You swallow my lust and spit out my esteem And I have touched your lips and absorbed your misery Now watch me as I walk away, at a pace so staggering I’ve given you more than you deserve, I don't owe anything Pretend and dream all you want This reality might sting a bit This head of steam is counting up Counting all the fucks I do not give You coloured my life with so many shades of black And I've tidied these memories into burning stacks Now watch me walk away, at a pace so staggering Fool me, duel me, break me again, just do what you must Pretend and dream all you want This reality might sting a bit This head of steam is counting up Counting all the fucks I do not give

Dead Worm 04:02
Why do these things always happen to me? I was born, things went wrong, thus concludes my story Life's a beach; tide come in and you drown But I won't let that shit bring me down I'm a dead worm, I'm a dead worm Pit Pit, tell me why I'm a dead boss worm I’m at the point where I don't have the will to care. At least I've got my friends and a smile to wear. Life knocks me down but I always rise. I don't find comfort behind suits and ties. I'm a dead worm, I'm a dead worm Pit Pit, tell me why I'm a dead boss worm

Payroll Call 04:00
To not earn a dime is to step out of line Save yourself the trouble and commit yourself a crime To listen to the master will not save you from disaster Take yourself away from the grime and end your pantomime You can starve on the dole or you can live in a cage Or get the worst of both worlds scraping minimum wage Stuck as a sheep in this modern age You should stand up to your enemies, let them know your rage We won't answer the payroll call We'd rather sleep in the day We won't answer the payroll call We'd sooner starve and wait Not looking for a job doesn't mean that I'm not motivated Taking cues from bosses makes me feel like I've been automated Finding a job will send you mad A life of crime will turn you bad Choosing between a cage and dreams and you will know that you've been had Lack of job is seen as treason Seen as you have no reason Always seen as sleazin' But life on the dole be breezin' The government has you fearing And welfare deemed endearing And the workfare’s always nearing So rebellion keeps appearing We won't answer the payroll call We'd rather sleep in the day We won't answer the payroll call We'd sooner starve and wait We won’t! Answer! We won’t! Answer! We won’t! Answer! We won’t! Answer! We won't answer the payroll call We'd rather sleep in the day We won't answer the payroll call We'd sooner starve and wait

Spaceman 03:59
Read the guide to life and he threw it away (away) Turned his back on earth with nothing left to say (to say) 'cos we don't authorities or leaders from minorities The leader of his people will not believe their eyes when they see a (Spaceman) flying away down here on earth, you don't see this every day escaping the hypocrisy has always been my destiny Speed over time accelerating away, 'cos he's a (Spaceman) He’s flying away (Spaceman) Flying into, outer space (Spaceman) Finally gonna, fly away (he’s flying away) Stared into the void and he made the call Gonna make a paradise for us all No currency, religion or leader to name Take these lessons that i've learned in a world that doesn't change (spaceman) livin' it up Where people have no limits and their minds are never stuck Where when morals are broken, only culprits to blame My life plans set in stone and I'm here to stay (Spaceman) He’s flying away (Spaceman) Flying into, outer space (Spaceman) Finally gonna, fly away (he’s flying away)

No Means No 03:29
So she asked for it because she's had mastopexy? Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought consent was sexy Don't sit there and announce that 'people should respect me' When you say ' I forced it because he or she wouldn't let me' Fuck rape apologists with their victim blaming I have no time for cunts who are slut shaming Wearing short skirts don't mean you can oppress me Whoever you are, you need permission to undress me You're gonna get what you deserve We’re gonna make you fucking hurt Leave you bleeding on the floor Ensure that you will rape no more And I hope you get the point, and I'm sorry to disappoint ‘Cause no means fucking no The least you deserve is a rusted castration A sick procedure to match your twisted reputation Now I would prefer full body mutilation But death would be to much of a freeing liberation Rape survivors deserve emancipation From these wretched memories causing social limitation If you support Com Delta and ignore accusations Then you are scum your ignorance is blatant You're gonna get what you deserve We’re gonna make you fucking hurt Leave you bleeding on the floor Ensure that you will rape no more And I hope you get the point, and I'm sorry to disappoint ‘Cause no means fucking no You are going to get what you deserve ‘CAUSE NO MEANS FUCKING NO
