At the Zoo
03:09
|

I was at the zoo today
That’s where they keep the animals caged
They’re nothing more than four legged slaves
They eat what they are given
They pose for the the cameras
We get to watch when they poop too
I will never let anyone control me
I would rather be six feet under ground
I will never live any other way than free
Their whole world is inside four walls
They’re just playthings, just like dolls
Their lives defined by human protocols
Above the clouds spread your wings and soar
No ceiling above, below your feet no floor
Keep going till you can’t see land anymore
I was at the zoo today
I can leave but they’ll still be caged
Sometimes I feel trapped just the same

You Say
02:33
|
|||
You say I’m dumb
and lazy like a bum
but I say I’m just taking my time
I’m like a bottle of fine wine
You say I’m homely
and that’s why I’m so lonely
but I say I just like my solitude
enjoying my drink and my food
There must be something wrong with your head
You alone are to blame for the life that you’ve lead
Putting me down won’t lift you off the ground
You say a slob
will never get a job
but I’m fine just working on my own
that’s how a woman shows she’s grown
You say no class
will get you nowhere fast
But I say I’ll get there and when I do
the person by my side won’t be you
There must be something wrong with your head
You alone are to blame for the life that you’ve lead
Putting me down won’t lift you off the ground

My Pasmo Card
02:51
|
|||
I’ve loaded up my Pasmo card
I’ve added ten thousand yen
I want to see just how far
I can go before I reach the end
I’ll buy some snacks for the train
I’ll just use my Pasmo card
It’s never money down the drain
when you eat well and live hard
I’ll get off at this station
But I won’t ever pass the gate
This is my final vacation
Whatever happens I’ll leave to fate
Don’t plan on seeing me again
My spirit will be on the train
And when you hear that rumbling sound
I won’t be too far behind
I’ve loaded up my Pasmo card
I’ve added ten thousand yen
I want to see just how far
I can go before I reach the end

Mochi Mochi
02:37
|
|||
Mochi, mochi, mochi, mochi
Mochi, mochi, I love you!
You look tense, why don’t you take a nice bath
Don’t be shy I promise not to laugh
Close your eyes and soak away your troubles
Can you feel it now, you’re turning so supple
Let’s turn up the heat and make us some steam
I’ve prepared your bed now off to dream
A good grip on my kine
I’m bringing it down
Here we go now, here we go, we’re gonna
pound pound pound!
So soft and sweet
and nice and chewy
always oiishi but
never too gooey
mochi, mochi, mochi
I love you!
Red bean or white bean, you can have your pick
make your choice now they’ll be gone quick
Or maybe you like it with matcha all green
How about filled with your favorite ice cream?

Trade My Life
02:52
|
|||
I'll trade my life for yours
Mine has become such a bore
Tired of always keeping score
I need out, show me the door
Hey, what's that I smell
Something's trapped in a well
Oh yeah, it's my dreams
Let's blow it all to smithereens
Trade my life don't waste my time
trade my life it ain't no crime
I don't shower anymore
never bother to change my drawers
I never set foot in a store
Amazon is all I could ask for

Disneyland
02:15
|
|||
When I was a girl I got third place for climbing a rope
Little did I know that's as far as I would push the envelope
Mediocre grades were all I ever got,
All I ever did was hold someone else's spot
nobody even gave me a second thought
20 years of crawling on my knees bending over and doing as they please
I've got nothing saved, nothing to my name, been so miserable at this game
I don't know how much more I can take I get crumbs while others taste the cake
I don't need no drunk ass man I just want to go to Disney Land
Yesterday for dinner I made some beans and rice
Tonight for dinner I gonna make some beans and rice
One of these days I'll get something nice
But I can barely make it trying to survive
What's the point of even staying alive?

I want to make some takoyaki and
eat them for dinner with Toyosaki Aki
and if you forget the octopus, well
takonashiyaki would still be good
We’ll top it with aonori
Add bonito, you won’t be sorry
I have to eat those gooey balls
with a whole mess of awesome sauce
I could stand there for hours
and watch them pour that batter in those pans
take those skewers and spin those balls now
Can’t wait to eat them while holding Aki’s hand
I want to eat some takoyaki and
share them with Toyosaki Aki
we’ll have some drinks and pass the time
if you want some more you can have mine

Time's Up!
03:13
|
|||
I got a call saying you wanna meet me in your room, yeah
I'm here just to work so you better not assume, yeah
I'm not the bride and you sure as hell ain't the groom, yeah
You're crazy if you think I wanna watch you take a shower
You've mistaken me for some kind of delicate flower
Time's up old man, you ain't gonna make me cower
We've been keeping silent now for too many years
Exploited and preyed upon and shackled by our fears
here comes the tidal wave baby
it can't be stopped now
Time's up on all of you
Which side will you choose?
On a movie set or in the halls of Congress
We're not gonna put up with any more nonsense
this needs to be more than just a work in progress
We've been keeping silent now for too many years
Exploited and preyed upon and shackled by our fears
here comes the tidal wave baby
it can't be stopped now
Time's up on all of you
Which side will you choose?
We're not gonna let this quietly fade away, yeah
We've got way too much at stake, yeah
Time's up we've gotta make a change yeah
Better move on over, baby, time's up
Did you hear me?
Time's up
Time's up
What did I say?
Time's up
Time's up

From My Bed
03:31
|
|||
From my bed, I can see anywhere in the world
I can go anywhere and no matter what you've heard
You can't stop me, no, you can't ever stop me
From my bed, I can take anything I want
with a vodka in hand, I'm so nonchalant
and when I leave, I've taken everything I need
I'm a 400 lb, unstoppable machine
But I need someone's help to keep my hands clean
Master of the universe, all from my bed
please bring me some food to keep me fed
No one can hide from me
there's nothing that I can't see
From my bed, I can change the world
I can bring down leaders who need to be purged
You better not cross me, no, better not cross me
From my bed, I'm surrounded by my smells
I've got bottles of lotions and jars filled with gels
I haven't left my bed in so many years, so many years
I'm a 400 lb, unstoppable machine
But I need someone's help to keep my hands clean
Master of the universe, all from my bed
please bring me some food to keep me fed
No one can hide from me
there's nothing that I can't see

I don’t wanna be your girlfriend
I don’t wanna be your maid
My life has reached dead end
And you just wanna get laid
I’m more than just a womb
It might as well be a tomb
What’s the point of education?
when you’re tuned out by a nation
Nihon, you have failed your daughters
Nihon, you have broken all your promises
Are you happy with what you taught her?
You will pay with all your accomplices
I’d rather be
I’d rather be
I’d rather be
Makeinu
Makeinu
Makeinu
I don’t wanna make your dinner
I don’t wanna clean your home
I won’t be holding your slippers
and waiting here while you roam
My job should be much more lofty
than bringing you your goddamn coffee
What’s the point of education?
when you’re tuned out by a nation
Nihon, you have failed your daughters
Nihon, you have broken all your promises
Are you happy with what you taught her?
You will pay with all your accomplices
I’d rather be
I’d rather be
I’d rather be
Makeinu
Makeinu
Makeinu
I can make a speech in the Diet
You can shower me with your jeers
You can try to keep me quiet
I swear you’ll be the one in tears
I’m more than just a womb
It might as well be a tomb
What’s the point of education?
when you’re tuned out by a nation
Nihon, you have failed your daughters
Nihon, you have broken all your promises
Are you happy with what you taught her?
You will pay with all your accomplices
I’d rather be
I’d rather be
I’d rather be

Stop Walking Over Me
02:23
|
|||
I would appreciate it if you would stop
walking all over me
If my past history has caused you any shame
Don't throw it in my face
You need to stop walking all over
the people you're supposed to love
If you don't stop treating people this way
You're going to die alone
and no one's going to give a damn
including me
I just bought you a birthday gift
Now I'm going to watch what you say
I hope you think twice about walking over me
Because I'll be on my way
You need to stop walking all over
the people you're supposed to love
If you don't stop treating people this way
You're going to die alone
and no one's going to give a damn
including me

You Gotta Try Harder
03:08
|
|||
I know it's tough but you gotta keep your chin up
It's always rough when everything you do sucks
Your getting old and your prospects don't look too good
You're not the first one to be misunderstood
You gotta try harder
I wanna hear the splash when your feet hits the water
You gotta try harder
I wanna hear the splash when your feet hits the water
You gotta try harder
Just stand outside and wait for a lightning strike
Change your fortune if you can survive
if nothing gets better well don't be surprised
that kind of luck only happens in primetime
Take a rope, take a knife, or take a gun
Or take a trip, and follow me, we'll chase the rising sun
Open your eyes and take a good look around you
Don't you see that I'm standing right beside you
Wherever you go, that's where I'll be going too
Let's take that first step and start on something brand new
Chorus
