A Little Less Than Evil

It's hard to live in the present when the present is this depressing

And you wonder why everything we do is so steeped in nostalgia?

Dewy-eyed for something so distinctly average

But it's the last time i felt something a little less than evil

A little less than evil

Gloopy fuck, denying the joy of a perpetual pile-on

Why aren't you smiling? There's so many people left below us

This is as good as it gets, if you squint you can see to the top

It's almost enough to get off on, James coughs then falls unconscious

One hand, still down the front of his trousers

One hand, the other grabbing clumps of the carpet

Buildings get bigger, to the point where it's sickening to ever look up

That's why I stick to the low life, surf in the sludge with the other grunts

And man, If this is as good as it gets, I guess all of this must be good

We should make peace with the fact, a little inequity never hurt any one

One hand, still down the front of his trousers

One hand, the other grabbing clumps of the carpet

On one hand, another year wouldn't do any damage

On the other, I'm almost certain it will
