New Empire 02:40
They put the bankers and the lawyers in the Hippodrome And made them fight to the death They fed the winners to lions It was an awesome weekend They helped me change my tire, threw my TV on the fire I love the New Empire I love the New Empire Get dressed, set yourself on fire They threw a party in the citadel Bosphorus They gave everybody free white phosphorus We got high and then our skin sloughed off You said we had to fuck twice or it wasn't enough You bought me jewelry from a liar, threw the clerics on the fire I love the New Empire I love the New Empire Get dressed, set yourself on fire

Human Being 02:44
Do you feel rejected by your government the way I feel rejected by you? Do you feel protected from the violence the way I've been protecting you? You're not a human being You're not anything Have you been directed by the corporate board of governance 'cause you just gotta do what you do? Do you feel disrespected by your supervisor? and baby just say yeah if you do Yeah You're not a human being You're not anything

Friday Night! It was a Friday night home invasion The cops fell asleep at the station You thought that I was on vacation What a horrific situation And baby it's over You said Baby it's over, and I wish you were dead It was a Friday night Friday night! Well I guess I should have known you were crazy I was hiding underneath my bed Waiting for somebody to save me But you broke through the door instead It was a Friday night home invasion Male, 6'2" and caucasian Cause of death strangulation We need fingerprint identification And baby it's over You said Baby it's over, and I wish you were dead It was a Friday night Friday night! Well I guess you'll just go out to the graveyard 'Cause that's the only place that makes sense I guess you'll just go out to the graveyard And hide all of the evidence Now hide my body My bloody clothes My tennis shoes My monogrammed toothbrush My valuables Friday night!

I was talking to your manager You should practice your cuneiform And I found your stash of cloroform Just fucking dance Did you major in philosophy? They electrocuted Socrates For his crimes against humanity Let's fucking dance Is your TV on the floor of your apartment? Does your job not pay enough to afford rent? Did mommy and dad graduate from Dartmouth? Are you finding fun and fancy friends to play with? You are driving through a barricade Time is passing at a constant rate Do you find it hard to concentrate? Just fucking dance

Life Is Pain 04:37
Good morning, baby I love all your ideas Took the job downtown Where I guard the museums Life is pain Good evening, darling Let me tell you the deal I'm the son of a god But that god isn't real In the city Where they call you by name I'm 1000 years old But I'm digging my grave Life is pain Deep as the sky Strong as the ocean We built the Parthenon And sold it off to Romans So pay tribute, honey I absolve you your crimes In ether Where the world is unmade A responsible man A respectable trade Life is pain
