BRAND NEW POPES AND KINGS
OWNING ALL THE THINGS
I NEED TO SURVIVE
IF I AM ALIVE
IT WILL BE MADE
AND FULLY PAID
BUT BOUGHT INSTEAD
OF BREAKING BREAD
DANTON WAKING ME
TEXTING ON T.V.
ABOUT A PLACE THAT’S REAL
BUT CLOSE ENOUGH TO FEEL
IT IN MY BRAIN
A ROLLING PAIN
OF CHURNING DREAD
INSIDE MY HEAD
GOD IS PUMPING ME ALL FULL OF LEAD
OH NO!
HERE COMES *
BUT I’M TOO TIRED TO CARE
HE CAME TO KILL THE KING
SO KISS HIS FREEDOM RING
LIKE ONLY HE
CAN TRULY SEE
THE WAY TO BE
FOR REALLY FREE
TO LIVE BEYOND YOUR MEANS
BUT BENEATH YOUR BEING
STAY HUNGRY TO BELIEVE
IN MESSIANIC THIEVES
WHO FEEL THAT FREE
POST-HUMAN BEINGS
CAN EAT AND BREATHE
BELIEVE IN BREAD
GOD IS PUMPING ME ALL FULL OF LEAD
WHAT’S UNLOADING ON ME’S FILLING UP MY SOUL
BUT I’M NOT DEAD
JUST FULL OF LEAD
IS RELOADING JEREMIAH’S BROKEN YOKE
BUT I’M NOT DEAD
JEREMIAH
JUST FULL OF LEAD
JEREMIAH

PIRATES, POPES, AND KINGS
REPEAT EVERYTHING
CENTURY 21
FLUX AND OPINION
BEFORE MY EYES
AND IN DISGUISE
BUT IT’S A PRIZE
TO SEE AS ME
UNTIL I’M DEAD
GOD IS PUMPING ME ALL FULL OF LEAD

LEARNING SO NO LOVE’S IN VAIN
WHEN NO ONE GIVES A DAMN
AND NO ONE SEEMS TO REALLY EVER UNDERSTAND
BUT YOU GLEW TRUE BLUE ALONG THE WAY
TO SHOW ME WHATS A GOOD THING EVERYDAY
I REMEMBER MY FIRST MEMORY
I WAS WALKING
AND THE WORLD WAS BACKING UP
IT WAS TELLING ME TO TAKE A STEP

IT’S JUST THE ONE I MAKE

I MAKE A LOT OF MONEY
JUST TO BE INSTEAD OF DO
ANYTHING THAT CANNOT PROVE
I’M MADE OF MONEY
I AIN’T JUST TALKING BOUT WEALTH

IN MILK AND HONEY
SOMETIMES I WONDER IF MY SOUL
HAS REALLY GOT MY FACE
OR MAYBE IT’S THAT UNDER IT
IT’S JUST THE ONE I MAKE

MIKE IS COMING BACK INTO MY LIFE
CUZ HE’S BEEN FRIENDS WITH EVERY WIFE

MIKE SAYS THE PASSAGE IN THE BIBLE
ABOUT HOW SERVANTS SHOULD OBEY
THE MAGNA CARTA DID MAKE REIGN
OVER POWERS THAT BE
HE SAYS THAT, “I’M NOT KICKING TIRES
OR TRYING TO GET YOU HIGH FOR FREE
BUT RIGHT NOW, THEY CAN BE HIRED AND FIRED
JUST LIKE ME.”
HE’S GOT A DIFFERENT FACE
WITH THE SAME ENERGY
OH, BUT IT’S GOT A NAME
E N ERGY
TO E N ER G Y
MIKE SAYS
HIS BODY
IS AN EXPRESSION
OF THE STATION
HE’S TUNING IN TO
WELL MIKE SAYS SHE CAME AND WOKE HIM
AND SAID YES, THIS IS A DREAM
SO ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS WILL BE OK
SO THEN HE DID SOME “DREAMING”
UNTIL LATER HE DID AWAKE
AND THEN SHE DROVE BY ON HER BREAK
AND THREW HIS KEYS
SHE’S GOT THE SAME FACE
WITH A DIFFERENT ENERGY
PLUS SHE KNOWS YOUR NAME:
EN ERGY
TO EN ER GY
MIKE SAYS:
HE’S MOVING OUT INTO THE DESERT
HE’S GROWING ON A REAL CLEAN SLATE
HE SAYS THIS WORLD’S TOO SMALL TO ESCAPE
SO HE’S SEWING SEEDS
HE SAYS, “I DON’T FEEL LIKE FEELING THIS
AND I THINK I’D NEED A HYPNOTIST
TO KNOCK ME DOWN AND OUT
SO I CAN SLEEP.”
THIS IS THE SAME PLACE
WITH A DIFFERENT ENERGY:
A VICTIM OF TIME AND AGE:
EN ERGY

BUT WE’RE NOT BLEEDING OUT
BECAUSE WE’RE REALLY TUNING IN
UHHHHH
SO COME UP TO ME
QUICKLY BABY
AND WHISPER IN MY EAR
AND RELEVATE SOME PROPHESY
BUT MAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR

WITHOUT A NAME
PSYCHIC PAIN
FEELINGS YOU CANNOT EXPRESS
PSYCHIC PAIN
I’M CRYING
IN MY MIND
I’M DYING
