Hush, Money 02:19
(Scheuer, Marchant) Slicked back hair Camel hair jacket Six bucks an hour Six bucks an hour Silver Bullet Band Drive, drive, drive the big city Smoke, smoke, smoke if you got 'em Tell me now, hey Bob where we're goin'? Just shut yr mouth and keep rollin' Slicked back hair Camel hair jacket Six bucks an hour Six bucks an hour Silver Bullet Band Drive, drive, drive the big city Smoke, smoke, smoke if you got 'em Tell me now, hey Bob where we're goin'? Just shut yr mouth and keep rollin' The thrill you get from this scares me The thrill you get from this scares me The thrill you get from this scares me You messed up my shoes I should've went with the black metal tour bus I should've went with the black metal tour bus I should've went with the black metal tour bus They wouldn't mess with my shoes I didn't even need this job Slicked back hair Silver bullet

Lotto 02:50
(Marchant) "Well, I woke up" is a dumb place to start You'll be bored to tears God speed to such a bless'd and disorganized dart Hack up your halcyon years Your halcyon years Stuck between the bed and the wall for three hours Serendipitous simp Promised a pretty penny Well, what do you want? Equity? A merciful walk with a limp? I keep checking the big check I keep checking the big check I keep checking the big check It's I-dyl-lic I keep checking the big check I keep checking the big check I keep checking the big check It's I-dyl-lic Cut the coupon Lick the stamp Sick decisions, scissored senseless Off on tangents and taste Quick decision Can you make one? Correct ones will direct ones To a third party debate Tickled pink by the most Vividly grey thing What luck, you golden gink! A favorable fluke Befitting of you It's full-on fortunate I keep checking the big check I keep checking the big check I keep checking the big check It's I-dyl-lic I keep checking the big check I keep checking the big check I keep checking the big check It's I-dyl-lic I'm still waiting to be hit by that car I'm still waiting for that big check It's idyllic

Cohesion II 01:59
(Scheuer) Before the start! A united whole Well that’s commitment! To the task Ah, ah jeez Help us please At the end Don’t give up hope I've got a little bit of… Mercury! Mercury! Mercury! In a glass flask I got third degree I got third degree I got third degree Burns on my brain I’m here to inquire About your spoons Yeah, you’ve arrived Sooner than we’ve expected Yeah, you’ve arrived Sooner than we could be making plans To provide enough... Mercury! Mercury! Mercury! In a glass flask I got third degree I got third degree I got third degree Burns on my brain

(Marchant) Ski mask Tap the glass I fancy myself A knife and fork man Labels out For bad mouths Meal-taking from a box Straight gout Perfect fucking cap toss Cranking up the Rick Ross A proper manly example End your life and your channel Have you heard about the void? Look into it Have you heard about the void? Look into it He'll snuff your light out like a candle Let a man sleep Have you heard about the void? Look into it Let a man sleep Let a man sleep Shoot the mouth off Let a man sleep Billy Dee is smiling down on me Let a man sleep Let a man sleep Turn the camera off Let a man sleep

(Scheuer) Will the planet explode? And in thousands of years Give off a glow? A culmination of fears An eight dollar fare Tell the kids don’t be scared It’s just a walk on It's a walk on It's a walk on the shore They’ve all been there They've been there They've been there before Red and blue lights Visions at night Space-suited dreams They’re not all what they seem What they seem What they seem now Laser beam eyes A sky full of holes Can you discern all Discern all Discern all the lies? The state is taking It's taking It's taking its toll It's taking its toll It's taking its toll It's taking its toll It's taking its toll It's taking its toll It's taking its toll It's taking its toll

Coif/Cool 02:00
(Scheuer) All y'all Are weirdin’ me out All y'all Are weirdin’ me out Feel like it’s a bit much To stress about Fall down like you mean it Fall down like you mean it Calm down, kid Pick a spot and stick with it Ease your taxed brain Have a shot, don’t dick it up This all means less than much This all means less than much That or the jerks win That or the jerks win Are we where we were meant to be? Meant to be Meant to be Meant to be Click yes if you think that some cloud will come down Click no when you know that we just become ground Go right to the spot where you’ll feel the most safe Click yes if you think that some cloud will come down Click no when you know that we just become ground Go right to the spot where you’ll feel the most safe

Speedy Moves 01:54
(Marchant) U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves U got speedy moves Moving at a good clip Up there with the hot shit Handing out the grawlixes Only deal in briffits People as my witness Go about your business Speedy moves

(Hanke) The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The ghost The coast is clear We sin by silence Cut all our losses We sin by silence Veiled threats to light up To light up the jets A blank check for security Disassembled and shelved It's all on our watch It's all on our watch Veiled threats to light up To light up the jets A blank check for security Disassembled and shelved It's all on our watch Consigned to unspoken history Compartmentalized Shot the leading lights out Shot the leading lights out From inception to infinity From conception to eternity So pay up So pay up So pay up So pay up So pay up So pay up So pay up So pay up We sin by silence Cut all our losses We sin by silence Veiled threats to light up To light up the jets A blank check for security Disassembled and shelved It's all on our watch It's all on our watch Veiled threats to light up To light up the jets A blank check for security Disassembled and shelved It's all on our watch

Folds 02:14
(Scheuer, Marchant) Is the darkness fading to light? I’ve got a feeling it's not I’ve got a creeping sensation It'll be over soon But we’ll have to give up a lot With ears like these How can they take you seriously? You, seriously With ears like these How will they keep you out of their club? Out of their club How many minutes will it take ‘til they break And accept that you’re fancy? How many cats can we fit into this car? We’re going to build a dynasty With ears like these How could they keep you out of their club? You're out of their club With ears like these When will they take you seriously? Seriously Is the darkness fading to light? I’ve got a feeling it's not But I’ve got a creeping sensation It'll be over soon We’ll have to give up a lot We’ll have to give up a lot Lilac-coating and genes for folding A Scot raised in the city I mutate perfect padding What I found in my matting Constant scrutiny But I got wax build-up!

(Marchant, Scheuer) A building gets a history I need confrontation A building gets a history I need confrontation A building gets a history A true rivet head A building gets a history Now that's the spirit! Clock your clock off Clock your clock off No platforms No chokers No goggles No gauntlets Clock your clock off Creepers to the max We'll be taking blood baths With pollyanna polymaths Drown it out with hand claps Clock your clock off Clock your clock off Wait No Hey Ho Clock your clock off Take out the stethoscope Touch it to the ground Pick out the right boots The sickest stomping sound Hold hold hold hold hold hold hold hold... We value your… To stomp once is often To clap twice is endless Hold tight to true-ass things Hold tight to true-ass things

Session Man 02:27
(Scheuer) Don't get too inquisitive He's getting started right now Whenever you guys are ready We can begin the process process If I were you If I were you If I were you That's a picture That's a frame-job That's just a portrait of a man in perfect health! Just don't get too inquisitive He's getting started already He only entertains serious offers It's a wonder how he's managed to survive this long But we know We know We know His secret It's in the supplements It's in the things he eats Just don't get too inquisitive He's getting hungry already Don't get too inquisitive Too inquisitive Too inquisitive It could have come from anyone It could have come from anyone It's all in the presentation It's all in the presentation

(Scheuer) Just who in the hell is responsible around here? Around here Talking back to yr peers Can only get you so far But winning this bout of anger Might leave a few scars I've been feeling lately like keeping my mouth shut But I hear youths have been gathering I hear they've been exchanging cameras And bottling looks It seems they're just here for the hooks It seems they're just here It seems they're just here For the hooks For the hooks For the hooks For the hooks For the hooks For the hooks For the hooks May I conclude I'm a little myself Just who in the hell Is responsible Around here?
