My Name Is Starship Cobain

VERSE 1

My name is Starship Cobain and I’m from Washington State

The capitalist kiss of death is something I fucking hate

Lost my job at the Amazon warehouse, tossed out like trash

Now I live check-to-check by slaving away for Door Dash

I can deal with my pain with a roll of medical Mary-Jane

I’d smoke that shit regardless of what the lawmakers say

It’s as legal as whoring yourself out in the city of Las Vegas

Until the feds catch you with your pants down playing Sega


VERSE 2

My name is Starship Cobain and I’m from Port Orchard

They should really think about changing the name to Poor Tortured

Everybody’s got a truck and they all voted for Trump

They got the bumper stickers to prove it and the sense of a tree stump

Everybody’s transmission sounds like a smoker’s cough

If you turned it up to eleven and exploded their heads off

Not much to do here but sit in line at the Burger King

And order a hundred whoppers with a tank of onion rings


VERSE 3

My name is Starship Cobain, let’s all go to Seattle

And pray we don’t get caught up in a gangster gun battle

All I want out of this city is a show with Pop Evil

Fuck around in the mosh pit with some drunk ass people

I miss the days of Nirvana and that whole damn scene

A generation depressed when Kurt blew his head off clean

There were many imitators, but none of them could compare

To the gravelly voice that made your hair stand in the air


VERSE 4

My name is Starship Cobain, what does that even mean?

Hell if I know, it probably came to me in a dream

Or maybe it was chosen by my schizophrenic voices

Because from here on out, they’ll always make my choices

The Big Kids


VERSE 1
Face Book liars who never retire
Instagram trolls looking for holes
Twitter tough guys in disguise
Big kids, big dicks, Heisman prize
Pushing skinny geeks to the ground
Reading their poetry in public out loud
Trolling them online all the damn time
Big trucks, big nuts, excused from crime

CHROUS 1
You are!
The big kids!
The hot shits!
The jock twins!

VERSE 2
All you motherfuckers look exactly the same
With your internet perfection and easy fame
Violent pranks played on those of lower rank
Suicidal wet dreams for the victims it seems
Black belts, letter jackets, everything you want
Money, cheerleaders, whatever you can rob
Counting down the days until summer vacation
We take out our aggression on the Playstation

EXTENDED CHROUS 1
You are!
The big kids!
The hot shits!
The jock twins!
You are!
The jarheads!
The well-fed!
The hand-led!

VERSE 3
Gamer Gate sexism turned up to eleven
Guaranteed your own cloud in the heavens
Guaranteed the keys to your own kingdom
Glass ceiling fantasy for those beneath it
Guaranteed a job for life on the cop squad
Even when we prove you’re just a fraud
Even when the corpses continue to mount
Even when this country starts to go south

EXTENDED CHROUS 2
You are!
The big kids!
The hot shits!
The jock twins!
You are!
The rich pricks!
The big dicks!
The groin kicks!

VERSE 4
Now you’re all alone with a fucking concussion
Everything you read might as well be in Russian
You burned all the bridges, betrayed your bitches
Nobody is left to help you remove your stitches
Football, trucks, money, and booze
Girls, weapons, so sure you’ll never lose
Shallow values and deep graves
You had it all, yet continued to crave

CHORUS 2
You are!
A dead soul!
An asshole!
Left in the cold!

FINAL LINES
The big kids! X4
