Anarchy!!!

Don't ask me why there's so many songs about Eastlink.
1, 2, 3, 4
I left the home as if I wouldn't come back
But little did I know it'd bite me in the ass
I miss you more than you know me
I miss you more than anything
The boy that worked behind a counter
If only we could grab coffee together
I work behind a counter too
But it only lacks you
(Okay, semi-instrumental break... I hope you expect me to do something great and fantastic cause that's absolutely not going to happen! But what WILL happen is, let me explain to you.. what am I talking about? I'm so desperate! What is happening? I should start some kinda anarchist group where we just rage against our own issues and it actually has nothing to do with the government. Because the government sucks. But my life sucks. or does it?)
Onward I think I should reflect on my life
Because I keep attaching meaning to these people
These sexy, stupid people
I don't care if you're just doing your job
Because I have to do one too
And I'd love to do you
But that's inappropriate
I take back everything I said
I take it back, I take it back (x4)

Sunday Morning
02:34
|

|
Retrieve the Sunday newspaper, Sunday morning
Blissful unawareness, I'm at home
And everything is fine
Everything's OK
Suddenly something was destroyed
I ran over to the building
Before my very eyes everything had crumbled
But the tourists were blocking my view

The Aftertaste
02:55

I could barely look in your eyes
Into such a sweet passer by
Because once you'd look back
I'd be too comforted to leave
We'll share a cake of our interests
And I'll let you have my slice
As my sugar intake has skyrocketed
Because you're what I find nice
Working a small corporate shop
Underneath a cozy blanket of benefits
But you aren't so frightened
You make do with it
It must've lasted 30 minutes
A ripened conversation
It must've seemed like 30 seconds
An unannounced visitation
I'll leave the mall with my friends
And keep you in my mind
Although I didn't spend much money
I found a great find

My Other Half
01:28
|
|||
|
I need you more than I need air
Because without you I'm collapsing
I slept in again
Thought it'd be the end
Ripping everything I had
I'd give anything not to be attached to you

Get Your Plan Today!

This one's about people who work at Eastlink.
(Imagine working at Eastlink!)
The best internet provider!
(Or just, people provider.)
Get your plan today.
(No.)
Or ROT.
(Actually I already have one.)
Forever.
(Okay.)
Oh won't you stay with me?
Underneath the moonlight
We'll take comfort in ourselves
And take each other like drugs
I see you working behind the counter
I see you wondering how many minutes remain
When do you work next? (x12)
