#Smuglife

Social Gathering, Microbrew selfies
Chew your steak with a side of contempt
We’ve got a savior, all hail to cellular
And fondue fiesta is GMO free
Real leather, upholstered seats
I need it all, to feel complete
Who’s better, in this world than me?
Have you seen, my Twitter following?
So into vanity, organic groceries
The ones you can’t afford when you’re poor
Liked it back in ’02, before it was cool
I’m so mature when I stand next to you
New Sweater, Christmas party
Nobody, wears it out like me
Everyone’s ready to be judged
Seems like they give a fuck too much
I don’t know who I should be
Can somebody please show me?
Not that I need your advice
I’m so above in my smug life
Real leather, upholstered seats
I need a lot, to make me feel complete
Who’s better, in this world than me?
Have you seen, my Twitter following?
Smug life, Looking down, Smug life, Mister Bullshit Crown
You know it
They’re insecure too
You know it

Attaboy
05:22

Attaboy, head in the sand, turn a blind eye, to all you can, and purchase your opinion at the news stand.
You’ll never be full, all that you do
Counterfeit courage, we see right through.
Attaboy, beer in hand, telling me, what I can, lost his wife with his attention span.
Holding back, panic attack, turn to juice, soul on a rack, every time it’s hard is when you stray.
Culture creates you, hate the unknown
No room for color, country of clones.
Attaboy, empty inside, prejudice, runs on pride, never taking blame for his mistakes
Money is God, work before play, forget about them every day, your fathers ancient words regurgitate.
You step over them on your way
Maybe, finally, you’ll see this day
All you have overlooked
From atop your pedestal
Hope that it sickens you, hope that it burns you still.
Every time it’s hard is when you stray, as you turn your head and look away. Every time it’s hard is when you stray. Do you hear one fucking word I say?
Attaboy, beer in hand, telling me, what I can, lost his wife with his attention span.
Holding back, panic attack, turn to juice, soul on a rack, every time it’s hard is when you stray.

Calm

I could never ever keep this from you. Although that’s precisely what I wanted to do. I guess it’s all just a part of my, over reactions. A spilled glass of wine, a chair that’s in two.
It’s not mending. This passion we’re spending. Come In from the ocean and save me, baby. I promise not to make guarantees.
Stranded at the edge of something new. I’m tired and nervous, while dancing on queue. I swear I’m not trying to, cause a commotion, but her type of loving hits like a shot gun.
It’s not mending. The passion we’re spending. Come in from the ocean and save me, baby. We can calm this tide into a stream.
It’s alright now. Calm down, Calm down. It’s all right now, calm down, down, down.
It’s not mending. The passion we’re spending. Come in from the ocean and save me, baby. We can calm this tide into a stream.

Empereur's New Groove

Die Slow or at full pace… Both ways... I’ll pay… Enter… My lungs
It’s all, Bad news, Alarm Rings… Hit snooze/ Give me/ Just five… I’m leaving late, I’m leaving late. I’m late again
Don’t care… Too bad… My Boss… Is So Mad… Telling… More lies
Wasteful, New shoes, When I’m Broke,
Sing blues/ Call home/ Thanks Mom
I think I’m Gonna, Gonna lose my mind
I know it, Running out of time
Get divorced now, take the loss… What’s the difference?
You once felt like an Emperor… Now it’s over.
There’ll be another, There’ll be another way.
I know it, Don’t throw yourself away.
Find Your Groove, Just find your Groove
