If you're not solipsistic you're probably boring.

About Me

My name is Ken. I live at the Stinkhouse and I don't like you at all.

I like living with my best friends and my favorite punks.


D.I.Y. Why? because we hate you and the dumb look on your face,
D.I.Y. Why? because your band's another weak charity case,
Our shows should be five bucks or less, we'll do it for the kids,
Two legs good, mtv bad,
And major labels suck. no fucking shit.
D.I.Y. is simply your only excuse for why you always fail,
Initials on the flag you wave when your shitty records won't sell anywhere,
Politics and social comment, twenty dollar words won't make your lousy music go down easier you can't polish a turd.
D.I.Y. means do it yourself because it's what you want,
It doesn't clean the state when everything gets all fucked up what would you do you phony fuckhead if you hit it big?
Stop acting better then me we both know you're full of shit

Hey Jealously

     So earlier today I was brushing up some lyrics I'd written a while back and I started just sort of thinking about song structure.   Then I starting thinking about how so...

State of the Union, April 2007

The State of the Union, April 2007.  I can't remember another time in my life that I've felt so goddamn alive.  I've shed a lot of excess weight in a physical and a metaphorical sense of ...

What I've Learned

The boy with sandy brown hair came to the party late, looking vacant yet strangely satisfied.  His expression  was as lonely featured as the semi-abandoned parking lot where he left his 93 C...

The Queers sure know how to write a song

I got "love songs for the retarded" finally, and while I've heard it before this is the first time I'm able to go back and listen to songs.  What a great album, if you don't own it you're really ...
