This whole corner of the world is on fire I've been working on my zombie plan Everybody come on sing the virus Don't you know I'm looking for an exit strategy? She marched off with my heart in her purse I will probably get what I deserve I've got someplace else i mind anyway I don't require you to get it Or anyone else We can find the last free place This whole corner of the world is on fire I've been throwing cocktails right and left Everybody stop and look at me We've just found an exit - fucking run

Adderall 02:36
Looks like they've got me by the throat this time Thank God I've got you to keep me in line I don't care about the side effects at all Adderall I know I haven't been all that productive I know how often I could just say "fuck it" But I won't fail to make daddy so proud Well you may experience a lack of sleep A loss of appetite A lack of self But I don't really care because I'm feeling accomplished Doesn't really matter that none of it makes sense I've got no time for nonsense

Well I won't do whatever they tell me to; where's the fun? I'm a man of my principles and my guns And I don't take any shit from anyone I'm seventy-seven years old but the battle has just begun I'm an island in the middle of festering perfectland And I'll not be annexed, nor will I meet your demands I expect none of you cowards to understand Never did realize old Charlie's still got the upper hand It's a good day to fight It's a good day to die

Airport 04:32
I was running on fumes She's finally onto me She'll light up the room She's quite the anomaly And what can I do? Five months didn't prepare me for this The five o'clock news is asking me questions They've brought out the guns She's just shot me in the back And I'm on the run I'm sitting there fearful on the tarmac They've had all their fun Dear God, I've gotta get out They're speaking in tongues at the front door while I duck out the back But I'm thinking this airport might be my way out of here They're coming in hot Got me surrounded from all sides It's starting to rot And I thought they smelled bad on the outside Their sights are all locked I don't think I've been sleeping enough I think I've been caught But I'm not coming out with my hands up And I'm looking but there ain't a goddamn thing for me here So I'm thinking this airport might be my way out of here

Orchid Song 04:07
She won't go away quietly I'm watching her get away I will always feel this way when the seasons change I can't think about it too closely We can forget all our zombie plans Apparently time to be something approaching brave So I will come and level with you And you'll hear it but you won't really consider And I will walk away quietly She's got orchids in her hair But she belongs someplace else Probably the last we will speak of it So I will come and level with you And you'll hear it but you won't really consider And I will walk away quietly
