I walk 47 miles of barbed wire I drink ayahuasca just to watch the news I drank Jagger & Richards under the table And late at night I dress like Betty Grable Who do you want me to be Who do you want me to be Who do you want me to be I’m not too blind to see My voodoo remote gets all 12 channels I stuck with leather when Seattle did flannel My boy named Sue is scary to you And if you cry I’ll be flingin' poo Who do you want me to be Who do you want me to be Who do you want me to be I’m not too blind to see I eat the living dead for fun I fucked Ted Nugent with his own gun I midnight rambled with Joseph Campbell His hero trip was a croc of shit Who do you want me to be Who do you want me to be Who do you want me to be I’m not too blind to see

St Jude Was A Cypherpunk St Jude was a cypherpunk R.U. was a crank They thought they'd take down the bank As a funny cute little prank They started up a crypto clique It turned into a monster Were they trying to make things right Or just to impress Jody Foster? She am what she am a crypto-anarchist She ain't what she ain't a crypto-antichrist I know what I want — I want to smoke a blunt I don't need a weatherman to feel pretty vacant You got crypto to the moon we'll send cypherpunks to mars (rept)

The World is Flat The world is flat Flattened by fat cats And it’s gone off its tracks I don’t even want it back And there’s a lack of slack People running in packs Forming alliances Wounding with appliances Yes the world is flat Run by some entitled hacks And we can see the cracks Living in our little shacks The world is flat Flattened by fat cats And it’s gone off its tracks I don’t even want it back And there’s a lack of slack People running in packs Forming alliances Wounding with appliances credits

Speed and Weed How I wish I could still do speed and weed Paranoid listening to Let it Bleed Long letters to J.G. Ballard and Chuck Manson Kidnapped my shadow and held it for ransom How I wish I could still do speed and weed Wide awake watching the cops retreat Twin Peaks repeats with a bunch of crazy chicks Midnight the Castro for some real alt dot kicks How I wish I could still do speed and weed Be so sharp when I have to go on TV Head back home kick it with some china white Growing older man -- it just ain’t right How I wish I could still do speed and weed Growing older man -- it just ain’t right credits

On The Beam She’s so fine On the beam And she’s so high On the beam On the beam All the time In the world Well if you try You’re a lucky girl lucky girl If you can feel it You can dance forever If you can deal with it Live forever live forever Everything Will be ours From the planet To the stars to the stars We’re getting on the beam Things are just as they seem Immortality in the age of the clever Live forever live forever On the beam Live forever

Sirius-Sabo-Phriendz lyrics from original, some not used in this version He is the air controller You are the air The people are proud of their father Foreigners beware He’s got a neutron charge card He’s a mighty tough customer He’s the glorious defender of the homeland He just might play tough with ya President Mussolini makes the planes run on time Oh dig it little Arabella He’s a strong man Keep ‘em flyin’ Newspapers scream “He’s a winner.” Nobody’s sayin’ what’s being won Actor image - no content What exactly is being done? Send a little aid down south just to Kill a few San Salvador nuns Down in South Africa on civilized business Trying to get gold for guns Couldn’t be easier to know just what to do If you were holding out all the money Just a-looking for an easy going mechanic of depression And then to wind up with your teeth against the wire fence Wind up in the smallest of worlds crotch to the angriest lips One deadly little spasm in the B.F. Skinner cancerteria One deadly little spasm and what did this money buy? Keep ‘em flying
