[Verse 1]
You are better than me
Girls, money, and everything
I try to compete with you
But you beat me at everything I do
[Bridge]
I see in you
The things that I would like to be
But I'm different from you
So you will have to be like me
[Chorus]
I cannot be bought
My personality is what I choose
I was brought up without a silver cup
I won't covet the things owned by you
[Verse 2]
For all the world
Material things are now more and more
Jealousy for you and me
I won't covet the things owned by your store
[Chorus]
I cannot be bought
My personality is what I choose
I was brought up without a silver cup
I won't covet the things owned by you

[Verse 1]
When the clock strikes two
There's just so much to do
And I can't explain what I need
Jobs and social groups
Hearing the latest news
Keeping your reputation clean
[Chorus]
And I don't want to worry
About being on time
I see the way you worry
And time runs your life again
[Verse 2]
The difference between East and West
Money means so much less
And objects aren't important to buy
I wish that Earth clock
Could often just be stopped
And then we look into the time
[Chorus]
And I don't want to worry about you
About being on time
I see the way you worry
And time runs your life again
[Outro]
And time runs your life again
And time runs your life again

[Verse]
Why can't people just understand
Money's something in the nature of the hand
Now as we need something to help us with
All used up and nothing more to give
[Chorus]
Change for the better
No more laziness, kills like murder
Help another you want for someday
You can't hide while I'm running
[Bridge]
And all these people they don't comprehend
All those obscure animals aren't even in their pen, no
Along the wheels comes the pain and strife
Doesn't remind the butcher we need other's lives, so
[Chorus]
Change for the better
No more laziness, kills like murder
Help another you want for someday
You can't hide while I'm running
[Bridge]
And all these people they don't comprehend
All those obscure animals aren't even in their pen
Along the wheels comes the pain and strife
Doesn't remind the butcher we need other's lives, so
[Chorus]
Change for the better
No more laziness, kills like murder
Help another you want for someday
You can't hide while I'm running
[Chorus]
Change for the better
No more laziness, kills like murder
Help another you want for someday
You can't hide while I'm running

[Verse 1]
What we're doing here, now no one knows
The thoughts, the things that I don't know
Images all but a mind blur
Your laughter has drived you here
[Chorus]
You can do what you want to
I need some time alone
Between what answers there is
I need some time alone
Don't talk to me
Don't notice me
Don't talk to me
Don't notice me
[Verse 2]
Images all but a mind blur
Your laughter has drived you here
Not in the mood, not just to justify
And not to think of what a lie
[Chorus]
You can do what you want to
I need some time alone
Between what answers there is
I need some time alone
Don't talk to me
Don't notice me
Don't talk to me
Don't notice me

Point of View

[Chorus]
Two different people, two different places
Through a one way window with two different faces
Agreements are not reached, favors are forgotten
The other person's shoes, you've not got in
[Verse]
Stubborn minded enclosed to your own world
Wake up and see someone else's morals
What's wrong to you
Might be true
I guess it's a different point of view to you
You cannot see things that are different to me
And I don't understand why you cannot see
The things that I cannot see
[Bridge]
I see what you don't see
I see what you don't see
Turn around and the shadows are all around me
[Chorus]
Two different people, two different places
Through a one way window with two different faces
Agreements are not reached, favors are forgotten
The other person's shoes, you've not got in

[Verse 1]
This one day
My mind is strained
And can I can I can I have fun
No matter what I do
Or how much I just sit here
I can't go on just sucking my thumb
[Verse 2]
Sitting with my toys
Stressing out my noise
After thinking that I couldn't read
Sitting on the porch
And waiting for the porno
While sucking on my nicotine
[Chorus 1]
I don't know why
I just want to die
And here's two bucks for you
This is the part where I should really part
But I guess I've got nothing to do
[Chorus 1]
I don't know why
I just want to die
And here's two bucks for you
This is the part where I should really part
But I guess I've got nothing to do
[Chorus 2]
Black tar, brown mud, latex paint
All in my lungs today
I guess I should listen to what the docs say
My breath is how the streets get paved everyday
[Verse 3]
Oh how the wind blows
So soft as it slides right through my nose
It's not enough 'til I cough up a lung
[Chorus 2]
Black tar, brown mud, latex paint
All in my lungs today
I guess I should listen to what the docs say
My breath is how the streets get paved everyday
[Outro]
I guess I should listen to what the docs say
My breath is how the streets get paved every day

The Longest Line

[Verse]
In the darkest tunnel it's nice to see a light
Not just a headlight
Like the one that's headed right for me
It would be nice if things would turn out right
Turn out right yeah
Don't think I'll ever see the day
I must have done something wrong
Or maybe pissed off God
I think of Chinese food when I think of life
That's sweet and sour
My life is sweet as saccharine
You know three week old milk and grapes are not, they're not the same, no
I am the one Johnny Carcinogen
I must have fucked with some witch
In turn she cursed me, cursed my life
At the end of the longest line
That's where I will always be
If you need to find me, just go to the end of the longest line
But officer that was a yellow light
The light was red, son
Insubordination, reckless driving
I must be wrong, this can't be right
I don't belong, this world is much too dangerous
For someone lacking luck, like me
[Outro]
At the end of the longest line
That's where I will always be
If you need to find me, just go to the end of the longest line
At the end of the longest line
That's where I will always be
At the end of the longest line

[Chorus]
Seen enough to eye you
But I've seen too much to try you
It's always weirdness while you
Dig it much too much to fry you
The weirdness just flows between us
Anyone can tell to see us
Freak scene just can't believe us
Can't it just be cool and leave us?
[Chorus]
Seen enough to eye you
But I've seen too much to try you
It's always weirdness while you
Dig it much too much to fry you
The weirdness just flows between us
Anyone can tell who's seen us
Freak scene just can't believe us
Can't it just be cool and leave us?
[Bridge]
So fucked, I can't believe it
If there's a way I wish we'd see it
How it could work, just can't conceive it
Oh what a mess it's just to leave it
[Outro]
Sometimes I don't thrill you
Sometimes I think I'll kill you
Just don't let me fuck up, will you?
Because when I need a friend, it's still you
