WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?
BEATRICE:
Hi, my name is Beatrice. This is a song that I asked Charles to write. This is a message that needs to be heard by everyone in the world.
What the fuck happened to the world in which I've lived?
It seems that people living today would rather take than give
They made all types of bigotry, yet they all came from me
So what the fuck ever happened to love and unity?
Life is beautiful once you take a look around
Don't let the politicians or the rich guys bring you down
How can all my lovely children hate each other so?
How could all the people in this world stoop so low?
We threaten each other with nuclear warfare and everyone will die
We poison the world with greenhouse gas and just sit idly by
Please stop fighting, it's not worth your time
But you won't listen to me if it makes the government another dime
Capitalism sucks is all that I'm trying to say
I don't know why it has to be this way
What the fuck happened to the world we took away?

TAXMAN
CHARLES:
Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, 19 for me
Cos I'm the taxman
Yeah I'm the taxman
Should 5 percent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
Cos I'm the taxman
Yeah I'm the taxman
(If you drive a car, car) I'll tax the street
(If you try to sit, sit) I'll tax your seat
(If you get too cold, cold) I'll tax the heat
(If you take a walk, walk) I'll tax your feet
Taxman
Cos I'm the taxman
Yeah I'm the taxman
Don't ask me what I want it for (ah, ah, Mr. Wilson)
If you don't want to pay some more (ah, ah, Mr. Heath)
Cos I'm the taxman
Yeah I'm the taxman
And my advice for those who die (taxman)
Declare the pennies on your eyes (taxman)
Cos I'm the taxman
Yeah I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me.
Taxman!

NOT ALRIGHT
CHARLES:
I hope when I die you don't forget me
So won't you let me stay in your mind?
I'm not gonna say that I am broken
Cos our hate is unspoken, but that's just fine
You say it's okay
But still we fight, I say it's not alright
I don't wanna go back to my childhood
Cos regression is not good, I swear
Even though she was better to me back then
I wouldn't wanna go through it again, I swear
You say it's okay
But still we fight, I say it's not alright
A lot of the arguments we had are ongoing
I desperately hope my vulnerability ain't showing
I miss the days when I was happy
But I don't wanna be sappy thinking about it
I wasn't fragile, I wasn't made of glass
I grew up in the middle class, and I was stupid
You say it's okay
But still we fight, I say it's not alright.

PORK SODA
HANNA:
Somebody said I'm a fucking slum
Don't know that I belong
Maybe you're fucking dumb
Maybe I'm just a bum
Maybe you're fucking scum
Don't you go psycho chum
I want you for the world
I want you all the time
Pineapples are in my head
Got nobody cos I'm braindead
Pineapples are in my head
Got nobody cos I'm braindead.
...What else do I have on here?
(CHARLES coughs.)
