Runnin my rules through the jaw machines
I can give the devil five in a grayscale scene
Pointless tune out the blues guitar playin
Just writin down what she was sayin
Crooked tin table fall on the floors
Acid folk laughin back behind the door
I could use a lift to the uptown end where the losers hope and delusions bend
Drifter jailbait totally naïve gropin for aces up in my sleeve
Spades and clubs, yeah, shovels and bars
These eyes gotta lie all past the par
Phantom plastic vision false, complete chaotic plasma waltz
Scrapin change and changing sides
Thrift store reject hitchin rides
Uptown siren, uptown siren, uptown siren, uptown siren
A total ripoff trashcan riff stuck in neutral on the edge of a cliff
Obviously tailored redundant vowels echoes of familiar howls
Fuck it I’m a junked-out jaded guest, a non-promoted solitary best
There’s still time before you can score the game and I could hardly spell her name
Uptown siren, uptown siren, uptown siren, uptown siren
I can give the devil five in a grayscale scene
Pointless tune out the blues guitar playin
Just writin down what she was sayin
Crooked tin table fall on the floors
Acid folk laughin back behind the door
I could use a lift to the uptown end where the losers hope and delusions bend
Drifter jailbait totally naïve gropin for aces up in my sleeve
Spades and clubs, yeah, shovels and bars
These eyes gotta lie all past the par
Phantom plastic vision false, complete chaotic plasma waltz
Scrapin change and changing sides
Thrift store reject hitchin rides
Uptown siren, uptown siren, uptown siren, uptown siren
A total ripoff trashcan riff stuck in neutral on the edge of a cliff
Obviously tailored redundant vowels echoes of familiar howls
Fuck it I’m a junked-out jaded guest, a non-promoted solitary best
There’s still time before you can score the game and I could hardly spell her name
Uptown siren, uptown siren, uptown siren, uptown siren

from Battery Acid (November 25th 2005) (8:45)
Run all the rules through the jaw machines
I can give the devil five in a poverty scene
Pointless tuning out the screams in the street
Pointless trying to hide your stash from the heat
Cash and two dimebags fall on the floor
Acid folk laughing back behind the door
I could use a lift to the uptown end
Where the losers hope and delusions bend
The sad but true insatiable
The sad but true insatiable
The tie that binds unbreakable
Repetitious vicious circle
Phantom plastic vision false
Complete chaotic plasma waltz
Scraping change and changing tides
Thrift store reject hitching rides
The sad but true insatiable
The sad but true insatiable
The tie that binds unbreakable
Repetitious vicious circle
Stand in the rain til Sunday
Hide what you have to prove til you forget
It's a total letdown I'm a total letdown
No one left to violate now
A total ripoff trashcan riff
Stuck in neutral on the edge of a cliff
Obviously tailored redundant and loaned
Echoes colors hardcore stoned
You forget I'm a drugged-out jaded guest
An unpromoted solitary best
Yeah fuck it, I'm a drugged-up jaded guest
A non-promoted solitary best
