Aliens came down trying to find out
What life’s all about on earth
Went to the capital of the world
Brooklyn, New York City, New York
Met some hip kids who sold them some drugs
Gave them some advice on what to do
One alien mentioned they'd always wanted to try
Chicken Nuggets, the dinosaur shaped kind
One girl didn’t know where to get the dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets
But she said the best nuggets are right around the corner at the vegan shop
The Aliens didn’t know what the vegan shop meant
But they went if it meant they’d have some chicken nuggets
So they went and sat sat down and ordered vegan chicken nuggets
Aliens eating vegan chicken nuggets
They had a pretty good time
They said goodbye
They said “Thanks for your vegan chicken nuggets”
Didn’t know that it wasn’t real chicken
but they didn’t know what chicken was anyway
Oh it came time for them to go
And when they left
they got back to their friends and they said
“It was so good, we had some vegan chicken nuggets and I will wanna go back someday definitely for those vegan chicken nuggets, Definitely yeaaaaa, I’d go back for the vegan chicken nuggets.”

Lulu I love you will you come over to me?
I’ll give you all the love and face rubs you need
I just need you to make your way over to me
I know it’s hard to make it over that hill
I know you just want your own fill
Lulu Lulu Lu
Won’t you make it to me?
Oh I could be your loving Pet
Lulu Lulu Lu
Just make it to me
I could be your little companion
I’ll clean up your face I’ll wipe the eye gunk away
I’ll clean up the shit you left on the floor
If you tell your sister to behave
But Maybe I could quite all this crying I’ve made
I need you to stop leaving things like this and tell me
Lulu Lulu Lu
Will you make it to me?
I know this couch is tough to climb but I promise you’ll see
Lulu Lulu Lu
Please make it to me
I’ll be the loving dog that you need

Loneliness

I’ve been here the whole time
I’ve been by your side
You haven’t noticed me at all
I’ve been scratching at your wall
I wanna tear myself
From Here
I’m surrounded by so many folks
But no one see’s me at all
I hear you out there
You’re right in my face
Yet I’m behind some see through wall
That only I know of

I’ve been here a long time I have been
Maybe for too long
Even when I left part of me was here
Even when I left I had things here
You told me not too look too far
You asked me what I could part with
I know that I know too much
Old bands and post-hardcore music
I could feel the wheels of my parents car running
Took a big burning breath
And told myself I could run
If I chose

Frankie, you’re our poppy seed, you are everything that we ever need
Life and death leave lots of threats, we’ll stand up to them and learn how to lose
So grab our hand, we’ll carry you with us to school
You’ll teach us how to use
The change we carry to make amends and bend the ends of the time we lose
Yea please stick with us, though we’re nuts
We can be a home for you to use
A good fit, I promise it, it will be lit
You won’t have to be a lone
Frankie you’re my poppy seed, you’re everything
That I will ever need
I’ll stay with you, it’ll just be the two of us
sitting around learning how to breathe
You’re not so well, but I can tell
Inside of you is a heart that I believe
Will make come true, as people do, the dreams we all conceive
Oh Frankie, you’re my friend, you’re my heart
Please don’t leave me alone
I’ll make a point of ending
Every fear that I’ve owned
Yea Frankie, you’re our poppy seed
You’re everything we all need
Nothing to do but hope for you
To get on inside our big wandering train
There’s a puppeteer inside of here
That will make you believe someone else's dream
I’ll remember to remind you that it's all just a scheme
Ye we’re here to provide, be your tour guide, to live the life
That you have insite
So that you may be inspired to teach the love
That we give you
Yea
Poppy Seed, you’re my Frankie, You’re everything
That I need
Life and Death leave lots of threats we’ll stand up to them until we need to leave
Yea Poppy Seed you’re my everything
You’re my reason to believe
That I’m here for a reason
It might just be you
Frankie you’re our poppy seed
You’re everything that we need

Summer Camp oh Summer Camp
You’ve taught me all I know
You taught me how to shoot an arrow
And how to sail a boat on my own
But the best thing you left me with
Was this little trick that I learned
Just be nice or you’ll slip on ice
Cause mean folks get what they earn
Summer Camp oh Summer Camp
How you taught me to love myself
And to treat everyone that I ever meet
With the same love I give everybody else
And the simplest way, the only thing we’d say
That little trick that I learned
Is just be nice or you’ll slip on ice
Cause mean folks get what they earn
Summer Camp oh Summer Camp
How you made me the man that I am
Made me many friends I’ll know till the end
And the love that we’ll always own
But the best thing that you left me with
Was this little trick that I learned
Just be nice or you’ll slip on ice
Cause mean folks get what they earn

Never was in a big hurry

Moved to the cigarette city
Started school just to get somewhere

Spencer Cuddy
He met a girl from New Jersey
He might have to learn to like Bruce Springsteen
It’s chill, He’s chill, it’s chill
Spencer Cuddy
He and that Jersey girl moved in together
Got a cool cat and named him Bob
That’s so chill, it’s super chill

Got a gnome in my yard
He’s staring out at me
Staring up at the stars
Wanna know what I could be
Look at him and hes staring at me
I say “What?” He says “what?”
Look at him and he’s staring at me I say “Hey”
He Said
Looking up at the stars has got you lost in thought buddy
Looking up at the unknown has got you stuck buddy
I see you thinkin about what you could be
You gotta start thinking bout all the things that you are
Are
Are
Told me not to think too much about
What I could be What I could have
Got a galaxy I’m living in
It’s good enough, for it has been
The home for many winners
He said
“Think about who you are”

Accountable for Me

I was gonna do something you told me to
I remember when I had a plan
To go down some road I had never been
I Was gonna read some book you told me to
Something that I would like to be
But laziness got the best of me
Maybe if I tried I wouldn’t have to hide
Maybe if I did what I told myself to to
Then I wouldn’t be stuck Listenin for you
Oh I gotta be accountable for me
Oh I gotta be accountable for me
When you were young did you always get it right?
When I grow old do you think It’ll be what I had in site?
No I think I better relax now
When I say that I’m gonna do something for me
I might as well chill, let it be, what I want it to be
If I don’t relax and be nice to myself
Yea I’m gonna be accountable for me
Yea I’m gonna be accountable for me
