Track Name: Job Fair
PLEASE MA'AM OR MISTER CAN YOU HELP ME OUT?
YOU KNOW I GOT A NEW AGENDA I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT
I'M CONSIDERING MY OPTIONS FOR A NEW CAREER
I'M EITHER GONNA BE A FLORIST OR AN AUCTIONEER
HEY MOM AND DAD CAN YOU GIVE ME A FEW?
YOU KNOW I'M LOOKING FOR ANOTHER FIELD TO BREAK INTO
I'VE BEEN GATHERING OPINIONS ON MY LATEST PLAN
I'M GONNA BE AN ORTHODONTIST OR A GOVERNMENT MAN

KEEP YOUR HEAD ABOVE OR BE SUBDUED
YOU KNOW YOU'RE HALFWAY DEAD NO MATTER WHICH YOU CHOOSE

HEY EVERYBODY HAVE YOU GOT SOME TIME?
CUZ I'VE BEEN TRYING OT GET A FIX ON THESE IDEAS OF MINE
MY DIPLOMA DOESN'T HELP A DAMN AND ALL IN ALL
I GUESS I'M BETTER OFF TO THROW MY HEAD AGAINST THE WALL
HEY BABY PLEASE CAN YOU CUT SOME SLACK?
YOU KNOW I'LL SETTLE UP TOMORROW IF YOU GOT MY BACK
I'VE BEEN RUNNING OUT OF LUCK CUZ IT'S ABOUT WHO YOU KNOW
AND ALL MY RESUMES ARE FAKE AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO

I'VE BEEN THINKING I SHOULD FIND WORK UNDERSEA
WAIT TO SINK OR LEARN TO SWIM ASAP
YOU WERE PROBABLY ON THE SAME DAMN BOAT AS ME
FOUR YEARS AND A ROOM FOR YOUR ADMISSION FEE
ALL HANDS ON DECK WE'RE GOING DOWN RIGHT NOW
CUZ THE CAPTAIN NEEDS COMPANY
LIFE BOATS COST EXTRA THEY AIN'T FREE

KEEP YOUR HEAD ABOVE OR BE SUBDUED
YOU KNOW YOU'RE HALFWAY FUCKED NO MATTER WHICH YOU CHOOSE
Track Name: Erik Elects To Veto
ERIK ELECTS TO VETO
YOU KNOW THIS SHIT'S A LITTLE HARDCORE FOR HIM
AND WHEN THE PICKENS ARE SLIM AND THINGS LOOK GRIM
YOU KNOW HE TAKES IT BACK TO EL CERRITO

TO SAY WHAT? I SAY! WE DON'T KNOW
EVERYONE'S A LITTLE BIT WORRIED FOR THE TRAIN TO STOP
