Core Values

You preach core values, yeah the ones you just made up
But I see through it, I think I've had enough
You've made it very clear, that this ain't no career
I think I'm done with it, you can't fire me because I quit
(woahs)
A life coach can't fix you, or fix this stupid place
Can't change who I am, can't change your ugly face
Everyone around you thinks that you're the shit
I know exactly who you are, can't fire me because I quit
(woahs)
Boss gets a dollar, I get a dime
How much is it worth to waste my time
From now on I promise I'll never call in sick
Oh and one more thing, fuck this place I quit

Cigs And Whiskey

I don't know, what you're thinking
But I'm pretty sure that you've been drinking
I don't know, what you're after
But I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter
Ship has sailed, yeah it's sinking
Maybe we just call it even
I bet you're gonna miss me
More than those cigarettes and whiskey
More than the writing on the wall
More than you did the time before
I bet you're gonna miss me… miss me
More than those cigarettes and whiskey
I don’t know, what you're doing
How much shit ya gonna ruin
I don’t know, what the cost is
Write it off, cause we lost it
Ship has sailed, yeah it's sinking
Maybe we just call it even

Like An Arrow

Live your life on the straight and narrow
Like an arrow, like an arrow
Never cared for the sidelined freak shows
What do they know, what do they know
You never found where you fit in
You'll be anything but one of them.
Live your life on the straight and narrow
Like an arrow, like an arrow, like an arrow
But you're not what you wanna be
You phone it in like an absentee
Like everything that you don't wanna be
Like an arrow, like an arrow
Wasted on the routine
progress takes a backseat
And now every time you look at me it's
Like an arrow, like an arrow
Pull back and release the sorrow
Like an arrow, like an arrow
it's a tough pill to swallow
What do they know, what do they know
Never found where you fit in
You'll be anything but one of them.
Live your life on the straight and narrow
Like an arrow, like an arrow, like an arrow
Maybe your next shot will make it obvious
Maybe your next shot will make us all behave, we should already know
Maybe you'll decide what's best for all of us.
Maybe double down on your mistakes
Wasted on the routine
While we take a backseat
And now every time you look at me it's
Like an arrow, like an arrow
Wrapped up in a cliché
Unable to convey
Exactly what you want to say to me….so...
Like an arrow, like an arrow

Pick Your Friends

Kid you've got a couple things to learn
You better calculate your numbers, there's mistakes at every turn
You're not looking for advice, you're not looking to think twice
Gotta role the dice to see what's in em'
Kid they say you ask to many questions
You better figure out which side, greater or less than
You wanna be on in the end
Careful how you pick your friends
They can only drag you down if you let em'
They can only pick you up if you let em'
Kid they say you ask too many questions
Be careful who's advice you make a lesson
They can only pick you up if you let em'
They can only drag you down if you let em'
They can only pick you up if you let em'

They say, you can have anything
Want anything
Take anything
That said, probably better off that you don't
They say, you can be anyone
Pick anyone
Yeah anyone
That said, probably better off on your own
Better check what you've been sold
The full price is never shown
What's the tax on a temporary fix?
Yeah I don’t know, I don’t know
They say, you can go anywhere
See anywhere
Be anywhere
That said, probably better off staying home.
They say, you can have the right friends
Buy the right friends
Know the right friends
That said, probably never felt so alone
Better check what you've been sold
The full price is never shown
What's the tax on a temporary fix
Yeah I don’t know, I don’t know
So you take what ya get,
And you reap what you sow
With the bills piled high
Looks like you're running the show
So it's debt after debt
Yeah you're digging a hole
Keeping up with the Joneses
That's the way that it goes
Yeah that's the way it goes

Cynicool

How did you get this way
How'd you become such a cynic?
Bitter and jealous of everyone else
But to proud to admit it.
When the other shoe finally drops
I'm sure you'll be the one standing on top
Of a list that rates everyone else
On a scale up to ten
You'll be quietly tallying up
All the losses and wins
Rehashing memories stuck on replay
I sure hope I never end up that way
(Chorus)
Cause I don't want, to hear what ya gotta say
You don't want, to leave it unsaid
We don’t want to be another part of this
Stupid conversation again.
Taking the low road,
Cause you don’t like to climb
Taking the short cut
Cause you're always behind
Taking the debt that you'll never repay
I sure hope I never end up that way.
And you say
It's always someone elses fault (all we ever hear you say)
But we're not listening at all.

Great album! Great production! Reminds me of Lillingtons, Screeching Weasel and Enemy You. As a Milwaukee native, looking forward to hopefully catching a show when back visiting family/friends! Top 3 are Devious, Lights Out, and Straight Jacket.
