Hello all. Just thought I'd post the lyrics to three of the songs from my first album, The Great Masturbator, for y'all to enjoy, comment upon if you like. They are the first three songs on the album with lyrics, and if you're interested you can check out the lyrics to all my songs at
www.man-likemachines.com/lyrics.html Also, you can actually listen to the songs by buying this album through iTunes or CDBaby, or by downloading any of the numerous downloadable Headphoneboy songs on my website,

Anyway, here are the three songs:
Creation Epic
after the chaos, I achieve my form:
beautiful face and a single horn.
I tear it from my skull in self disgust.
I can still see, through the hole,
my neighbors repulsed...
The Beast Man
he once was a lamb, a little living heart.
we cooked him up, we ate every part.
sleep, sleep, sleep in vain, little living lamb!
from the comfortable current between
two big sweaty hands and a solid wall,
uncolored and uncontrolled, you'll have to devour
our slowly undulating forms.
this soft parade of hours, a river of minutes,
I am the world. I am the world's
original man, the shy man.
he once was a lamb, a little living heart.
we cooked him up, we ate every part.
sleep, sleep, sleep in vain, little living lamb!
Orange
this is our call to chaos and raging torrents of self we can't swallow,
hollow though we are. orange girl, my savior, my messiah.
horrible world, my place in you is clear, my tools are near.
the fool becomes a man! beautiful world, your new bard is at hand.
orange girl, I was born to lift the lid off this world and drop some dynamite in
and lean on the plunger and write a song about how it ends.
it all goes up in a beautiful orange swirl. the end of this horrible world
looks exactly like someone i know. but i can't place the eyes,
the scar on the nose, the flames around it like a flickering halo of orange...
orange girl, do you have any idea what you have done to me?
it's awakened now, and it's too loud to ever get back to sleep.
