BEEF SUPREME LYRICS

1. The Surgeon

[verse #1]
A forest of tongues rooted deep in their sockets dry...silence
An army of eyes gazing round for some flaw to spy...violence
Twenty-five grand to reattach a retina...(in a) furnace
Twenty-five and out, and all the good it's getting you...burn this

[chorus]
I'm a pro, I'm a surgeon
Ice-cold veins, keep on working
White-hot pain, feel nothing at all

[verse #2]
The time I burned the armrest in the Mustang with a cigarette...junked it
The test that they gave to see if you were feeling it...flunked it
The latest in a series of biggest disappointments yet...waitress
Finally get it right, and there's no one left to witness it...hate this

2. Milk Of Amnesia

[verse #1]
I was hoping for a ghost, but there was no ghost, because there are no ghosts
I was waiting for a sign, but there were no signs, because there are no signs
Can't recall how the night started, but I'll tell you for sure how it ended
Jumping out of the truck, screaming, 'you want some, come and get it'

[chorus]
Stand there, trembling, waiting outside the door
This ain't the miracle that I was praying for
No, this is where the story stops

[verse #2]
I was hoping you'd wake up, but you didn't wake up, because there was no hope
I was calm and I was tough, but it wasn't enough, I could've pissed up a rope
One regret, I didn't get to beat your sister to death when she heard me
Dried up whore ain't nothing more than the proof there's no God to desert me

3. Flora

[verse #1]
You keep bleeding through the fresher paint
Foggy like the halo on a saint
You can't be in my dreams anymore
You can't walk right in through the front door
[verse #2]
Of course you'd find me, where else would I be?
Thought you'd find your way back eventually
Standing, sipping coffee by the sink
Give yourself confusion, time to think
[verse #3]
You keep bleeding through the fresher paint
Lost, well, I can tell you where you ain't
You can't be in my dreams anymore
You can't walk right in through the front door

[(c) 2012, N. Kwik, K. Watson]

4. This Is My Money (And This Is My Mouth)

[verse #1]
This is my money and this is my mouth
This is the future, you'll figure it out
The oracle's spoken, the fever is broken, no holding back, no worry, no doubt

This is the prison that we call the past
This is the flag that still flies at half mast
The half-nervous glances, the barely missed chances, the moment that just slips by too fast

[chorus]
You may not know
But I'm not bluffing, look into my eyes
You may not know
But I'm not sorry, I won't apologize
Oh, and you may not know
Just where we're headed or where tomorrow lies
Oh, and you may not know
But I do, but I do

[verse #2]
This is a zero and this is a one
This is the future, and isn't it fun?
You may see some changes, experience strangeness, don't worry, you'll get used to it, son
This is the prophecy, still unfulfilled
These are the chances for which we'd have killed
On this very day and on this very site, they say that you can hear 'em here still
