The Land of the Living
04:37
|

In the land of the living rest the souls of the damned
In the spirit of giving I will plant what I can
Though the seeds take a while, they will sprout in the mind
In the land of the living where the dead get left behind
In the time of corona, things may grow bleaker still
You may have a diploma, they may teach you how to kill
But the way you deceive them must deploy all your wit
In the time of corona where nobody gives a shit
Follow me, follow me, to your death
Can't you see, can't you see, I'm a threat to the rest
Baby please, baby please, not today
Leave me here, it's better off this way
In the haze of commotion, they go blind in the streets
Where the blood flows like water when you stand on the beach
When you save your belongings, you are saving yourself
In the haze of commotion hey, at least you're not in hell
In the mill of the people where the rich go to play
You may see worried faces but don't worry, they're okay
They were patiently awaiting for your mask to slip off
In the mill of the people where you can't suppress their cough
Follow me, follow me, to your death
Can't you see, can't you see, I'm a threat to the rest
Baby please, baby please, not today
Leave me here, it's better off this way
In the land of the living where I spent many years
You don't know what you're missing till it suddenly appears
Like the train in the movie, you can cower in your chair
In the land of the living, put your hands up in the air
And follow me, follow me, to your death
Can't you see, can't you see, I'm a threat to the rest
Baby please, baby please, not today
Leave me here, it's better off this way
Follow me, follow me, to your death
Can't you see, can't you see, I'm a threat to the rest
Baby please, baby please, not today
Leave me here, it's better off this way

My ghost is always there
Staring in the bedroom, shaggy hair
Lips all red and a hanging eye
There'll be no sleep tonight
It follows me all day
Never chimes in, got nothing to say
Makes me second guess myself
But for that, I don't need its help
I don't remember life before it showed up at my door
I don't know what I did so wrong that I wrote another song
But today, the ghost was gone
I looked through every drawer
Even took my clothes up off the floor
Checked my phone, retraced my steps
No ectoplasm on the guitar frets
I went about my day
Said things I don't usually say
Waited all night for its frosty stare
But I guess it doesn't care
I don't remember life before it left and shut my door
I don't know what I did so wrong that I wrote another song
But today, the ghost was gone
I went to a medium
Held my hand and I felt real dumb
Closed my eyes and sat all still
Felt like a sugar pill
But then I breathed that air
There was certainly something there
Then he coughed and he rang that bell
I hope you're doing well
I don't remember life before you left and shut my door
I don't know why I waited so long to write your little song
Cuz today, the ghost was gone

A Little More Gas
02:50
|
|||
A little more gas
For the fire
A little more water
For the steam
A little more sass
For the wire
A little more what's that? Who's there?
What do you mean?
Staple gun and a Harley Davidson
Socket wrench and the stench of my fresh blood
Face shield so I can eat kolaches
Right hip in case someone is watching
A little more gas
For the fire
A little more water
For the steam
A little more sass
For the wire
A little more what's that? Who's there?
What do you mean?
Tinfoil and Domino's left over
New soil and I found a four leaf clover
New sticker, I put it on my truck
It says "I'm a bootlicker and I don't give a fuck!"
A little more gas
For the fire
A little more water
For the steam
A little more sass
For the wire
A little more what's that? Who's there?
What do you mean?
Watching my flat world go 'round
Sun is setting over town
God bless the NRA
I call 'em every day, but that is not my therapy
And I don't got no hair in face
Supercuts knows what to say when I show up with my mo-nay
A little more gas
For the fire
A little more water
For the steam
A little more sass
For the wire
A little more what's that? Who's there?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

Rewriting Your Narrative
01:40
|
|||
When you're rewriting your narrative to make yourself the good guy
Rewrite all your stories on the fly, fly
When you're rewriting your narrative to make yourself look good, right
Better not reveal that it's a lie, lie
Editing your details, no one needs to know
Perfect little person, angel in the snow
Crying to your daddy, life has been unfair
Open up the suitcase, put the truth in there
When you're rewriting your narrative to make yourself the good guy
Rewrite all your stories on the fly, fly
When you're rewriting your narrative to make yourself look good, right
Better not reveal that it's a lie, lie
Creeping in the nighttime, things are getting rough
Keeping up your story, calling every bluff
Waking up that morning, looking in the mirror
Nobody knows nothing, you are in the clear
Standing up to everyone, no one is the wiser
Digging deeper deeper now, fuck a sympathizer
When you're rewriting your narrative to make yourself the good guy
Rewrite all your stories on the fly, fly
When you're rewriting your narrative to make yourself look good, right
Better not reveal that it's a lie, lie
Crying in the bathroom, almost throwing up
Stitching back your smile, bucket full of love

If Not, No Worries
02:44
|
|||
Could you feed my snake this Friday?
I'm going out of town
Grabbed ahold of time and space and
Then he spun my ass around
Entering the fifth dimension
He could use your help
Preferably no pretensions
He only knows the belt
But if not, no worries
If not, no worries
If not, no worries, no worries, no worries
Could you do some loads of laundry?
My floor is filling up
Use my modus operandi
Here's my detergent cup
Cleaning clothes and feeling pretty
Ready for my date
If you decline that is shitty
I'll be full of hate
But if not, no worries
If not, no worries
If not, no worries, no worries, no worries
Take it away
Could you take apart my body
And throw it in the bay
Take it back when it gets soggy
Then throw it all away
Take the trash out to the trashman
My oldest friend
He's the one who has the cash and
Just shake his hand
But if not, no worries
If not, no worries
If not, no worries, no worries, no worries
But if not
If not, no worries
no wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo
wah-wah-wow
If not, no worries, you know?

How to Not Go Insane
03:51
|
|||
How to not go insane:
Zoom with all your friends
Play D&D online
I know you've got the time
How to not go insane:
Shut off all the news
Stop caring about folks less fortunate than you
Cuz sometimes it's good to go insane
Don't shy away from all the pain
Don't let it stop you in your tracks and don't look back
Just do your work and don't you dare complain
How to not get depressed:
Pat your bony back
Fortnite with your bros
I can't feel my toes
How to not get depressed:
Take yourself to brunch
Tip your doorman well
And I'll see you in hell
Cuz sometimes it's good to get depressed
Don't shy away from all the stress
Don't let it swallow up your life and drop that knife
Just give away what you've been hashtag blessed
How to not break your word:
Open up your mind
Shut your stupid mouth
You don't benefit from doubt
How to not break your word:
Open up your soul
Humiliate yourself
Don't let the coals go cold
It's never good to break your word
Don't just polish up your turd
Let them stink and improve the way you think
Cuz most effective soil is manure

The Sheep of Wall Street
02:42
|
|||
Pinch your pennies
Baby cheeks
That new soup's got too many leeks
Money shoebox
In your sheets
That new roof's got too many leaks
It's a shame it's a shame
When they call you vain
When you're trying to complain
It's the same it's the same
When the worms that control your brain
Say hey...
You're the sheep of wall street, baby
Capitalism is a pyramid scheme
You're the sheep of wall street, baby
We're all getting fucked if you know what I mean
Woo!
Eating out
In a plandemic
I guess there's nothing you can do to prevent it
None of us have the power to end it
So maybe just keep browsing reddit
It's a shame it's a shame
When they call you vain
When you're trying to complain
It's the same it's the same
When the worms that control your brain
Say hey...
You're the sheep of wall street, baby
Capitalism is a pyramid scheme
You're the sheep of wall street, baby
We're all getting fucked if you know what I mean
Woo!
Taking names
Kicking ass
Mix it up in a science room flask
If you're dying
Keep on trying
Cuz there's burgers and the chicken to be frying
It's a shame it's a shame
When they call you vain
When you're trying to complain
It's the same it's the same
When the worms that control your brain
Say hey...
You're the sheep of wall street, baby
Capitalism is a pyramid scheme
You're the sheep of wall street, baby
We're all getting fucked if you know what I mean
Woo!

Maladaptive Daydream
02:55
|
|||
I met you in my maladaptive daydream
Hung on every word without a smile
And when you had to go, then I saw it start to snow
Guess that I'll be stuck here for a while
I wandered in my maladaptive daydream
Looking for another chap to chat
And when a chap arrived, I could see it in his eyes
He was not a man but just two cats
Why why why
In my maladaptive daydream?
Why why why'd you have to go?
Why why why
Did I use up all my sunscreen?
Now I'm burning in the snow
I lost you in my maladaptive daydream
But I still cannot face reality
That would be a shock that my system couldn't clock
Cuz then I'd have to see you mad at me
I'm tucked in in my maladaptive daydream
Putting all the layers on my back
And when it starts to freeze, I'll be brought down to my knees
Sink into the ice without a crack
Why why why
In my maladaptive daydream?
Why why why'd you have to go?
Why why why
Did I use up all my sunscreen?
Now I'm burning in the snow
I'm happy in my maladaptive daydream
I don't really wanna go to bed
I've got some milk and cooks sitting on my breakfast nook
But I would rather sleep when I am dead
It's crazy in my maladaptive daydream
There is a pandemic here as well
The people stayed inside and thank god that no one died
Cuz I recently moved into a shell
Why why why
In my maladaptive daydream?
Why why why'd you have to go?
Why why why
Did I use up all my sunscreen?
Now I'm burning in the snow
Why why why
In my maladaptive daydream?
Why why why'd you have to go?
Why why why
Did I use up all my sunscreen?
Now I'm burning in the snow

Some Things Never Change
02:01
|
|||
Could you say to me
What I always knew
Everything is blue when you're gone
Could you understand
Take my bony hand
Watch it turn to sand when you're wrong
Could you please repeat
Baby it's a shame and
I'm sorry, but you're acting the same
You'll never change
You'll stay the same
Some things never
Could you please align
Open up your eye
Give a little sigh of remorse
Staring into space
Silent fall from grace
Open up your case and recourse
Could you please repeat
Baby it's a shame and
I'm sorry, but you're acting the same
You'll never change
You'll stay the same
Some things never
I was waiting in the pouring rain
Cuz you had my umbrella
I was thinking 'bout how your insane
And if I should even tell ya
Could you please repeat
Baby it's a shame and
I'm sorry, but you're acting the same
You'll never change
You'll stay the same
Some things never change

Eat the Bad Apple
02:15
|

Eat the bad apple right down to the core
The core, the core
Eat the bad apple right down to the core
The core, the core
All right boys, listen up
Come on down, strut your stuff
Don't listen to all the haters
Just hang with all the skaters
We got some work to do
We have to see it through
So come along with me
And find what you can see
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the bad apple right down to the core
The core, the core
Eat the bad apple right down to the core
The core, the core
We went down east of here
And when the coast was clear
I took out all my money
And started acting funny
Then I shed my skin
And now the fun begins
Gimme a plate of tail
I'm feeling like a snail
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the bad apple right down to the core
The core, the core
Eat the bad apple right down to the core
The core, the core
Let's go
I took off all my clothes
And capsized with my boat
I'm sinking further down
Nobody else around
I wrote a final poem
And now it's time to show 'em
You will not wanna miss
It goes a bit like this:
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the apple, eat, eat, the apple
Eat the bad apple right down to the core
The core, the core
Eat the bad apple right down to the core
The core, the core

If you see that the door is slightly ajar
(please come in, please come in, please come in)
If you see some soup on the table afar
(please come in, please come in, please come in)
Oh I try to believe
When you're there next to me
Welcome in, put your feet wherever you want them
If you see my books with the pages all wet
(please come in, please come in, please come in)
If you see my ash from a jazz cigarette
(please come in, please come in, please come in)
Oh I try to believe
When you're there next to me
Welcome in, put your feet wherever you want them
There's a spot
There is room
I got space if it's just you
If you see my hand with the scars on the back
(please come in, please come in, please come in)
If you see my drums with a clackity-clack
(please come in, please come in, please come in)
Oh I try to believe
When you're there next to me
Welcome in, put your feet wherever you want them
Oh I try to believe
When you're there next to me
Welcome in, put your feet wherever you want them

Above the Weather
03:12
|

I'm above the weather
I'm above a sinking ship
I'm just getting better
I can see your winking lip
I'm on top and you're on bottom
Staying in the air's no problem
Cataloguing all through autumn
Skies are clear, it's cool up here
I'm above the weather
I'm above the great beyond
I might need a sweater
I just did a great big yawn
I'm above the weather
I can see the birds up high
I keep writing letters
I am like, the nicest guy
I'm on top and you're on bottom
Staying in the air's no problem
Cataloguing all through autumn
Skies are clear, it's cool up here
Now I'm sinking and my rudder's giving out
Now I'm thinking but I can't say words out loud
Now I'm scared because I've been this way so long
I'm aware that this may eat into my song
I am in a puddle
I am on the ground below
I am looking bloody
I wish I could pause this show
I am in a pickle
I am on a sinking ship
I can grab a sickle
I am gonna think real big
I'm on top and you're on bottom
Staying in the air's no problem
Cataloguing all through autumn
Skies are clear, it's cool up here above the weather

This is the hill I'm gonna die on
Come see, if you will
When I've had all my fun and I've emptied my gun
And I've spent my last dollar bill
This is the virus that'll kill me
And I still haven't written my will
When the cough becomes dry, I'll be ready to die
Cuz I've already picked out my hill
This is the man who infects me
He seems like a nice enough bloke
But he hangs with his friends and they all play pretend
When they take off their masks for a smoke
These are the people I spread to
I'm quite the accommodating host
When I cough through my mask and I had but one task
When I thought I was doing the most
So this is the hill I'm gonna die on
It seemed like a pretty nice hill
It's sprouting with trees and decapitated bees
Overlooking the people mill

Summer of Self-Esteem
03:00
|
|||
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of self-esteem
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of saying what I mean
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of taking back
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of staying on the track
This is the planet
This is the system
You better step into line
And this is Janet
And this is Tristan
They're gonna leave and rob you blind
I'm going backwards
I'm spinning down
I'm on the ceiling
I'm on the ground
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of self-esteem
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of saying what I mean
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of taking back
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of staying on the track
I'm spinning through the clouds
I'm flying through my doubts
I'm sneaking on the farm
I'm causing no more harm
This is the child
This is the software
Better run and do it fast
And this is wild
This is the blonde hair
It's gonna disappear like that
I'm going backwards
I'm spinning down
I'm on the ceiling
I'm on the ground
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of self-esteem
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of saying what I mean
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of taking back
This is my summer
This is my summer
This is my summer of staying on the track

Where Is Your Dog Now? Los Angeles, California
Where Is Your Dog Now? is an alt-rock music project by Andrew Haworth based in Los Angeles. He has recorded hundreds of songs since its inception. Each album is a “greatest hits” compilation of these songs, constructed in large part based on feedback given by his mother. Haworth experiments with a wide range of genres, but most of his songs end up sounding like power-pop, and that's okay. ... more
