Men comes in all colors and shapes
Place, time, dad’s cash, crotch, and your drapes
But like old pictures caged in one frame
You, them, all, end up the same

You got the reactionary,
Want things old and rusty for thee
And those who wants equality,
But don’t y’all ‘ready think the same?

[Chorus]
From this soap box, I’ll tell the story
Of comic heroes with tragic life
Who wants the world changed, for you and me
But fails to see, the depth of their strife

Call me a villain, I don’t care.
I don’t lie, I tell truth with flair.
Stand, or sit tight in your old chair.
What I say now, will give you scare.

The dreams you have when you were child.
Destroyed by world, bludgeoned and died.
That’s why you retreat to the screen.
Flash, quick, forget problems that been?

[Chorus]

To be happy, you start business
So you can smile, avoid illness
But one owner, hundreds that work
Means just one, one, one from many can smirk

So long that profit’s your magic
Many will live lives as tragic
Up here you think life is comic
But you’re toying with things atomic
(lalala, you’re fucked)

[Chorus]

Oh? So you think I’m on your side? (ha-ha-ha!)
I laughed, laughed, laughed till I die
I’m an omen, a prophet
And after those heroes fail, It’ll be my time to ride and stride

A broken heart, is far too common
Where we all start, the sorrow we summon
And, I know, how it feels, torn apart
Like it’s all science, never the art

I don’t claim humans, are perfect
Most won’t see, I admit, in fact
But that’s less reason to give up
So new, better world can erupt

[Chorus]
Seeing truth, can be, maddening
Gritting tooth, my heart’s, tightening
But don’t! Look back! to a magical past
The path forward, believe we must

I’m not naïve, I see your point
In fact, refute most, I can’t
Under the reign, of the material
Love is function, of the menial

But immortal this system is not
Written by man, it can be fought
You’ve seen creatures! bigger than it!
Love from material! can, be, split

[Chorus]

Your heart's broken, as mine have been
If only, to better world we're born
But where you, seek to destroy, this world's, material
I will free it from what’s menial

[Chorus]

Dear diary, my secret note
"Want to grab some coffee?" that’s his quote
And I turn him down, again and again
Though it fills my heart with aching pain

It's not that I don't want to go
Trust me, I'd rush to him, you know
But I'm Macaria's psychologist
His therapist, so I can't risk this

[Chorus]
Dear you, who brightens up my day
I'm just your Object Little A
Trust me, I want to scream out "yay"
So please, come close to me and stay

Dear diary, today was another session
And oh boy, I learned a painful lesson
Don't get too close or my heart will race
Tempted to kiss, but I know my place

It would be easier if you were just cruel
It would be easier to keep my cool
You make it harder by being so kind
You make it harder to keep you off my mind

[Chorus]

I’m here to make you compliant
To keep our boundaries reliant
But even if you think I'm just pretending
Know that for me, you are my everything

[Chorus]

Young man, who do you think you are?
Mere mortal, dreaming so up afar,
Struggle, crawl through grounds full of tar,
Mere peasant, reaching thrones meant for a tsar,

Show your hand, what can you provide?
A round whole, with no more to hide.
Now listen, for once, will I be your guide,
To Olympus so high, even if you tried

[Chorus]
Look at your, Value Proposition
The hierarchy, of your low position
There is a reason for Romeo and Juliet
Instead of mere servant and Capulet

Self-care, self-love, Self-actualize
What worth you supply can help them realize?
Personal happiness, life just once lived
And with no worth, a good life you will thieve

Utilities are all pure relative
None wishes merger with a net negative
For all their sake, look down
So at least none will see your frown

[Chorus]

Be grateful and look at the ground
Remain in your station, and look around
If even janitors can find a partner
Your solitude has no reason further

[Chorus]

Ring, ring! Hello, it’s customer service,
No no! I’m not the luxury brand, miss,
Yeah yeah, they think I do medicine too,
Though trade’s my thing, lightning-fast sandal wings

You can call me a liquid metal,
Cause’ my physical state is just that mental,
Nah! You can’t use brute force for this, mister,
Let me show you, the power of a trickster

[Chorus]
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
I’m the psycho in psychoanalysis
Psychopomping soul to the ferryman 
Caduceus (oh!) Magnanimous (oh!)
Symptom, Sinthome, Camera, action

My friend, be ready for the traumatic,
Coz enlightenments don’t come automatic
Like you must, experience heartbreak
To know what true love constitutes and make

Break the mirror, mere misrecognition
See chasm, symbolic contradiction
Though I can’t slay what’s not all tangible
Reconstitution, I can make possible

[Chorus]

Though no, I don’t do lullaby no more
I now help souls see terror and horror
Help them see demand as not desire
So my friend, let’s set your world on fire

[Chorus]

I have seen myself, the dark five rivers
Streams, currents, to death they all deliver
And so, I took the titan’s own burden
To build a boat, a comforting curtain

Benevolence! No such illusory matter!
Not the butcher, the brewer, nor the baker!
In Tartarus, there’s no free lunch nor dinner
But I can make you endure famine better

[Chorus]
Our fate is woven, by the three sisters,
Invisible hands, threading in whispers,
Growth, Merit, Compliance, what makes your worth!
Else, death is mercy compared to mere life

I’ve never seen a genuine kindness,
The kind given free in true blindness,
A world of only goods and services,
And every soul merely trade, purchasers

None owns their homes, but decades’ credit!
Growth accumulators, judge your merit!
These principles, our world’s only tenet
But no flesh hands can snap what’s threaded

[Chorus]

Were it up to me, I’d carve new rivers
So my wife’s fate could have differed
But I’ve no power of the Potamoi
So as ferryman, I’ll comfort your sail

[Chorus]

Have you ever tried, to catch some water?
Refusing to shape, slipping through fingers?
It’s why we forge glass, cup, mug container
So we can study it, when it’s tamer

But we make mistake, glass is not water
It’s the form we give, not its true nature
This glass is what we call signifier
Flatland dimension, an order lower

[Chorus]
Oh, noumena, beyond what we’re made for
Phenomena, we’re trapped in a stupor
As judge, I present the final order
The Real, the heart where real love, we harbor

With ease I treat lower disposition
Present affirmation, validation
With the orders, they have little frictions
So it’s enough with little injection

But you, my Jupiter, cannot be tamed,
The therapy needed, won’t be the same,
You kept leaning towards the Real order,
Can’t chain you without me being smothered

[Chorus]

You are the great red spot of Macaria
The largest storm! The order’s ever seen
Though my decree was to keep you contained
I release you, my love, let slip the dogs of war

[Chorus]
