lyrics

(V.A.U.D.)

Murder, Crime and Violence
The cities on a rampage Death from the skies It is printed on the
front page Propaganda
What’s good for the goose should be good for the gander

Look here gander 2 bits Dumb shit
A Shave and a haircut
Don’t never let nobody paint my face with an airbrush
Amidst them goddamn clouds On a shirt
If the cops shoot me down I have one fear and that’s the worst
When I’m no longer around
And I know it sounds absurd You never heard these words before But My last request is
have a steady hand and film my murder for The internet
make sure that it’s clear
Otherwise the cop becomes a deer in the headlights and I become a pest

Teenage-Mutant-Nigger-Headlice
The Headlines all about my worst day are really all about my worst vice
Im a predator from krypton is what they say
It’s so hard to say goodbye to the lies of yesterday




And I will take with me
the memories to be

my sunshine after the rain

Can you stand the rain?


And I will take with me
the memories to be

my sunshine after the rain

Everybody loves the Sunshine




(Iowa Rockwell)

Living in peril
Dodging these arrows
Aimed with deadly intentions

Lost in the streets
Altered the beast
Saw no alternate endings

Pops is deceased
Saw moms full of grief
Warm heart being frozen by vengeance

Off with they heads
Ain’t popping no meds
Great escape
We hopping the fences

Walking the yellow brick
This is a fellowship
This is the cost to do business

We gon make it one day
Any given Sunday
Life is a game of inches

The cookies gon crumble
The ghosts is gon haunt you
Peep by the way that they shifting

Stop kicking the can
And work on your plan
Or else you just paying them interest

Pay me no interest
Pay me no mind
It’s a critical time
Your decision

You do the math
Add it all up
Multiply
We don’t need more division

Time is an infinite loop
Oooh
With no beginning or ending

Hahaha
Maybe I’m kidding
Maybe I isn’t




And I will take with me
the memories to be

my sunshine after the rain

Can you stand the rain?


And I will take with me
the memories to be

my sunshine after the rain

Everybody loves the Sunshine
