At the best job I ever had I’m pretty sure I accidentally pissed on a rattlesnake And I’d wake up every day, freezin’ and sneezin’ And thinkin life just don’t get much better than this Trust in the sun to tell you when you need some sleep And if I’m hungry, it’s only out of pure instinct Water takes the easy route, life lessons from a creek If the body isn’t moving, how are we supposed to think? And before long you realize Ya don’t need toilet paper, Old Man’s Beard does just fine Stretch my spine, and speak my mind Slowly I start to notice they listen cuz they’re in in just the same You can dig too long, but you can never dig too deep So sing along, it’s the number one way to get dishes clean Toothpaste is for squares, no one cares if you stink OSHA’s got their spies, but we’re sportin PPG Trust in your feet to tell you when it gets too steep Keep drinking water, friends, to combat 100 degrees PB and J, some days it’s just so damn sweet Got hearts of gold, got PMA, because we got Jyoti At the best job I ever had I’m pretty sure I accidentally fell madly into love And I’d wake up every day excited ‘bout deciding That this was how I chose to live my life

Something appealing tonight about the Vista Bridge Don’t wanna dangle my legs, can’t quite go for a swim When contemplating suicide gravity is your friend I’ll meet ya on the other side of the Vista Bridge It’s a peculiar thought Blind faith when all bets are off Had to be Portland all along Where the blood would leave the body and guilt turns to God, yeaaaahhh Something appealing tonight about the Vista Bridge Don’t wanna dangle my legs, can’t quite go for a swim When contemplating suicide gravity is your friend I’ll meet ya on the other side of the Vista Bridge This ain’t your ordinary bridge Serves the world of the mortals and that of the ghostly I know we all die alone But the ghosts of the Vista Bridge won’t let you die lonely We all die alone, but don’t have to die lonely We all die alone, but don’t have to die lonely I know we all die alone, but you don’t gotta die lonely We all die alone, and we become ghosts Of the Vista Bridge Ghosts of the Vista Bridge Ghosts of the Vista Bridge Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeaaaaah Something appealing tonight about the Vista Bridge Don’t wanna dangle my legs, can’t quite go for a swim When contemplating suicide gravity is your friend I’ll meet ya on the other side, I’ll meet ya on the other side Something appealing tonight about the Vista Bridge Don’t wanna dangle, dangle too long on the edge When contemplating suicide gravity is your friend I’ll meet ya on the other, if I don’t meet you on the ledge Of the Vista Bridge G-g-g-ghosts of the Vista Bridge Ghosts of the Vista Bridge I doubt they’d do it all again

Oh I'll take blame for any of my petty little problems but I won't take blame for any of my petty little friends because intelligence is stupid when you're living in the upside down times Out words don't matter, we'll love each other 'til the end...of the world This right here is my pretty little wrap up camp song I really hope you like it cuz I wrote it real nice for you There outta be more lyrics and I might get around to writing them later Aw shucks procrastination was the least i could do literally

The gears are broken, fuck your revolutions I want resolve for the sake of evolution, cause Resolution means we’re finally done here But if you’re lacking motivation Don’t give up on anarchy it’s liberation, I find Salvation doesn’t come from the sky, but from your own mind And Jesus Christ ain’t an alibi, I think he’d be surprised By the way the terrorize their neighbors And their family, and their home No Jesus Christ ain’t an alibi, I think he’d be surprised By the way the terrorize their neighbors And their families, and this one home But when I close my eyes I can understand why I see so many friends with a shovel in hand Cigarette in their mouth, and intention in their hearts Cause resolution doesn’t come from blaming A fire never lights when you’re frozen and complaining about How the government is like a bad landlord Well I’m skinny and cold, and fucking hungry I might be broke as hell, but it don’t cost me no money To go out and take back what belongs to no one So a pox on your groceries and hail to the shit Let the beasts of the anthropocene inherit this planet We’re leaving broken and barren because soon It will be covered in food When the humans step off we can once again Eat our own food

about

This album was recorded in the eve of March due to a curious alignment in the stars. WE WERE ALL IN THE SAME ROOM! Seriously, that's pretty rare, so we decided to record The Upside Down Times.
