lyrics

Somebody’s trying to kill me.
Someone I never expected just confessed it.
He’s undeniably guilty,
And I’m gonna take him down.

How to understand how the man with whom I’d made a commitment,
Could have colluded with hitmen?

Anyway, as I was saying,
It was sad and dismaying.
But if he wanted betraying,
There’s enough to go around!

Man, he thought it’d be easy.
And I thought I was dead.
Then, before we knew it,
They all showed up and seized me,
But decided instead,
That they wouldn’t do it.

They said “take these receipts please,
And then call the police.”
They released me!

At least I know the score:
Poorly orchestrated;
Harsh, and untuneful;
Tuba and contrabassoon-ful.
Well, you paid for it,
Now it’s your funeral!
I know later or sooner you’ll lie in the bed that you made.
Trying to forget the decade.
While your debt is repaid.

One of the coolest bands from my hometown, this record is a quick ride through cerebral and dare I say, FUN noise/math rock. Do yourself a favor and give these guys your money, they deserve it. GodIsChad
