Part 1 of 3 02:08
Middle America, Middle of the day A man with no options tries to find a way Sizeable mortgage and fair amount of debt But he still has hope, he hasn’t given up yet He grabs a butcher knife and a hand grenade Fantasy football fees have got to get paid He charges on down to the liquor store And tells everyone to get down on the floor “What the fuck are you gonna do now, bitch? Your whole life’s about to turn to shit What the fuck can anyone do about this My whole life has led up to this!” But the liquor store is a secret operation All a giant cover for a drug investigation SWAT team busts in, helicopters overhead DEA, CIA, top level Feds Building surrounded, megaphone blaring Camera crews there, whole city staring A thousand feet away, a sniper takes aim The sniper is a clone of the man, one in the same “What the fuck are you gonna do now, bitch? Your whole life’s about to turn to shit What the fuck can anyone do about this My whole life has led up to this!” Sniper waits for orders, situation is tense And it’s all being watched by a higher intelligence For years they’ve watched us mortals on earth Stolen our placenta and our afterbirth But now has come the time for it all to end Alien abduction is the latest trend Humans prepared for awkward alien sex Parts two and three tell what happens next

Hola amigos, que pasea? Como estan mis amigos? Yo soy el rey del mundo Y tengo una casa de queso Trabajo cada semana La luna esta mi hermanna Estoy enamarado de un fantasma Nunca hablo con los politicos Yo como muchas manzanas Las manzanas no comen yo Saltamos de muchas ventanas Quiero estar un bombero Trabajo cada semana La luna esta mi hermanna Estoy enamarado de un fantasma Nunca hablo con los politicos Yo vivo en New Mexico Hay muchas animales afurea Me gusta major el lobo El lobo tiene poder

Slime Tank 02:01
Up on the stage, lights all ablaze 
Everyone is waiting for history to be made
 The cameras are rolling, the show goes on live
 Some unlucky band just might, might take a dive! 

30 Feet! Down Below! Into a giant pool of slime, oh my god, did I mention the barracudas? And their instruments will probably also be ruined! Slime tank....

 The singer is singing, the drummer is drumming
 The ratings machine just keeps right on running
 This is for real, they could get a record deal 
But if the crowd votes no, then that's that's the way it goes

 Down Below! 30 feet, with no parachutes, no life preservers, (something, something, disgusting pool, something...) Slime Tank! 

Band after band from all across the land
 Doing their best to entertain the fans
 They're playing their hearts out, they're playing with soul 
Perfectly aware that the slime tank is full

 They all want the fame, they all want the glory
 They all want to go home with a good story
 But this crowd is tough, and their judgment is rough 
Fame don‘t last long, in fact, only half a song!

Albuquerque’s the best motherfuckin place to live Handjob hookers taking all that you can give Sometimes a little rain, but mostly only sun Sometimes a little pain, but mostly only fun We’ve got a fuckin tram! Two point seven miles! It’ll cost you 20 bucks! Panoramic view! We got that show Breaking Bad, it’s mostly about drugs Steve Stucker’s on the corner, he’s handing out free hugs Do you like hot air balloons? We got more than just a few Meth heads and good Samaritans in the AB-Fuckin-Q We’ve got a fuckin tram! Two point seven miles! It’ll cost you 20 bucks! Panoramic view!

Pocket full of stickers, backpack full of paint I be doin' all the things that most people caint Down in the tunnels, up on the rooftops Once you try it once, ya know you just can't stop When I go out the city is mine Me and my crew, we run the night Up and down, high and low You're gonna see my name everywhere you go I do it for fun, I do it to rebel I do it cause I'm fucking addicted to the smell We need revolution, we need more art And writing my name is just the start When I go out the city is mine Me and my crew, we run the night Up and down, high and low You're gonna see my name everywhere you go

Kick down the door, spit in their face Free every animal in the fucking place They call it research, it's torture to me Destroy the cages and set them all free Burn that whole muh'fucker down Burn that whole muh'fucker down Burn it to the fucking ground Burn that whole muh'fucker down Innocent creatures strapped down in rows Chemicals sprayed in their eyes, mouth, and nose Unable to move, fully restrained Nothing but suffering, a lifetime of pain Burn that whole muh'fucker down Burn that whole muh'fucker down Burn it to the fucking ground Burn that whole muh'fucker down They justify by saying they're told what to do Well guess what, the Nazis had researchers too Killing an animal to find out why it dies Exactly the opposite of being civilized Burn that whole muh'fucker down!

This motherfuckin life can be such a drag now Sometimes you just gotta go ahead and chill the fuck out Every day we got so many god damn motherfuckin rules But fuck it all, do what you wanna do If you ain’t livin, I guess you must be dyin If you ain’t havin’ fun, you’re not tryin So go ahead and live it up Make sure not to give a fuck -- Woo! It’s pretty fuckin easy to fall into the same routine Day after day, you really don’t do anything And after awhile, it all starts to look the same But if you’re feelin bored, you really have no one to blame If you ain’t livin, I guess you must be dyin If you ain’t havin’ fun, you’re not tryin So go ahead and live it up Make sure not to give a fuck -- Woo!
