There was a time not that long ago, when you were around,
In front of every liquor store or pizza joint in town.
I could use you whenever I wanted to, or another one down the street.
Everyone took advantage of you for a reasonable fee.
When the beeper went off I ran to you.
It was a mess.
Boozin’, drugs and gamblin’. You were the best.
Breaking in begging, wanting to talk.
I was so goddamn tired and you made me walk.
(chorus)
I only miss you cause I hate your replacement.
And I hated you when I had to stand out in the rain.
I can’t believe I ever pushed your buttons with my fingers,
Or let your grimy mouth rub up against mine.
But now that you’re gone, there’s just robots and porn
And I can’t leave my house anymore.
No I can’t leave my house anymore.

Keep Your Distance

Plastic protozoa, pharmacia at my door,
You’re hanging from the stadiums and campaigns on the floor
Should appreciate the obsolescent choices that you sell
And my favorite liquor store and artificial smells.
(Chorus) Keep your distance. I know you’re out there,
On the telephone or somewhere in the air.
Keep your distance, I know you’re out there.
On the telephone, or somewhere in the air!
Stalking and grooming, blaming and assuming,
Waiting in the tavern to victimize your prey
Shoulda seen in in the patterns and possessive power plays,
Doctors office, baby sitters, dormitory dates.
(Chorus)
Adapting, mutating, your name is always changing,
Waiting in the shadows to occupy a cell.
Should appreciate the cleansing and the thinning of the herd,
Slow rolling ambulances, artificial hugs.
Chorus 2x
