Riptide 03:32
The little boy was surfing right by down the pier When he came back out his legs disappeared Stud Lou went surfing to the tidal wave When he came back out it looked like he hugged razor blades The model, posed nude for the magazine, She got torn into chum by an aquatic fiend Maybe it's morays causing the fear Or maybe Jack the Ripper in scuba gear The Riptide the riptide the riptide The great white sharks, they think you're a seal lion And if you touch the blue rings, you'll be dying Sea monsters on the map don't seem to spook Well you won't be laughing when you're stuck in their tooth Everyone loves riding on their surf boards Oh baby, splish splash splish splash you're swimming in gore Not only monster under where you sleep But they are also underneath the aquatic deep The riptide the riptide the riptide

The pains of everyday life Living without control You try to save yourself but You sacrifice your soul The blow that stings the hardest Feels like the sweetest touch You learn to live it, breathe it And miss it oh so much Those Nocturnal emotions, notions Emissions through submission Unwavering devotion And welcoming perdition Nocturnal emotions, quotients Subtraction and addiction Try your best to hide behind Behind bedroom doors you'll find The truth The world, it burns you down and You're smoldering to ash Some momentary solace Surrender to the flash Your skin is bruised and beaten It's bleeding crimson red To live without that feeling You would be better dead Nocturnal emotions, notions Emissions through submission Unwavering devotion And welcoming perdition Nocturnal emotions, quotients Subtraction and addiction Try your best to hide behind Behind office doors you'll find The truth Nocturnal emotions, notions Emissions through submission Unwavering devotion And welcoming perdition Nocturnal emotions, quotients Subtraction and addiction Try your best to hide behind Behind classroom doors you'll find The truth

Gather round people Won't you give us a chance? Cuz we're gonna show you A real cool dance Well, it's a really simple dance, there's nothing to it Doesn't matter who you are, anyone can do it Banned in all 50 states and I guess I should mention That it even violates the Geneva Convention The Mermaid Hop You'll dance til you drop You'll flip and you'll flop To The Mermaid Hop You may know The Monkey Or The Mashed Potato But if you don't know The Hop Then we'll see you later You put your hands at your sides with your fingertips out And you shimmy and you shake and you wiggle about You do a little twist in your knees and your shins And you'll be feeling it baby from your head to your fins The Mermaid Hop You'll dance til you drop You'll flip and you'll flop To The Mermaid Hop

My Lament 04:08
You wanna get to me. You wanna make me scream I can't let you hurt me, can't let your words inside me, Cuz one day I'll explode, but when you're not around; Won't give you that satisfaction. But still my heart it breaks, no matter what it takes I have to forget you, pretend I never met you. But that day hasn't come and maybe never will, But still I hope for tomorrow. Woah… But still I'm fucking here, "borracha y loca". My foolish fucking heart won't stop loving you. There will be a day--a day in forever-- That this pain will make me that much stronger Until I no longer Wanna lay down and die Woah…
