Trapped (In An Egg) 03:20
lyrics
buy track
Taking time to tell laments And all I want is compliments Seeking shelter from a storm Somewhere light that's safe and warm Barely breathing, bruised and beat Shadows my only retreat Making meals of whines and moans All that I have ever shown And I'm trying to keep it cool And the ground under my feet I'm trapped inside an egg So I must admit defeat (trapped in an egg!) Quicken quicksand cover me What I am and what I'll be Or else treat me like a king Tell me I don't have to sing Give me throne and give me crown Or just leave me here to drown Let me drown or let me shine Come on in the water's fine And I'm trying to keep it cool And the ground under my feet I'm trapped inside an egg So I must admit defeat (trapped in an egg!)

The Problem 03:06
lyrics
buy track
Donkeys leading lions How did we end up here? Martyrs killed by liars Policies of fear Reacting too slowly Obfuscated facts Their friends had filled their pockets It's time to pay them back I could do it better We could do it better There are more of us Hey I've got an idea Plenty have died trying To cover their mistakes What lesson have we taught them? Except failing is okay We showed that we'd obey them That no price was too high That they could rule forever Over you, yours, me and mine I could do it better We could do it better There are more of us Hey I've got an idea We are not the problem You're the fucking problem Wait for my signal Viva revolution

Show Me The Honey 02:14
lyrics

I wait; tug myself off on my own I long to have sex again My Tory piggy bank Is trapped in the hexagon Show me the honey You showed me before It's golden and runny Purified or raw Give me the treasure I retch until I'm sore Show me, count out, measure Don't tease me anymore Show me the honey Golden and runny

Stay Home 04:51
lyrics
buy track
Wake up and start running And I'll try to think of something That will keep me out of trouble Til I get back under the covers But my eyes are too sleepy And my stomach is too greedy And my ego is too needy I don't think I'll go outside Stay home Open all the curtains Try to get some fucking sun in And then open up the windows Get up, water all the plants Try to keep everything alive if you can You can fucking do it, yes, you You can fucking do it If you just give it a try Stay Home Try to imagine All the things that you would do If you could get yourself together Eat a good breakfast Smile at your neighbours And let the world wash over you
