send my checks to hell


Send My Checks to Hell
I'll burn 'em
I'm learnin'
it's you that earn 'em
you framed me with the Devil, I'm learnin'
I'm burnin'
Haven't you tell?


One of these days
and it won't be long
the Devil's gonna look
He's gonna see he was wrong
and He'll send for you
like He sent for me.


I'll be comin' up,
you'll be goin' down.
You'll look at me
like you know this sound
it's these two words-
followed by these three.


Send My Checks to Hell
I'll burn 'em
I'm learnin'
it's you that earn 'em
you framed me with the Devil, I'm learnin'
I'm burnin'
Haven't you tell?


The lies that you told
the hands that you held-
your story's not old,
we all know it well.
Now shut the heck up
this songs about me.


The escape that you laid-
you turned on a friend-
it only delayed your fiery end;
now watch me ascend
right past Purgatory!


Send My Checks to Hell
I'll burn 'em
I'm learnin'
it's you that earn 'em
you framed me with the Devil, I'm learnin'
I'm burnin'
And I'm gonna tell.


Send My Checks to Hell


Send My Checks to Hell
I'll burn 'em
I'm learnin'
it's you that earn 'em
you framed me with the Devil, I'm burnin'
oh oh I'm burnin'
You'll be burnin' as well.


What's that sound?
Send My Checks to Hell.

 

 

Too Late For Space

tah!


You're never too late.


Or so you thought
from where you were coming
It' be easy to breathe
breezy to float
and merely a place.


You assumed
by arriving safe yesterday
before "midnight"
that we could succeed.


Too Late For Space-
Who knew you could be
too late to seed
this unwelcome expanse?
We wanted to milk it
The old Milky Way.
We must've been crazy;
no, wait- born to die!


Beyond this-
There is just beyond now-
At least we can be
as beyond as we seem.


But right here on Earth-
they say Terra Firma-
There's nothing so sweet
as being ordinary, eh! eh! eh! eh! eh!


Too Late For Space,
Too Late for me.
We're Too Late for you
It's simply time.


Too Late For Space.

 

Going Into Space


Well, I remember back in 2000 and eighty,
when I was a little baby
my momma told me “son,” I was soon to leave her
but she didn’t mean dyin’
no she meant , goin’ inta space.

Goin’ into space, we were
goin’ into space
me and them
all together, er.
And I wasn’t afraid of goin' into space
I’d been hearin’ about it long as I could remember , so
it was time for the goin to go…..…

Well a rocket ship
(rocket ship)
blast off, early in the month of may
(using the old earth calender
may month)
It made it past Mars
(I remember the old earth calender)
When we travelled, got to the next
system
thats when we began to stop countin’ days.

It’s Amazing how I know nothing about astronomy
But I’m living far from the planet where I was born
and I got no great involvement in our
local global economy
I just wanna spend a weekend at the shore.

But we were goin’ into space,
we were goin’ into space
Like it or not you had to face what you were going to become
a sort of ambassador or refuge but no sort of
short term visitor
to another planet where you were very likely to die-ie.
You could forget about being buried
on your home planet
all those spaces are booked up till 3000 and
forty-three.
That’s when they dig up the remains and they shift into
the new schedule,
the new occupants / the old ones become-

FUEL;

fuel, yeah fuel you can
look forward to becoming fuel
and then this here planet’ll be your
home planet after all.
You’re there so your remains could claim
your new planet
for all the people from your planet
or some other planet after all
Goin into space, we were goin into space,
goin’, and not comin’ back…
