Everything is covered in ants
They pour out of my walls and make me answer their demands
Yet you still insist I give them a chance
While I kindly sit and listen to your sycophantic rants go on and on
The ants are charging a fee
So I can live inside and have a space belong to me
Yet there's no reason it shouldn't be free
Cause the ants don't even live here, they just leave to feed there queen
And the market overflows, with folks who can't afford their clothes
The market only knows, who lives, who dies, who blows their nose
Everything is there on my lease
The ants come a la carte and can claim anything they see
(It kinda) feels like something from a bad dream
But I'm never waking up because the ants are pinching me and I'm still here
The ants, they covet my flesh
They say that it is perfect for a massive, birthing nest
So now, I come to find I'm possessed
The ants pick throaugh my veins until I'm bloated and depressed
And the market overflows, with folks who can't afford their clothes
The market only knows, who lives, who dies, who blows their nose
Yeah, I'm sick of living this way
This scrounging around every day
So I have enough cash to pay
The antlords to keep them at bay
From nesting themselves in my bones
And turning me into their home
For all time, my body will roam
A husk with no will of its own
Yeah, I'm sick of living this way
This scrounging around every day
So I have enough cash to pay
The antlords to keep them at bay
From nesting themselves in my bones
And turning me into their home
For all time, my body will roam
A husk with no will of its own

Adderall

Pump me up with drunk and drugs
I wish I understood the way you're moving
You're just so damn confusing
And I don't get it
I don't want that much from life
A small apartment just to make my music
You might call me a loser
But I won't listen
I've been avoiding adderall
Like it's the plague
But in this economy
I need the extra focus
Hocus pocus, pop the pill to
Make it somewhere in this lifetime
Got no lifeline
When's the revolution coming, and will it call my landline?
I don't mind the emptiness
The bottle drains like all the rest, diffusing
Drip drop, drip drop, I'm boozing
So I can smile
Under this administration
Most are not surprised to find me using
Well, it's more like abusing
But what's the difference?
I've been avoiding adderall
Like it's the plague
But in this economy
I need the extra focus
Hocus pocus, pop the pill to
Make it somewhere in this lifetime
Got no lifeline
When's the revolution coming, and will it call my landline?
Slow down
Take it step by step
Day by day, it's okay
Nothing's gonna happen in the next few minutes
Oh shit, here come the nukes
I've been avoiding adderall
Like it's the plague
But in this economy
I need the extra focus
Hocus pocus, pop the pill to
Make it somewhere in this lifetime
Got no lifeline
When's the revolution coming, and will it call my landline?
I've been avoiding adderall
Like it's the plague
But in this economy
I need the extra focus
Hocus pocus, pop the pill to
Make it somewhere in this lifetime
Got no lifeline
When's the revolution coming, and will it call my landline?
Oh yeah!

And if you see tomorrow,
Would you tell me what it's like to be free?
And if you see tomorrow,
Would you tell me what it's like to believe?
It's not that simple when you're under control
Of a 300 foot statue that's a century old
And a set of ideals that have grown covered with mold
And a group of politicians who are older than gold
It's true
I'm a little bit blue
And if you breathe tomorrow,
Would you tell me what it's like to breathe clean?
And if you breathe tomorrow,
Would you tell me what it's like to be seen?
It's not that simple when you're under control
Of a 300 foot statue that's a century old
And a set of ideals that have grown covered with mold
And a group of politicians who are older than gold
It's true
I'm a little bit blue
And if we win tomorrow,
Would you tell me what it's like when we've won?
And if we win tomorrow,
Would you tell me what it's like when we've begun?
It's not that simple when you're under control
Of a 300 foot statue that's a century old
And a set of ideals that have grown covered with mold
And a group of politicians who are older than gold
It's true
I'm a little bit blue
It's true
I'm a little bit blue
