Redefine Lyrics
[Intro]
Blaw-ka!
[Verse 1]
Imagine your brain as a canister filled with ink
Yeah, now think of your body as the pen where the ink resides
Fuse the two, kapow! What are you now?
You're the human magic marker, won't you please surprise my eyes?
It's in your nature, you can paint whatever picture you like
No matter what Ted Koppel says on Channel 4 tonight
So modify (Modify) this third rock from the sun
By painting myriads of pictures with the colors of the one, go
[Chorus]
I'm sick of painting in black and white
My pen is dry and I'm all uptight
So sick of limiting myself
To fit your definition
I'm sick of painting in black and white
My pen is dry and I'm all uptight
So sick of limiting myself
To fit your definition
[Verse 2]
Picture the scene, where whatever you thought
Would, in the blink of an eye, manifest and become illustrated
You'd be sure man that every line drawn
Reflected a life that you loved not an existence that you hated
So, must we demonstrate that we can't get it straight?
We've painted a picture now we're drowning in the paint
Let's figure out what the fuck it's about
Before the picture we painted chews us up and spits us out, go
[Chorus]
I'm sick of painting in black and white
My pen is dry and I'm all uptight
So sick of limiting myself
To fit your definition
I'm sick of painting in black and white
My pen is dry and I'm all uptight
So sick of limiting myself
To fit your definition
[Bridge]
Redefine
(It's a, it's a different) Pull, yeah
(Different, different, ah)
[Chorus]
I'm sick of painting in black and white
My pen is dry and I'm all uptight
So sick of limiting myself
To fit your definition
[Outro]
So, must we demonstrate that we can't get it straight?
We've painted a picture now we're drowning in the paint
Let's figure out what the fuck it's about
Before the picture we painted chews us up and spits us out
Vitamin Lyrics
[Intro]
I'm born, I'm alive
I breathe, in a moment or two I realize
That the sphere upon which I reside is asleep on its feet
Should I go back to sleep?
[Verse 1]
I'm born, I'm alive
I breathe, in a moment or two I realize
That the sphere upon which I reside is asleep on its feet
Should I, should I, should I go back to sleep?
[Chorus]
You stare at me like I'm a vitamin
On the surface you hate, but you know you need me
I come dressed as any pill you deem fit
Whatever helps you swallow truth all the more easily
[Verse 2]
We orbit the sun, I grow up
My open eyes see a zombified, somnambulist society
Leaving us as vitamins for the hibernating human animal
Do you, do you, do you see what I mean?
[Chorus]
You stare at me like I'm a vitamin
On the surface you hate, but you know you want me
I come dressed as any pill you deem fit
Whatever helps you swallow truth all the more easily
[Bridge]
And I wonder, will you digest me?
[Bridge]
Into the sleep machine I won't plug in
In fact I'd rather die before I will comply
To you, my friend I write the reason I still live
Because in my mind it's set the vitamin is ripe to give
Coming closer to another two thousand years
You and I will pry the closed eye of the sleep machine
[Chorus]
You stare at me like I'm a vitamin
On the surface you hate, but you know you want me
I come dressed as any pill you deem fit
Whatever helps you swallow truth all the more easily
Idiot Box Lyrics
[Intro]
In my head
[Verse 1]
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 that
They can etch his words inside my brain
Inside my brain
[Chorus]
TV, what do I need? Tell me who to believe
What's the use of autonomy when a button does it all?
When a little button does it all, does it all?
[Verse 2]
So, listen up, listen up closely, all
Who've seen the fucking eye-ache too
It's time to step away from cable train
And when we finally see the subtle light
This quirk in evolution will begin
To let us live and recreate
Create again
[Chorus]
TV, what do I need? Tell me who to believe
What's the use of autonomy when a button does it all?
TV, what did I see? Tell me who should I be
Let's do our Mom a favor and drop a new God off the wall
[Bridge]
Let me see past the fatuous knocks
I've got to rid myself of this idiot box
Let you see past the feathers and flocks
And help me plant a bomb in this idiot box
[Pre-Chorus]
From the depths of the sea, to the tops of the trees
To the seat of a La-Z-Boy staring at a silver screen
[Chorus]
TV, what do I need? Tell me who to believe
What's the use of autonomy when a button does it all?
TV, what did I see? Tell me who should I be
Let's do our Mom a favor and drop a new God off the wall, wall
Glass Lyrics
[Intro]
I wonder why, why
Why, why, why, why
Why, why, why
[Verse 1]
If I had a dime
For every time you walked away
I could afford to not give a shit
And buy a drink and drown the day
But your pockets, they are empty
Yeah, and mine are times two
So why not make an about-face
And accept the love I send to you?
[Pre-Chorus]
You're never gonna be content if you won'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
[Chorus]
Should I apologize
If what I say burns your ears and stains your eyes?
Oh, did I crack your shell?
When it falls away, you'll see we exist as well
[Verse 2]
Like a bottle with the cork stuck
Your true ingredients trapped up 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 different
We could uncover the you, you deny
Between two, a small discrepancy
One complicates and one simplifies
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Should I apologize
If what I say burns your ears and stains your eyes?
Oh, did I crack your shell?
When it falls away, you'll see we exist as well
[Post-Chorus]
(There you go, there you go, looks good)
Take those fucking blinders off your eyes
[Chorus]
So if I had a dime
For every time you walked away
You can bet your bottom dollar that
I'd be filthy rich by noon today
[Chorus]
Should I apologize
If what I say burns your ears and stains your eyes?
Oh, did I crack your shell?
When it falls away, you'll see we exist as well
Should I apologize
If what I say burns your ears and stains your eyes?
Oh, did I crack your shell?
When it falls away, you'll see we exist as well

I wonder why?
Wonder why
On this page you see a little girl giggling at a hippopotamus
I wonder why?
Turn the page, thank you
On this page you see a little girl giggling at a hippopotamus
"Don't

Don't say things that hurt others," said pussycat

Like, "Isn't that hippo fat?"

Or shout "Hyena, I hate you"
Hate you, hate you
Hate you, hate you

I found a sound in the house one day
If you know who lost it, I'll give it away
Away

This sound I found said, "This sound belongs to a hot ray"

A Certain Shade of Green Lyrics
[Intro]
What! What! What! What!
What! What! What! What!
What! What! What! What!
[Verse 1]
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 present lack 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
[Chorus]
Are you gonna stand around until 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?
[Verse 2]
Would a written invitation
Signed, 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 flight
[Chorus]
Are you gonna stand around until 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
[Bridge]
Green, what are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
A written invitation?
A public declaration? Yeah
A private consolation? Oh
Remember, when you procrastinate, you choose last
[Pre-Chorus]
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Go, go, go, go
[Chorus]
Are you going to stand around until 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I'm gonna grow a gray watching you procrastinate
[Outro]
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
Summer Romance (Anti‐Gravity Love Song) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm home alone tonight
Full moon illuminates my room
And sends my mind aflight
I think I was dreaming of some thoughts
That were seemingly possible with you
[Pre-Chorus]
So I call you on the tin can phone
We rendezvous a quarter-to
And make sure we're alone
I think I've found a way for you and I to finally fly free
[Chorus]
When we get there
We're gonna fly so far away
Making sure to laugh
While we experience anti-gravity
[Post-Chorus]
Anti-gravity
Anti-gravity
[Verse 2]
For years, I kept it to myself
Now potentialities are bound
And living under my shelf
Simply choose your destination from the diamond canopy
And we'll be there
[Pre-Chorus]
So I call you on the tin can phone
We rendezvous a quarter-two
And make sure we're alone
I think I've found a way for you and I to finally be free
[Chorus]
When we get there
We're gonna fly so far away
Making sure to laugh
While we experience anti-gravity
[Post-Chorus]
Anti-gravity
Anti-gravity
Oh yeah
[Outro]
Anti-gravity
Anti-gravity
Oh yeah
