In '98 04:52
All my windows broke in ‘98 Had them first installed in ‘95 Not a word was spoken between us I just thought about it much In all my chips It was my default basically Lost my tools, deleted all my files All my windows broke in ‘98 Man, what a mistake All my windows broke in ‘98 What a mistake Now you see me, now you don’t Now you see me, now you don’t Now you don't Now you see me on the screen Now you see me at the gate Now you see me, you say "don’t" Now you see me on the screen Now you see me on the net Now you see me Now you don’t All my windows broke in ‘98 Had them first installed in ‘95 Not a word was spoken between us I just thought about it much In all my chips It was my default basically Lost my tools, deleted all my files Man, what a mistake To be stuck in ‘98 Man, what a mistake

T.V. News 02:42
I saw the advertisement It looked oh so convincing The screen was blank of statement Just someone who was preaching T.V. News T.V. News Did you hear about those new kind of shoes T.V. News T.V. News I’ve seen them on T.V. and I know what to choose I heard the mayor’s comment He sounded oh so convincing The way he said “No Comment!” About the bits he’s missing T.V. News T.V. News Did you hear about those new kind of shoes T.V. News T.V. News I’ve seen them on T.V. and I know what to choose

Salad Days 03:31
Now you’re in heat and I’m in pain The serial never seems to end It’s not so easy being a man You see I’m only made of flesh There’s so much that I want to say I’ve kept in store for many years ...Why won’t you try and understand What I feel inside of me The vision’s bright the room is dark My mind is sittin’ at a still Emotions mixed like salad days Why don’t you try an’ choose a rhyme? My shoes are thin so is my sight Oh show me just where I can land ...I wonder if we have the time To really skip this misery The crown I wear’s not really there It’s just inside of your mind Regina Queen of all my nights Oh please don’t let me disappear Dating games and lovers’ lanes They never really grabbed my eye ...And if you looked into my face You’d think that I am made of tears No words or thoughts to really express What I’ve known for all these years Oh locked inside those dirty fears I see no need to compromise I got to go it’s cold out here I hope to see you again some time ...I wonder if we have the time To really skip this misery
