"7-11" *

It was a cactus jelly field
But no one eats that crap anymore
It was the most convenient spot,
For the world's most convenient store..

Make your burrito,
improve you libido
We'll train your pets too
Got your hope
You can have it,
In just one minute
If you wait longer
The whole store is free

Oh thank heaven, for 7-11
Oh thank heaven

There's no down payment,
To keep you waiting
Grab yourself a 12-pack while we dye your hair
We've got the entertainment, for your entire family,
Just drop the kids off here on your way to work

Oh thank heaven, for 7-11
Oh thank heaven

There's a drive-through window,
If you're stuck on the carphone
You can watch your favorite program on our widescreen tv
We can tune your engine, and we'll fill her up with leaded
Try our new 5 gallon soda pop
We've got the winning numbers,
We'll help you with your chocolate,
We've just installed a cash machine - you don't need your bank
All insurance taken
We have all the answers
Try our new express lane

But, we can't cure you cancer
We can’t cure your cancer
We can't cure your cancer
We can’t cure your cancer

Oh thank heaven, for 7-11
Oh thank heaven

And For your convenience
A brand new location
On top of that orange grove,
Right across the street
On top of that orange grove,
Right across the street
On top of that orange grove,
Right across the street
Across the street
Across the street
Across the street
On top of that orange grove
Right across the street
across the street
across the street
across the street

"The Lawn Mower Song" *

Eight AM, the blanket's warm,
I think I need more sleep
Listening to the sound of daylight..
Eyes glued shut
Make memories, from the night before
Think I’ll lie here and ignore it

Wake up to a power mower
Fresh cut grass in the early morning
Don’t think I will wake up today

Someone said please be productive
Why can't I just dream?
The kids at school can't tell the difference
Chasing sleep but it eludes me
My thoughts aren’t that deep
Think I’ll catch up on my reading

I won't share my feelings with you
‘Cause you don't care if I do
The coffee smells,
I watch her pour it,
The things i want are so euphoric
Think that I'll go back to bed,
forget the promise I have made
I’ll worry about all those things Monday

Peace With a Little on the Side #

I spoke with a rich man,
He told me his secret
Well fuck 'em and they'd dissapear
Most men are stupid and they never realize,
They'll smile when they see you next year

Peace with a little on the side
With a little on the side
Peace with a little on the side
It's a lie to say we tried

Seems like the reason some parents have children,
These losers' got not much left to do
They give it their best shot,
They still end up failing
Tnd build another hater in you

Peace with a little on the side
With a little on the side
Peace with a little on the side
It's a lie to say we tried..
a lie to say we tried
a lie to say we tried

When I say peace,
What do I mean?
So easy to say,
But I don't believe..Now

We'll be your new heroes,
(?)
Just give us your love and your trust
We'll ruin our own lives,
So yours will seem better
And you'll be so jealous of us

Peace with a little on the side
With a little on the side
Peace with a little on the side
It's a lie to say we tried
a lie to say we tried
a lie to say we tried..
