Chess Becomes Chinese Checkers Lyrics by One Eye Open

Nerds

0

A very important time for me
Me, myself, and I, we, we get together
What's wrong, I don't know I do it cause I need to
And I said so, I said no, I said go ahead with your bad shellfish
Time to clear my shelf
And spare myself a new direction
If you read you'll see the section, provided through
(oh, did I mention?) A solitary sense of self
No guilt

No guilt
No guilt
No guilt
No guilt
No guilt
No guilt

Too much sleep today baggy baggy eyelid face
Crawl back into bed
Grab cold spoons from the freezer
And try to make the baggy go away, not today, not today
Pulled the blinds apart a thick fog said, "Hello, (Hello there)
It's lookin' good next to you on your pillow."
He crawled beneath the blankets, pushed me to
The floor. My feet got cold so I rush
To the sock store
Just my luck, those fucks (Fucks!)
Didn't have a sock in my size
Oh, that's fine
Pulled a stiletto from my napsack
And made sock store clerk pate
That mother fuckin' punk had to pay

Celebrating the finer things
Like knowing how to turn about negative fringe
We do it, we do it all over
(We do it all over again)
The reason for your messy blunder is leaving the back door wide open
If you wince at the thought of solution existing beyond the pollution that's jading your brain
Chess becomes Chinese checkers!
If you sit for a period of time and let yo'self get boggled all over these games
Chess becomes Chinese checkers!

The subject turns to social critique o
Opinions change with the various breed
Filibuster, I don't want to talk about it
To the private sector of the central sin
The turn of events and eventual disaster
Collapse and slurp on the schlong of yo masta

Celebrating the finer things
Like knowing how to turn about negative fringe
We do it, we do it all over
(We do it all over again)
The reason for your messy blunder is leaving the back door wide open
If you wince at the thought of solution existing beyond the pollution that's jading your brain
Chess becomes Chinese checkers!
If you sit for a period of time and let yo'self get boggled all over these games
Chess becomes Chinese checkers!
