heat's coming 'round, it’s going to burn us
turns our skins hot in the furnace
sweat beads filling up the basement
feeling rather cooked in our encasement
we're all hot dogs / we're all hot dogs
long days drifting in a boiling sea
heat wave / sweat lodge
hot cave / boiling sea

Perceive a boiling of seas

if you want it, spinal tap it.
acidic rain / acidic soil
acid in my brain / permanent smile.

do, do, do you know him?
Wacky Wavy
seen him dancing up on the rooftops
he didn't mind when I stopped to watch
wacky wavy (why can’t I be more like)
wacky wavy (I swear he looked right at me)
he's always smiling, he must be carefree
I am not like him, I’m constantly worrying
Will he be okay? Does he have to dance all day?
Does he dance alone? I climbed up to see him
he said this aint his home, asked me to free him.
wacky wavy (he wants to be like me!)

Woo Wee Woo Woo Wee Wee Woo

Wacky wavy, wacky wavy

I am devastated to no end.

Dungeon Seven

(Dungeon Seven, hahahahaha!!!)
We escaped from dungeon seven
Blistered skins and filthy paws
Made dungeon six feel like heaven
There we were used fire logs
We hid four days in the sewers when,
we were caught and sent back.
This time we were in dungeon eleven,
Where we sure felt those whips crack!
Made me long for dungeon nine!
At least there we were just starved!
Dungeon five and eight both sucked
Left me with permanent scars…
I forget the first and second,
But dungeon three’s full of shit!
From the floor up to the ceiling
There is just no place to sit…
When the sentence had finally ended…
i wish I just didn’t exist!
When the sentence was finally over,
wishing that I was dead…
I was dead, I was dead, I was dead, in Dungeon ten….
We escaped dungeon 7!
I was dead / We escaped dungeon 7!
I was dead /We escaped dungeon 7!
We escaped! We escaped! We escaped! We escaped!
We escaped dungeon 7!
We escaped dungeon 7!
We escaped dungeon 7!
We escaped dungeon 7!
We escaped dungeon 7!
We escaped dungeon 7!
We escaped dungeon 7!

Same as Everyone
03:58

It’s been awhile, I’ll smile when I see you
It’s been awhile. Still seek to see the real you
I missed you every day of my life
I don’t even know when exactly you left my side..
I don’t even know if I’m still alive
Combed through every photo in my mind, I miss you
All them opportunities I could’ve kissed you
Same as everyone, same as everyone
Same as everyone, same as everyone
I’ll take a trip on south, down to Mexico
If I’m the same as everyone, I’m the same as everyone
It’s been awhile, I’ll smile when I see you
It’s been awhile. Still seek to see the real you
I missed you every day of my life
I don’t even know when exactly you left my side
I don’t even know if I’m still alive
Combed through every photo in my mind, I miss you!
Sometimes at night I split myself in two
Hours combined but those drugs just will not do this time
My heads been freed so many times I need to free me
I can’t decide if I want to stay dead or alive
My mind suspends, will you be my ghost friend?
I know the end is coming round the corner
right now for ye’
Same as everyone, same as everyone
Same as everyone, same as everyone
Same as everyone, same as everyone

legend of HeppeTeppeSeppe
my elders told me this story around campfire
legend has it theres a monster in the lake
on a full moon he comes to shake fear in your soul
but the hype is fake, you know,
he's a friendly guy, he just has a bad name!
woo!
HeppeTeppeSeppe
he just has a bad name!
HeppeTeppeSeppe
woo!
Lake Murray monster is a friend to me!
in my memory..
he's more like a human sized frog
he sings from on top of a log
and you can see him on a full moon
he will sing and dance for you!
woo!
he prefers to wear mariachi hat (oh yes he does)
with bells on the brim to match (just because)
hes dancing like no one even gives a fuck
he will sing and dance for you on a full moon
he will sing and dance for you
HeppeTeppeSeppe
once you know he is real,,
then he will go back below the water..
what's he doing down there?
ive never seen him, does he ever care...if we know?
i'll go put some scuba diving gear on
now, dive to see what's wrong
why do we have to wait till the full moon?
why cant we just hangout with you
i think you want people to believe ive
taken a thing or two
when i say HeppeTeppeSeppe is real!
HeppeTeppeSeppe is real!
HeppeTeppeSeppe is real!
HeppeTeppeSeppe is real!
HeppeTeppeSeppe is real!
