A Skullful Of Happy
01:58
|

Yes, we're marching into town
And our uniforms are shiny
We're gonna cave in
Every head that isn't smiling
Get a skullful of happy
A skullful of happy
Happy happy happy
Happy happy happy

The Cartoonist's Song
06:51
|
|||
The years that suffocate the
Attempts to illustrate
The pictures that resonate my bones
The tiny marks are scattered
Laboriously gathered
Into an integrated whole
It doesn’t mean a thing at all
A pellet tossed into the hole
And lo, on and on it goes
And lo, on and on it goes
Internal excavations
And spectral masturbations
Forbidden notions gathered home
These luminescent vapors
Converted into paper
A mound of printed matter, all
It doesn’t mean a thing at all
A pellet tossed into the hole
And lo, on and on it goes
And lo, on and on it goes

The Grey Cold Whispering
07:45
|
|||
In the grey cold whispering
Sings the age-old history
Shining bright and shimmering
Comforting the whimpering
Naked, cold and shivering
Vulnerable and snivelling
Infant hands still fumbling
Stands the mindless child-king
Still, he shouts his first command
Come to claim this common land
“This is now the Promised Land.
Reconstitute these barren clans”
We shall flourish and survive
Come, replenish our supplies
With our growing energies
We shall crush the enemy
In the grey cold whispering
And our aimless loitering
Empty smiles withering
A tiny mind starts flickering
Dusty lips are quivering
And sightless eyes start listening
A voiceless mouth is mumbling
The Giant Eye starts glowering
Amidst the endless bickering
Offended by the simpering
A knuckled fist starts tightening
And fragile skulls start splintering
We will rewrite history
Anesthetize the memory
Notify all entities
And nullify the entropy
And through the ceaseless struggling
And ouroboric plundering
The holocaust starts quickening
And yet the horde is lingering
It’s a complete catastrophe
Just ask the man-in-the-street
Maintain our feigned neutrality
And undisturbed tranquility
We hear the distant thundering
The echoes of the clamoring
And bloody hands are slaughtering
Still not disturbs our slumbering
We will keep our liberties
Safe between parenthesis
Close the blinds and back to sleep
Eulogize our deities

Another Holiday
04:20
|
|||
Now comes the dreaded season
They home in like a beacon
They loiter with no reason
And there's no sign they'll go away
They empty out my pantries
They shriek their loudest shanties
They suckle like sea lampreys
And they will never go away
And it appears they're here to stay
They linger on day after day
It's just another holiday
The cherished heirloom pieces
Are being smeared with feces
The dead-eyed stony faces
Betray no plans to go away
And all the family pictures
They're smashing with their hammers
The antiquated fixtures
Are swiftly being hauled away
And it appears they're here to stay
Crushing all signs to keep away
It's just another holiday
The smell of boiling urine
Engulfs the habitation
The sordid dissipations
Continue through the break of day
They cry "La dolce vita!"
And set the pets on fire
They form a tuneless choir
And chant they'll never go away
Yes, be resigned they're here to stay
They linger on day after day
It's just another holiday

I Teach Me A Brain

I teach me a brain
It sits in front the telly
I teach me a brain
And it keeps me comperny
I teach me a brain
I teach me a brain
I teach me a brain
I teach me a brain
I teach me a brain
And it learns so many things
I teach me a brain
And it makes me so happy
I teach me a brain
I teach me a brain
I teach me a brain
I teach me a brain
