The bottom of the rabbit hole is just another head,
dear Alice, dear Alice.
You can really lose yourself by looking through the glass,
dear Alice, dear Alice.
One bite will make you big, two sips to make you feel small,
then slip through a keyhole and drown.
Keep asking for directions, all your getting is a smile,
dear Alice, dear Alice.
'Twas brillig in the slithy tove, and you don't even bat an eye, Alice,
dear Alice.
White rabbit's out of sight, and this tea will make you feel all right
until you have to move your seat.
"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"to live like kings and feed your head."
Doesn't matter who you are, we're all mad here.
Shuffle through the deck and all you're drawing is a Queen,
dear Alice, dear Alice.
Can't cover up your eyes, everything's is as it seems,
dear Alice, dear Alice.
White roses painted red,
and you wanna be off with your head.
And still the momewraths outgrabe.
"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"to live like kings and feed your head."
Give yourself the best advice but you seldom take it.
And there's much left to ask,
like how a raven's like a writing desk.
Doesn't matter who you are, we're all mad here.

The Company Dime

They found a cure for what you're feeling,
Racing thoughts and non-believing,
a way of life to keep the poor from feeling poor.
A drug to keep the masses half asleep,
and the dealer's aren't hustlers on the corners anymore.
They're selling white fences and SUVS
in superstores and on TV,
you'll never have to wake from the American Dream.
There's nothing to be scared of 'long as you can keep your credit up,
overdosing on commodities--
Well I'm not buyin'.
They found a cure for politicians
'cause around here, everybody's selling something from a soap box,
but who's demanding truth?
And there's a cure for dissent:
love your neighbor, pay your rent.
While we're out here living tooth for tooth,
yeah try and smile.
X on the dotted line,
pay homage to the shrine of greed
the supreme clandestine,
a gamble of soul on the company dime.
X on the dotted line,
pay homage to the shrine of greed,
buy yourself another title,
and stitch it to your clothes,
your worth's sewn on your sleeve for anyone
to check the label.
So long to DIY,
if we're gonna burn our cash, shouldn't there at least be fire
to torch all the suits who've taken what's mine?

If you told me that this city was too much for you to bear,
I'd take a match to every skyscraper,
dance in the ash that filled the air.
Burn up the trees in Rittenhouse,
gas the lakes at FDR,
and with one last lighter flick we're heading southbound in a stolen car.
I know no place ever felt like home to us,
let's head for the coast of South America.
I'll brush up on my Spanish,
you can work hard on your tan,
and if we never make it there, there'll always be another plan.
'Cause if you and I make it out of this alive I know
we will get the rest we've been missing out of all our lives,
put your hand in mine, time to leave it all behind.
And if you and I make it out of this alive I know
we will get the rest we've been missing out of all our lives,
put your hand in mine, time to leave it all behind.

The weather said it feels like 22,
the odds ain't in our favor,
but don't say we're screwed.
We ain't felt sunlight in a couple days,
but this basement is the safest place to stay.
So please don't go,
they'll be coming after us tonight.
Please don't go,
we don't have ammo 'nough to fight.
Oh please don't go,
if you're the last thing that I see, it'll be all right.
'Cause now the undead roam the streets
and they're scratching at our windows.
In a day or so, another safe house will get us through the night.
Let's just get through tonight,
'cause I won't let this be the end of you and me tonight.
Let's just get through tonight.
Don't worry 'bout tomorrow, we'll make it through the night.
Let's just get through tonight.
Don't worry 'bout the morning, let's just make it through the night.

I Wanna Be A Vagrant

Kerouac ain't got shit on me,
I've run out of things to watch on TV.
Quit my job, won't cut my hair,
let the locals all assume the vacant lot will lead the road to my bedroom.
I wanna be a vagrant,
sleep out under stars where no one will notice me.
I wanna be a vagrant,
sleep out on the sidewalk, no sign that reads "will work for food."
Roadside and earthbound,
you'll find me shuffling around.
I got the time and I got nothing to do.
Canned beans, port wine,
just tell my mom's I'm doing fine.
I'll tread the streets 'til I wear holes in these shoes.
I wanna be a vagrant,
sleep out in a park, let the kids trip over me.
I wanna be a vagrant,
sleep out on the sidewalk, no sign that reads "will work for food."

I found you sleeping in the bathroom,
looked like you needed a swift kick.
The party stops when you say it's over,
the last can hit the floor, you hit the bricks.
Fought with your girlfriend in the backyard
while your past and present flames all flickered out.
You said you missed the way it was last summer,
but everybody knows what you're about.
Walls can be built as quickly as you can tear 'em down.
I'll build these walls 'til I won't be seeing you around.
Those New York suburbs couldn't hold you.
The city life went to your head.
You say you're followed by a band of brothers,
your best friends wouldn't miss ya if you were dead.
When's the last time you looked in the mirror
to see past your tired eyes, your punk rock clothes?
'Cause we all know, you're afraid and all alone.
Instead of money in your mouth, it's up your nose.
Walls can be built as quickly as you can tear 'em down.
I'll build these walls 'til I won't be seeing you around.
I hope I don't see you around.
Won't give a shit if I see you around.
