So I know what you’re thinking:
“How on earth can I get these live scorpions across the country
Specifically for the purposes of medical research,
and or the production of Antivenom?”
Well it just so happens that our great nation’s postal service
has rules for just the situation you’ve found yourself in
They made some rules and regulations under 526.5
To ensure that all your scorpions and mailfolks stay alive
You can only send em by ground mail to the continental states
So listen closely to the rules and you’ll avoid a tragic fate
Double pack your scorpions when you send them in the mail
Make sure that the interior is something that won’t fail
Make sure that all the packages say “Live Scorpion”
Cause a scorp loose in a postal truck ain't my idea of fun
Make sure that the box is strong pursuant to 522
Get good double-wall fiberboard or equivalent will do
Don’t use no flat rate boxes, ensure contents do not shift
Cuz Goddamn you’re mailing scorpions this ain’t no time for thrift
Now these rules are for the research bugs, you can’t send through your pet
For that you’ll need a diff’rent carrier ask your local vet
So be sure to follow all the rules before you send em out
Cause an empty box labeled live scorpions is NOT something I want to think about.
So double pack your scorpions when you send them in the mail
Make sure that the interior is something that won’t fail
Make sure that all the packages say “Live Scorpion”
Cause a scorp loose in a postal truck ain't my idea of fun
Please double pack your scorpions when you send them in the mail
Make sure that the interior is something that won’t fail
Make sure that all the packages say “Live Scorpion”
Cause a scorp loose in a postal truck ain't any kind of fun

Out of Steam
03:58

Lately I’ve been feeling like I’m out of Steam
Eat and sleep and work and
sometimes
I dream
Flying through the clouds and then I seem
To be devoured by the elder god who’s chasing me
Then I wake up and I find
That I haven’t lost my mind
In the madness that remains
Maybe it's just me who is left sane
Some weird asteroid fell in my well
Now the trees are shivering and
The crops have gone to hell
I had turn my attic to a jail cell
And my son up there really isn’t looking too well
Then I wake up and I find
The colors flown off and left us all behind
It didn’t mean to be unkind
But it left my poor farm and my family maligned
Met a girl in Manamooskeagin
She said something that really stuck inside my noggin
Fingluey Min-gul-naff Klulu
Reelya ngahnaggle Ftaggin
Lately I’ve been feeling like I’m out of steam
All these stupid cultists been
Interrupting my dreams
Maybe I’ll teach them a thing or two
But it’s so nice in my dread house with my ocean view
Then I wake up and I find
All the humans have already lost their minds
Waking up was a waste of time
Now I stare at my ceiling, wonder if I’ll ever be fine
Lately I’ve been feeling like I’m out of Steam
I’m afraid of the sky I’m afraid of the sea
I know that somethings gonna kill me
What will it be?
Better just to sit and wait and see...

Ghosts

Ghosts
How am I not haunted
by the flies and gnats I’ve swatted
Ghosts
Who’s voice is this flaunted
In my ear canals so knotted
It’s Ghosts.
All Ghosts
It’s Ghosts
My Ghosts...
Ghosts
Flying high above me
The clouds sit watching, judging
Ghosts
Wile the radiance of sunshine
Lies bleeding on the mountain
It’s Ghosts.
All Ghosts
It’s Ghosts
My Ghosts...
Ghosts
When will we reach glory?
Is that even the end of the story?
Ghosts
Or is the treasure only
In the memories history
It’s Ghosts.
All Ghosts
It’s Ghosts
My Ghosts...
It’s Ghosts.
All Ghosts
It’s Ghosts
My Ghosts...

F C
Charity, don’t wait for me
Dm C Bb
Cause I’m not your perfect man
I know that you’d be better off free
And I don’t fit in your plan.
And I lost Patience to another
Said she couldn’t keep holding on
By the time I finally found her
She was standing there all gone.
Just standing there all gone
Chorus
Bb C
I saw Faith wandering through these streets alone
D C F Bb
When her girl Hope left town
Bb C
She said “My virtues won’t pick up the phone
D C F Bb
And I don’t think I’ll be sticking around”
Lost contact with Grace and Mercy
When the time for forgiveness was gone
Now I’ve found myself unworthy
And I think that they knew I was all along
Bridge
C Fsus4 F
My friends and betters are slipping away
Bb Fsus4 F C
It’s better for them one and all
One by one I’m pushing them away from me
They saw me rise but they won’t see me fall
Maybe they’ve already seen me fall
Chorus
I found Faith wandering the streets alone
When her girl Hope Left town
She said “when your virtues won’t pick up the phone
Then you best not be sticking around”
Had a falling out with Joy the other day
But we've been on the rocks for years
This time I think there’s nothing left to say
There’s just too many mutual fears
There’s just too many mutual tears
Chorus
Me and Faith wandering the streets alone
When our girl Hope left town
I said “my virtues won’t pick up the phone
Then you best not be sticking around
I don’t think I’m sticking around”

Paradise Gate

the gate to paradise hangs on my wall
C G
Fae folk dancing on a keyboard
F
to type some words to me
C G
Goblins riding on a seahorse
F
Aquatic cavalry
C G
Creatures frolicing together
F
As far as the eye can see
C G
The polls of pixies are misleading
F C
To the seelie electory
Take me through the Paradise gate
that’s hanging on my wall
I wander it in a raptured fit
Like a transubstantial mall
I just get lost, through the paradise gate
Crows are squawking in a circle
And flying through a maze
They invite me onto their ritual
And I go into a daze
Crows are eating from the apple
And they offer me a Hat
One Crow begins to tell my fortune
And in the mirror a crow looks back
The ship I’m Sailing on is sinking
Hit and run by a whale
Lenin tried to pull us over
But we couldn’t hear him through all the hail
Rome is ransacked by the raiders,
Piano chords, and Bass invaders
Caeser celery Strikes back
As the banks all fall to the attack
If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here
While these visions did appear.
Maybe I have but slumbered here
While my painting quoted shakespeare
And with my visions now upended
My puck's monologue has ended
