Police alarms
Running through my head
I'm better off packing it up
And going back to bed
My fake I.D.
Picture looks just like me
Get back inside
I get it all the time
And now I've gotten bugged
Now I've gotten bugged
Now I've gotten bugged
Now I've gotten bugged
I break my back
Trying to keep it in track
Get caught in the aftermath
And they'll have your head
The chemicals
Mixing in my sink
Are leaking gas
In the city streets
And now I've gotten bugged (Guess who's bugged now)
Now I've gotten bugged (Guess who's bugged now)
Now I've gotten bugged (Guess who's bugged now)
And now I've gotten bugged (Guess who's bugged now)

HELL IN A CELL

Can't you see I'm bleeding out
Stuck in my cell
Cause I left my keys at home
You know me well
Can't trust the government
They own my cell
These towers charge me up
You know me well
Its just digital
Nothing's physical
I feel typical
Phone line original
Its just digital
Nothing's physical
I feel typical
Phone line original
My brain is rotting fast
Stuck in my cell
These bars keep me insane
You know me well
The guards always complain
Stuck in my cell
Won't go to work today
You know me well
It's just digital
Nothings physical
I feel typical
Phone line original (Hell in a cell)
It's just digital
Nothings physical
I feel typical
Phone line original (Stuck in my cell)
It's just digital
Nothings physical
I feel typical
Phone line original (Hell in a cell)
It's just digital
Nothings physical
I feel typical
Phone line original (Stuck in my cell)

FUTURIST NUTRITION

I am the soul breeder
Stuck inside a mouth breather
Never felt like a bottom feeder
I always go a little deeper
Futurist Nutrition
Contaminate Ignition
I am the mind cracker
Mistaken for a knuckle-dragger
Everybody feels haggard
But I’ve always been a braggart
I am the sole leader
Waiting at the Gates of Peter
Everybody wants a teaser
Cause everybody wants to be her
Futurist Nutrition

City streets run rampant
Wanna ask me how I feel
I can't stand it
There's no voice in my brain
It's a feeling
I'm on the clock
Every hero needs a villain
Been waiting all my life
For a crisis
On my block
I don't even need a license
Sink or swim
It don't matter to me
Just another freak in a mask
A fucked up future, open pass
City streets run rampant
Wanna ask me how I feel
I can't stand it
M.T.V.
I know how to make a killing
I'm on the clock
Every hero needs a villain
Hand cuffed
head lock
A super villain that
Can't be stopped
Sink or swim
This shit ain't nothin to me
Just another freak in a mask
A fucked up future, open pass
Just another freak in a mask
A fucked up future, open pass

Dry heat
Sand worms in my bones
I tread lightly
It's still rigged to explode
It gets hot sometimes
I get hot sometimes
Dead beat
Cant live on my own
I'm on sick street
And I can't find my way home
It gets hot sometimes
I get hot sometimes
Burnt meat
From the flames that I throw
It gets dicey
That's all you got to know
It gets hot sometimes
I get hot sometimes
It gets hot sometimes
I get hot sometimes
It gets hot sometimes
I get hot sometimes

WE'RE ALL BROKE

Everyone's on the floor
Asking for so much more
We're all broke
Let's party like it's 1965
I wasn't alive
I wasn't alive
I want to break
Break your face
And it's a date
Make me erase
I want to break
Break your face
Moshin' in the pit tonight
Break
Make me erase
I need a hit of my vape
Everyone's on the dance floor
Asking for so much more
We got that molly
We got that coke
We got the way that all they make them blokes
Just want to break
Break their face
It's a mistake
To want to be in
Second place
I want to break
Break your face
Moshin' in the pit tonight
Break
Break your face

Magnetic summons
Stuck to my skull
I don't know if I'ma feel alright
Tonight
What a great performance
I heard you got the role
But babe your voice doesn't sound alright
Tonight
If you catch a signal
Watch your back
Everybody knows
That all the phones are tapped
I'll call you later
If I got the time
I'll call you later
Pick up the line
Heard you're throwing a party
Sounds pretty cool
But babe I don't know if I can make it tonight
Alright
If you catch a signal
Watch your back
Everybody knows
That all the phones are tapped
I'll call you later
If I got the time
I'll call you later
Pick up the line
Pick up the line
Pick up the line
Pick up the line
I'll call you later

PEST
02:19
|

Caught in the mix
Of chemicals
Tearing through and wearing thin
But I still bleed through my thick skin
Feeling like a pest
I'm getting worked to death
I can't stick to the script
I stick to myself
How much to sell your soul
And turn into a drone
You'd think I'd have better hind sight
But I can't seem to get that right
Feeling like a pest
I get worked to death
I can't stick to the script
I stick to myself
Feeling like a pest
Getting worked to death
I can't stick to the script
I stick to myself

BUGS GO HOME

I was hanging with some snails
And I feel crazy, crazy, oh yeah
Cause I don't really fit in
I'm too lazy, lazier than them
Oh I was hanging with the fish
And it got scary, scary, oh yeah
Cause I don't know how to swim
Is that ordinary? Extraordinary? No
Never really fit in
To this animal kingdom
Never wanted to put on a show
So, bugs go home
I'm just a bug (If it's worth getting done)
I'm just a bug (Do it right)
I'm just a bug (I'm getting bugged)
I'm just a bug (Every night)
I'm just a bug (If it's worth getting done)
I'm just a bug (Do it right)
I'm just a bug (I'm getting bugged)
I'm just a bug (Every night)
I'm just a bug (If it's worth getting done)
I'm just a bug (Do it right)
I'm just a bug (I'm getting bugged)
I'm just a bug (Every night)
I'm just a bug (If it's worth getting done)
I'm just a bug (Do it right)
I'm just a bug (I'm getting bugged)
I'm just a bug (Every night)
Never really fit in
To this animal kingdom
Never wanted to put on a show
So, bugs go home
I'm just a bug (If it's worth getting done)
I'm just a bug (Do it right)
I'm just a bug (I'm getting bugged)
I'm just a bug (Every night)
I'm just a bug (If it's worth getting done)
I'm just a bug (Do it right)
I'm just a bug (I'm getting bugged)
I'm just a bug (Every night)
I'm just a bug (If it's worth getting done)
I'm just a bug (Do it right)
I'm just a bug (I'm getting bugged)
I'm just a bug (Every night)
I'm just a bug (If it's worth getting done)
I'm just a bug (Do it right)
I'm just a bug (I'm getting bugged)
I'm just a bug (Every night)

You gotta get back up
You gotta take your lines
Suits in Hollywood
Just want to waste your time
I'm gonna say it again
Would you be my friend
And you could have a good time
We can have a good time all night
You gotta get back up
You gotta take your lines
Suits in Hollywood
Just want to waste your time
I'm gonna say it again
Would you be my friend
And you could have a good time
We can have a good time all night
You gotta get back up
You gotta take your lines
Suits in Hollywood
Just want to waste your time
I'm gonna say it again
Would you be my friend
And you could have a good time
We can have a good time all night
You gotta get back up
You gotta take your lines
Suits in Hollywood
Just want to waste your time
I'm gonna say it again
Would you be my friend
And you could have a good time
We can have a good time all night
