I'm not drunk enough for this
And I just can't stand you pricks
I don't have the whiskey I'd require
To get through five more minutes
I'll smoke dope until I choke
While I hide outside the bar
'Cause I don't even know
Who most of you assholes are
I'm not drunk enough for this
And I just can't stand you hicks
I don't have the whiskey I'd require
To get through all this shit
I'll smoke dope until I choke
As I hide outside the bar
'Cause I don't even know
Who most of you assholes are
So cheers, all you blind and vile reptiles
You drive me now to drink
Cheers, all you blind and vile reptiles
You bought me time to think
And I'm not drunk enough for this

Dirt Circus

Remember me for what I am
Sharpened teeth and scratchy hands
Remember also what I'm not
Kind of deed and kind in thought
Regard me as a filthy clown
Drifting homeless through your town
The circus shits me out and then
You come to scrape me up again
Pity me
Shitty me
Oh, pity me
Excuse the mess I leave behind
Confetti, streamers, bits of mind
Paint the walls of my circus tent
This sorrow schtick is time we'll spent
Regard me as a filthy clown
Drifting homeless through your town
The circus shits me out and then
You come to scrape me up again
Pity me
Shitty me
Oh, pity me

Half Blind, Full Time

Try to lean in
So I can breathe my teeth on you
Just like you think I want to
And I'm helpless to do
I'm an odd man out and about town
Set free to wander 'round and leer
Chuckle, mutter and fear
For a future that can't be divined
Half Blind, Full Time
Somebody touch me
Rub up against me
Say something nice
Don't make me ask twice
I come wanderin' in unwanted and unwarranted
So just ignore me, then
While I pass on through
I've been coping and smoking and joking my way
Through every single day
So it can't be me
It must be all of you
And the future can't be described
Half Blind, Full Time
Somebody touch me
Rub up against me
Say something nice
Don't make me ask twice
'Cause I'm just an old creepy scumbag

I've been livin' like a chainsaw
Runnin out of gas
I've been dyin' like a stray dog
Beneath the overpass
I've been beggin' for a favor
No one seems to grasp
All things unto me now
I only need to ask
Sometimes my brain won't do what it's told
The world is too much for my dumb brain to hold
Sometimes I'm on top and running the show
Or it all goes to shit because I never know
I've been screamin' at the people
Nearest to my heart
I've been punchin' holes in drywall
For the sake of art
I done hold the family ransom
Based on a dream
I know how it looks
And I know how it seems

I'll Be The Wolf

I had all of you sheep up on your feet
Dancing like the puppets you are
You all gave me drinks and joints to take home
You gave me the keys to your car
I had all of you eating from the palm of my hand
That old golden calf, the fat of the land
Now sleep while the bees make nests in your skulls
I'll be the wolf and devour you all
I got tired of speaking to lower brained fools
That's why I stopped speaking to many of you
So few of you human and fewer with heart
No sense of self and no sense of art
I see you content to just sleep and consume
Bedeviled by debt on your race to the tomb
Now sleep while the bees make nests in your skulls
I'll be the wolf and devour you all
