SET LIST 21

A COLD PLATE

⚠️ EXTREME TRIGGER WARNING – SET LIST TWENTY‑ONE (21) Set List 21 contains graphic, explicit, disturbing, and intentionally provocative material. These songs are written to shock, expose, and force confrontation with subjects that are often sanitized, hidden, or ignored. This is not subtle songwriting — this is confrontation art. This set is not safe for casual listening. MAJOR THEMES & TRIGGERS INCLUDE: Explicit domestic violence (verbalized, enacted, normalized, mocked, and retaliated) Graphic murder and homicide (shootings, stabbings, vigilante violence) Sexual violence and coercion Incest-adjacent and taboo sexual imagery Explicit sexual content and crude sexual language Misogyny and gender‑based degradation (depicted critically and satirically) Rape culture and victim‑blaming exposed through character voice Abusive relationships portrayed from inside the abuser's mind Elder cognitive decline and dementia (Uh, That's Christmas Nana) Childhood memory loss and aging‑related confusion Hate speech, racism, and classism (used satirically and critically in Fuzzy Math) Political satire involving real public figures Transphobic, sexually explicit, and potentially offensive language Self‑harm and suicide (explicit ideation and completed acts) HIV/AIDS transmission as revenge (Venus) Drug abuse, addiction, and self‑destructive sexual behavior Graphic descriptions of bodily harm and death Moral nihilism and deliberate offense as commentary ⚠️ CRITICAL CONTENT NOTES (STRONG WARNING): "Never Expect It" depicts explicit domestic abuse and murder from both perspectives, without softening language or tone. "Man Enough" portrays vigilante violence justified through masculinity and rage. "Dom‑Vio" satirizes real‑world domestic violence scandals, media cover‑ups, and institutional complicity. "Every Four Weeks" contains explicit sexual descriptions, crude anatomical language, and material many listeners will find offensive or dehumanizing. "Fuzzy Math" uses racist, classist, and inflammatory language intentionally to expose elite hypocrisy and systemic prejudice. "Venus" includes HIV, pregnancy, drug abuse, revenge sex, homicide, and suicide, culminating in multiple deaths. Several songs contain slurs, profanity, and deliberately transgressive humor. THIS SET MAY BE ESPECIALLY DISTRESSING IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO: Domestic abuse or intimate partner violence Sexual assault or sexual humiliation Suicide or self‑harm Hate speech or discriminatory language HIV/AIDS trauma Graphic violence Misogyny or gender‑based violence Religious satire involving death and abuse Political satire involving racism and war Shock humor without emotional buffering IMPORTANT CONTEXT NOTE Many tracks in Set List 21 speak from the voice of perpetrators, abusers, or morally broken narrators. These perspectives are not endorsements — they are exposures. The writing intentionally removes moral safety rails to show how cruelty rationalizes itself when left unchecked. This is not a comforting set. This is not a healing set. This is a set about what happens when society laughs, looks away, or monetizes violence. Set List 21 is confrontational performance art. It is designed to offend complacency, not to entertain politely. Listener discretion is not just advised — it is essential.

I'm trying to kill those and put to death. This emptiness inside these last ten years, that's how long it's been since you disappeared. Just when I believed in something... Something turned into nothing. Now I'm just a shell of what I used to be. Left all by myself in this dark blue sea. Holding nothing sacred anymore. I don't even fake it, I just stay bored. Underachieving, alone and ignored (2) TEN PERCENT TOM Ten Percent Tom knew he was wrong But he didn't want to get hurt anymore So he would turtle and hide Rather than go looking inside Decided he would no longer go and explore So he would bide his time By clogging his mind With useless and trivial facts With apathy as his brace His time he did waste Time he knows he will never get back Oh, Ten Percent Tom Here's where you went wrong You lost your passion along with your love It was another's mistake Yet you let your heart break Looking down instead of looking above (3) UH THAT'S CHRISTMAS NANA Has anyone seen my apron? Has anyone seen my keys? I can't see too well Without my glasses I lost them too While I was stirring peas By the way... Do you know where my car is? I could have sworn I drove it home But at least I know when my birthday is Because this nice man Who knew I'd forget He kindly carved it on a stone Well thanks for helping me find my apron I left it hanging around my waist When I opened my car door In the ignition I found The keys I'd misplaced Maybe I'll remember Where I left my glasses After a good night's sleep So I'll go to bed But wouldn't you know it When I went in to brush my teeth I looked in the mirror And I saw those glasses On the top of my head This is just part Of getting a little older When you start to forget more Than most people remember I just hope you don't forget my birthday On the twenty-fifth day of December
(4) MAN ENOUGH Everyone could tell By the bloodied look on his face There are some unwritten rules set aside And applied to the disgraced So when a vigilante from the crowd appears To take you for a ride Be forewarned that silencing fear you hear The fact that dead men don't lie It seems I didn't even have to make A character statement in the case I just said one thing: "I did it… For the betterment of the human race!" For the cops, the prisoners, the mob and the jury They already know just how much My love for a woman has hurt me And before she's backed into a corner He'll be the one that gets knocked down If it was a choice I had to make I know I'd do the same again I'm man enough to stand my ground No, I'd never call it a mistake I'm man enough to hop in my truck And sure, I know when to drive away But I'm man enough to Kick the sh*t outta him For slapping her in the face… (5) NEVER EXPECT IT My wife's a b*tch That's why she gets hit When I get upset I just raise my fist She knows it well She gave me hell Then down she fell Now she ain't well My wife's a bitch That's why she gets hit When I get upset (click sound) I just raise (bang!) (pause) My husband's dead I shot him in the head That's the last time I said Now the floor's all red Now I'm going off to bed Later I'll clean all this mess Decide whether to confess Or go and burn this bloody dress (humming) My husband's dead I shot him in the head That was the last time I said… (6) MY PARTNER IN CRIME We were all the fashion during an upside-down time In our dance of passion, a partnership maligned, Amidst whispered fears, still two hearts would intertwine, As I'd find myself here... with my partner in crime See, you were as bad for me, as I was for myself We wade in our tempestuous sea of tortured mental health I was in too deep… I knew I had to get out Are there secrets the other keeps? We each had no doubt When neither of us are straight We blame other names For our sorrows We face the same predicament today As yesterday As tomorrow There's a river flowing in my mind A rage within this howling wind? It's pulled me from the shadows Love's flame sucked me in again Yeah, the same familiar burn That's got me so many times before Time and time again I take my turn I knew what the future had instore All those prophets from history They said faith would set me free Haha, yeah.... Right before getting torn apart They had a good ride Before things went dark Romeo had Juliet But I got only this Judas, sure got a bad rap, man… It was just one little kiss Moses parted the deep blue sea Then he left us all here to drown Some say redemption's for the weak But Me, I chose my thorny crown Mary Magdalene walked the streets No, never once looking to be saved Remembered as an uncleansed woman While I might say new age and brave In ancient tales, villains, heroes and guys like me embark Between the bounds of love and hate, all over the human arc One birth, one death, the flame, the dark Making, missing or never leaving one's mark? Amongst the common men, I found my voice A poet's pen, my weapon of choice With ink-stained hands, I've poured my soul Into verses raw and let it all unfold!!!! Painting canvas with searching, unrelenting prose Where both hope and despair are there They seamlessly compose In strokes of light and shades of gray The human spirit, in all its display Yeah, I've been doing my best To pick up and run with the baton And I'll hand it to next one When I'm too old to take this on… So many that I've turned to They have all fallen by the way What's a man left to do when he's not sure he wants to pay The heavy cost that comes with speaking, thinking for himself When so many men have said they'd rather be led by something or someone else So here I now stand in front of the mirror Covering my eyes, my mouth, my ears… Until the only thing left is a lone voice inside I'll let that, along with you, forever be my guide Yes, together we'll go to wherever God wants us to be And if there's no God that'll mean that it's just you and me So if it's all up to us… Then we had best not lose faith We had better not quit And most definitely not wait!!! This opportunity comes once a lifetime Try your best to enjoy the damn ride!!! Maybe you'll find your salvation lies Not beyond this world but somewhere withinside (7) HURTING HER KNEES AND PRIDE My girlfriend's house... Her parents are home They don't like me much... So we're never alone I'm sitting on the sofa... And she's looking so fine We've been dating so long... Don't they know she's mine? They think she's so pure... And that she can wear white An innocent girl... A parents' delight I'm so sorry... She didn't tell you what's right Like what she does... When she spends the night Because of these lies... By your law she abides Because of these lies... In the bushes we hide Because of these lies... We make love outside Because of these lies... We take the car for a ride They say what's unknown Doesn't hurt you And that the truth shall set you free But if they only knew what I've taken They'd take you away from me This is our little secret So we'll play our charades We'll keep singing our song Until the music fades Come for a ride and I'll take you away It's finally our turn In this game that we play Yeah I'm feeling good I really got it tonight Let's drive somewhere And turn off the lights Love has its prices And love has its costs I'll unbutton your shirt While you watch out for the cops Though she can't by wine She can still buy smokes Is she old enough to love? Don't ask her folks Their old school values And their old school style Today I'd place 'em In an old school pile Because of the old ways... They try to keep me away Because of the old ways... They never let me stay Because of the old ways... This is the game we play Because of the old ways... They think we'll wait 'til our wedding day When she's at college They never see me at all And they never hear us rattling the walls But when she's home In the window I crawl Better not get caught... I hear that dad's gotta gun I smoke a pack a day... Don't get far when I run Too great the risk... I don't wanna get caught I think it's time to head Out to the parking lot Yeah, out in the corner And in the shadows we hide She says, "It hurts her knees...and it hurts her pride"
(8) DOM-VIO (spoof of DOMINO by Van Morrison) Note: Dom vio = domestic violence NFL don't wanna discuss it What causes concussions on women's brains Fans may get disgusted That's when channels start to change In that case, destroy all evidence Don't keep it under lock and key Never have to worry 'Bout facts blowing back at you or back at me... (Get it?) no no Dom - Vio (not that night) So long as there's no video of the fight Lord, have mercy I said no no Dom - Vio You'll be alright So long as there's no pictures of the fight Say it again: I said no oh no Dom - Vio I said no-oh-no Dom - Vio (Hid it) There's no need for argument... No there's no argument at all... After you punched her in the elevator And the camera captured her fall Or vice versa That depends on where ever you're at (The knife) Sometimes you get the O.J. treatment And we wonder why they stop fighting back... (Hit 'em) Oh there's no video (It's all right) So go loco Rocky Marciano Hey you Greg Hardy There you go... Lord have mercy! I said No Dom - Vio If there's no video They will let you go... They said it's alright! Say it again No Dom - Vio (Huh!) I said No no Dom - Vio Well, Mr. Goodell I just don't wanna see Someone who is clearly crazy's Face on my T.V. Playin' in the league For my kids to see For my kids to be Uh - uh, not right Uh - uh, not right Uh - uh, not right Uh - uh I'm gonna leave (9) FUZZY MATH (a FEIST parody of their song 1,2,3,4) Voice of George W. Bush speaking: Well hello little Jenna... this is a song that my daddy used to sing to me... it's called fuzzy math... Four, three, one, two So much work we don't wanna do Three, two, one, four That's what God made minorities for This is exactly what my daddy said to me When I was young he sat me down on his knee When you're born so insanely rich There's no reason why you can't be prejudice Guatemalans came here to cut the grass For those of us who are high class While Haitians floated over on a raft To work at nursing homes wiping grandma's ass Columbians grow coffee and sometimes sell cocaine Those silly little Mexicans love working in the rain Not sure whatcha call the ones that clean our house But at least they do something unlike those blacks down south We were born so insanely rich Perhaps that's why we're so prejudice Eleventeen, three, six, five and eight Growing up wealthy, white and ignorant is great Now tell me daddy... Why'd we really go to war? So many die... Just what are they fighting for? He said, "Well honey, think of the world as a great big machine… That runs off a whole bunch of oil and gasoline… And you know those sand people can get pretty mean… That's why we're so glad Dick Cheney's on our team" We were born so insanely rich Perhaps that's why we're so prejudice Eleventeen, three, six, five and eight Growing up wealthy, white and ignorant is great Three, four, two, one And now my song is done (10) EVERY FOUR WEEKS The vagina bleeds… Every four weeks… That's like five to eights days That I don't wanna play My trans friend is fine With a nice behind And it's soft warm hole A place I can always go Unless she has Taco Bell In that case, well That's when we wait a day Just to play it safe And then the lovin' don't stop Well, that's just the facts But sometimes she wants to top That's the only drawback Yeah, as she lubes you up Smiling, now it's your turn And after one big THRUST You feel your asshole BURN She reminds you mostly of your mom Except for the gonads So be careful bending over Yeah, she's hung like her dad The vagina bleeds… Every four weeks… That's like five to eights days She says stir the paint My trans friend is fine With a nice behind And a great long taint Yeah, I can hardly wait!
(11) RUMOURS FROM HEAVEN The creator never really had a chance when his disciples could no longer walk straight The power of song and dance unleashed after ages inside the Golden Gate Now that there's rock n roll in heaven everyone enjoys the hymns And the only problem the church has is getting everybody in These guys all got the same room upstairs Yes, their landlord is god still no one seems to care They all sit and scratch their heads wondering just who'll come knocking next Yet time has told them that it's anyone's guess Everybody's grateful to be dead because now they're the house band in Heaven They fill the place every single night Now that doesn't sound too upsetting Hard to tell just how the conversation sounds When John's head is just about to hit the ground Hey John, it's George whose been knocking at the door Because of course Paul would've rang the bell John responded that George must've left the Maharishi Or else I figured we'd a seen him in hell There goes Hendrix playing without his hands Wearing only his headband and his funky underpants Hey George, go get a bucket of cold water Let's see if we can get him outta this trance Sammy Davis Jr. sure can tap dance and he don't eat much But when Elvis Presley knocks don't ever let him in For he'll just eat all of the chips and dip -oh what a sin But Sinatra's okay because he always brings gin Hey who invited Bobby Dylan? You know were not allowed to let anyone in early Keith Richards came all the way up for nothing But were sure we'll see him again shortly The creator never really had a chance when his disciples could no longer walk straight The power of song and dance unleashed after ages inside the Golden Gate Now that there's rock n roll in heaven everyone enjoys the hymns And the only problem the church has is getting everybody in John whispers: No you ain't gonna see what I got in my pocket But the words that come to me are knock it off and stop it You say you want to change your ways but just what's the use? I have had far beyond my years too much pain and abuse Jim Morrison wakes up mumbling something odd: The day revolves around the tears falling from the serpent's eyes I hold the pain of the world inside my mind My ears can no longer hear a child cry My senses crawl beneath my skin As a man who once saw all becomes blind But they all know George is not the type to be out done: The pressure of the sky falls on your back The clouds start laughing in your face The weather changes all the time So remove your soul from within its case Old Blue Eyes never wants to join in Unless there's some ladies around When it's just the guys he's called the Chairman of the Bored Sitting in some darkened corner trying not to be found Now it sounds pretty sad but everybody is still waiting for Billy Joel But even though he's bald and fat he's still not that old They'd be happy with Elton John because they need someone on the keyboard When everybody heard he stopped doing drugs they all cried out oh lord! The group is still split about fifty – fifty between Madonna and Britney Spears They'll take anyone but Barbara Streisand Her stealing the show is what everybody fears The creator never really had a chance when his disciples could no longer walk straight The power of song and dance unleashed after ages inside the Golden Gate Now that there's rock n roll in heaven everyone enjoys the hymns And the only problem the church has is getting everybody in So now you know what you can look forward to when your day finally comes You can walk up the stairway to heaven and go chasing the band that's never on the run (12) VENUS Venus was raised in the Bronx A block away from the zoo She lived with mom and dad Left home at eighteen And came back at twenty-two A little wiser, a little more mature She went off to college Like she knew she had to do She had big green eyes And these big brown curls Cutest girl in the neighborhood Envy of all the boys and girls She came back from college With her tassel turned to the side A wandering soul who found herself And she felt pretty good inside The first to graduate From her family tree A future bright as any star Even though she didn't quite know What she wanted to be So she started tending bar Then she started wasting time Twisting off the bottle caps And cutting up the limes Such a friendly girl Such a sweet sensation With a smile and a wink She's start a conversation With anyone on a stool Or anyone playing pool She started partying a little But she usually kept her cool Just a little bit here And a little bit there Soon turned to all the time And then everywhere She was searching for some truth But they only told her lies But when the ship started sinking Venus quickly cut her ties Her friends at the bar Started bringing her down So she took a step back And then she skipped town So she packed her bags Set off for who knows where Coming to the conclusion It had to be better than there Well she headed out West And she did her best To avoid tricky situations And police stations She found an apartment Upstairs from a coffee shop A place to live, a place to work And then the partying stopped After she took that train west She got her life on track And it was waitressing one day When she met Captain Jack Cap'n Jack was well known as a player But he knew just what to say to her What's a sweetie like you Doing in a place like this? He gave her a big wink She blew him a little kiss So he stopped in for coffee Every morning for three weeks straight He asked Venus for some sugar Then he'd ask her for a date And soon after awhile She gave him another little smile She finally gave Jack her number The next day he dialed On the first date they had They went to the museum Looking so good together Oh man, you should've seen 'em The very next day They saw each other again And forever after that They were always making plans Soon she began to fall in love With what she thought love was Venus thought Jack loved her too Why? Well just because But little did she know That when her back was turned She was getting burned Because Jack soon learned: That even after so much time He still couldn't change his ways And like so many others He learned that cheating doesn't pay Venus was hearing wedding bells The stage was set and all Jack was either hearing voices Or else nothing at all His heart wasn't in it But he still played along Stairway to Heaven Was their wedding song Even with a ring on his finger He was still a cheat He'd meet a woman at the bar And he's sweep her off her feet Well before she knew it Venus had been had With a baby on the way Captain Jack was gonna be a dad She went in for a checkup And the doctor said there was a problem She asked what could he do? Doc said we can't yet solve it She had HIV And there's to date no cure Venus dropped her jaw And asked are you sure? Venus then asked about the baby After she fell And the doctor said that They couldn't yet tell Then she muttered something about Jack And then something about hell When Venus got home she wore a vale But she took notes In the back of her head Her eyes became suspicious Her heart filled with dread Still in the back of her mind She believed she was better off dead All the tears in her eyes She could never conceal All the pain in her heart She could never reveal The truth of it all She could never bear She lost touch with reality Started not to care Soon Venus hit the bottle She started lowering her class Downing all her sorrows In the bottom of her glass When trouble finds you You can no longer hide Especially when you carry An unborn child inside With future dreams shattered The past became lost Paying for another's sins The highest of cost As bottles poured… Others paid too Newborn baby entered this world All pale and blue Another prayer on a stone As Venus felt alone With revenge on her mind She headed on home She who hated men And likewise despised the earth Suicidal thoughts Spun back and forth In clouded judgment And blackened soul Venus set out Spinning out of control With hatred in her veins Which burned with every breath She decided to play God Walking hand in hand with death She forgot about Jack As she tried to hold the pain She returned to the bars Started snorting cocaine Venus took her wedding ring off When she sat on the stool She started getting free drinks From every other fool Venus got a pick up line And the guy would buy her a beer Then he'd say Hey let's get outta here That's what the guy said So that's what the girl did She played poker with their life When they didn't even bid Venus made them forget their name Every single night Then she'd slip out In the early morning light With a smile so wide He'd say what a lay Then he'd go and get tested That very same day For next to his reflection in the mirror Was a note written in red: "Welcome to the world of AIDS Pretty soon you'll be dead" Venus would hit a new bar She'd hit a new town And turn that place Upside down Up to her they'd come And she'd lay 'em down Then she'd slip out Without a sound He's drinking Scotch She's drinking gin She'd set a trap And they'd fall in Finally she broke down As her conscience became lost A heart so cold It filled with frost She pulled out a knife Stabbed Captain Jack Bleeding from the neck He fell back She opened a window Stood on the ledge Took one last breath Went over the edge I still think of Venus Every now and again Before it was all over She took twenty-one men
