Lyrics (roughly):

You went out for a walk
I'm sure you went a long ways
Sorting things out in our heads
We'll forget in a few days

In the place before you're made
They give you all these options
Like if you've got wings
Or have you got feelings
Or can you breathe underwater

He chose lifting ten times his weight
And natural body armor
On the day his mother gave
He came out as an insect

People talkin soda pop
They talk it quite a lot
The opinions that I don't give
Are the opinions I don't got

White lies fall off of my yellow teeth,
I didn't convince you but I believed
White lies fall off my yellow teeth,
I didn't convince you but I believed

White lies fall off my yellow teeth,
I didn't convince you but I believed

It's all so plain it's all a plan
It's all so plain to most everyone
The sky doesn't ever end
The air just gets much thinner

I knew a man who went on and on
About how he knew a man, who knew a man
Who knew a man who knew him once
You can keep digging down and down
Without even turnin round, or finding hell
You'll find you're digging up again

Some hippie told me "Free your pets"
So I let them all go free
It didn't take no time at all,
Then they came running back to me

White lies fall off my yellow teeth,
I didn't convince you but I believed

[The Giant Rock N' Roll Swindle (2002)]

    mm never dulls to me

  • @floogelhagen Calm your tits, I didn't mean creepy like that. Oh and, I liked the part when you made baseless asumptions about me. That was clever.

  • i hear spitting venom and willful suspension of disbelief 

  • best song ever

  • @TheIMonstahI hey look at that, he's got a buddy XD

  • @Cola3607 why do you have to be a bitch!!

  • @robmacdona ...yes, yes he did say it was creepy you unbelievably stupid cunt. I know how hard it is to read over a 500 letter comment, for you I imagine it must take several hours, but I hope you now see the value of actually reading the issue before opening your stupid fucking mouth.

  • "opinions that i do not give are the opinions i dont got". he mustve reused those for spittin venom!

  • @floogelhagen He was a asking a question, he never said anything was creepy, he was trying to clarify, how fucking stupid are you?
