Track Name: Big Ol' Robot
Big ol' robot
Stomping 'round the town
Don't let those motherfuckers take you down
Big ol' robot
Save the human race
And send those ugly bug monsters back to space

I know that you can do it
With your laser sword
And your bigass laser gun
I pray oh lord
You are invincible
You are the will of man!
Born from a fever dream and made in Japan

Big ol' robot
Fight the righteous fight
You can protect us all with your fearsome might
Big ol' robot
Hero to us all
Mankind is doomed if you fall

Only you can save us
I know that you can win
You're the human champion
You'll cleanse us of our since
You are the strongest
You are the best
With rayguns in your eyes and missiles on your chest

Big ol' robot, big god damn robot
Please don't step on my house
Track Name: Clone Girl
There's a girl that I want to see
But there's a moon apart between her and me
While I'm down walking in the street
She's stomping around on angel feet
She's so mean to me, she acts so rude
But just because she was made in a tube
Doesn't mean I won't treat her nice
Or marvel over every gene she's had spliced

Oh what I'd do to please her, just to touch her for a while
I'd end it all just to see her smile

Hey pretty clone girl, won't you be mine?
If you ever leave me I'll replace you every time
Love like ours comes made to order
Release yourself and erase our borders
I'd melt in your arms
I'm a victim of your charms

She's a thing that don't want to be
I think that she is number three
It's a cold cold world that she sees
Blame human instrumentality
A mind of water and of light
Struggling with an aimless fight
To bring about the final day
When all the pain will go away

Oh how I'd love to try
Just to make her laugh
I'd get her off of this dead-end path

Hey pretty clone girl, won't you be mine?
If you ever leave me I'll replace you every time
Love like ours comes made to order
Release yourself and erase our borders
I'd melt in your arms
I'm a victim of your charms

Oh what I'd do to please her, just to touch her for a while
I'd end it all just to see her smile

Hey pretty clone girl, won't you be mine?
If you ever leave me I'll replace you every time
Love like ours comes made to order
Release yourself and erase our borders
I'd melt in your arms
I'm a victim of your charms

Track Name: Be My Spud
Fresh potato in the mail
I'm gonna mail you a fresh potato
Gonna mail you a spud
'Cause I'm a monkey's uncle

Scratch my head and miss the trees
I'm feeling so alone
I'd send you more potatoes
If you'd call me on the phone
I don't have a lot to give but I can give you love
And every night I'll think of you and mail you a spud

I love you like a monkey should
You make me feel so nice
The television lies and the people cry
I just want to be swinging by your side
Won't you be my potato baby?
Won't you be my spud?
I say won't you be my potato baby
Won't you be my spud?
Track Name: Monkey Monkey!
Big bright life in the future for me
I'm no prophet but I can see
Monkey's getting ground into chum
The smart get smarter and the dumb stay dumb

But the bottom line, she's looking pretty fine
The end sure sells and everyone's buying
Just make it shiny and paint it blue
Buddy have I got just the thing for you

Hey hey buddy come on and check it out
I've got soething that's gonna make you shout
They say the future is now but that's old hat
Bones and stones is where it's at
Take your pants off and swing from a tree
Kill your mama and be cool like me

Polka dots or stripes or on and off?
You don't have to think about if if you just scoff
The future looks hard so why should you try?
We've got top men on it, do you think that I'd lie?

You don't have to decide what you want to be
Jus trust in Jeus and he'll set you free
Or maybe that isn't quite what you prefer
We've got plenty more options on back order

Don't worry cupcake, this man is your friend
We've got systems and conditions from beginning to end
You don't have to fret and you don't have to cry
Just sit back and let all your troubles pass you by
We're in control and steady as a clock
You can follow the march to the banging of rocks

BANG BANG BANG it sounds so sweet
BANG BANG BANG come on stomping feet
BANG BANG BANG be still my heart!
We're gonna take it back to the start
Track Name: Me! (Why I Drink)
INSTRUMENTAL! THERE IS NO WORDS! NO WORDS!
Track Name: Empty Jim
Empty Jim
We had some good times
But I pissed it all away
Empty Jim
Lying around on the fringe
Of a burnt out yesterday
Empty Jim
Faithful friend
So loyal and so true
Empty Jim
What am I
If I can't be with you?

Empty Jim
What were we doing
What have we achieved?
I don't know
But I doubt that information
Would provide me any relief
Just a name
Scrawled on my hand
And glasses overturned
Empty Jim
I wish I knew
What lesson we have learned

Why were we put here?
What have we done?
How can we keep our heads
Out of the sun
Morning approaches with cruel reprisal
Sunday brings no new arrival

Empty Jim
There you are
How fond the memories
Though dim
The haze only magnifies
The smiling imagery
Empty Jim
Be empty no more
Let's see another day
Lovers flatter, friends don't matter
It's you i want to stay

Empty Jim
Why must we always shed our tears alone?
You're with me
Whether I'm home
Or if I've gone out on the roam
Empty Jim
I'll never leave you but you never stay!
Empty Jim, I won't feel bad
I'm happy we're this way
