Cut Your Face Lyrics
day in, day out again
sound in, sound out again
overrated stack of zeros
stated with indifference
plain and simple
bury your hands
in the great rinse
this air, these hands
this air, these hands
save your claim
watch it come
with marginal desperation
state your claim
worth the wait
weight of your sound
day in, day out
time in, time out
plain and simple
it's plain, it's simple
show me how you cut your face
where it hurts
(?)
bury your hands
(?)
(?)
all i can say is
i'm tired of accusations
i'm not that kind of guy
all this
all this can
this air
and a voice
pure
simple, simple
all i can say is
i'm tired of accusations
i'm not that kind of guy
why you cut your face?
[Once again not totally correct, but very close]
sound in, sound out again
overrated stack of zeros
stated with indifference
bury your hands
in the great rinse
this air, these hands
this air, these hands
watch it come
with marginal desperation
worth the wait
weight of your sound
day in, day out
time in, time out
plain and simple
it's plain, it's simple
(?)
bury your hands

i'm tired of accusations
i'm not that kind of guy
all this
all this can
this air
and a voice
pure
simple, simple
i'm tired of accusations
i'm not that kind of guy
why you cut your face?

I'm pretty sure this song is about shaving and the whole experience of cutting the face. "Day in, day out again" - most people shave daily. "Bury your hands in the great rinse" - refers to washing one's hands or wetting them to wash the face. He's "tired of accusations" - because people may be accusing him of roughhousing and that's why his face is bloody, but really "it's plain, it's simple" that he merely cut his face shaving.
Expanding on that, I think shaving may be part of the routine and mundaneness of having a "real job", and all the stuff that you have to do that seems stupid and pointless in isolation, but is necessary to "play the game".

The song is highlighting the routine involved in having a 9-5 job in order to show how mindless it is. No idea what the "tired of accusations" bit means though.
