Kokopelli Face Tattoo Lyrics
I was a sexy little viper rune
In the corner of a King Tut tomb
When the hate train started
Going choo choo.
I was a rat on a burning ship
When we sunk, our fire got put out.
It was just like the great plague,
It's like the birth of a new heir
Hey dude I hate everything you do
But I’m trying really hard to not hate you
Hating you won’t make you suck any less
I was a wheel in a war machine
Now I’m a toilet in a restaurant
Somebody’s gotta do it
I know my place
I was a baby killing Cadillac
Now I’m a drug induced heart attack
Somebody’s gotta do it
I know my place
Have you ever wanted to be
Have you ever wanted wanted to see
Someone better
in the mirror
Have you ever wanted to go
Have you ever wanted to know
Somewhere greener
somewhere cleaner
I bet you got something beautiful in mind
They’re gonna beat me till I’m black and blue
Give me a kokopelli face tattoo
And I'll tell you a secret
"Kreuz" is German for Williams
In the blood cult of the mislead youth
I’ve got a bad case of the yellow flashlight blues
Let me tell you some weird shit
There's gonna be a big old Civil war inside my house tonight
Hey dude I hate everything you do
But I’m trying really hard to not hate you
Hating you won’t make you suck any less
Hating you won’t make me suck any less
Hating you won’t make you suck any less
In the corner of a King Tut tomb
When the hate train started
Going choo choo.
When we sunk, our fire got put out.
It was just like the great plague,
It's like the birth of a new heir
But I’m trying really hard to not hate you
Hating you won’t make you suck any less
Now I’m a toilet in a restaurant
Somebody’s gotta do it
I know my place
Now I’m a drug induced heart attack
Somebody’s gotta do it
I know my place
Have you ever wanted wanted to see
Someone better
in the mirror
Have you ever wanted to know
Somewhere greener
somewhere cleaner
Give me a kokopelli face tattoo
And I'll tell you a secret
"Kreuz" is German for Williams
I’ve got a bad case of the yellow flashlight blues
Let me tell you some weird shit
There's gonna be a big old Civil war inside my house tonight
But I’m trying really hard to not hate you
Hating you won’t make you suck any less

In reference to the line where Sean (the lead singer of AJJ) sings, "I've got a bad case of the yellow flashlight blues.":
In 2012, in the band’s hometown of Phoenix, AZ, someone left a series of yellow flashlights around town which had been turned into explosives. When people picked up the flashlights and turned them on, they exploded.
It’s unclear whether Sean has the blues from the cruelty of a world in which people injure strangers with improvised explosives, or whether the world’s ugliness makes him feel like inflicting random pain himself.
