Hot Bananas

It's summer time again
The sun is shining
On my banana tree
Don't you wanna be eating
Hot bananas
In a banana split
The peels are paper thin
Just dig your nails in
Eat 'em whole or eat 'em sliced
Don't you think it's kinda nice eating
Hot bananas
In a banana split
I love you forever
Of that you can be sure
And of one other thing
Hot weather's always gonna bring you
Hot bananas

Existential Despair
03:09
|
|||
I don't believe in humanity
And I don't believe in love
I don't buy into money
Or that there's a god above
And I don't believe in John Lennon either
And I don't even believe in myself
And I'm not sure I believe in reality
I think it might be bad for your health
Existential despair
I don't know how long I can bear
This existential despair
Now the president, well that's unfortunate
They elected him the other night
After he said he was gonna make America so great
For men who are straight and white
He's a narcissistic nazi-sympathizing fuck
And half of your friends can't tell
And I donated to a charity
But it didn't seem to help
My existential despair
I still woke up in a nightmare
Of existential despair
I was talking with my girlfriend
Late last night in our bathroom
I said "it feels like no one cares about my music
It's like I'm singing into a vacuum"
She said "so sing into a vacuum, man
If that's what you wanna do
Singing into a microphone might work better
But hey, I'm not gonna judge you
For your existential despair"
Is there anyone out there
For my existential despair
You know, they don't tell you children
How hard it's all gonna get
I've been an adult for many years now
But I don't feel like one yet
No, I am still a baby
And I'm crying all night long
'Cause I can't make sense out of life
I wonder if I'm doing it wrong
Existential despair
Life is relentlessly fair
With existential despair
It's in everybody everywhere
This existential despair
Doesn't anybody care
'Bout all the existential despair
Drink with me tonight and we'll share
Our existential despair
No one noticed I cut my hair
That's existential despair

Seven Deadly Habits
04:20
|
|||
We left the ground in summer
We took off for the stars
We said we would do better
We'd drive electric cars
The longing in my soul
Is considerable
It won't be gone by morning
It seems like such a waste
To learn from our mistakes
If it means that we're old and boring
The seven deadly habits
Are coming for our planet
The human condition
Is back with a mission
The seven deadly habits
Are dictating our actions
The prehistoric sin
That is our origin
She died from complications
Multiplicity was her vice
Her clone had alterations made
To prevent it happening twice
And now looking at her's
Not what I remember
There's a difference in her gaze
Tradition and routine
Are powerful machines
Ever present beneath the surface
The seven deadly habits
Are photos in the attic
The evidence of doubt
That you forgot about
The seven deadly habits
Implore you not to panic
For they are nothing new
They are a part of you

Every Song Is Cool
04:10
|

Every song is cool, every song is tight
Do you want to listen to some songs with me tonight
Every song is cool, every song is dope
When people ask "do you hate this song?" I always reply "nope"
That's right, I like every song, even the shitty ones
It doesn't have to be moving and it doesn't have to be fun
It just has to be a song, that's all that I require
Give me songs 'cause all the songs are all that I desire
Give me Sweet Home Chicago, give me Singin' in the Rain
Give me Juicy, give me Fade to Black, and give me Train in Vain
Give me the Cha Cha Slide, give me Gangnam Style, and give me So What
Give me Bye Bye Love, give me Buy Me a Boat, give me Big Ol' Butt
Give me the William Tell Overture and give me Teenage Dream
Give me Same Love, give me the Super Mario Brothers underground theme
Give me music to listen to
It's the only thing that gets me through
Quit your job and drop out of school
So you can listen to music
'Cause every song is cool
What's your favorite song? Mine is all of them
They should make a radio station called Everything FM
People have been writing songs since before the Berlin Wall
And I'm gonna be the first person ever to listen to them all
'Cause every song is cool, every song is great
When I review a song on Amazon I always give it a ten
Have you heard of this band? They're called the Rolling Stones
I like them, another artist I like is Norah Jones
Give me El Condor Pasa, give me Everything Is Awesome
Give me 99 Luftballons and give me 99 Problems
Give me Don't Fear the Reaper, give me Daddy Lessons, give me Ode to Joy
Give me My Humps, give me Mama Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys
Give me Suck a Caribou's Ass, give me Fly Me to the Moon
Give me What a Wonderful World, give me that song old clocks play at noon
Give me music to listen to
It's the only thing that gets me through
Quit your job and drop out of school
So you can listen to music
'Cause every song is so cool
Do you like this song? No? Well that's okay
If you wrote your own damn song I would still like it anyway
It takes guts to write a song, sometimes it makes me sick
I can't work up the courage to pick up my guitar pick
Would you hold my hair while I barf in the sink
Will anybody like this song? What do you honestly think?
I really doubt they will but hey I hope I'm wrong
Maybe they are just like me and they like every single song
Give me Let It Go, give me Lovesick Blues, give me I Love My Rooster
Give me Eleanor Rigby, give me Also Sprach Zarathustra
Give me a bird singing in a tree and give me Brokedown Palace
Give me Marvin I Love You, give me California Uber Alles
Give me Buenas Noches Desolacion and give me Walking the Cow
Give me a song that no one knows that some kid's writing right now
Give me music to listen to
It's the only thing that gets me through
I quit my job and dropped out of school
So I could listen to music
'Cause every song is cool
No it doesn't matter which song
'Cause every song is hella cool

Gas Station Coffee
05:03
|

Gas station coffee makes me think of you
Oh yeah, gas station coffee makes me think of you
And the closeness we once knew
Your very first kiss, it wasn't like you dreamed
Oh no, your very first kiss, in the light of the low beams
The bitter taste of coffee without a trace of cream
We were the weirdos, the oddballs and the freaks
Oh yeah, we were the weirdos, stranger than Twin Peaks
So when was it you began to look down on the weak
Forced conversation, you wouldn't speak your mind
Oh no, forced conversation, that's the worst kind
With our eyes on the road ahead, desire got left behind
You read your poem out loud, but your word choice didn't ring true
Oh no, you read your poem out loud, but your harsh voice was hard to cling to
Talkin' 'bout how you longed for love while I was worshiping you
I'll see you on the news someday for doing something crazy
I'll see you on the news and I'll say "hey I know that lady
We used to hang out in gas stations back in the 1980s"
Gas station coffee makes you think of me
Oh yeah, gas station coffee makes you think of me
What a life to have lived, to be in your memory

Take good care of yourself you massive ass
And have fun when you go to hell
Take excellent care of yourself
I hate you so much but I still wish you well
You've been a total douchebag since the day I met you
But I want to forgive and especially forget you
And they say living well is the best revenge
So call me selfish but let's make amends
I hope one day you write me an email
And say you're sorry for being such a goddamn piece of shit
But I'm not gonna hold your breath
And anyway having such specific expectations probably makes me a hypocrite
Let's not pretend I don't have problems of my own
You might be a piece of shit but you're not alone
And the only mistakes are the ones we don't learn from
So let's look forward at the days to come
The words you said to me had long term effects
Don't beat yourself up though, you just gave me an inferiority complex
Yeah just so you know you're kind of a dick
But that's okay, life's hard for everyone and nobody's perfect
Please don't think I'm being disingenuous
I want nothing but the best for both of us
And everyone deserves a hopeful future
Even you, you insufferable motherfucker

Your Dick Is Perfect
06:35
|
|||
My dick is perfect
It's such a good fit
There's nothing wrong with it
I love my dick
My dick is perfect
So handsome and so small
Resting gently above my two perfect balls
You've been so self-conscious
You've been wandering off track
I'm here to help you get your groove back
'Cause your dick is perfect
Stop worrying about it
Not too thin or too thick
I love your dick
I have wondered if I'm normal
Do I measure up to other guys
Can I know they're being honest
When they tell me it's a pleasing size
All the growers and the showers
Is it weird to be uncircumcised
I don't think it really matters
Fuck anybody who would criticize
I know the movie you watched
Had a guy who was hung like Sasquatch
And now you feel like you're not pulling your weight
But your dick is perfect
Your dick is worth it
Don't doubt that you deserve it
You're doing great
It might not be that big
Or it might be enormous
Who really gives a shit if it does its job
Or even if it doesn't
If you've got some dysfunction
It don't make you less of a person to me
I have wondered if I'm normal
Do I measure up to other guys
Can I know they're being honest
When they tell me it's a pleasing size
All the growers and the showers
Is it weird to be uncircumcised
I don't think it really matters
Fuck anybody who would ostracize
Black dicks are perfect
White dicks are perfect
Gay dicks are perfect
Just as they are
Viagra dicks are perfect
Transgender dicks are perfect
Microscopic dicks are perfect
Just as they are
His dick is perfect
Her dick is perfect
All of our dicks are perfect
Just as they are
My dick is perfect
I love my dick
