Uncomfortable in my own skin I am feeling so Uncomfortable Like a prickle from a pin Uncomfortable in my own car I am feeling so Uncomfortable Like a church boy in a bar Uncomfortable in my own clothes I am feeling so Uncomfortable Like a kid nobody knows Uncomfortable in my own house Like im stuck under a trap Like a poor little mouse Uncomfortable in my own skin I am feeling so Uncomfortable Like a prickle from a pin I am feeling so Uncomfortable In my very own skin Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm

Use Me 02:38
A picnic table and their lies are all that gets me through the night Don't like treble, don't like bass I want to punch you in the face Imagery and plastic smiles The picture frame on the FM dial The laundry list of things you do Why waste your time? In short: Fuck you. Touch me Tease me Just don't fucking use me. I pass the cheque, I pass the salt I pass you up and then pass out Apologies go hand in hand Inability to be a man. You stress me out, you're all coked out What's done is done, and it's all fucked up The back seat romantisized You're just a phase, toss you aside. Touch me Tease me Just don't fucking use me Fucking use me Fuck you

Gotta cut the crap, I need to let it go You saw a shooting star, I saw a fade out glow You walk on water, and you twirl your toes I swamped my boots - I screamed, you dove You dove deep, left me behind You stole my car One hand one the wheel, middle finger in the air Said Fuck you, honey, guess life ain't fair Well God's truth, darling, ain't we a pair? So, get outta my car and get into my life I ain't Billy Ocean and you ain't my wife.

I bought a trailer at Apache Junction, it's a mid-sized unit, not very big Nine-hundred square feet with two beds and two baths. It proudly sits on a concrete pad With room for visitors looking to escape the frozen we live in an icy dumped called Winnipeg Winnipeg No, it's not a prize for pirates though it sounds like it it's a real place, it's fucking cold, and it's fucking harsh. But the summers are great, no they can't be beat. That's all I got. Gonna have a beer. Wishing I was in Arizona. Yeah, I hope to be there soon. But I'm in Winnipeg. Winnipeg.

Whirlybirds 02:34
I got a big garage with a metal roof I got a fishing boat and a mobile home I got a BMW And a Samsung phone I got a master suite with an overhead fan Great big blades They'll blow your hair back, man Kinda like the whirlybird I got a good looking wife, she's as cute as can be I got a dog named Jake and he comes with me Now I read the specs and I read them right They call for whirlybirds and two is tight Kinda like the whirlybird I'll have a workshop soon, be full of tools Whirlybird, I ain't no fool Yeah whirlybird, my roof don't leak Yeah whirlybird, I just need two. A rooster on my shirt, I don't have to work Yeah that rooster, it makes me proud A rooster, that bird is tough! But whirlybirds, I got enough! Kinda like the whirlybird! (mini-solo) I got a big garage with a metal roof I got a fishing boat and a mobile home I got a BMW And a Samsung phone...
