Get me up, my job is on the line Touching ourselves is working overtime I’ll kiss your ass and your master cards. Look me in the eyes don’t read the cue card. Light up the TV and we gain control Viagra-Vets salute our Superbowl. We sing and dance, we’re alive and well So clap along before we burn in hell Have you ever been a living God? Run your hands across your cheap facade Read my lips got you tongue tied. I’ll take your ego for a wild ride. Wind me up like a plastic toy Riding your whip just like a cowboy Bullet holes in my lingerie My finance’s in the NRA All you can eat negligee buffet Seduce the maitre d with my faux français Sext your prayers to the satellite, Whatever helps you people sleep at night. Everything gonna be right. A perfect world happens overnight. Fake it ’til you make it happens everyday. Sex sells but your love pays. Long before I got my Christian name Dinosaurs loved and died in vain. Sea level rising, but we can’t complain. I’ll be your monkey, we can share the shame Burnin’ rubber just to fuel the flame. Jesus take the wheel, we’re in the fast lane As we toe the line, as a rule of thumb It not the way you go but the way you come the way you come the way you come the way you come the way you come

You won’t believe it I gotta dollar you can’t spend, baby I’m a peacock, prone to sweet talk buying cheap stock, now and then I don’t make much cents, but I always squeeze a penny When I’m naked I feel loss. You can love me, or you can hate me But in the end, I’m the boss. Yeah. Taste the money in the air tonight! Blood and tears mixed with honey, counting all our pleasure money. Makin’ money in our heads tonight! Blood and tears mixed with honey, counting all our pleasure money You don’t believe me, Got a little sugar I can’t lend, no, I may hedge my bets but you know I’m made of money When the moon comes then I spend Cuz I’m a werewolf, with a sweet tooth And a foolproof master plan. To let the bullshit talk, and the cash cow walk When I lie under oath on the stand Taste the money in the air tonight! Blood and tears mixed with honey, counting’ all our pleasure money. Makin’ money in our heads tonight! Blood and tears mixed with honey, counting’ all our pleasure money

One weird trick to make you lose your mind, sit down and open wide, you can’t get off this ride, it peels and then it dries, used up and tossed aside, there’s nowhere left to hide, you’re never gonna die. Give up. One weird trick to make you waste your time, to make life so sublime, it only costs a dime, your kiss will be a crime, please touch me like a mime, and let me taste your slime, you’re never past your prime. Give up. Is it alright? Is it alright? This is alright. This is alright. Is it alright? Is it alright? This is alright. This is alright. Try this one weird trick Try this one weird trick It’s this one weird trick It’s this one weird trick One weird trick to dry up all the rain, to help you ease the pain, to drive your man insane, it clears away the shame, sit down and clear your brain, Give up and say my name, Give up and take the blame, Give up. Is it alright? Is it alright? This is alright. This is alright. Is it alright? Is it alright? This is alright. This is alright. Try this one weird trick Try this one weird trick It’s this one weird trick It’s this one weird trick One weird trick One weird trick Om

Glass Whip 03:54
Looks like peace but it’s world war Truce flag I always fall for. Throwing stones in your glass house Living down town Sharp tongue but a soft touch Bit your lip but it’s too much Red drops on your white lies Crying oh oh Feeling lucky Aren’t we lucky? We never tried the sweet thing Cuz we’re sharp, yeah Oh I think it’s funny We never tried the sweet thing Break apart, yeah Whip it up Smash the pieces Whip it up Tell me how can you be this way? Will it be OK? Whip it up Smash the pieces Whip it up Tell me why do you feel this way? Can you even say? All’s well that ends well All’s well that ends well Feels like pain but it’s pure joy I’m your whipping boy Take the blame for your mistake Get a boo boo Bad love but you mean well Soft words are a hard sell Hold my hand with a death grip Sayin’ don’t go Feeling lucky Aren’t we lucky We never tried the sweet thing Cuz we’re sharp yeah Ohh I think it’s funny We never tried the sweet thing Break apart, yeah Whip it up Smash the pieces Whip it up Tell me how can you be this way? Will it be OK? Whip it up Smash the pieces Whip it up Tell me why do you feel this way? Can you even say? Can you even say? We never tried the sweet thing No.

Flamingo 04:49
Gucci, Prada, more dead designers Bodies flock to deals, like birds to water The pavement’s hot and it’s getting hotter I watch you strut like a manager’s daughter For you boy I’m working overtime, If you shoplift my heart I won’t report the crime. My love to you was a fresh kill That gets cold so cold so cold no more Ah Flamingo lost down on rodeo My flamingo A quiet party of industry clones Waiters hold the cocktails like an Allen Jones Culture vultures dig our cheap allure Dressed head to toe in Good-Will couture We pose for pictures in our risqué clothes We’re underdressed, we’re overexposed My love to you was a cheap thrill That I know I know I know no more Ah Flamingo lost down on rodeo My flamingo And people point and stare at the escapee Cuz to them it’s not beauty it’s a novelty Ah flamingo My flamingo My flamingo lives in the afterglow down on rodeo Fly away now to a new town Where will you go My flamingo
