All Day Breakfast

They were full of wisdom
Down at the strip mall
I think they saw you coming
They had it all on vinyl
They had the cassettes
We put it on when we got home
It was the best
Call me the king of nowhere
Call me the king
Call me the king of nowhere
Call me the king
We believe no-one can touch us
On the hood of the car
Stick with me and we'll go in circles
I believe in an all day breakfast
I believe in a free ride
I believe in customer service
I believe in family size
I believe in family size
Call me the king of nowhere
Call me the king
Call me the king of nowhere
Call me the king
The king of nowhere
The king of nowhere (the king of nowhere)
The king of nowhere (the king of nowhere)
The king of nowhere

Dead Inside
03:09

I've got it all, I won the prize
Living your dream, a perfect life
Impervious, you criticise
I'm vacuous, with empty eyes
There's one thing you don't realise
For what it's worth I'm dead inside
I've got no clue, I've got no plan
Effortlessly a better man
Make no attempt to understand
Why scum get dealt the winning hand
There's one thing you don't realise
For what it's worth I'm dead inside
There's one thing you don't realise
For what it's worth I'm dead inside
Dead inside
Everything is a lie
I'm really dead inside
Everything is a lie
I'm really dead inside
Everything is a lie
I'm really dead inside
Everything is a lie
I'm really dead inside
There's one thing you don't realise
For what it's worth I'm dead inside
There's one thing you don't realise
For what it's worth I'm dead inside
Dead inside

What Do You Mean?
02:34
|
|||
Here comes your cool again
Complicating everything
You know you look so good
Your head is somewhere else
Don't you explain yourself
Although I wish you would
You never looked so good
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
Walk on over to me
You're not what you seem to be
When you start to talk there's nothing there
(There was never too much there)
Everything designer fit
Even though you're full of shit
You'd mean it if you could
You never looked so good
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
Don't think that you mean anything at all
Don't mean a thing to me
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?

Middle Class
03:43
|
|||
When it's not as it seems and the heart of the scene
Is not in the hands of the ones with the dreams
When the cutting edge doesn't cut to the bone
The middle class is where it's at
When the ones who decide what is wrong and what's right
Have made up their minds that you'll lose every fight
When the purse strings tighten around your heart
The middle class is where it's at
They can't let go of their vague ideas
And they've been in force for all these years
Now they're so afraid that you'll have your say
And you'll take their precious world away
When the cutting edge doesn't cut to the bone
The middle class is where it's at
Changes never come from above or from below
And if they come at all they'll be timid and they'll be slow
They can't let go of their vague ideas
And they've been in force for all these years
Now they're so afraid that you'll have your say
And you'll take their precious world away
When your job and your house and your clothes and your car
Define how you feel and define who you are
You'll do all that you can to be just like the rest
Because the middle class is where it's at
The middle class is where it's at
The middle class is where it's at
The middle class is where it's at

Slow News Day
02:53
|

No bad news today
Everything ok
Just how you want it
All going your way
You won't believe it
Although you see it
Rather be manic
Here comes the panic
Look around for what's bringing you down
You find it inside yourself
Everyone can see
Obviously you'll never be happy
When are you going to learn?
Bad news is out there
Find it everywhere
Endlessly at you
Too much you don't care
What does it matter?
All of this chatter
Too many of them
It's not your problem
Look around for what's bringing you down
You make it about yourself
Everyone can see
Obviously you'll never be happy
When are you going to learn?
Look around for what's bringing you down
You make it about yourself
Everyone can see
Obviously you'll never be happy
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
Look around for what's bringing you down
You find it inside yourself
Everyone can see
Obviously you'll never be happy
When are you going to learn?
Look around for what's bringing you down
You make it about yourself
Everyone can see
Obviously you'll never be happy
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?
When are you going to learn?

You're a haircut
You're a haircut, not a personality
An opinion in a million
Full of noise not quality
I can hear you
I can hear you telling everyone you see
I would rather
I would rather if you kept away from me
Take that plank from out your eye and get away from me
There's no virtue
In that dirt you seem so keen to sling about
An agenda to offend
And fill the world with fear and doubt
You berate to educate
And think we listen if you shout
I'm not going to tolerate you
Or the shit you talk about
Take that plank from out your eye and get away from me
I know you think you're a prophet
Devil's advocate
Come off it
Everyone wants you to stop it
Always talking, never think
Take that plank from out your eye and get away from me

Waste
03:43

I appreciate the view
Into all you think and do
I am interested in you
I like your clothes, I like your face
I like your home it's a nice place
Not a moment goes to waste
You will never
Never be alone
We are watching you
Each and every day
Now you're never
Never on your own
There's no backstage
It's all on show and here to stay
I'm at your work, I watch you play
I'm with you on your holiday
You will never get away
Not a moment goes unseen
It's a distant intimacy
I'm living in your privacy
You will never
Never be alone
We are watching you
Each and every day
Now you're never
Never on your own
There's no backstage
It's all on show and here to stay
But you'll always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You're connected, you're in touch
Objectified if not quite loved
I can never get enough
I've got your memories to keep
And if you think you've gone too deep
Remember that you wanted this
Oh no, no, no
You will never
Never be alone
We are watching you
Each and every day
Now you're never
Never on your own
There's no backstage
It's all on show and here to stay
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone

Furrows
04:11
|

I don't know why I annoy you so much
It's a natural talent I guess
As we slip through the cracks heading out of L.A.
The landscape improves as we get over this mess
Oh
We're living out of time
Oh
You and me we're doing fine
I can't shake Chicago or that night from my mind
And I know I will never return
We pass over furrows like scars in the earth
I think on the lessons that we'll never learn
Oh
We're living out of time
Oh
You and me we're doing fine
All of the colour has been bleached by the sun
Solitude has come to an end
I'm so confused by directions and sound
Meet me in San Diego we'll start over again
Oh
We're living out of time
Oh
You and me we're doing fine
Whoa oh
