a collection of undone lyrics

1. Rat Race
under hot suns
they're like hot guns, they're like hot guns
and your crimes will show
they're benign though they'll grow so

don't be afraid
of the rat race
just keep your pace
in the rat race, in the rat race

in the ra-a-a-a-a-a-a-a
rat race
you're in the rat race

so come on down
bring your cold knives, bring your cold lives

2. Hand Rolled Cigarette
and your hand rolled cigarette
and i bet
it's laced with something fine
and i be
on your hand rolled cigarette

3. Pretty Lil' Bombs
your bombs, your bombs
your pretty lil' bombs a secret
you're never gonna keep it safe enough
so hope to god
that no one knows there bombs
pretty lil' bombs
yea hope to god
that no one pulls the pins on your pretty lil' bombs

4. Parking Garage
another night stuck in the parking garage
i'm lost and my head's feeling large
from 150 things on my mind
and i can't seem to find any out sign

5. The Simplest Thing
the simplest things endure
the simplest things ensure
that we are all against a change

the complex toys we horde
the complex lives we forge
say we are all against a change

so grab your picket signs
dress it up in words and funny rhymes
and tell yourself these simple things
can not endure
they won't ensure
and that's what complex things are for

to regulate the wine
to keep your bank book in line

6. Do or Die
you've never seen a man with a gun in his hand
and you don't know what to do
when he bares on the trigger with his hair pin trigger
and the bullets coming for you

it's do or die

7. Sleep High
lets take nyquil
and stay awake
we'll play with power tools
that we got from flea markets
we'll play with chem sets
that we got from yard sales

8. Loner
i'm making funny faces in the mirror
trying to cheer myself up now
i've got myself into a mess
and i don't know how

trying to convince myself i'm
some kind of strong

but i could be wrong
yea i could be wrong

i'm not suited to be on my own
it's just not me to be all alone
i don't fill that bill
i don't fit the crowd
