Hello, my name is Oliver and I'm going to tell you a story.

It's about a young girl...
She's only fifteen years old and has blonde hair and blue eyes.

She lives with her parents in New Jersey and they love her very much;
And one night she and her friends decided they were going to come to New York City.

"My Parents are away and I'll take their car, they will never know!
We're gonna have a great time!" she said.

And they drove over the George Washington Bridge and drove downtown to the Limelight.

"Wow, look at the line!"
"Don't worry I know the guy at the door, we'll get in."
And they did.

"So many people, look at that guy's shoes... they must be a mile high!"
And she turned around and bumped into a really cute guy.

They had a good time, they danced for hours and hours;
and she had a few drinks too!

"Hey", he said, "My roommate's not home and well,
I was wondering if you wanna, you know... come to my place.
I just don't wanna... I just don't wanna be alone." And she said, "Yes!".

So they got into a taxi and went to 3rd Avenue and 11th street to the NYU dorm rooms
And went upstairs and sat on his bed.

And he said, "Take this pill..." And she did.
And then she said, "What did you just give me?"
"Ecstasy." he said. And then...

He fucked her all night. Fucked her all night. Fucked her all night.
Fucked her all night...

It's just one night in NYC. One night in NYC. One night in NYC.
It's just one night in NYC.

. . .


I was in my apartment and I said, Yo Rob!.
And he said, Yo Oliver what's up?.
And I said, I like fuckin drugs.
He said, Yeah?. I said, Yeah, lets take some E!.
And he said, Yeah!.

So we went downtown to my friend Leslie's house on our bikes,
and was like; Yo Leslie I'm gonna take these bitches to the movies.
Could I have fifty dollars? Cause like I wanna buy them popcorn and shit.
And she was like; Yeah I guess so. You going to pay me back?
And I was like; Yeah, i'll pay you back.
She was like; 'Alright you can take these girls to the movies, that's cool.
And I was like; That's cool, yeah I'm gonna get them popcorn and shit.

Yo, but what she didn't realize and understand,
what she didn't catch onto was the basic fact that well...

We were on a mission... for extacy. We were on a mission for extacy.

Mission extacy. Mission; cause I like fuckin drugs.
Mission extacy. Mission; cause I like fuckin drugs.

I said, Yo Rob you stupid nigga, we got bicycles...
man man's in Brooklyn, how we gonna get there?
He said, Yo let's go to Lisa's she'll give us a ride.
I was like; Yeah? He was like; Yeah, she'll give us a ride.

So we went down town to fuckin Lisa's and I said,
Yo Lisa my man in Brooklyn, he's got this book I need for my school project.
And she was like; Yeah? And was like; You wanna ride?
I was like; Yeah we need a ride. She was like;
That's cool you know, because it's for your school project.

Ha. So shit we got in the car and headed out to Brooklyn you know,
going over the fuckin Williamsburg Bridge, fuckin to Williamsburg;
you know checkin in where my friend lives.

But you know what? What she didn't realize was...

We were on a mission for extacy. We were on a mission for E.
And we lied to her! Cause we don't give a fuck. Cause we don't give a fuck!

Mission extacy. Mission extacy. Mission extacy.
Mission; cause I like fuckin drugs...

Yeah; and wouldn't you fuckin know it! My man said,
I aint got no shit now. We gotta go to Manhattan.
And I was like; 'Yo we just came from Manhattan.
So we got back in the car and I said,
Yo Lisa this is my friend, he left his book in Manhattan.
She was like; Yeah? She was like; You need it for your school project.
And I was like; Yeah I need it for my school project.
Can you give us a ride back? She was like;
Yeah that's cool, for your school project and all.

But what she didn't know was... What she didn't realize was...

We were on a mission for extacy. We were on a mission, and we lied to her!

Mission extacy. Mission extacy. Mission extacy.
Mission; cause I like fuckin drugs.

So we got our E's. And we fuckin paid him his fifty dollars.
And fuckin Lisa gave us a ride back to our apartment.
And I sat down in my purple chair and I looked out the window,
and I said, Rob take your E. And I took my E.
And he took his fuckin E.

And then we felt it!! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! E-x-t-a-c-y.

The Real World

[No lyrics]

. . .


Let me take you into the future!
Deep into a different time.
Let me grip onto your face...
and bring you to this new place.

Super-social amphetamine.
The queer tune of control.
The panic disorder gripping...
the entire race has a whole.

Flesh is the fever of force...
and its the sound without remorse.
Rampant is the army of disease...
that brings you to your knees!

You cant believe everything you hear.
You cant believe everything you see.
The conspiracys ever growing...
and all you can believe in is me!

These are the things, the things to come.
These are the things, the things to come.

. . .


Even though I tell you a story, I tell you something not
Even though you think you know, you're not something god
And when the world starts to twirl and to twist and bleed
Everything that I will teach you will be everything you'll need

Shadows that we live in, come from the light of darkness
Or light that never burns, or blind you with its brightness
See the way that black, shines through a tunnel
And feel the new coldness as the new world rumbles

Blood and the gods, come together above us in the sky
Mothers of our brothers and our fathers wilt and die
Fearless and brave, we stand in the face of death
Where we know, where we'll go, is better than were we left

Even though I tell a tale, I tell this one is not
For you see I see the future and the future I see not
Like a bird without its wings twisting on the floor
A cat will come and take its life and bring it out that door
So as you know I should have been able to figure out
That door is open and guess what? I am all about

Blood and the gods, come together above us in the sky
Mothers of our brothers and our fathers wilt and die
Fearless and brave, we stand in the face of death
Where we know, where we'll go, is better than were we left

. . .


We walk. In the Day. Under the sun and through the trees.
We view the sky. You see blue, I see purple,
we find shapes within the clouds.

Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.

We talk. Into the night. About things that do not matter.
About out parents. About our friends.
Things we do, now and then.
Under the moon, in the blanket of the night.

Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.

We go, into a club. In any city. The air is hot.
You start to smile, and we dance... like robots.

I am wet and I am shiny.
I am wet and I am shiny.
I am wet and I am shiny.
I am wet and I am shiny.

Oh. Oh.

We fly, like a parrot into a jungle to view the scene.
Green snakes, Purple frogs. Red hippo. White giraffe.
I lean over to taste your kiss.

Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.

Your kiss, and your eyes make me feel wet and shiny,
very new, like a baby in out space.

I am wet and I am shiny.
I am wet and I am shiny.
I am wet and I am shiny.
I am wet and I am shiny.

Oh. Oh.
