Everyday Violence

Woke up with a twitch in my eye
I don't know why I bought a
Sombrero
I’m sure that
It made a lotta sense back then
When I was
An altogether different person
Woke up with a twitch in my eye
I don't know why I did it
OH GOD NO
Nothing works the way that it's supposed to work
Nobody's the way that they're supposed to be
Woke up in the middle of the night
I'm steeling myself for some
FRESH NEW HELL
Everyday I get a little more violent
Everyday I get a little less sure
That-that-that everything'll be all right and
That the gallery will deem me pure (uh-huh)
Everybody knows how everything works all of the time
Until a failure of systems catches them unawares
Let me be clear about my position right here right now:
I'm very upset, think that someone should do somethin' about it
And it doesn't really mean a thing
[Multiple voices sing simultaneously here. It is up to YOU to solve the lyrical mystery. Good luck!]
And those who see the light
They're out in the street
They're out in the street
Cuz they know
Every day I get a little more violent

Semper Fi

There's the man in my pocket
And he's jackin' all my cash
He's gonna give it to a piggy
To throw some lives in the trash
Like you're a motherfucking child
No allowance and here's why
I'd rather spend it all on drugs
And chop your head off
Semper fi
Semper fi
Semper fi
Pledge allegiance to comply
I promise to honor myself and no one else so
Semper fI
Okay
It doesn't matter much if I go to war
As long as I choose my own enemy
I'll fight evermore, I've got time
A little self-worship, it can't really hurt
It's like
Money in the bank
With each and every spank
I rest my case your honor
Semper fi
Semper fi
Semper fi
Semper fi
'merican as apple pie
Semper fi
Semper fi
Gonna make your momma cry
Semper fi
Semper fi
Anybody home, McFly?
Semper fi
Semper fi
An offer you can't deny
Semper fi
Semper fi
We will kill you 'til you die
Semper fi
Semper fi
Pledge allegiance to comply
I promise to honor myself and no one else so
Semper fi
