AKAIDIOT

You look at me and call me I-D-I-O-T
You laugh and turn your back because I'm not like you're supposed to be
But it's not a question q question of low IQ
Because if it was, well then the answer wouldn't be me but you
A-K-A I-D-I-O-T don't know who the Hell I'm supposed to be
I-D-I-O-T AKAIDIOT that's me I-D-I-O-T AKAIDIOT

I put up with being laughed at because I put up with being me
And then on artificial someone says I'm the I-D-I-O-T
But I got motivation, yeah I pretty much love it all
To make your artificial nation stumble and fall
A-K-A I-D-I-O-T don't know who the Hell I'm supposed to be
I-D-I-O-T AKAIDIOT that's me I-D-I-O-T AKAIDIOT

I know that I'm a screw up I know I'm in a band
I know that I am up against a mighty mighty man
But I'm satisfied with being being one of the lucky few
Who'll be the ones laughing knowing that the joke is gonna be on you
A-K-A I-D-I-O-T don't know who the Hell I'm supposed to be
I-D-I-O-T AKAIDIOT that's me I-D-I-O-T AKAIDIOT

Main Offender

I'm on my way can't settle down stuck in ways of being an ass
And I got a lotta nerve that I'm ready to pass
I'm on my way can't settle down stuck in ways of sadistic joy
My talent only goes as far as to annoy I'm on my way
This is my main offender this is what I've got and it got me saying why me?

I'm on my way I get around not all too sure about what I do
I feel I've got to stop a second just to think it through and so I stop
I'm on my way I get around thought it all over and now I spit it out
When I spit, I spit on those that I care less about I'm on my way
This is my main offender this is what I've got and it got me saying why me?
I'm on my way

Hate To Say I Told You So

Do what I want because I can and if I don't because I wanna
Be ignored by the stiff and the bored because I'm gonna
Spit and retrieve because I give and receive because I wanna
Gonna get through your head what the mystery man said because I'm gonna
Hate to say I told you so alright, come on do believe I told you so

Now it's all out and you know because I wanted to
Turn my back on the rot that's been planning the plot because I'm gonna
No need for me to wait because I wanna
No need two, three too late because I'm gonna
Hate to say I told you so alright, come on do believe I told you so

Do what I please, gonna spread the disease because I wanna
Gonna call all the shots for the nos and the nots because I wanna
Ask me once I'll answer twice because what I know I'll tell because I wanna
Sound device and lots of ice I'll spell my name out loud because I wanna
Hate to say I told you so alright, come on do believe I told you so

Walk Idiot Walk

Well, is it true what they say about it they say it's new but I have to doubt it
And then they tell you everything about it had enough?
I got some people saying this way I got some people saying that way
I got some people saying there's no way ain't it tough?

See the idiot walk see the idiot talk
See the idiot chalk up his name on the blackboard
See the robot walk see the robot talk
See the robot write up his name on the ballot
They say this is all I need to get by the truth is it's a lie

Well, is it true what they say about it you oughta do what I do and doubt it
He won and now he's gonna do something about it ain't it sad?
And if you don't wanna feel like a putz collect the clues and connect the dots
You'll see the pattern that is bursting your bubble and it's bad

They say this is all I need to get by the truth is it's a lie
This is what it boils down to if you review the winning combination
Body at work and a mind on vacation who had the brain 
Where it started to sink in it was you

You've seen the idiot walk see the idiot talk
But you never learned nothing and nothing isn't over
See the robot walk see the robot talk
Still you never learned nothing and nothing isn't over
They say this is all I need to get by the truth is it's a lie

No Pun Intended

So you look for authenticity but I can see what is bothering me
The kind you want from long way back in time it's been disposable since '79
I never wanted this to end good with transmission but too lazy to send
Not going down no in no history you're going down because of me

A lot of cause to be alarmed a solid chance of an incoming harm
Put up with me or I put you away so I ask what have we learned here today
I never wanted it to stop so I gave notice and I moved to the top
Your opinion never weighed a ton and your talking never hurt anyone

And now it's time to see what you get from me
But full understanding can't be guaranteed
You say we had our fill but I move for the kill
I keep on doing it until I get everybody everywhere
People are people and they're never scared away
I say ten dead but no pun!

So you look for authenticity only to find what you wanted in me
You had a function long long time ago had a function but the thinking was slow
I never wanted this to end good with transmission but too lazy to send
Not going down no in no history you're going down because of me

King Of Asskissing

Being the King of Asskissing makes him a royal drag
And the King of Asskissing he's after me again
Bringing me his royal nag he takes every opportunity to get to me
And here he comes again don't think I'll ever be at rest
I suppose happiness will come to some
But I'll never be a lucky one still I got to keep on hoping for the best
But once again, he comes again that's how the story goes
And it's been long enough for me to know where he's about to put his nose
Sometime, someday that bastard's going to pay

The King of Asskissing says I'm the one and only
And the King of Asskissing with his constant presence, he keeps me from being lonely
He's a royal branch of lunacy that gets to me
And here we go again it looks as if he's here to stay
I've tried to beat, to pull, and whack but the monkey sliding down my back
Won't easily go away so once again, he comes again about to reach his goal
The one and only monarch with his kingdom in a hole
Sometime soon The King of Asskissing is gonna pay
