CHT - IOWNME 02:47
lyrics
I can’t stop Watching the TV That’s when it feels like That something owns me I OWN ME I WILL TAKE MYSELF BACK! (x2) I can’t get Up out of my bed When it feels like That something owns me I OWN ME I can’t stop Watching the TV That’s when it feels like That something owns me I OWN ME I WILL TAKE MYSELF BACK! (x2)

CHT - Wave ’n’ Rave Cigarette Man 04:32
lyrics
Wave and rave cigarette man Walkin’ ’round your town Wave and rave cigarette man Gettin’ change from up off the ground I woke up this morning unnatural awakening To the ring of the phone Surely enough to my surprise I wasn’t even at my home My eyes are heavy my back is sweaty My mouth is totally dry And these legions on my face Have left me wondering why [chorus] Father David stop talking to yourself You’re a schizo and God hates you Father David stop talking to the ground You’re a motherfucking schizophrenic Get down on your knees and Pray to the motherfucking trees Get down on your knees and Pray to the motherfucking trees [chorus] [chorus]

CHT - Rivers of Cold 04:31
lyrics
Rivers of cold flow through my brain Washing away the lingered pain Keepin’ dark just the way I like Twenty four seven always night Always night (x2) Always night in my mind Always night (x2) Always night in my mind Always night Nobody cares what I have to say Nobody gives a fuck anyway Lock myself in your dirty cage Stickin’ this prick into my vain

CHT - Welcome Consumer 03:44
lyrics
(x2): Welcome consumer how are you today? We got a blowout sale That’s soon to go away So you better hurry up And bring all your cash And if you ain’t got none then Steal your momma’s stash chorus: Listen here the world is fake And everything for granted that you take All the cold shoulders And all of the lies Gives me no place to reside But within myself and within my thoughts I am the only thing that I’ve got But within myself and within my thoughts I am the only thing that I’ve got What the people don’t know is killing them And what they think they know Is filling them with Greed and hate and ignorance The figureheads love mental impotence Keep them stupid and full of greed Like a bunch of rats fighting over cheese Buy this buy that put faith in us Everybody jump on the latest bus [chorus] [chorus]
5.
CHT - Sleep 04:20
lyrics
The corporate medias Keep the masses asleep And nobody seems to care To rise and fight is a forbidden dream No man will ever dare The CEOs they laugh and they gloat As they’re swimming in their pride While babies freeze and mothers starve And the poor continue to die chorus: There’s a festering growth Inside of my brain My joy and good will Is what he does drain He feeds on my life And leaves wilted remains He shall keep on feeding and never abstain America is the promise land Where all your dreams come true Yet again it doesn’t apply To the disobedient few [chorus] They don’t want me to do this They don’t want me to see They don’t want us to do this They don’t want us to see Your capabilities my capabilities Your capabilities my capabilities

CHT - Minduvmine 07:56
lyrics
Seem to like the sounds I hear Noise vibrations in my ear Chemicals are balanced right I’ll be good for the rest of the night Now the craving is setting in Hopefulness is growing thin Tell yourself that your life is great You’ll fulfill your supreme fate Seem to like the sounds I hear Noise vibrations in my ear Chemicals are balanced right I’ll be good for the rest of the night chorus: Self conflicting mind of mine Wants to keep me in a bind Once was up, now is down Once was green, now is brown Wasted time and wasted thoughts Will turn around and fuck up What you got Should we stay clean Or should we get high It doesn’t matter ’cause We’re all gonna die [chorus] The human mind is our greatest gift It’s up to you what you do with it The possibilities are endless Don’t be controlled Don’t be defenseless [chorus] (x4)

Suburbs Vs. Cities - Bayside Breakdown 02:25
lyrics
You’re a crack in the water tank of humanity Slowly deprived to the point of insanity An aimless disaster moving faster and faster Until the day when we all fade away We all have different goals but the same destination Most will edge by with a lack of concentration When you fail registration, announce resignation Will you be satisfied with the difference you've made? Talking my ear away, I take it everyday Apathetic feelings seem to go with every phase When you know all you do won’t make a difference You must refuse to accept this consequence chorus: And you’re talk, talk, talking way too much And you’re walk, walk, walking without a crutch Who you gonna lean on when they’re all gone Silence fills the room when you stop singing your song Make it last, don’t dwell on the past Make a point to rid yourself of all the hurtful Memories, they’ll mess you up real bad In the long run, don’t let it happen When you’re the last one with a deck of cards Dealing out disaster Will you be the one to take your time or push it faster? [chorus]

Suburbs Vs. Cities - The Noodles Made a Comeback and Now They’re Taking Over the World, Pt. 1 03:13
lyrics
I sat alone in my bedroom playing Need For Speed all day I though to myself, “I need a breather” So I went outside to play baseball on this toasty summer day When I realized all the kids were much younger than me, I dropped my glove and ran inside to force myself to fall asleep I swear I’m dreaming way too much about playing freeze tag and two touch And this is what I say too much chorus 1: It’s gotta end somewhere, It’s gotta end somehow I gotta get through this, I gotta grow up now I still love slides and swings, forget material things I guess I’ll never be the one who watches the news for fun Let’s set out tonight, the time feels right, we’ll hit each store at night fall I’ll race you up Lego mountain and they’ll send out security calls When the game turns against us, we’ll be up against the world You and me, baby, we’ll be on the same team, it’s no longer boy vs. girl So, baby, If I don’t make it, please tell mama I’m sorry I know she’ll want my G.I. Joes, but you can have my Atari But let’s not give up yet, I know we’ll still make it out alive The secret to life in this over-stressed world is only the young at heart survive [chorus 1] You and me, baby, taking over the world, with noodle at hand! But when will we grow up? When will we learn? Well, what’s the point of growing up when you’ve never got your turn? To tear it up on your own, we’ll make this city our golden throne! C’mon, honey, fuck the money! Tonight this city burns! Let’s go! chorus 2: This time around, It’s all good, I’ve got no more doubts Running shoes, check! Game faces, check! Fun noodles, hell of a check! Over and out!

Suburbs Vs. Cities - Beyoncé 02:06
lyrics
chorus: I want, I want a woman like you I want, I want a woman like you You’re built just for what I want you to do I want, I want a woman like you I saw you standing all alone, a-waitin’ for your man He was in the other room, getting play like your platinum jams Your slender fingers lured me on, I said I wanna hold your hand I grabbed you tight, so outta sight! Matchin’ up with your glands [chorus] Just then, your man came out, grabbed me by the neck He said, he said, “Get the fuck away, before you get a shuffled deck!” I backed away, but at the sign of your curves, Woo! I had to jump right back! I hit the floor, you showed him the door, and you brought me up with a peck [chorus] I’m so glad (so glad!) you’re mine I’m never gonna let you go You’re so fine, (so fine!) so mine You know I’m gonna come to all of your shows [chorus]

Suburbs Vs. Cities - Playground 03:04
lyrics
Running, I’m running, through coffee-stained pages I haven’t seen these memories in ages We hated ourselves, wished life away Never could wait to see the next day Our grandparents loved us always kissing our cheeks Just wanted to see us once every few weeks Now, we’re all grown up, can’t wait to leave Never appreciated when our mothers would sing us to sleep chorus: Now we can’t ever go back No, we can’t ever go back Please never leave me alone Without you I have no home We lived for the skinned knees, broken bones, and stubbed toes Playground memories are what get us through the most Don’t you miss when your father would butter your toast They told us our futures were bright, now all we do is boast [chorus] But, in the end, we’ll be okay Because, unlike you, we heard what they had to say And they’ll keep on teaching us until our dying day I just hope someday my kids won’t wish their childhoods away [chorus]
11.
Suburbs Vs. Cities - Switch It Up 03:34
lyrics
What is the name of this thing This thing controlling my brain Hey, Hey, we could call it jealousy But, why give it a name You could say my cravings are pointless And I could live without But why, why, why can’t we look it in the eye When it’s all we think about Well I know you’re not feeling the flow Or knocking on the door of your manager You think for yourself but it don’t count When you’re always thinking you’re down and out chorus 1: Count down… To the day When intimidation plays no part in the things you say Confidence… In what we do When all the fingers are pointing at you Once you get over yourself Do you think you could put it on the shelf Old thoughts and memories Torn, battered, and childish cravings chorus 2: What the fuck, switch it up, I can’t take it What the fuck, switch it up, I can’t tell you What you do, what you do, to me is awful And I can’t take it, I can’t take it [chorus 1] [chorus 2]/[chorus 1]

Suburbs Vs. Cities - Cyber Surprises 03:41
lyrics
Yeah, I’ve been cruising Ares I came across misscanary69 She seemed so sweet And really helped me to beat my meat, baby! We began to cyber I felt a little vibe or What felt like something I should be flattered by She helped me feel so high Now, take it from me This was no ordinary girl She lived across the world But she made me feel Better than I’ve ever felt before No, she wasn’t a whore No, she wasn’t a man No, she wasn’t 11 But she was sent from heaven chorus: She was born with a little problem She turned on her web cam And showed me her body, what a disgrace Oh shit, I never saw her face! My little angel dove was perfect in my eyes She told me no lies But it was my fault because I asked the wrong questions! Well, I set off on the first flight to Baghdad when I was just a fat lad I spent my life savings Just to satisfy my sick cyber cravings [chorus] I hopped off the plane The skies were pouring rain My girl was there to meet me and to my surprise She had two metal legs and three eyes I tried to run, but the robot girl She caught me, and she was into S&M After days of pain and strife I was stranded there for the rest of my life
13.
Suburbs Vs. Cities - P-Town 03:22
lyrics
What’s it to you What do you care Your damn voice follows me everywhere Why do you do this You don’t like anyone Don’t ruin it for the rest of us We want to have fun You screwed with my emotions Yeah, I’m fragile you see I misspelled angel in the 6th grade spelling bee So go on, act like a bitch And throw it in my face You can’t run me out of town I love this place chorus: It’s suburbia, and you don’t even know Make up your mind, will you stay or will you go When you see all your friends at every local show You gotta love it, but hell no, you don’t even know I got this friend who always spits on me But it’s cool ’cause he’s got a trampoline Yeah, I love P-Town! It’s the place to be I’d rather be here than in any big city You’ll never win No, your grounds are going down They might be fun for shopping Or a night on the town But mine’s filled with love And faces I’ve known Just come on by We’ll make you feel at home [chorus] (x2) (NO! NO!) You don’t even know (x4)

Suburbs Vs. Cities - Yeah! We’re Gravebound! 03:24
lyrics
Parked on the side of the road I’m feeling a bit vulnerable now Oh, god, what have I just done? I can’t seem to figure out why or how chorus: I’m trapped in a revolving door Fatality on both sides Now I’m down on all fours And all I can do is try I’ll try to lift myself up Before I break down… for good But I guess I must accept the fact that we are all gravebound! Yeah! We’re gravebound! I’m too involved, got too much concern Now, thanks to that, I’m fucking gone Why do I still insist on giving a shit about everyone? [chorus]
15.
Suburbs Vs. Cities - Super Rad! 08:41
lyrics
I got a small friend, Who has a fat friend Who had a big friend Who gave birth to many friends With our flashlights to the sky We waited for them to land. I’ve got two tall friends Who know my small friend Who seem to have a problem with you They got roman candles Bottle rockets for the vandals Who covered our lockers in glue. bridge: We’re on our way here we go We’re gonna take over Set it off one last time Here we come again. We were strangers And we were pilgrims Role models of the family man Pioneers and patriarchs Patriots and matriarchs Staking out the promised land Our little army We were commandos Guerrillas with decoder rings We felt some opposition From some villains Who were wishin’ They could be cadets and kings. [bridge] chorus: All systems go! Soon the world will know The fury of attack Feel the wrath of The super rad The super rad All systems go! Soon the world will know The fury of attack Feel the wrath of The super rad Super rad Super rad Super rad! And if we die before the battle’s through tell your mom, tell your dad We were super rad! [bridge] [chorus] All systems go As we step into the Octagon Feel the wrath of mission code name: applesauce applesauce applesauce Super Rad!

The original CD-R version was released on 4/14/2007 at a PYC show—the copies sold for $1 each and completely sold out by the time the show was over.

It was released onto Bandcamp on 9/9/2010.
