He says, "I can't complain. I'm just doin' what I love." My son stays out, while stars are above I won't be the one to let him become a man. He draws more blood than a nursing nun hand hold balloon, and his pocket a gun I won't be the one to let him pursue his plan. Well, all he was is growing out And all he is, is growing in my lawn. All he was is growing out And all he is, is growing in my lawn. If you weren't high you would have seen me Standing before you with eyes that fry. If you weren't high you would have believed me, It was a pleasure to watch you die. It was a pleasure to watch you die. It was a pleasure to watch you die. It was a pleasure to watch you die. There's something strange in slaying what you love She said, "...I'll pass on the pain.." and, "...there was nothing there to love..." That boy was the devil. And I just had to put him out. The needles left with the magnum She was glorius and clean. You'd be a stifled kind of woman If you had seen what I had seen That boy was the devil. And I just had to put him out. Well, all he was is growing out And all he is, is growing in my lawn. All he was is growing out And all he is, is growing in my lawn. If you weren't high you would have seen me Standing before you with eyes that fry. If you weren't high you would have believed me, It was a pleasure to watch you die. It was a pleasure to watch you die. It was a pleasure to watch you die. It was a pleasure to watch you die.

Right On Cue 04:39
I've seen your head shake And I've known misery Each and everyday, you've neglected me Everything's alright She says to me. Still I doubt myself, and I can't help but notice when.. Right on cue you flake out on me again What am I to do? What am I to believe when Right on cue I need to know now baby This shit is drivin' me crazy We used to walk in the park Flirting in the breeze Your smile is still so precious But rare... It saddens me Let me lift the fog Or make it rain I suffer goin nowhere And it drives me insane when Right on cue Tellin you the truth, don't play around with me Right on cue And I'm determined to leave These childish games to someone else Grow up a little myself Turn me away Or love me do Look at my face Put yourself in my shoes All I want is it all And that's what I'm askin for I'll be standing tall High up and relaxin when Right on cue You flake out on me again What am I to do What am I to believe when Right on cue So I say Enjoy the sun, or make it rain

River Queen 05:30
Our eyes could swing in harmony To the rolling water, Cajun bitter banter Down a river with a pair of Queens He knows he’s lost it, he slips in with an Ace I can’t believe what I’ve just been told Death’s mystery, I must behold Heart beating out of my chest Gun at my head, there’s no rest for the wicked. It's a shame that he had to know and what a shame he wouldn't let it go, with a Jab Jab Jab to his jugular, we sing the silent hymn Overboard with that criminal On this ship there’s no question who’s king Ace up his sleeve, and soon to be floating downstream Passed the cabin of Madam Veronique She lost her man, the antique of the century Little kip, we know he kept it clean He’d mop to the left, with a burgundy stain to the right Watchman Cook, they said he couldn’t sleep Well he must have been, as we threw him over the deck. It's a shame that he had to know and what a shame he wouldn't let it go, with a Jab Jab Jab to his jugular, we sing the silent hymn Overboard with that criminal It’s all so clear to me… The breathing The shaking The bleeding The quaking. Take a limb, boys, or you'll join him in the river.

There's a place where the water flows Fast as time flies In the Valley of the Falls Where the snow covered mountains rise In this valley's where I spend my time Faster than my money goes In the Valley of the Falls Where the cold water river flows As I sit below these peaks And let time drift away I wonder why my time was spent In places that I could not stay In this place where the water flows Fast as time flies I sit and think about The Island in the sky What awaits and what's to come No one knows for sure at all But I sit and contemplate In the Valley of the Falls

You gotta wanna feel you gotta get away The Captain Man he come, he say Stay, Stay, Stay. You gotta wanna feel you gotta soak in the sun steps 1, 2, and 3, skip 'em it's easy, just run. The bait is pain though the way ain't paved come on now use your brain. You gotta wanna feel you gotta get away. Just Run. Emancipate the Gun Proclaim your run. Just Run. Come on boy, do it some.

Treatment it wont last forever if only for a moment spent in loving light. Freedom their eyes are watching Hell so cautious not to tell you know they have the rite. It's the Chemistry of Wisdom the Symmetry of Souls as they rise the Monarchy I see them now, Gathered round, The Chemical Tribe. Pain skin slides from the bone they say it makes you whole they say you'll be alright Phantom you've the power of the sun so pass the smoking gun and we'll all rot tonight. It's the Chemistry of Wisdom the Symmetry of Souls as they rise the Monarchy I see them now, Gathered round, The Chemical Tribe.
