Minus Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The last survivor of a boiled crown
Another casualty with the casual frown
The janitor vandals, they bark in your face
Juveniles with the piles and paste

[Chorus]
It's a sensation
A bankrupt corpse
In the garbage glasses
With the crutches of frogs

[Verse 2]
Don't be confused when the fuse is up
And you're taking a leak into your brother's cup
When the cup is filled you can run and be killed
In the billion miles of the muscles that build

[Chorus]
Radiation
Feeling the force
Karaoke
Vomiting morons

[Verse 3]
The scalps of zero hear the call
Rubbing in a blind man's goddamn hall
With the canker sores and the robot pills
Throwing imbeciles on the window sills
[Chorus]
It's a sensation
A bankrupt corpse
In the garbage glasses
With the crutches of frogs
Frogs
Frogs

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
