SUPER BEST FRIENDS - SPY-WHERE?
I see you but you don't see me,
Watching you click,
This is real,
Porn and sport, you're no threat,
Left-wing nut you're being watched I regret,
It is just like a two-way mirror,
You self-reflect while I take notes,
Spy-where?
I've analysed what's on your screen,
I could sell you your own scene,
It is just like a two-way mirror,
You self-reflect while I take notes,
Now that I have your profile,
I'll take it over the hills and far far away,
Or I might sell it off on ebay.com.au,
You can tell a lot about a person by co-viewing a webpage,
You put too much trust in the digital age,
You're all under surveillance,
I can see what you see,
You're all under surveillance,
Like a two-way mirror you can't see me,
Like a two-way mirror you can't see me.

SUPER BEST FRIENDS - SLEEP
I need sleep but I don't want any,
It's such a waste of time,
Think of all the things I could do if I wasn't lying here,
I need pills to keep me awake but I'd rather sleep,
It's such a paradox,
I need sleep for tomorrow's narcosis,
My mind's open when I go back to sleep,
Sad when dreams are more fun than life,
I'd rather wake walk through my sleep,
I know I should get out of bed,
But I'm at peace inside my head,
Sad when dreams are more fun than life,
I'd rather wake walk through my sleep,
I know I should get out of bed,
But I'm at peace inside my head.

SUPER BEST FRIENDS - SOUND OFF
Small town boy never need no education,
Barely made my Year 10 graduation,
Don't wanna learn but I'd really like to shoot ya,
Gonna join the army for a well-paid future,
Selectively recruited from the smallest part of town,
I'm the perfect choice 'coz my IQ is down,
Never met a Muslim but Sir said,
"Son, they hate your freedom, now I order you to shoot one!"
Bleedin' yanks they're all a bunch of twats,
But Tony loves George, so I guess that's that,
We're at war for a well-wicked time,
But what fun can you have when everything's a war crime, innit?
Take me to Afghanistan so I can kill my fellow man,
I defend my country by invading Iraqi skies,
I'm training to serve and protect so you'll feel safe,
Now show me some respect,
Don't give me flack for the drinking and the pills,
Or dropping trou to Eagle Rock, it's a standard drill,
With a loaded gun I feel like a man,
I'm number one because I'm American,
I'll make them beg for their life on their knees,
Don't fuck with me because I'm a Marine!
Stop that, it's silly, the military's serious,
Believe it or not I respect my inferiors,
Marching and yelling teaches discipline,
And without an army they might kill the king,
We are the best in the world,
We are the boys and girls,
We are the chosen ones,
The Coalition [of the Willing]!
Sound off,
One two,
Sound off,
One two three four,
Sound off,
One two,
Sound off,
One two three four,
I'm a solider, here's my brain,
Let my number be my name,
I'm a robot trained to kill for the flag on Capitol Hill,
It's all for a noble cause, hating, killing, fighting wars,
We send in our poor and dumb to save capitalism.

SUPER BEST FRIENDS - ECCENTRIC CLEANSING
Another day of staring at the same old wall,
If you were paint it wouldn't take long to match at all,
I need to fill the holes, make the walls nice and plain,
I'll dip my brush in you because your colour's the same,
It's the new mono-hued Aryan Union,
Non-threatening, beautiful, super race of perfect people,
I pulled a pack of jelly babies off the shelf,
Pre-packaged to give a sweet taste to the self,
My sweet-tooth soured when I saw they all were grey,
And they resembled the faces I'd seen today,
It's the new mono-hued Aryan Union,
Non-thinking, pitiful, stupid race,
I've seen their faces as they line up for their thrills,
For what they lack upstairs their television fills,
Like walking canvases they absorb the paint,
But they do not control the brush,
And as spontaneity goes down the train,
The eccentric drown as the toilet goes flush,
And now a word from our sponsors,
Society's unified when everyone's the same,
This makes it possible to spot and remove stains,
We design the formula, mass-produce it,
Sit back and watch it multiply,
Spawning a mediocre mass of copycats
Who'll never use their own minds.

SUPER BEST FRIENDS - SOAPBOX
What if I was wrong and the dream was gone?
Could I be resigned to the fact tomorrow died,
I could let it slide, I could stand in line,
Live life on my knees, glad my name will die with me,
Where's that perfect world?
It's too much to think about,
Complacence is bliss,
Learn to love your puppet strings,
Puppet strings, puppet strings, puppet strings,
Where's that perfect world?
It's all but faded,
Cut your puppet strings,
When'd we get so jaded?
