CANNON FODDER

Drunken, undiscovered
Hide underneath of the covers
While your sisters and your brothers
Are a-checkin' it out at the grocery store
Stupid, mistaken
Aware of the face that you're making
Smelling the burning of things you forgot
All engrossed in your aching
Craning, and then biting
Screen persona's not invited
Working on my coldness
Feigning blindness to advertising
Working, and then digging,
and then pacing, and then giving
and then singing, and forgetting
going in and feeling driven
and rewarding, or inviting
Not assuming that everyone's lying
Not thinking about yours or mine
or the longing, the desire
or the endgame, or the trees,
drawing a picture
It is of Me!
I see flesh, I see sinews,
the vein system branching within you
I see mountains, I drink water,
I decide who's just cannon fodder
I do the killing myself
I do the killing myself!

ALGIERS/VIRGINIA
01:52
|
|||
Sticky, honey-sweet
I taste it on my mouth
It tastes like the South
With its wetted groans
I find it on my hip
and I fire in the air
I fire everywhere
'cause I'm on my own
I'm stepping off the driveway
I'm slightly fatigued
Just coming home from school and the sun
Oh, the sun is not at its highest point

CARSON O'JENN
02:59
|
|||
You can't seem to generate the words that you need
Command the pointer, commanded by gears all unseen
Like the world understood before anyone thought of me
Catch wind of literature, the rules to the game
In Death's eye, spitting, on your journey to claim
Sovereignty and love
Sovereignty and
Y'know
-----
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
It doesn't matter what I'm saying
Sibby is the bastard king of Frequois de Parlaiting
Hanging microscopic from my gold chain links
Fighting through abstraction- CIA is in my thinks!
Listen, man, you don't want me to start screaming
I can assure you your consumption habits are much less interesting....than mine are (true)
Have you heard of MJ Lenderman? *spitting*
Yeah, it's kind of like-
You're like sugar on my lips, on my lips
You're like sugar on my lips, on my lips
You're like sugar
You're like sugar
You're like sugar
On my lips
On my lips :)

AMERICAN MOUTH
04:37
|

I'm always searching for something to put
in my American mouth
I'm only searching for something to put
in my American mouth
You came along
and I needed you now
to be
in my American mouth
--------------
Yellow mustard, Texas Pete
I see that fucker coming right at me
Dulci........
(Dulci!)
(Dulci!)
Samson beat
(Dulci)
Something, something
Jaws of defeat
Crowd bathing, basking, breath b-b-b-b-bated
Food desert, wasteland, small farms...inundated....
Yellow mustard, work telling head bastard
Fell for custody, short-shelling red passed him
Fell for custody, short-shelling red passed him
Dear Diary,
When I was growing up, I felt like I saw the same shit over, and over, and over, and over, and over again, but now that I'm older, every new room I'm in, every new tree I see, every new leaf, everything

FENDALL
02:49
|
|||
They don't like what I've got 'cause it's special!
My body and my heart lockstep with my mental
I'm the shit when I ride flat tires down Fendall
and they all want to hold me, but I don't have a handle!
They don't see how I see- I'm lucky
They don't live how I do- they're stuck in their heads
They don't suck up honey
They suck up sweat from their beds

GETTING SERIOUS
02:51
|
|||
Have you seen my friends?
Without them, I cannot be serious
There are some people around
who said they would burn this city down
Shovel dirt into shark-mouths, but don't disgrace the animal by comparison
Let me tell you what to do
Because I keep on waking up
Something's going right
(I am a) premium cut
Your dreams are scary, but that's just life
No one can see inside your head
So look at me good, and hear me instead
Thanks, always, very much for playing the game
We hope you're having a good time
Keep going, keep going!
Let me tell you what to do
Because I keep on waking up
Something's going right
(I am a) premium cut
Your dreams are scary, but that's just life
No one can see inside your head
So look at me good, and hear me instead
