Lyrics:
Everyone's Insane Except Me
I admit I used to get high, huffin' gasoline & turpentine
I used to count to ten but now I only make it to nine.
I got a funny feelin', deep down inside
In this fucked up world where everyone's losin' their mind.
Everyone's Insane except me.
Everyone's Insane except me.
Last night I ate a sheet of LSD & drink a gallon of whiskey.
Everyone's Insane except me.
There's not a cloud in the sky but they say there's a chance of rain.
Some girls think they want pleasure but they're really pleasured by the pain.
You think you're normal but the fact is everyone's Insane.
Three bags full motherfucker!!! One for the little boy who lives down the drain.
Everyone's Insane except me.
Everyone's Insane except me.
Last night I ate a sheet of LSD & drink a gallon of whiskey.
Everyone's Insane except me.
In the Mood
Let go of all you know & watch it run down the drain.
Be frightened but don't be afraid if you can't remember your name.
Come on let's go to my room, from there we can sail to the moon.
I tripped & went out of my mind, I'm finally in a good mood.
In the mood to eat some food & then smoke a little more weed
In the mood to get under the sheets with you & breed.
I'm in the mood to smoke some Mary Jane.
I'm in the mood to snort a little cocaine.
I'm in the mood to run away, we can hop on board a freight train.
I'm in the mood to dance naked in the rain.
Hold on, tell me you'll never let go of what-ever you hold dear.
Be foolish but don't be a fool, everyone's got something to fear.
Curiosity didn't kill the cat it just gave him a really good buzz.
Religion is just a four letter word, always has been & always was.
I'm in the mood to change my point of view & what I can see.
I'm in the mood to be blindsided by you & your incredible beauty.
I'm in the mood to smoke some Mary Jane.
I'm in the mood to snort a little cocaine.
I'm in the mood to run away, we can hop on board a freight train.
I'm in the mood to dance naked in the rain.
All the World's a Stage
There once was a man who made a plan his name was Stan but everybody called him Gary & he was a revolutionary.
He often quoted Bukowski & always spoke out vehemently against the nefarious M.I.C
We scored some weed from a guy downtown we all got high as fuck & laid down on the ground.
Gazing at the sky & the passing clouds, we listened to The Velvet Underground & Nico.
All the world's a stage.
Those of us in the know want to disengage.
Let you fire burn hot & rage.
We are merely actors & all the world's a stage.
We all got drunk with the lizard king, in a circle the natives dance & sing. While the rest of us dance at the end of strings.
The squeeky wheel gets the grease, we drove to town in a beat up Chevy Caprice & immediately got pulled over by the police.
The world is run by technocrat billionaires who don't give a hoot or a crap about you & me.
We the people are under attack!!! Now let's have some tea & gingersnaps. Then it's time to take a nap.
All the world's a stage.
Those of us in the know want to disengage.
Let you fire burn hot & rage.
We are merely actors & all the world's a stage.
Rosa Flora & Little Granny Two-Legs
I don't really understand what it means to live, can anyone give me a clue?
What does it mean to you?
Sometimes I look at the sky & wonder why, “Am I alive only to die?”
Just like a frog & a fly.
I don't have any answers but some folks do. They also believe that Neil & Buzz really walked on the moon.
And that the news only reports the truth.
So you watch their news, you do as you're told. You believed their lies when all ya had was the common cold.
I guess some people like being controlled.
De La Rocha said it best in ‘92 & it still rings true: Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me.
FUCK YOU, I WON'T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME!!!
