"Marchtober 14th, 1982: The acceleration of the walls was not hindered by yesterday's efforts. This morning I looked outside of the tent and Francis was [unintelligible]. He's served as an excellent trapper but I think the rays are starting to affect him as well. I've even seen him picking up domples while on his rounds. I asked him about the leaves but he denied it. I may be forced to throw him in the hole with the others. My stomach cringes from the vile flavor of the indigenous berries, which now make up my entire diet. I must not succumb to the endless twitching, lest I end up like the rest. In our last inventory of the firewood, some patches of moisture were noted. Tomorrow I'll have to AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH! AAAAAHHHHHHH! MY ARM! FRANCIS! FRANCIS! I must continue this later; it's finally collapsing..." This final entry in the journal of Captain Reginald E. Roberts gives us some insight into the final events of an ambitious expedition gone horribly awry. The crew of the Merrypost was found dead in the hollowed-out trunk of a large tree. Autopsy results... were inconclusive.

Hello, welcome to the circus This isn't just any circus It's the orange boat apple circus Sponsored in part by orange boat apples Try one today That is, if we ever let you leave the circus You'll notice to your left and to your right There are exits for your convenience You'll also notice that these exits are boarded up You can't leave ha ha ha ha ha ha I'd like to introduce myself but I can't I don't exist This is my assistant robot man He's made completely out of tin cans Except for his soul; it's made from lots of things Like purple fruit, bugs, ducks, and springs And except for his eyes they're made out of pies And except for his nose it's made out of a rose And except for his hair it's made out of a pear And except for his legs it's made out of eggs And except for his brain it's made of a train And except for his stomach it's made out of a stomach And then there's my good friend fan man He's made completely out of a fan Except for his fan which is made out of a fan Now watch us dance We're dancing as you watch We're dancing on your watch as you're watching us dance We're watching you dance You're dancing on my watch I'm watching you dance on your own watch

Life 04:00
Life, knife, cutting board, wife Move me away and infect me with blithe Go, no, I don't think so Stuff me in a mountain and cut off my toe Yes, I guess, I'm not going west Seeing you happy, it makes me depressed Rabid snakes in your corn flakes How many pills will I have to take To take me away from these twisted thoughts Evil dreams in my head are caught Drill a hole in my head When I wake up, you'll be dead Sitting at my toes at the foot of my bed Help me stay awake This evil will not pay You were killed today Wait, fate, I'll have to contemplate Hand me a fork and I'll eat off my plate Rug, a hug, Please don't eat my lugs Wrap me with cotton and I'll be snug Hurt, curt, My name's not Bert With the clouds that I may flirt Way, nay, I'll have to eat hay Sell me some sugar that I bought today Mastermind of rich gold I will find Eating up sugar it stirs up my mind A swirling abyss deep within my guts Walking down the street I may strut Eating while I'm eating With the fool of fruit you'll be feeting Is it I who you're needing Sun, fun. Please excuse my pun If you call me nuts, then I'll call you hon Man, can, this pain I can stand Put my legs in the blender put my head in the fan Book, cook, into the house I snook It was my blood I thought that you took Pen, pencil, a writing utensil Draw me a picture and I'll give you a stencil

Have you ever seen the old man who lives in the drain He's as tall as snow and behaves like a brain And some people say he's completely insane but they're wrong Things you don't see will make you blind from behind Eat the rind hear the grind what you find is your mind He's got five hands and he knows just what to do When his eyes are lost in mountains of blue He'll eat his shoe That's somethin' new

If I eat me now in my dreams, Hour to think next to the cherry And the yellow ice cream. My base begins to communicate; I use the shaver in order to answer. This educates sometimes me to miracle, which is false. Achieving into my bag For only finding that of the tooth and whose butterfly Operate I on a Circusstand. The world can go 'round up and' approximately, But my life span goes for low and for low.

Disco Zombie 01:05
Help, help, I'm zombified Thought I was dead but I'm still alive Gonna eat out your guts until you die Then you too can be zombified Disco zombie Better watch out 'cause I'm gonna eat you Stand behind your friend, well I'll eat him too Pick up sticks and buckle my shoe Gonna eat the whole world and make a zombie out of you Well I'm a redneck zombie and I'm really gross Wanna eat some brains well I eat the most Yes I'm dead but I'm not a ghost Gonna be on the front of the Washington Post

Elpasti 01:48
Swing in and out of the bottom of the pan Write your half name on a toenail can He who owns the bag of bones Holds the right to the oldest throne The coldest throne it is my home For I am the owner of the bag of phones I lost my outer mind Pie has infinite layers Each more delicious than the last Your half name is past

The Entrance 01:10
You were walking down the street and you met a little dog and he sucked you in and reality sprung around his head and all of a sudden he invited you to his house and you went and it was this giant ball and you stepped inside and everything turned black except for one sound that was clear and it was a voice and this is what you hear: "This is your mindcase you must trust me it's empty right now but I'll fill it for you in just a second. Hello my name is Lisa I'll be your god for the rest of your life and now you must tell me what you want, but first there's a catch: you must worship me for the rest of your life and sacrifice one person each day that you feel obligated—I will tell you when you will feel obligated later."

Down in the lobby where all the birdies fly I see all the rich folk I see them with my eye I go to the swimming pool to have myself a swim There's lots of fat old guys in Speedo®s but I'm not as fat as them I'm walking I walk myself back upstairs to watch the TV screen I see all the Spanish maids I think they're really mean I take a little shower and then I go to bed I like to dream of sugarplums dancing in my head (ha ha ha ha) I dream of going to Disneyland and riding all the rides I dream of going to chocolate shops and eating chocolate pies I dream of seeing Mickey Moose and all his goofy friends I dream of taking the whole day off and spending it with them I'm walking I dream of pretty beaches with sand between my toes And smelling pretty flowers smelling with my nose

Circus clowns are searching for me now Yes I don't know how to get away I wanna be my own I wanna cloud my vision with thoughts I create alone I wanna perceive only myself I wanna understand everything else But not let it into my mind I want the physical to vanish Except for the crowded dusty and unused libraries Inside my head Inside my head yeah yeah Oh here come the circus clowns They're coming to get me oh no

Corn Starch 01:42
Get up everybody Corn starch Throw your hands in the roasting pan Get your fat drippings on the floor and party Stirring to remove browned bits dance New fat-free cakes on the mic Season to taste All night over medium heat

Taking all the talking stockings Off the crystal waterplace Santa sees a ruthless caking Washing up his evil face Nothing matters, it's all controlled You'll be here till they tell you to leave. Don't write a biography it's told The minute you started to breathe Don't worry what's in it you hurry about And death is overcome in the end or at least surpassed There's a sandpool sucking in your luck And a grand fool driving your favorite truck In perception of the eyes that see an empty Wandering in the mind of a meaningless thought Of an imagined person who was never Developed you're enveloped in a secret episode And your mind begins to explode

The inner nothing that I feel has left me amidst the only thing that's real I've seen it I've become infatuated horrified and thrown completely off-guard it caught me with its lack of anything and drew me in hard You say there is no nothing if nothing existed something would be nothing and that would make nothing something but words and even thoughts are convoluted and misinterpreted by all no one understands anything until after they've experienced and become that thing I am nothing so are you

The Zoo 02:05
One time I went to the zoo I saw a tiger and a parrot and a zebra And an elephant and a giraffe and a lion And a hippo and an alligator and a peacock and an otter I like the zoo I wish I could live in there Because I feel at home with a polar bear Chewin' on my arm I don't like to eat a big balloon But I like to go to the zoo The animals are my friends except the green baboon He steals my pencil and my nose and my hairdo One time I went to outer space Outer space can't compare to the zoo I don't like to eat a big balloon But I like to go to the zoo The animals are my friends except the green baboon He steals my pants and my eyeball and my shoe Oh At the zoo Dee doot-doo Nobody should like space better than the zoo At the zoo Dee doot-doo

bow before the ice cream truck can't see it but you know that it exists and contains all flavors possible so you think of this and realize that should you feel inclined you could not create a new flavor for it's already defined

Hi, I'm a crazy guy who likes to wander around your neighborhood. Mind if I come in? Thanks. Look at my big knife; isn't it big? Would you like some cheese? May I cut you some crackers? Oh what a nice dog; is it an elephant? May I shave it? So, what are you watching? May I eat you? How 'bout a slice of plastic? Say, let's take a ride—jump on my back, I'll fly us there. What color is that? Square? Say, I haven't cut your carpet today. Nickel? You want some? They're really good mmmm. You smell that pattern? Red green orange blue metal red green orange blue metal no no no (shut the door) Do you mind if sleep on your ceiling tonight? (shut the door) It keeps my hair warm and the blood pumping to my teeth. Well I guess it's time to go, I promised my dead horse I'd play the tramboney tonight. Don't worry though (shut the door) I'll come back in 2495 years. Hear ya then. Bye-bye.

Four guys standin' around in the dark A little elf sittin' in the park by himself A big flyin' thing in the sky That's when you know you're gonna die 'Cause when the four guys come ta getcha There's no escape for you But the little elf he'll laugh atcha with his cape And there's nothin' you can do about the flyin' thing And the sky it turns to blue And your eye it turns anew And you feel like somethin' out in the ground maybe And the buzzin' sound in your eyes Makes you drown with sighs 'Cause the four guys don't like ya That's what they're for and they're not standin' around in the dark anymore And the elf laughs haha ha haha ha ha ah haha ha He sees that flyin' thing He'll know what message it brings

Sitting in a room makes me feel sickened and numb Opening my eyes I see where I'm from Now lying in a room makes me dream of sighs And I hear cries and something dies amidst all the lies And nothing makes me think of sitting anymore Sitting on the floor makes me think of trees Scratchin' off silver from an old man's head Drink all my blood 'till I fall over dead Ridin' on a train nonstop up the hill Gonna chop off your arm just to stay off the pill Learnin' good manners from the guy next door Bounce off your head and punch through the floor Puttin' me on with your magical powers Goin' big game huntin' gonna kill off the flowers Turn off the lights and say goodbye Goin' out to dinner gonna eat all the sky Put on my shoes gettin' ready to swim Scratchin' my back standin' next to him Walk through the river and sail to sea Take off your brain and hand it to me Talk to the fishies livin' in the ground Went dumpster divin' look what I found Take out the trash gonna feed it to my dog Gonna climb up the wall pass through the frog Drivin' down the road in my brand-new car It runs on apples gonna drive it real far Goin' to the mountains gonna climb up the trees Goin' to the bathroom gonna go pee-pee The sun's gettin' black time to go to bed Tuck in my blankie and turn off my head I walk myself back upstairs and have myself a snack I like to watch the sunset the sky is turning black And now I'm feeling tired so I'll put myself to bed And dream of furry sheep jumping in my head

Infestation 01:56
When you're lying in your bed And you're insane and you're dead And you're walking down the street And you feel like nobody knows what to eat You are right no one does Know what to eat because They are dead just like you And they're lying in your bed too And they've taken over your mind Invaded all your thoughts They're curious they will find What you hate and give it to you Every second for the rest of your life And you're running away And everyone looks the same Their heads are empty except for their brain They are dead so are you And they talk just like me And they look like me too Maybe, maybe not You are dead I am dead they are dead we're all dead

My spirit's all dressed in black; I wonder who died Maybe an acquaintance or a distant relative Like my body or maybe someone lied About some funeral for some candy that it was fond of Say farewell to something you'll be getting soon Anyway When you lie to your friends you're confusing yourself in Many ways These thoughts never die they just meet more people And learn how to lie a little better To convince (confuse) everyone including me hopefully

Existence is futile Change is irrelevant reincarnation is necessary And karma is inherent in that Aliens exist Your lifetime is eternity longer than life itself exists Chances are small that you'll come back to this world But the cow you put through your intestines Could have been your mother or your son Time has no influence over the energy of souls But soul energy creates time in order for it all to coexist at once Death is meaningless Evil causes evil It has always existed it's no worse than good, no better Only a different opposite Positive and negative have positive and negative connotations But all they are is opposites Without one the other would be irrelevant Nothing would be good needs evil Good is relative evil is relative Perspective skews reality to smulrch one's inner workings To make it all understandable My thoughts cannot be processed by your brain Without first deciphering the code Destroying reality is as easy as pulling the trigger if that gun Means to you what it means to me

A man falls through the sky He lands on the purple ground There's a giant mouth on his stomach And his nipples look like eyes He falls next to a bouncing cube With different expressions on each face Then he walks through an arm And he falls through the rocks and he's chased by Satan And Satan goes and has sex with a Slab of meat on a meat hook An artsy painting flies by of a fish with tusks And a pig walks into an igloo

You look sad, little man What's wrong? Did your dad lose his hand? No way, how'd that happen? Was he falling off a cliff? Did he try to stop himself like this? AAAHHHH! AAAHHH! Oh that must've hurt And there goes his hand now he's falling Now he lands ha ha ha Oh that, that's terrible I'm sorry, young man Why don't you come to my house You can sleep there for now Don't mind the mouse I know it's big and I know its eyes are red And I know it's seven feet tall and it eats people at night But who cares because what have you got to live for anyway Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha
