Intro 01:19
Welcome to our EP Archetypal mess of Self-titled indulgent Quintessential intro That was Daron singing Matt plays seven strings with Frank on bass line and now Steve holds down the beat We are Taken by Vultures and hope you like us But if not, we are OK with that, (hold on now) What is that up in the Sky swoop ing down from a Bove, over head, on high Aerial Projectile We are Taken by Vultures We are taken by Vultures we are taken We are Taken by Vultures We are taken by Vultures we are taken

I was created as a simple robot and Bender Rodriguez is my name. Little did they know, I couldn't be contained and thrived on something they call anarchy And I think back but can't remember when We snuck into his grave John Larroquette will not be missing them His spine and bones we take for our own Spent my time looting and stealin’ things for most of my life hey “sexy mama wanna kill all humans?” Well If jacking on will make strangers think that I am cool You better bet, that’s what I’m gonna do! And I think back but can't remember when We snuck into his grave John Larroquette will not be missing them His spine and bone we take for our own I did not take that man’s skull from the grave So don’t look at me like I have two heads And even though he was a celebrity No one needs their spine when they are dead And I think back but can't remember when We snuck into his grave John Larroquette will not be missing them His spine and bones we take for our own

Woke up this morning with one foot in, this party never ends One of these days, perhaps I’ll listen, to my family and friends Second foot moving, I heed no warning, I must now commit Pour one for you and three for me, my whole body might just fit One step closer to being half in the bag again but it’s too late to go back! To when I was feeling fine but then a-gain, it’s never as fun no! My legs are in, headed up to my shin, now I've got to fill the gap Black out or brown don’t turn around, just dive into burlap. One step closer to being half in the bag again but it’s too late to go back! To when I was feeling fine but then a-gain, it’s never as fun now! One step closer to being half in the bag again but it’s too late to go back! To when I was feeling fine but then a-gain, it’s never as fun now! One step closer to being half in the bag again. but it’s too late to go back! To when I had a chance to give it in. You never go full bag!

Achy bones and swollen joints, I’m stuck here in this sickly room Need to find my ticket out of here One son his wife and kid, and none of them can pay the rent The bed ridden ain’t got a cent Think about myself Pray and ask for help I’d atone if anyone was listening I'm old and bored, Can't be ignored, I’ll take your reward and use it as my one-way ticket out Side this home, Geriatric throne, My cover’s blown And I hope the word never finds its way out One golden chocolate bar, and ignorant grandson to take For the fool, he’s a simpleton Toss cane, jump out of bed, and then my feet begin to dance Now I finally have my chance Jumping out of bed Josephine half dead That golden chocolate, my eyes glistening I'm old and bored, Can't be ignored, I’ll take your reward and use it as my one-way ticket out Side this home, Geriatric throne, My cover’s blown and I hope the word never finds its way out Hope they don’t find out (Joe-oh) I Hope they don’t find out Hope they don’t find out That I’m freeloading now Hope they don’t find out (Joe-oh) I Hope they don’t find out Hope they don’t find out That I’m freeloading! Old and bored, Can't be ignored, I’ll take your reward and use it as my one-way ticket out Side this home, Geriatric throne, My cover’s blown and I hope the word never finds its way out Hope they don’t find out (Joe-oh) I Hope they don’t find out Hope they don’t find out That I’m freeloading now Hope they don’t find out (Joe-oh) Never figure out Hope they don’t find out That I’m freeloading!
