I can't stop scrollin, my brain is swollen Up to my knees in stems of weed and empty cans of sex on the beach I miss the parties, the cola bacardis But I'm stuck in the house runnin 4 my lyfe On a treadmill to nowhere, no end in sight And I, I'm fighting with my mind Keeps goin round in circles, I can't take it and it keeps me up at night Spilling out all over the floor Fluidity is pooling up and flowing towards the crack under the door And I wanna let the demons out, but that feels like such a chore I'm rattling, shaking, trembling from the insides to the core It's getting hard 2 ignore What is a weekend, I'm stuck in the deep end Strugglin around just 2 grab a breath I just ran outta juice, I ain't got nothin left Everything's so boring, I started skipping mornings Just tryna find somethin 2 do But this shit fuckin sux, I need somethin new

Knocking down your fucking door You can't have all of this shit anymore We'll build some homes with all your stone Fix our teeth with all the gold from your throne We made pennies while making you all your pretty dimes Now all your shit is mine and it's way past fucking time You answered for all of your many crimes Bare shelves and broken glass A little present from the working class Neatly wrapped Clad in all black Oh yeah Now your empire falls before you Now it's time for us to loot What e'er we want what e'er we fancy Cause now it's all free We built your fortunes with our lives With our sweat and time Now the jig is up Now it belongs to us We have nothing Now I'm struggling To feel anything You have everything The City's burning now you're learning That we're not machines We're human beings

My mom's got toxoplasmosis and she don't know what 2 do Her head's got all fucked up from scoopin kitty poo She got toxoplasmosis, yeah it's kinda like the flu Kitty litter scoopin is dangerous, man who the fuck knew And yeah it can get a little rough when you're the mom to 7 cats U gotta have 7 litter boxes, one 4 every cat Yeah, one 4 every cat She got toxoplasmosis, the kitty litter disease My dad does all the scoops now Every day of the week, oh yeah Toxoplasmosis, the literal pet peeve You know livin the cat mom lyfe is way more deadly than it seems She had bouts of it now for 25 years It zaps all of her energy yeah, until it clears And once it got so bad that she lost vision in her eye Now it's antibiotics every 3 days for the rest of her lyfe

Lisa, 43, is addicted to grooming her cat at eating cat hair Lisa eats 3 quarter-sized hairballs every day That's more than 3200 since her addiction began The texture is just like cotton candy wool I can feel it inside me and in my soul It started about 15 years ago Now the craving never ends, she's never full And I can't help the feelin that it's a beneficial part of my lyfe I think it's actually good 4 me I'm not gonna stop, the doctor told me that right now I'm fine Why can't everyone let me be Consuming cat hair can cause an obstruction And can impede your bowels' proper function Don't worry bout it, I ain't got no bezoar And it's been 2 hours time 2 go and eat more It's fulfilling 4 the both of us, yeah it's a bonding thing And u know the best ones are right off the cat Yeah, it's a great way 2 just relaxxxxxxxxx

Astral Baby 02:58
Don't know where you were born But I found you by the flying saucer wreck out in the corn You took the form Of a heavy set black cat while getting zapped up in the storm You shapeshifting ray got destroyed in the crash You're stuck as a feline with no way to ever get back But don't you fear cuz I'll always be here And I'll always love you You're always making awful sounds When you read the "Earth Book Of Cats" You read it upside down Can hardly meow Doesn't matter You're still better Than and Earth cat around And maybe one day I can see your true self Did you have nine eyes? Little tentacles? Ears like an Elf? Don't be afraid About the CIA Cuz i'll hide you No Need to pretend girl I know that you're not of this world An angel from the stars You landed in my heart First contact Love at first sight You're the light of my life So astral baby, don't say maybe Stay with me You're welcome here in my home I hope you don't feel alone You're hiding a ship in you're room I hope you're not leaving soon The sun and the stars aligned At the perfect time Of all the planets to land on I'm glad it was mine I cried when I realized you Loved me too Cuz that ship in your bedroom Has room for two

Normal people freak me out, I don't get what that lyfe's about But I heard that it's highly rated To me it sounds just suppressing, I'd rather go on shapeshifting And tryin not 2 be always wasted I'm goin down, I'm goin down, scrapin my feet up on the ground Where is the sound, where is the sound, where is the music Man that guy was just like me, or how I wish that I could be But now he's gone, so what should I do I'm gonna sit here in a freeze, crying, sobbing, chain-smoking And fantasizing this is not true I'm goin down, I'm goin down, I'm sinking deep into the ground Where is the sound, can't hear the sound, can't face the music

Cat Envy 02:44
You both keep playin with that drumstick And though it's broke you just don't care You can make fun out of anything Even when there's nothin there I had to change all of my bedsheets I hadn't done that in awhile I can't take care of all of my needs I need to change my fuckin style And how I envy you You can make fun out of every single thing that you do You can take this lyfe that u didn't even choose And give it the best you can do We had to take down the xmas tree And Shaq was so sad, he just cried And then forgot 10 minutes later And then he moved on with his lyfe And when I come home on the worst nights I always know I've got you there This world can be so damn unfriendly I wish that I just didn't care Oh look you found another toy there Thought it was trash, but now it's gold Found happiness in something broken I think now I am just 2 old
