Emptiness Is a Mule Lyrics

There's a place,
I couldn't hold.
Is there dark,
Anymore?
Once upon a crime,
with the radio on,
I was trampled underfoot,
by the prince of far guard.
Broadcasting to your living rooms,
two miles from Bangladesh.
I will walk your rope without that safety net.
This, this member is dismembered.
But who still remembers that we're all pretenders?

Motel coffin deposit.
Down and out on 6th street.
Oh a la japan, a la japan.

Watch your step.
(Because the mule is on empty.)
Because the mule is on empty.
(Because the mule is free.)
Square.
Watch your step.
(Because the mule is on empty.)
Because the mule is on empty.
(Because the mule is free.)

Fa-fa-fa fifth time on the mission,
Her volcano erupted.
No respect equals embarrassment.
Testosterone coward.
I'm ashamed to be a pig,
amongst the pork that fights the war,
Against the wounded and disabled.
The life I've encountered.
Encountered.
Motel coffin deposit.
Down and out on 6th street.
Oh a la japan, a la japan.

Watch your step.
(Because the mule is on empty.)
Because the mule is on empty.
(Because the mule is free.)
Square.
Watch your step.
(Because the mule is on empty.)
Because the mule is on empty.
(Because the mule is free.)

Take the time, don't you hold your breath.
Cause as the years pass by we turn blue.
You can't be absolute within the obsolete.
So don't whisper and murmur like a fool.
Pick a card from the shuffling board,
But all your kings and queens are gone.
So how the hell do you expect me to swim,
In all your filthy cesspool of psalms?

Motel coffin deposit.
Down and out on 6th street.
Oh a la japan, a la japan.

Watch your step.
(Because the mule is on empty.)
Because the mule is on empty.
(Because the mule is free.)
Square.
Watch your step.
(Because the mule is on empty.)
Because the mule is on empty.
(Because the mule is free.)

Watch your step.
(Because the mule is on empty.)
Because the mule is on empty.
(Because the mule is free.) Free, yeah.

Watch your step.
Because the mule is on empty.
Because the mule is free.
