Utilitarian Uses of Love Songtext
von Busdriver

By chance are you free
Here′s my room key and splayed limbs
When I do me I play to win, yeah
(Promptly after we meet)
You'll need to go drink absinthe
Under trees that grow leaves of absence (I left your ass alone)
While nursing hearts like leaking gaskets

This freedom it tastes funny
I am a case study
Dealing with utilitarian uses of love

To the ladies I′ll be vague
Because I'm streching my sea legs
Dipping my toe in the sleaziest cesspools above

My stage persona can be nude
Because the following day, it's renewed
And my subconscious is seafood, yeah

When you invite me, I cross over
You′ll smell burning and a waft sulfur
You′ve crashed along the soft shoulder, yeah


This freedom it tastes funny
I am a case study
Dealing with utilitarian uses of love

To the ladies I'll be vague
Because I′m streching my sea legs
Dipping my toe in the sleaziest cesspools above

(We've got time)
(We′ve got time)

Value sets and other moral imperatives
Don't have the place
And frankly we don′t give a fuck about them
You do, I don't
You do, I don't
Yes, you do, no, I don′t
You do, no, I don′t
We don't give a fuck about them
We don′t give a fuck about them
We don't give a fuck about them


The sex drive stupefies
Makes you feel like you′re in Junior High
My impulses go unsupervised, yeah
I prow on foot and spin a yarn
When the crowd looks like wind farms
My defense mechanism's been disarmed, yeah

This freedom it tastes funny
I am a case study
Dealing with utilitarian uses of love

This freedom it tastes funny
I am a case study
Dealing with utilitarian uses of love
