Big Cheese - Aggravated Mopery Lyrics
1. TCP
the barren land is torn all up
dystopian streets, broken concrete underfoot
perpetually greying skies have clouded your mind
and the toxic fumes have left you blind
to the world you can no longer see
forget about who you wanted to be
stench of petroleum, crude oil and tcp
with fuck all to blame but political greed
your ashes are swept away in a gust
remnants of a life crumbled to dust
the air is so thin you can no longer breathe
hospitals collapsed and every railway bridge
infrastructure could never last
dreams of an idyll life fade to nothing now that your
ashes are swept away in a gust
remnants of all life crumbled to dust
2. Pass the Buck
restricted by the self-proclaimed powerhouses trying to abuse
coercion tactics and malfeasance that they never cease to use
gaslight me and smother me and all your manipulative ways
you bend your own rules and think you'll get away
gaslight me and smother me until the end of the day
you bend your own rules but in the end you'll pay
the buck stops here and so does your fun
negligent flounder, your jobs worth scum
restricted by the self-proclaimed powerhouses trying to a buse
coercion tactics and malfeasance that they never cease to use
gaslight me and smother me and all your manipulative ways
you bend your own rules and think you'll get away
gaslight me and smother me until the end of the day
you bend your own rules but the end you'll pay
the buck stops here and so does your fun
you failed as a copper too, fucking scum
3. Night Keeper
you scream and thrash around
hoping to wake, not a sound
you panic and pray it's not real
so feverish you begin to feel
static deafens your ears
forced to face your fears
some kind of dark vacuum limbo
a distant shadow begins to grow
your conscience cripples your senses
depleted body defences
there's no route in which to take
for the mind to come through unscathed
drenched in a cold sweat
reluctant to face the threat
before succumbing to the dread
of the malevolent fiend
towering above your bed
4. Glass In Your Foot
watch where you're going son
cause after all's said and done
it'll reel you in one by one
you've got glass in your foot
I bet it hurts
but try not to squirm
should've watched that step cause
you've got glass in your foot
booby trapped you for a laugh
ease it out in the bath
it's all fun and games 'till
you've got glass in your foot
no sympathy for the post-millennial android
breathe some fresh air don't pretend you've got no choice
it looks like your hands are tied
take your eggs poached or fried
should've worn some shoes cause
you've got glass in your foot
you're trapped in pixel hell
you're braindead as well
your wound will start to swell when
you've got glass in your foot
digitally rendered cries
you resist the flower of life
don't forget to tell the world
you've got glass in your foot
there's no sympathy for the post-millennial android
breathe some fresh air don't pretend you've got no choice

6. Aggravated Mopery
sent on his way
then wasted on the stoop
koshed on the back
for some minor coup
"what am I to do?"
he said "don't break the law"
"but sir I've got no money
and my life's become a bore"
it's aggravated mopery
moping every day and chasing dead dreams
this routine isn't all what it seems
making up the law, rewriting policies
those fun-sponge crooks got him begging em please
they won't admit it
authority fantasy
but you can smell it
some'll do the dirt for free
mopers will shit it
weakened society
normalise the hate
widespread infamy
they won't admit it
authority fantasy
but you can smell it
some'll do the dirt for free
mopers will shit it
weakened society
normalise the hate
"someone's got it in for me"
it's aggravated mopery
