Method Of Questioning
00:58
|
|||
|
What are we if we can’t question
Almost everything that we swallow and breath?
Punk rock ethos in trapping & snapping
The rules and edits and customs you like
Identity and poverty
Economy and philosophy
Posers will be posers
And I will be one too
Because I slept, drank coffee and ate today
And didn’t completely deconstruct everything
And I didn’t completely smash the state
Just made sure to brush & floss my teeth
You’re wrong
and you’re wrong
and you’re wrong
and you’re wrong
Everyone is so seriously wrong.

(Being A) Bro
00:50
|
|||
|
Support & ballast
Strength & being
Good to your friends
And caring for them
Not being so sarcastic
But I struggle not to disparage
In growing alone I really don’t know
How people should act to be a good bro
But Franz she told me get over yourself
You’re not so fucking cool to bring everyone low
Be excellent
Spread the good news
Good vibrations
Discoloring the blues
Be excellent to one another

Metro North Trains
00:26
|
|||
|
It’s a comfort being on a train
That I really know
But it’s a question if it’s taking me
Places I really wanna go

I Miss My Cat
00:52
|
|||
|
I don’t wanna leave you
But I can’t fit you in my apartment
SO give it a couple years now
And I’ll find a space to feed your
Can’t stay here ‘cuz my father
Drives me up the fucking wall
And I can’t take this cost of living
Without family assistance
And that’s not the shit I need so please
Just wait a little longer
This life could be put together
But I think you beat around the pieces
So I, I miss my cat
And I miss when things made sense
No worries about money
Or where the fuck I was gonna live
|

Sleep Is Strong
00:55
|
|||
|
Around 4 o’ clock
I start to want a nap
But work don’t schedule sleep
‘Cuz they demand productivity
And all that shit doesn’t matter to me
I believe in more than 40 hours a week
So just sleep -
Till the floorboards join ‘ya
Till the Sun hits zenith
And the world starts dreaming
Just sleep -
You gotta quit denying
The comfort of your bedsheets
It’s gonna make them lonely
And just sleep -
Watch the house get creaky
Let your muscles fail ‘ya
Deny their march of progress
|

Money
00:30
|
|||
|
Fuck money
I’ll eat my words some day
Then my house
Then the rich
Then the shoes right off my feet
Then I will starve contented
Rich of soul
|

Bad House
00:37
|
|||
|
I am in a bad house
Where everything stresses me out
Lock the door behind my back
Make sure to never, ever, ever come back
It’s so boring talking shit
Holding my tongue
Laying bricks
For a life I don’t care for anymore
If this summer taught me
It taught me; “Go fuck yourself,
Watch out for just yourself,
And eat shit -
Lay down and die”

Long Island Bay
00:53
|
|||
|
Seashells and sunshine
And black clothes on the beach
I don’t really belong here
Kind of obviously
Standing at the shore of long island bay
Sand sinking in my shoes
Minnows in the carved beach
They’re not smart but they got it easy
Rocks skipped across the water
Not doing shit but flying breezy
But things don’t play like skipping stones -
More upended holes in why I feel alone
|
||||

I Sold Out
00:59
|
|||
|
I used to have identity
And believe in maybe anything
But that was before everything fell through
Got drugged by the comfort
Into 24 and sitting still
What happened to “moving on”?
Well I don’t even know what those words mean anymore
I sold out
And I won’t buy
That I’m punk rockin’ anymore
More a mall rat poser
But give me a shot
Of your hardest and I’ll die laughing

Mungo Jerry Lawler
00:53
|
|||
|
In the summertime
I’ll take all my hours
Commit it all to shit that doesn’t even matter
‘Cuz if you’re not wasting your time
Then you are not
Really using any of your precious little time at all
Undertaker vs Michaels at Hell in a Cell
Hart vs Austin at Wrestlemania -
This is my summer
An “Angry Son” summer
A really, really, stupid summer.
In the summertime
When the weather is hot
Have a drink, crash a car
And collect all the insurance money
|
||||
11. |
||||
|
You showed me the better person I could be
Took my shit to task and consider ethicacy
But what does that better person matter
In the dregs of my mind?
Like; “I’m a fucking asshole
But at least pretend to be kind”
Take both dispositions
Toss them in a blender – frappe
Break this brain apart
Make a gradient then cry
Tired of the tear apart
Just drink it all then sigh
|
||||
12. |
||||
|
We can’t fist fight humidity
So I just say we let it be
And not get so concerned with
What we can’t control
Just make circumstance and situation
A more attractive scenario
And walk through the rain
And talk through the snow
Be more zen – stop reading the news
Just let your hair down -
And be.

Junk Tech
01:00
|
|||
|
This Tascam hasn’t been the same
Since I stepped on its face back in ’14
These pickups haven’t really worked
Since they got installed back in ’11
Screw around and fiddle the cables
Snap the neck and bother the switches
A force-fed tuning and a fed-force playing
Wringing out the notes in-between the broken keys
I make songs in bursts of 30 minutes
Before my batteries begin to die

1988 Volvo Station Wagon
00:48
|
|||
|
I like to drive real slow through my town
And keep all the windows down
Take the safest route to my house
‘Cuz you can’t be safe enough in this car
This is the high school me
Alone in these streets
These are the early signs of insanity
I got my mom really worried about me
But it’s just fine – it’s just fine.

Hi, I'm Little King Trash Mouth. I play ridiculous and sometimes even good songs on guitar and other instruments. I've had too many monikers. Cute firebomb, red roses, ACAB, decolonized and ecological political parity. Most of this music is from manic episodes. ... more
