Do you know the painting that you see on some greeting cards where all of the animals are sitting together, stoic and proud in the forest, and there in the background, rising in the sky, it's the earth? You have to ask “why aren't the animals trying to fight and eat each other? They are fucking enemies!” and “why is the earth rising into the sky? If the earth is in the sky, then where the fuck are we?” That shit is Wax Mannequin. Kind of lame... but so important and gripping.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

beware beware take heed take care you set up shop in town old hooper's shop burnt down should know out here we have a way held dear you're welcome to your own but help the meek along
believe believe my humble word is free good wills Augustus best insurance policy
but hope will fix the game for none but self in kin and clan faulter is the tread upon the back of common man
beware beware take care take heed you took the factory cut work and half their fee no idle hands undo the devil's plans no water left in stone no better kept than thrown I know it seems a simple peasant dream why should you stray or steer your path to power's clear
maybe what you've done you think will be for greater good but that wont help you none if what you done was understood
beware beware take heed take care you pumped our paper news to shock and shape our views your words are plain my neighbor is to blame pit baker 'gainst the farm and farm against the grain the stones are cast the singer spits them back but benevolent armed thugs can't quell the peasant clash
so strut and trickle down upon the seething mass of men and the moment you misstep I snag your jewels upon my pen
beware beware take heed take care we come to you at night and drag you to the square be wise be wise come clean we tracked your lies helped all your temple slaves set the place ablaze our compass is gone all sense of right and wrong well set ourselves to flames so long as you get what comes
they'll take five of us for every single one of you but that don't scare us none we're up to ninety nine to two your final soiree will be a banquet in the mud we'll pass the cup around to taste the memory of love
beware beware take heed and care my friends when blood with that is spared our wait is at an end
