When she came back she never really came back
When she came back no she never really came back

When she came back no she never really came back

Everything I knew snapped
Punctuates the line of black hats
Punctuates when
She comes back no she never really came back
When she comes back no she’ll never really came back
When she comes back no she’ll never really came back
Never really come back
Never really come back

Back
They trap me in that Costco
Trap me in the Bj’s
Trap me in that Costco
Trap me in the Bj’s
I refuse to listen to any words he says
I refuse to listen
I refuse to listen
She makes the deal
That's two for one
If I could get it
Why not get some
She makes the deal
Beef jerky's cheap
I want it now
Those queen sheets
I make the deal
I make the deals
I make the deals
I make the deals
I make the deals

I break the deals

After pain thats been relentless
Drill my teeth like butcher dentists

No-one has the heart to end it
Government will still defend it

Abandon what you want
As soon as it comes
Everything was perfect with the world in your palms
I can see your face and it looks like a paint try
You don't even walk body moves like a Segway
It was all in the plan
As soon as he landed
I’m a man in a can
Next to the tuna and salmon
Don’t know how much more I can take
You see the world only for your stake
Cry for you all with a lactic face
Fills the plastic case
Not a thing you want me to be
All those small things fall out of view
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
All those small things fall out of view
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
You give an effigy a chance to take a breath
And pulls a glowing lamp from inside his own neck
You dissolve a crutch a brace and I don't need help
You remove my ribs and face grant me a clear health
With a six foot tongue
He screws in a light
Hard to tell if he sees me
With his eyes all white
Don’t know how much more I can take
You see the world only for your stake
Cry for you all with a lactic face
Fills the plastic case
Not a thing you want me to be

I said oh my gosh
I cant believe my luck
I said oh my god
I cant believe my luck
I was a raised a golf club
When the lightning struck
I said oh my god
I cant believe my luck
I was a raised a golf club
When the lightning struck
Even the road runner still shops at the mall
Wearing shirts in extra small
And pants in extra tall
And whats the point of even running at all when his necks so long
And his legs so strong
Tongue stretching out like a sounding gong
You only see
What you see fit
Your crooked smile
So full of it
You love the earth
A playground set
You paper doll
I’ll soon forget
I said oh my gosh
I cant believe my luck
I was a raised a golf club
When the lightning struck
I said oh my god
I cant believe my luck
I was a raised a golf club
When the lightning struck

I’ve exhausted everything
Try to think of what you bring
You look like an ATM
You look like that light I dim
If I leave this earth with something
I’ll make sure I leave you nothing
Leave you nothing
Leave you nothing
If
I
Leave
This
Earth
With
Something
I’ll
Make
Sure
I
Leave
You
Nothing
If

You do believe
What you see fit
Your crooked smile
So full of it
You love the earth

You paper doll
I’ll soon forget
I’ve exhausted everything
Try to think of what you bring
You look like an ATM
You look like that light I dim
If I leave this earth with something
I’ll make sure I leave you nothing
Leave you nothing
Leave you nothing

I’m at Walmart taking the soles out of my shoes
Like the bald head glistening
I know they've been listening
Wanting me to slip up
What I gotta loose
Teeth feel like a radio shack
Teeth feel like a tv
30 Channels cable news
30 Channels cable news
TVs numb response
Fear deepens to a crystal pond
And still I turn it off and on off and on
Off and on and off and on
Circling over and over again
Because no matter what now I throw my remote into the toaster oven
Through the remote to my aging husband
Put batteries in this
Put batteries in this
Because no matter what now I only get 30 channels cable news
30 Channels cable news
My life been looking like that monkeys paw
Wish that I could take back everything I know and saw
Wish that I could say that truth is something for us all
Nothing will be like it was
Nothing will be like it was
Nothing will be like it was
Nothing will be
Husbands got a monkeys paw
Daughters got a monkeys paw
I look at my monkeys paw
Pull it out the freezer let it thaw
Feed them to the dogs
Feed them to the sharks
I ripped it from the gods
And then I took them all apart
Every time the the sessions set in sessions hot
Whip you with the white flame that we beacon high I was thinking
The first time I landed on this planet
The surface hot
Inside
You know that you never forgot
Got everything to hide
Got through inside
I’m running with the tide
Want me to take you alive I build it
Build it up just to take it away
I done want you to sit
But I want you to spit
It’s all on my west end
Rewind the case rewind the case Feeling out of place
Sinister sets in try to escape
Get signed in the states
You could die in the states
Ionized your state gets us in a wasteland
Get tapped by the mainland
Friendships such a waste man
Can’t y’all taste enough
They got the secular
You’ve been brought to the church you love
This like what sex she loves
Yeah This my super coven
Run this up, do that
You don’t know me at all
Suck my dick through a crystal ball

It’s October ninth
And I’m working at the go-kart track
The blue man gets in the go kart
And he looks up at the north star
A double breasted suit
And some tight shorts
They're so tight
They cut off the circulation to his legs
He says
You look just like a Duane Reade
I see what you're made of
And I’ll take just what I need
He says
I'm gonna fill you up with wine stones
I’ve taken samples of your bones
A thousand miles a way from your home
Until your blood turns tangy lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Whole world looms like a lemon
Blue earth looms like a lemon
Even my step brother emits
Blood turns tangy like a lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue
Blood turns tangy lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Blood turns yellow like a lemon
Even my step brother emits
Blood turns tangy like a lemon
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
I just wanna know what he had to say
Because every single second seems so far away
I just wanna know what he had to say
Because every single second seems so far away
You want
Me to
Give it
Up
What I
Know is
Not enough
Sitting
Watching
My face
Change
I can
Feel my
Cells arrange
Until your blood turns tangy lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Whole world looms like a lemon
Blue earth looms like a lemon
Even my step brother emits
Blood turns tangy like a lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue
Blood turns tangy lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Blood turns yellow like a lemon
Even my step brother emits
Blood turns tangy like a lemon
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a
It’s October 10th I quit my job at the go kart track
In the parking lot
I say I’m never going back

Blanket soaked a sugar sweet
Nothing left to do
Bled too much perfume
Sent lifts up the room
There was no excuse
I guess we did all we could do
What we could do
We could do
I guess we did all we could do
All that we could do
All that we could do
Hard to see the point in anything
Go to Wendys just to get a mood ring
Sun is always hotter in the south
Go to sea world to kiss a dolphin on the mouth
I gave up hope of ever trying to get out
Something to be laughed at until the fear drowns
I gave up hope of ever trying to get out
Something to be laughed at until the fear drowns
I gave up hope of ever trying to get out
Something to be laughed at until the fear drowns
I gave up hope of ever trying to get out
Something to be laughed at until the fear drowns
The meat lady sees me
With a kiss on my cheek
With a bird on a beak
With an eye and a wink
The meat lady jumbo saw cuts in half the week
She says oh I love you
But you look like a freak
She's standing there
In a floral skirt
Hands like silk worms
They eat up the dirt
Oh I beg for forgiveness
For a second chance
She snaps her fingers
And explodes

Lip Critic New York, New York
In The Wawa (Convinced I Am God) out now.
Hex Dealer the album out 5/17.
If you like Lip Critic, you may also like:
supported by 7 fans who also own “Lip Critic II”
This one also took me a while to get into. It strikes me as less HC than Untitled and less poppy than Ultrapop (stupid I know). Let's call this the No Wave record. Its musical (and amusical) density is matching the persistent sound in my head right now.
