Expiry Date 03:10
One part speculation A poorly executed plan On their part not on my part something tells me that I can Cut it tight Cut it tight Keep it out of sunlight This could be the last Never know when it stops Or when it's the last shot It could end so fast No nice way to say it and a rephrasing will not help No strategy to play now To conquer the hand you've been dealt Cut it tight Cut it tight Keep it out of sunlight Starting to go bad How do I thank you for ruining The best time that I ever had? Time ran out Time ran out Time ran out Expiry Expiry Date Dates expired Expiry Date Funny little pageboy Bowl haircut helmet shine Eventually changes Into something far less kind Cut it tight Cut it tight Keep it out of sunlight Starting to go bad How do I thank you for ruining The best time that I ever had? Expiry Expiry Date Dates expired Expiry Date Cut it tight Cut it tight Keep it out of sunlight This could be the last Never know when it stops Or when it's the last shot It could end so fast Expiry Expiry Date Dates expired Expiry Date

Two penguins found each other On a big chunk of ice There were introductions Things they felt very nice Such a happy chunk of ice It's in Canada But then her heels happened Wings they were a flapping So humiliating But she had a nice beaker beaker beaker beak. But he's not going to her tea party It's not important that she likes what I like What's important is that I don't hate what she likes Now all of the ducks see And they think he's lucky They think he's a lucky duck That penguin is a lucky lucky lucky duck Victim of a Life Ruiner Life Ruiner Part II It's not important that she likes what I like What's important is that I don't hate what she likes

Scenarios may vary And choices made are scary Particularly when that choice has led you here The perks are hard to deny Though brief past tense and gone by This conquest can not even live up to it's name Inevitably You will be put on the spot They bring up topics That you wish they would not They ask the questions And if you tell the truth The downside to that Is that they know the truth If I haven't figured it out by now Then I'm never gonna figure it out I took a chance And I blew it And I took pleasure in it And I'll do it again And again And again The times it seems the clearest at 6 am it's realest The faintest hope is deadly cold It's gone away With optimism fading Knowing that no one's waiting To see what you come up with next Interest is low Inevitably You will be put on the spot They bring up topics That you wish they would not The little things that You would rather forget For all the effort Look how little you get If I haven't figured it out by now Then I'm never gonna figure it out

Opening Act 05:24
I see you from the stage You're looking at me And I've got a job to do tonight I won't give up without a fight I hope I pull it off all right I don't pretend you're here to see me But lucky me I'm on the bill There was a little slot to fill There was a little time to kill Always a bridesmaid Never a bride Show me the coattails that I need to ride In order to have An audience to please I hope you like me I'm down on my knees Opening Act Opening Act Dead by 45 of a heart attack Opening Act Opening Act Suffer me tonight and I'll never be back Never did I ever have any desire to headline It's never ever ever been a dream Of mine A dream of mine But now I'm here I'm doing my best We've got 10 minutes to go Then it will be the end you know The last time You will see our show If you're a girl then I've noticed you I realise that you don't care Just nice to see you standing there Please excuse me if I stare We open for someone Who you know and love And now you're stuck with me Thank God from above I'll ask for your patience As I do my bit I haven't got what it takes to make it My aspirations they have all been met This is all I want I've got no regrets If it all ends now if tonight we're done Look at me now look how far I've come Opening Act Opening Act Dead by 45 of a heart attack Opening Act Opening Act Suffer me tonight and I'll never be back Opening Act Opening Act I try and try again but you never react Opening Act Opening Act Dead by 45 of a heart attack

A Sequel 01:15
It's a sequel Another pill Bells are ringing Girls are singing Songs that they know Songs they download Stuff they're into Not stuff I do Here's a future anthem for a future that exists Should things go certain ways But it's not likely It's nowhere near likely This offer extended This offer rejected At this rate those girls won't be singing No bells ringing No nothing

See what happens when you get what you want Nothing Nothing Nothing Nothing See what happens when you get what you want Nothing good at all Now your wish comes true Now what are you supposed to do Wish it never happened to you Wish it never happened to you She's here She's here Now she's away from me She's here She's here Life Ruiner part III The night she slept over Now it's really over

Accidental 02:25
It might look accidental Maybe yes maybe not All mistakes repeated And I get what I want Not as bad as it looks Is it? Is it? If only they knew Is it? Is it? Not gonna tell you I don't need excuses I know better than you Has not always been like this Do what I want to do Not as bad as it looks Is it? Is it? If only they knew Is it? Is it? Not gonna tell you

Death Bed 04:23
Why do they make it so hard? How do I do this? I can't tell He might have gone to heaven But he left me here in hell I was totally lost until he came to help me He would make numbers dance for a reasonable fee What will I do without him here to make it work He asked for so little I would pay anything He would ask a few questions and make numbers sing Taxes are too hard for me do not understand I need financial advice How will I get through this life His arms bore markings in ink faded blue We would sit and discuss matters of my revenue What will I do without him here to make it work Last time we spoke I called him and he said that he was not feeling well He was on his death bed Taxes are too hard for me do not understand My accountant died They hooked him up to machines It's been a problem ever since Not for him but for me He enjoyed himself to death Went out doing what he loved Now I can not file my taxes Now I can't get my refund I can't get my refund My refund

It's an infection But you can't catch it It can't be passed on But when you have it You'll wish you hadn't I've had it all along You can see what it does to me It's doing it right now I'm stuck with this Stuck doing this It's all I am allowed And though there's not one thing to gain I feel the need to entertain I'd rather not but I do not have a choice Never had a choice I don't have a choice Never had a choice I know that I make it look easy It's part of what I do But this life of monkeying around is what I must get through It would be so much more easy If I did not have to come Out here and make you laugh at me And what I have become And though nobody asked me to I'm going to show you what I do I'm sorry for this but I don't have a choice Never had a choice I don't have a choice I'm trapped in this life Not like I ever got rewards And I don't want them anymore Took me one thousand tries to see There's something wrong with me I am facing blackness
