Them Crooked Vultures : Them Crooked Vultures
Lyrics
1. NO ONE LOVES ME & NEITHER DO I
Take a song from the first time you made me introduce them
She was looking, her mind just oblique
She called me baby, and was a mean lady with the song on the radio
So I told her I was rich, then she asked could I use a dirty bitch, of course
Then she said: “no one loves me, neither do I”
You get what you give,
And give goodbye and if I should vanish
Don't get caught off guard
Don't hold it against me
Unless it gets her
Well if sex is a weapon, then smash, boom, pow,
How do you like me now?
You can't always do it right, you can always do what’s left
So I told her I was trash, she wait until after and said: 'I already know I've got a beautiful place to put your face' and she was right
And I said, 'No one loves me, neither do I'
It makes perfect sense,
So I heard her ask 'why
I've got tomorrow because life doesn't wait
You can keep your soul
I don't wanna soul mate
Cutting her loose, I’m ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I’m ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I’m ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I’m ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose
I know how to burn with passion
Hope nothing back folds future ration
Give all you are, to not make haste
Save our every, single taste
You get cut
I know how to be controlled
Do what they said so, what your told
Quick to react, to break the box
Turn on queue, as your cell door locks
Behind you
I know how to be lost in lust
Not because you should, but because you must
It burns white hot, and so climbs the mile
This lightening strike isn't always cut
So use me up
Use me up
2. MIND ERASER, NO CHASER
Run along face lift
If it kills, I got news, it ain't a side effect
Call it a full rejecct or
A fuel injected, type corrected, teenage obstacle
All I wanna do is have my mind erased
I'm begging you, pleading you, stop coma teasing us all
Drug company, where's a pill for me?
I call it mind eraser, no chaser at all
On permanent leave of everything
Law biding dick riding, fun police, leave us alone
Dulling the edge of a razor blade
What does it mean when the knife & the hand are your own
Give me the reason why the mind's a terrible thing to waste
Understanding is cruel the monkey said as it launched to space
I know that I'm gonna be your dangerous side effect
Ignorance is bliss, until they take your bliss away
Robotic mom bought me
Die kit lobotomy
It's a tuck, taste, dance craze, movie of the week
You'll buy the doll, kick the ball
Then piss on the sheets
All I wanna do is have my mind erased
I'm begging you, pleading you, stop coma teasing us all
Drug company, where's a pill for me
It reads- mind eraser, no chaser- in bright lights
On permanent leave of everything
New age go step on a karma collision
Dulling the edge of a razor blade
What does it mean when the knife & the hand are your own?
Give me the reason why the mind's a terrible thing to waste
Understanding is cruel the monkey said as it launched to space
I know that I'm gonna be your dangerous side effect
Ignorance is bliss, until they take your bliss away
I know that I am, your dangerous side effect
I'm not sorry to say we just ran out of give a shit
3. NEW FANG
New fang
No thang
Had it made
To parade
Found a sucker
Now I want another
Stand up
Step aside
Open wide
Handing out and on
Until the feelings gone
Want to?
Yes, I do
Wanna learn
Taking turns getting carpet burns
Loose lips
Lipstick spit
Come or go
I think it's both I gotta know.
Sometimes you break a finger on the upper hand
I think you've got me confused with a better man
Sometimes you break a finger on the upper hand
I know you've got me confused
For a better man
No slack
Cadillac
Couldn't quit
Gums flap so
Here's your teeth back
Accept
What I left
Far behind in a time
When my mind was like a landmine
Tailgate
By the lake
Too much, too young
Every button gonna come undone
Tightrope
No joke
Nothing left
So you go baroque
Sometimes you break a finger on the upper hand
I think you've got me confused with a better man
Sometimes you break a finger on the upper hand
I know you've got me confused
New fang, passing over
No point waiting around for
New fang passing over
No more waiting around
New fang, New fang
They can't wait, no
New fang, new
4. DEAD END FRIENDS
I drive all alone, at night
I drive all alone
Don't know what I'm headed for
I follow the road, blind
Until the road is dead end
Night's in my veins, it's calling me
Racing along these arteries
And law, is just a myth
To herd us over the cliff
I follow the road at night
Just hoping to find
Which puzzle piece fell out of me
I know who you are
Open the door and climb in
Hold me real close, then do it again
I ache for the touch of my dead end friends
And oh, I gotta know
Is it dead
At the end of the road
I can tell
By that look in your eyes
We're the same
My dead end friends and I
We drive all alone at night
A never ending begin
Sweet as a curse just out of reach
Awakens the dead end part of me
No more wandering
Just me and my dead end friends again
Dead end friends
Dead end friends
Dead end friends
Dead
5. ELEPHANTS
Painted as monsters
Borracho, cansado
Do you know what the people say
Plucked from the garden
Of wicked beliefs
I offer a rose
And smile with harmless teeth
Then slick back my hair
You know the devil's in there
Alone in the garden
Like lumbering giants
In a shameful parade
We came to ruin all and
Make a rotten trade
So roll over
Scattered on the shore
Surely washed away
Feeling somewhat deserving
Of what will be someday.
No I can never stay melancholy
I've the memory of your face
No I can never stay melancholy for long
Until I move on
We're unwanted strangers
Exploited and dangerous
Unable to hide or even dream of it
Como estas
Parting the seas
Like lepers who stroll
Why you afraid sweety
I slick back my hair
You know the devil's in there
So keep one eye open baby
We're so easy to spot
Lepers riding atop
Pachyderms full of germs
Elephants broken and screaming
Scattered on the shore
Surely washed away
Feeling somewhat deserving
Of what will be someday
No I can never stay melancholy
I've the memory of your face
All alone in the garden
Of long lost hopeful plans
No I can never stay anything for long
6. SCUMBAG BLUES
Innocence has no resistance
Against a wicked counselor such as I
You won't make it out
Shall I lead you to my parlor
Poison offers disguised, in just your size
You won't make it out
You may think me altruistic
Feel my dark hypnosis closing in
You won't make it out
Then you grow cold
As a stare as if none
Could compare
But you don't know
How close to ensnare
When I control You will despair
Sycophancy, solipsistic
Spider plays the fool
To lure the fly
You won't make it out
Then you grow cold
As a stare as if none
Could compare
But you don't know
How close to ensnare
When I control You will despair
7. BANDOLIERS
Oh it's too late
I got hit by the closing door
And as I watch myself reflect
On the wrong side of my, you've changed
You turned the corner I'll never go
I admit I feel a bit deceived
You're expecting I'd follow
Bandoliers
To fight me, dear
Nobody caused the rift
We've just grown apart now
So,
Prepare, and take aim
Then fire
Prepare, and take aim
Then fire
If that's the way it has to be
I'm fooling myself
Fooling myself into believing you
All these fictionary tales
You're telling yourself
Selfish, like a child that's never heard of no
I watched him ever changing you,
Never find us
Bandoliers
To fight you, dear
Nobody caused the rift,
Can't become what I'm not
You've always my heart,
So if it must be broken
Prepare, and take aim,
Then fire
Prepare, and take aim
Then fire
Prepare, and take aim
Then fire
Prepare, and take aim
Then fire
Fire away
If you must, but I only came
Just to let you know: this is goodbye
Oh, Goodbye
Prepare, and take aim,
Then fire
Prepare, and take aim
Then fire
'Cause no one can make me die
No one can make me cry
8. REPTILES
I tried to make a break
What a fool
I should've known I never listen
I'm in a cage
An animal I'm in a cage
But the reptiles
They won't let me go
I think they want you to stray
Watch the monkey dance
Give them a taste
Look at him he's always smiling
Help me to escape
Your mouth agape
You foreign tourist
Woe is me, it will be a funeral
A circus, I'll rap on the cell door
Questions are a fire
That needs feeding to survive
So just you let those flames die down
Trained by consequence and the lash
It leaves me breathless
Their praise is a poison to us all
In the moonlight their scars flash like jewelry
Get too precious
Get locked up in a cage
Want to get, gotta risk any move
Misconstrued and you're screwed
Tongues flash and flick as if they're screaming
Oh they lie just like any lover
Oh do they, those kisses will burn
Under the lights
They snap a finger
You jump, you answer
Like a naive hooker with a big dumb smile
For the reptiles
I guess you'll never know
They won't let you go
Cause you're the soup du jour. that's for sure
Questions are a fire
That needs feeding to survive
So just you let those flames die down
See them reptiles crawl
Getting closer
Why won't someone come to drive them away
Don't rest too long
It's a mistake we can't take back
Take one lying down for a change
And oh it's like cleaning up after an orgy
When it's over
I wish someone would burn this place
To the ground
9. INTERLUDE WITH LUDES
I've always been behind you
So I think we should meet
I've sharpened my knives
So I'm gonna use them
Oh baby
Oh
I'm gonna smother you with my love
Forever and ever, also forever
Acid and poison and chemicals baby
Is what I mean to provide
I know together, we'll make the possible
Totally impossible
If you want me I'm yours
And even if you don't want me
I'm trained and licensed and armed to the teeth
I think you'll agree
It's so hard to apologize
So I'm just gonna skip it
Sleep deprivation will make you a million
Did you just hear something crazy
I got my fingers crossed you'll catch something baby
Cause I just threw myself at you
Everyone run and hide
I'm coming to find you
Is my face still bleeding
Then what is your problem
By the skin of my teeth
That's how I'm going to drive you
On the good ship Lolly-gag
LSD and a bloody pile of rags
I hate to be the bearer of bad news
But I am
10. WARZAW OR THE FIRST BREATH YOU TAKE AFTER YOU GIVE UP
Can't afford to lose my head.
Can't afford to lose my cool.
You'll blow them all in king dumb
Can't afford to lose my tease,
I just aim to please.
Feel like a no-tell motel painting,
Out of place or ignored.
It's all medals and trophy's, trophy's and medal
And all before the race has been run.
Oh,
Take off your mask,
Is
It too much to ask
Go on
Und give it a try
Or kiss
Your ass goodbye
Autobiographical anonymous.
A cotillion of friction on my jurisdiction.
It's a lovely disguise with the wandering eyes.
I get high,
Now you've got something to look up to.
Trouble's a mangy stray dog,
Play with it once, then it follows you home.
It's all "have nots,
Have nones,
Hey can I have some's?"
Until I've had enough
Yet I've had none.
Oh,
Take off your mask,
Lose
It into the trash
Go on
Und give it a try
Or kiss
Your ass goodbye
Suddenly it gets easy
The sun goes down
The long arm of important things
Disappears in her gown
You finally drop
The knife,
Forget you ever
It's such a good
Night,
Ain't forever
It feels so good to give up, give in
Her arms
I know it hurts
It hurts to be young
Metamorphosis is pain, I know
I said it hurts to be young
Gotta learn every goddamn thing
You gotta hack your way through,
And realize it's almost entirely lies
But then you'll begin to smile
Smile for me, real wide
Then you accept what you are
The transforming is done
You've become absorbed into, and you know
I think I know what to do
11. CALIGULOVE
In the temple I was an offering
Of the heartless there was an offering
I was humbled I was an offering & reborn into a god
Darling
A sensitive soul is just a tyrant who enslaves
All those around him to make certain he is hurt, always
I don't need a reason baby
Put your arms around me
Hold me real close, clap me irons
Come on, Caligulove me
Come on, Caligulove me
You can hear it as an offering
If you're a good girl as an offering
A righteous choir is singing as an offering
No, screaming, as they burn
Darling, there are no taboos in lust
My veins coarse blood that's so venomous
When heartless hears a heartbeat
He's jealous, so jealous
I don't need a reason baby
Put your arms around me
Hold me real close
Clap me in irons
Come on Caligulove me
I already gotcha baby
Put yourself upon me
I'm in lust
A slave to desire
When you Caligulove me.
Come on
Love me
Hold me real close
Love me
I need your Caligulove girl
Caligulove
12. GUNMAN
Gunman, bloodshot eyes
Gunman, grain of sand
Sisters, could not speak
Father, is a holy ghost
And there's lions in a cage
It don't matter, don't try to explain
You're just another dog to be trained, choke chained
You're gonna end up under tooth and nail
If you catch a tiger by the tail, don't fail
Brother, does not dream anymore
Sisters, could not sleep
Transformation incomplete
Mercy killing, those counting sheep
I'm a trigger, quick to fire, punctuate betwixt the eyes
And you're clever, it ain't gonna help you
Violence is just an incomplete thought
Coming to a complete stop, stop
You're so clever you'll tear us apart
Then masquerade it as art not smart.
If you can help anyone, help yourself
That's unless you hate yourself, then don't help
Angry ants are crawling
Makes you want to scream
Lions clawing
Building up steam
Flesh and bone have no persuasion
This is the path to my destination
Gunman, where you been
You're my hero, savior, psycho, slayer
Follow the leader yet lead them the same
Slugs punctuate the refrain, come again
It don't matter, don't try to explain
You're just a dog to be trained, choke chained
You gonna end up under tooth & nail
If you catch a tiger by the tail
Don't fail
I wanna go blind, wanna stare at the sun
De-evolution
13. SPINNING IN DAFFODITS
Once, out in the rain
I was able to strangle my shadow
Then unshackle the chains
What?
What will you do?
Is it safe to play god in the garden and king of the zoo holes
Well they need to be filled
Positions available,
Yet some are quite hard to get out of or get in
Spinning in the daffodils
Dizzy from a dozen twirls
Cold, alone and alive
You're afraid, But that's not what I asked,
Wanna go for a ride?
Sharpen your teeth my darlings
Sharpen your minds
Take a finger, if the hand feeds you shit, take one scalp at a time
Fail, as big as a whale
Like a canine that's chasing a bone
That's tied to his tail
I wish I was a beautiful balloon
I would rise up above of it all & fade out of view
Gracefully out of view
What have you turned me into
What have you gone
And done my love
Incinerated in the morning sun
I am so high
I just may never come down
Take a song from the first time you made me introduce them
She was looking, her mind just oblique
She called me baby, and was a mean lady with the song on the radio
So I told her I was rich, then she asked could I use a dirty bitch, of course
Then she said: “no one loves me, neither do I”
You get what you give,
And give goodbye and if I should vanish
Don't get caught off guard
Don't hold it against me
Unless it gets her
Well if sex is a weapon, then smash, boom, pow,
How do you like me now?
You can't always do it right, you can always do what’s left
So I told her I was trash, she wait until after and said: 'I already know I've got a beautiful place to put your face' and she was right
And I said, 'No one loves me, neither do I'
It makes perfect sense,
So I heard her ask 'why
I've got tomorrow because life doesn't wait
You can keep your soul
I don't wanna soul mate
Cutting her loose, I’m ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I’m ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I’m ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I’m ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose
I know how to burn with passion
Hope nothing back folds future ration
Give all you are, to not make haste
Save our every, single taste
You get cut
I know how to be controlled
Do what they said so, what your told
Quick to react, to break the box
Turn on queue, as your cell door locks
Behind you
I know how to be lost in lust
Not because you should, but because you must
It burns white hot, and so climbs the mile
This lightening strike isn't always cut
So use me up
Use me up
2. MIND ERASER, NO CHASER
Run along face lift
If it kills, I got news, it ain't a side effect
Call it a full rejecct or
A fuel injected, type corrected, teenage obstacle
All I wanna do is have my mind erased
I'm begging you, pleading you, stop coma teasing us all
Drug company, where's a pill for me?
I call it mind eraser, no chaser at all
On permanent leave of everything
Law biding dick riding, fun police, leave us alone
Dulling the edge of a razor blade
What does it mean when the knife & the hand are your own
Give me the reason why the mind's a terrible thing to waste
Understanding is cruel the monkey said as it launched to space
I know that I'm gonna be your dangerous side effect
Ignorance is bliss, until they take your bliss away
Robotic mom bought me
Die kit lobotomy
It's a tuck, taste, dance craze, movie of the week
You'll buy the doll, kick the ball
Then piss on the sheets
All I wanna do is have my mind erased
I'm begging you, pleading you, stop coma teasing us all
Drug company, where's a pill for me
It reads- mind eraser, no chaser- in bright lights
On permanent leave of everything
New age go step on a karma collision
Dulling the edge of a razor blade
What does it mean when the knife & the hand are your own?
Give me the reason why the mind's a terrible thing to waste
Understanding is cruel the monkey said as it launched to space
I know that I'm gonna be your dangerous side effect
Ignorance is bliss, until they take your bliss away
I know that I am, your dangerous side effect
I'm not sorry to say we just ran out of give a shit

You finally drop
The knife,
Forget you ever
It's such a good
Night,
Ain't forever
It feels so good to give up, give in
Her arms
I know it hurts
It hurts to be young
Metamorphosis is pain, I know
I said it hurts to be young
Gotta learn every goddamn thing
You gotta hack your way through,
And realize it's almost entirely lies
But then you'll begin to smile
Smile for me, real wide
Then you accept what you are
The transforming is done
You've become absorbed into, and you know
I think I know what to do
11. CALIGULOVE
In the temple I was an offering
Of the heartless there was an offering
I was humbled I was an offering & reborn into a god
Darling
A sensitive soul is just a tyrant who enslaves
All those around him to make certain he is hurt, always
I don't need a reason baby
Put your arms around me
Hold me real close, clap me irons
Come on, Caligulove me
Come on, Caligulove me
You can hear it as an offering
If you're a good girl as an offering
A righteous choir is singing as an offering
No, screaming, as they burn
Darling, there are no taboos in lust
My veins coarse blood that's so venomous
When heartless hears a heartbeat
He's jealous, so jealous
I don't need a reason baby
Put your arms around me
Hold me real close
Clap me in irons
Come on Caligulove me
I already gotcha baby
Put yourself upon me
I'm in lust
A slave to desire
When you Caligulove me.
Come on
Love me
Hold me real close
Love me
I need your Caligulove girl
Caligulove
12. GUNMAN
Gunman, bloodshot eyes
Gunman, grain of sand
Sisters, could not speak
Father, is a holy ghost
And there's lions in a cage
It don't matter, don't try to explain
You're just another dog to be trained, choke chained
You're gonna end up under tooth and nail
If you catch a tiger by the tail, don't fail
Brother, does not dream anymore
Sisters, could not sleep
Transformation incomplete
Mercy killing, those counting sheep
I'm a trigger, quick to fire, punctuate betwixt the eyes
And you're clever, it ain't gonna help you
Violence is just an incomplete thought
Coming to a complete stop, stop
You're so clever you'll tear us apart
Then masquerade it as art not smart.
If you can help anyone, help yourself
That's unless you hate yourself, then don't help
Angry ants are crawling
Makes you want to scream
Lions clawing
Building up steam
Flesh and bone have no persuasion
This is the path to my destination
Gunman, where you been
You're my hero, savior, psycho, slayer
Follow the leader yet lead them the same
Slugs punctuate the refrain, come again
It don't matter, don't try to explain
You're just a dog to be trained, choke chained
You gonna end up under tooth & nail
If you catch a tiger by the tail
Don't fail
I wanna go blind, wanna stare at the sun
De-evolution
13. SPINNING IN DAFFODITS
Once, out in the rain
I was able to strangle my shadow
Then unshackle the chains
What?
What will you do?
Is it safe to play god in the garden and king of the zoo holes
Well they need to be filled
Positions available,
Yet some are quite hard to get out of or get in
Spinning in the daffodils
Dizzy from a dozen twirls
Cold, alone and alive
You're afraid, But that's not what I asked,
Wanna go for a ride?
Sharpen your teeth my darlings
Sharpen your minds
Take a finger, if the hand feeds you shit, take one scalp at a time
Fail, as big as a whale
Like a canine that's chasing a bone
That's tied to his tail
I wish I was a beautiful balloon
I would rise up above of it all & fade out of view
Gracefully out of view
What have you turned me into
What have you gone
And done my love
Incinerated in the morning sun
I am so high
I just may never come down
