U R The 1 05:29
Didn't have reasons to be there Had no reason to leave Bury myself in memories So there's nothing new to perceive Didn't care what your name Didn't care what your story was Just another mess in a pretty dress With a fucked up story but baby You are the one Yeah you are the one Come any closer Can't be held responsible My human response is feeble at best Penile disfunction you're just like the rest But could you tie my arms, bind my legs Cover my body with the blood of Christ While your bowels spill open oh lady You are the one You are the one You are the one You are the one Do you have a name? Don't answer me 'cause I don't really care I wasn't really there Out of body experience I was way out there though my body was here You needn't stay in fact I'd like you to leave I want you to leave, I want You are the one You are the one You are the one You are the one

Is everybody in? The masturbation is about to begin Close the door, tiny box From within the door locks The room is filled with smells of the men who've come before A quarter spent today, plus many more Hesitation, what likes beyond? Sweating, breathing, waiting The ritual begins She stands before him Two strangers meeting for the first time No stranger way to meet There bodies only inches away Yet eyes see somehow to miss May be the only way she makes it through the day Time is ending, door sliding closed She starts bending away Frantic search, currency takes on clearer value She's still bending He has not time to establish the ground rules As moments slip away he finds his foci Hands grip tightly, leans back against the door He feels her presence staring from above Who is the caged, who is observing who? Who is the entertained, doing what they have to do? One touches with false feelings The other's feelings from the hand slip away As he spills onto the floor Once again the curtain falls, no encore He is a man, and as a man he has taken As a woman, she has stood there faking He is a man He is a man, and as a man he has taken She is a woman, and as a woman, she was faking He is a man He is a man He is a man He is a man

You think you know where I'm gonna hide But are you sure your sources haven't lied? Told 'em to stay, but still they followed I tread in shit they'll soon call hallowed Never claimed to be what they've labeled me Don't speak to me I'll have no more mentors Preach to me Converting me? I don't think so Never wanted more than I deserve Just simple gods a simple man could serve When I prayed who came calling? A manifestation slowly evolving Never claimed to be what they've labeled me Don't speak to me I'll have no more mentors Preach to me Converting me? I don't think so Won't close my eyes or say a prayer There's no one listening to me up there And if I die before I wake You needn't worry about my fate In the darkness the worms will crawl Digesting what lies within my skull And so one day you too will follow Don't speak to me Don't preach to me Converting me? I don't think so Never wanted more than I deserve Just simple gods a simple man could serve But when I prayed who came calling? A manifestation slowly evolving Still never claimed to be what they've labeled me Don't speak to me I'll have no more mentors Preach to me Converting me? I don't think so

Open the door, come in Make yourself comfortable I am your MC I've got a PhD in making money Close your eyes Breathe deeply for me I love the way your breasts move relative to your position I think I love you That is, I think that we should Peace, turn off your mind And you will find you are reclining Let me apply my psychosexual innuendos My teenage-routed anxieties My educated manipulations Breathe deeply for me I love the way your lips caress my pencil tip I think I want to faciliate your inner urge for Peace, turn off your mind And you will find you are reclining This is not your imagination This is not your imagination This is not your imagination This is my manipulation I need you You want me to Take off your dress I want a Peace, turn off your mind And you will find you are reclining You are reclining We are reclining We are becoming one We're multiplying We're fucking We're sucking I'm coming I'm coming

Race of doom Race of doom Is it on, is it off, reply Is it on, is it off, reply Is it on, is it off, reply Is it on, is it off, reply It's a matter of time It's a matter of luck It's a matter of chance 'Til i self-destruct You fire at random I'm under attack Strapped in and freewheeling Flying off the track I want to be your time bomb Let me be your time bomb baby I want to be your time bomb Please let me be your time bomb baby Everywhere there is danger Absolutely for real Subliminal feelings Too strong to conceal Unscramble your program My turn to unload Unbelievably certain Guaranteed to explode Race of doom Race of doom I want to be your time bomb Let me be your time bomb baby I want to be your time bomb Please let me be your time bomb baby Everywhere there is danger Absolutely for real Subliminal feelings Too strong to conceal Unscramble your program My turn to unload Unbelievably certain Guaranteed to explode Race of doom Race of doom

about

These songs were recorded towards the end of the existence of Young Unwed Mothers (circa 1993), and was the final project I worked on with Frank Ross. I was determined to record something "good enough" for actual release, and so I borrowed a Tascam 238 8 track recorder and an Ensoniq DP/4 parallel effects processor from an acquaintance and record 5 tunes (4 originals plus a Devo cover that we routinely played live).
