Avoidance Learning

Look motherfucker all I got is halfassed
sounding good lucks and goodbyes. So shit
motherfucker I'd bet poor man's dollars
to a rich man's motherfucking dimes that there
won't be too much in the way of teary eyes
and I won't expect to miss you at all if you're
finally leaving here tonight.
Will you go quietly or will it be with kicks and screams
to the prisons and the factories?
It's the shit end of an asshole's dream
and all the lies that you believe
are just a leap of blind stupidity
I'm goddamn sorry that I can't
paint you a prettier picture than that. I don't
know, maybe you can make it work fitting in
downtown with the suit and tie jerks, all
dressed up like a funeral, Christ knows that
their coffins will be beautiful. So put on
your asskissing shoes and move cause it's all
just waiting there for you.
Will you go quietly or will it be with kicks and screams
to the office jobs and families?
It's the shit end of an asshole's dream
and all the lies that you believe
are just a leap of blind stupidity
Now you've made living jokes of what were
never stupid hopes and you'd call this a waste
of time I know. You're too afraid to lose to
be of any use so go and drink and fuck like
suicide just hoping it'll work this time.
Will you go quietly or will it be with kicks and screams
to a life spent mostly on your knees?
It's the shit end of an asshole's dream
and all the lies that you believe
are just a leap of blind stupidity
Fucking hell now don't it seem like we're just keeping
barstools warm? Have we just become all
kinds of whores? It's the boring side of tragedy
that I can't stand what you believe so here's
to old friends and new enemies.
