Calgone - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:37:00 Listen:Lyrics:On my way home, police car pulled me over.After they left, I puttered out of gas.Triple-A' came, but my card was expired!I had to walk home, and of course, it rained half the time.I tried to get some shut-eye, then I was abducted!They put cold things in my butt.They sampled a bit of my D.N.A.They left me on top of my sheets,I dreamt I went potty, then woke up drenched in me.This day sucked the hardest ever...I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today.A little bit less than nothing would go my way.I got up to toss my soiled sheets,the hallway was dark and I stubbed my big toe.It was then that I sensed the irony (burning me),then I heard the voice say,"Come sail aboard S.S. Nepenthe!"I suppose I'm to blame for getting pulled over.I guess I'm the culprit for running out of gas.Let's assume I'm the guy who didn't pay his 'Triple-A' fee.In actuality, I let the zetas probe me.Yesterday was all my fault.I let negativity get the better of me.Thank goodness for the batht ...

Deep Inside - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:36:00 Listen:Lyrics:It's 3 o'clock,and we ask ourselves,"Where are we now?"It seems we've wondered out of bounds again!(Over and over, we ask ourselves why we don't utilizethings that are storeddeep inside of our brains!)I'm on my own and I can't see straight!Am I so stoned that I can't see straight?Man, I've got to find my way back home,but I'm too deep insideIt's 4 o'clock,and we ask ourselves,"Where did we go wrong?We passed my house at least an hour ago!"Over and over, we ask ourselves whydon't we utilize thingsthat are stored deep inside of our brains!I'm on my own and I can't see straight?Am I sooo stoned that I can't see straight?It's 5 o'clock,and we tell ourselves,"We need to get home! The sun is creeping overhead again!"I'm way too deep inside to go home...I've got to get sane! ...

New Skin - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:35:00 Listen:Lyrics:At first I see an open woundinfected and disastrousIt breathes chaotic catastropheit cries to be renewedIts tears are the color of anger,they dry to form a scabTo the touch, its stiff and resilient,underneath, the new skin breathesAs outwardly cliche as it may seem,yes, something under the surface says,"C'est la vie"It is a circle, there is a plandead skin will atrophy itself to start againLook closely at the open woundsee past what covers the surfaceUnderneath chaotic catastrophe,creation takes stage.Its all been savedwith exception for the right partsWhen will we be new skin?Its all been seen with exception for what could beWhen will we be new skin?Fallacious cognitionsspewed from televisionsdo mold our decisions.So stop and take a look,and you'll see what I see now ...

Idiot Box - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:34:00 Listen:Lyrics:You keep your riches and I'll sew my stitches,you can't make me think like you, mundane.I've got a message for all those who think thatthey can etch his words inside my brainT.V., what do I need?Tell me who to believe!What's the use of autonomywhen a button does it all?So listen up,glisten up closely all,who've seen the fuckin eye ache too.It's time to step away from cable trainAnd when we finally see the subtle light,this quirk in evolution will beginto let us live and recreateT.V., what do I need?Tell me who to believe!Whats the use of autonomywhen a button does it all?T.V., what should I see?Tell me who should I be?Lets do our mom a favor and dropa new god off a wall.Let me see past the fatuous knocks.I've gotta rid myself of this idiot box!Let you see past the feathers and flocks,and help me plant a bomb in this idiot box!From the depths of the seato the tops of the treesto the seat of a lazy boy...staring at a silver screen!! ...

A Certain Shade of Green - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:32:00 Listen:Lyrics:A certain shade of green,tell me, is that what you need?All signs around say move ahead.Could someone please explain to me your ever presentlack of speed?Are your muscles bound by ropes?Or do crutches cloud your day?My sources say the road is clear,and street signs point the way.Are you gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.?What are you waiting for,A certain shade of green?I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate.What are you waiting for,A certain shade of green?Would a written invitationsigned, "Choose now or lose it all,"sedate your hesitation?Or inflame and make you stall?You've been raised in limitation,but that glove never fit quite right.The time has passed for hand-me-downs,choose anew, please evolve,take flightWhat are you waiting for?A written invitation?A public declaration?A private consolation? ...

Glass - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:27:00 Listen:Lyrics:If I had a dime for every time you walked away,I could afford to not give a shitand buy a drink and drown the dayBut your pockets, they are empty,yeh, and mine are times twoSo why not make an about-face,and accept the love I send to you?You're never gonna be content if you don't try,try to see outside your line.There you go, you did it again!You act as if there's blinders on your eyes.Should I apologize if what I say burns your ears and stainsyour eyes?!Oh, did I crack your shell?When it falls away, you'll see we exist as well!Like a bottle with the cork stuck,your true ingredients trapped inside.Through the cloudy glass we catch a glimpse of you,I guess the hard shell represents your pride.Oh, if only it could be differentwe could uncover the you, you deny.Between two, a small discrepancy,one complicates and one simplifies.TAKE THOSE FUCKING BLINDERS OFF YOUR EYES!!So if I had a dime for every time you walked away,you could bet your bottom dollar thatI'd be filthy r ...

Nebula - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:21:00 Listen:Lyrics:Disconnect and let me drift,until my upside down is right side in.Society must let the artist go,to wander off into the nebula.Upon return, I conjure what was seen.I let it pulse and boil within my limbs.I lay my pencil to the porous page,and let my lunatic indulge itself.Wander off into your nebula, see your nectarine ofmultiplicity cum like orgasmatronon overdrive!Wander in off to your nebula, your tangerine ofelectricity is ripe and on a vine, so pick your prize!Do you enjoy your sight inside?In little, black book do I confide! ...

Favorite Things - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:20:00 Listen:Listen:I'm thinking of my soul's sovereignty,and I know everything you hate in me.Fill me up with over-pious badgerings,to throw them up, oh, one of my favorite things.Remember all the lessons fed to me?Me the young sponge, so ready to agree.Years have gone; I recognize the walking dead,now aware that I'm alive and way ahead.Too bad the things that make you madare my favorite things.And I'm so happy.I see you looking, I know that you're thinkingthat I'll never go anywhere.The things that I've done and the thingsthat I've seen, I don't really expect you to care. ...

Summer Romance (Anti-Gravity Love Song) - Incubus 2007-11-16 07:14:00 Listen:Lyrics:I'm home alone tonight.Full moon illuminates my room, and sends my mind aflight.I think I was dreaming up some thoughts that were seeminglypossible...with you.So I call you on the tin can phone.We rendezvous at a quarter-two, and make sure we're alone.I think I've found a way for you and I to finally fly free.When we get there, we're gonna go far away.Making sure to laugh; while we experience anti-gravity.For years, I kept it to myself.Now potentialities are bound, and sleeping under my shelf.Simply choose your destination from the diamond canopy,and we'll be there.So I call you on the tin can phone.We rendezvous at a quarter-two, and make sure we're alone.I think I've found the way for you and I to finally be free ...
