National Loser Anthem
["Loser" Verse 1]
In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
Butane in my veins and I’m out to cut the junkie
With the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables
Dog food skulls with the beefcake pantyhose
Kill the headlights and put it in neutral
Stock car flaming with the loser in the cruise control
Baby's in Reno with the vitamin D
Got a couple of couches, sleep on the love-seat
Someone came in saying I’m insane to complain
About a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt
Don’t believe everything that you breathe
You've got a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve
So shave your face with some mace in the dark
Saving all your food stamps and burning down the trailer park
Yo, cut it

["Loser" Hook]
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

["The National Anthem" Verse 1]
Everyone
Everyone around here
Everyone is so near
It's holding on
["The National Anthem" Verse 2]
Everyone
Everyone is so near
Everyone has got the fear
It's holding on
It's holding on

["Loser" Hook]
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

[Instrumental Interlude]

["In The Air Tonight" Chorus]
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord

["Loser" Verse 2]
Forces of evil in a bozo nightmare
Ban all the music with the phony gas chamber
Cause one’s got a weasel and the other’s got a flag
One’s on the pole, shove the other in a bag
With the rerun shows and the cocaine nose-job
The daytime crap with the folksinger slob
He hung himself with a guitar string
A slab of turkey-neck and its hanging from a pigeon wing
You can't get right if you can't relate
Trade the cash for the beef for the body for the hate
And my time is a piece of wax falling on a termite
Who’s choking on the splinters
["In The Air Tonight" Chorus]
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it in the air in the night, oh Lord, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord["In The Air Tonight" Chorus]
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord
I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord
I can feel it oh, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord
Oh Lord["Loser" Hook]
