Gas it up, pull to start, power’s on, the generator (x4) When civilizations crumble And cities turn to a barren wasteland This tiny technological marvel Still gives light and refrigeration No longer trapped in darkness Thanks to the fuel injected magician The house stays cool, the drinks stay cold Until the power comes back or we run out of gas Gas it up, pull to start, power’s on, the generator (x2) All hail, all hail, all hail the generator (x2)

Blackout (w/backups) – Blackout City (x4) No lights, no sound, no help to be found No person of authority, to take responsibility Where’d that fucking money go? Where the fuck is your backup plan? Another lie, another empty promise To pacify until it happens again Blackout (w/backups) – Blackout City (x4) 1 million people fucked while a handful run & hide You won’t show your face, a fucking disgrace Now own up to those lies You want more money? Well, eat my shit This broken system has enough cash Time after time, you turn your back & run While these communities fall to ash – FUCK YOU!

Sink Laundry 00:48
Doing laundry in the sink The power’s out and I got no choice Doing laundry in the sink Because these clothes fucking stink Doing laundry in the sink Cuz the power is out And all my sweaty clothes Are creating a stench That I can’t control What the fuck can I do? It’s really kinda cool, you just Fill the sink with water, add some soap Then put your dirty clothes in, and mix them up Let them soak, then rinse them out Hang dry them on the porch Now my clothes don’t smell like shit

C.P.R. 01:01
Coffee Pot (x3) Coffee Pot Ramen Coffee Pot (x3) Coffee Pot Ramen First, you crush, the noodles in the pack Then pour them in the coffee pot Then, you fill, the water half way up Start the brew & pick your bowl or cup Let the noodles steep, for 3 minutes – when you hear the beep Empty the pot into your packs of seasoning Stir, then cool, then eat until you’re full Now you’ve just made ramen from your coffee pot Coffee Pot (x3) Coffee Pot Ramen Coffee Pot (x3) Coffee Pot Ramen

This heat, is unreal This temp will surely kill I can’t complete a thought Because it’s so damn hot No end in sight for this Gulf Coast heat wave of shit A decade in this state I still can’t acclimate I-CAN-FEEL My brain begin to melt I-CAN-FEEL My blood begin to boil I-CAN-FEEL My skin start to crisp I-CAN-NOT Take much more of this Cold drinks – do not help Cold showers – do not help Ice packs – do not help My brain – it will melt Nothing and no one can save me from this hell Not Santa Claus or Jesus Christ or Lucifer himself I-CAN-FEEL My brain begin to melt I-CAN-FEEL My blood begin to boil I-CAN-FEEL My skin start to crisp I-CAN-NOT Take much more of this

Poor Noodles 00:30
I’m sorry you have to go through this But this storm is serious We have to evacuate I just want to keep you safe POOR NOODLES He does not like to travel POOR NOODLES He’s howling like he’s scared POOR NOODLES I hope deep down he can comprehend POOR NOODLES I only do this because I care I’ll keep you safe from harm, I swear

I cannot take this pressure This stress, too much to bare Time stands still while I suffer I can’t hold out much longer Gotta break free, pressure release The weight of this burden is killing me While everything fails & falls into ruin At least there’s a familiar friend I can count on At least the toilet works
