would ya know my luck she came and kissed me Retroreflective renegade shape shifter Rouge romantic turbo charged realm drifter Cosmical faux serotonin generator International semipro escape artist I was the ruler of Lemuria While my world crumbled around me Got promoted to the King of Mu While all my gadgets were breaking With her charms she lured me even deeper And whispered in my ear a terrible secret “We came down from the hills when the floods dispersed Then the cracking of the whips ever since could be heard” Retroreflective renegade shape shifter Rouge romantic turbo charged realm drifter Cosmical faux serotonin generator International semipro escape artist I was the ruler of Lemuria While my world crumbled around me Got promoted to the King of Mu While all my gadgets were breaking I was the one that they put in charge Of the human second version simulator Sat on the future federation council The chief diplomat between succubus’s and angels And if my lenses broke Could you help me to fix them? And if i got tired of a concrete floor Would you lend me a sofa? Or even build me a time machine To evade the tractor beams I wanna go pat a dinosaur To try, try debunk my thoughts On a spinning ball through space as an accident Doesn't seem right but I'm gonna find out Til then I’ll wake on a concrete floor With a headache the size of a whale... I was the ruler of Lemuria While my world crumbled around me Got promoted to the King of Mu While all my gadgets were breaking I was the King of Mu But all my gadgets were breaking..

Smart Things 02:44
To serve you is our mission But theres just one condition Now tick that little box And give us all permission To hear all that your saying To find exact locations To know if you like Tom Hanks Or prefer Kevin Bacon The gods yelled from the sky Be fruitful and multiply Dystopia begins When we sew our eyelids to the smart things Hysteria seeps in When we trade our liberties for the smart things The smart things are connecting And always multiplying They come into your house And strip away your eyelids And in your darkest hour They know which pill your popping Then put it on the side The next time when your scrolling And Orwell gave the warning A race bent on ignoring We're trading liberties And falsifying all your needs So now it's time to decide What do you do with your eyes? Close them to the lies Or live Happily Ever Blind? Go forth and multiply Until the end of blind Dystopia begins When we sew our eyelids to the smart things Hysteria seeps in When we trade our liberties for the smart things Insidious they sing Lending our ears to the smart things Carnivorous machines Inceptive seed for the ending Wicked backlight shines until the end of blind Wicked backlight shines until the end of blind Wicked, oh it's so wicked What backlight shining bright Dystopia begins When we sew our eyelids to the smart things Hysteria seeps in When we trade our liberties for the smart things Insidious they sing Lending our ears to the smart things Carnivorous machines Inceptive seed for the ending

What did I dream? I do not know Yet strange my mind was tickled so Silver streaks in the sky Were consuming the blue So we sift our passion through And a dog ate a dog Leaving ideals behind Saved for the ones with sabbatical lives Banished to the realm of the anthropoids In deaths derelict department store Human version 2.0 The mortal simulation spawns a ravenous breed We're micro-parasites and we're squirming in a petri dish Flying around with their heads cut off Ain't none more damned than the hungry ghosts Ghosts Hungry Ghosts Ghosts Hungry Ghosts What did I dream? I do not know Yet strange my mind was tickled so Its over our head We see a rebel bound By the ones that throw the paper around Cannot help but laugh Cannot help but cry Fragments fly like shards into my eyes Banished to the realm of the anthropoids In deaths derelict department store Human version 2.0 The mortal simulation spawns a ravenous breed We're micro-parasites and we're squirming in a petri dish Flying around with their heads cut off Ain't none more damned than the hungry ghosts I look at the sky silver streaks are consuming the blue I look at the rivers stinking streams overflowing with shit I look in my coffee cup it's stained with the sweat of the slaves I look at my cutlery it's sporting rigour mortis flesh I look at the obsolescence thats built into our skin I look at the sprites running round with their heads cut off I look at an industry that sells plastic dream machines I look at a blade rotate stagnated haemoglobin rots Ain't none more damned than the Hungry Ghosts (Feed the Hungry Ghosts) Ghosts Hungry Ghosts Hungry Ghosts

Software running Constantly upgrading Would you like the latest installation? Purchasing powers Greetings from transmission towers Persuasions from the gas balloons The face of an android bleeds like yours The blood in their biotechnical hearts churns like the yours Software upgrading Conflicting information On a mission to the great unknown Searching for god In a haze of naughts and ones Trying to break through the stratosphere Software obsolete Black blood dripping at your feet Never breaking through the stratosphere Your life’s a crock Image faked in photoshop Not in the running for the man of the year The face of an android bleeds like yours The blood in their biotechnical hearts churns like the yours The face of an android bleeds like yours The blood in their biotechnical hearts churns like the yours Download complete Download complete

Down by the meadow in a little bitty pool Swam three little fishes and an alligator too Swim little fishes if you don't want to die Cos his big fat belly gonna swallow you alive Out of my sight, out of my sight, out of my sight, and it all looks right Out of my mind, out of my mind, out of my mind and it all feels fine Out of my mouth, out of my mouth, out of my mouth, the lies come out Out of my veins, out of my veins, out of my veins, the blood is black The blood is black I'm bleeding from the outside in Feeling like my bones are on fire Eat, Sleep, Die! Eat, Sleep, Die! Eat, Sleep, Die! I watch those monkeys dance I keep my nike's clean Afraid of ghouls and monsters I hide behind my disbelief Ingesting pseudo-happiness therapy Out of my sight, out of my sight, out of my sight, and it all looks right Out of my mind, out of my mind, out of my mind and it all feels fine Out of my mouth, out of my mouth, out of my mouth, the lies come out Out of my veins, out of my veins, out of my veins, the blood is black The blood is black I'm bleeding from the outside in Feeling like my bones are on fire Eat, Sleep, Die! Eat, Sleep, Die! Eat, Sleep, Die! I'm bleeding from the outside in I'm bleeding from the outside in I'm bleeding from the outside in I'm bleeding from the outside in Eat, Sleep, Die! Eat, Sleep, Die!

Step on a crack and you’ll fall and break your back And the cymbal monkeys clap And the symbol monkeys clap Step on a crack and you’ll fall and break your back And the cymbal monkeys clap And you’re never coming back A long time ago there was a contract for your soul Devised by archons and the gods of old They fashioned keys for the wind in cymbal monkeys Unknowing minions under the dome Under the dome They fashioned keys for the cymbal monkeys Don't care for superstition But when beneath the horizon stalls Flat lies an earthly prison Under the dome Step on a crack and you’ll fall and break your back Click thrice your heals and you'll all be home Sum of all crashes drown out the truth Reverberations under the dome Under the dome Sum of all crashes drown out truth Don't heed the revelations But when the gears begin to slow All sins are cos equations Oh it’s a bit of a shock When your sitting in the local coffee shop And you pull your head out of the news Instant clarity hits you like an epiphany All on account of seeking the truth And it’s a bit of a shock When you find your head on a chopping block All on account of speaking the truth The square wave cuts the sin Hell is a prison your living in Your soul is gonna be food For the packman moon
