TRIVIA!

-Idiosynchracies had a different original name and lyrics. Initially, it was titled "Meth-um-feta-meens", and had the chorus of:

"Methamphetamines,
Will be the death of me
Your utopia?
Not my fantasy"

This was changed when Shaun, searching for the band that would one day be Starving In Style, joined a group who opposed the drug-related lyrics, reasoning that the crowd they often played for--being from a smaller midwest town--were older, and might be offended. The lyrics were begrudgingly rewritten, and after the group refused to play ANY originals, opting for "cover band", Shaun parted ways. The name and lyrics stuck. The title was misspelt as a reference to the old phonetic spelling.

-This track was also intended to be acoustic.

lyrics

One...two...one, two, three, four!

Fill me up, I'm empty
Calm me down, I'm shaken
Put me out, I'm burning
Teach me to live, I'm dying

Spice me up, I'm boring
Throw me away, I'm broken,
Grunge is dead, I'm lying,
Kurt is too, I'm crying

Idiosyncrasies,
Lead to bloody knees
Our utopia
Is a fallacy

Patch me up, I'm bleeding
Put me down, I'm beaten
Let's be friends, I'm trying
You're still dumb, I'm sighing

Lock me up, I'm crazy
Sorry love, I'm cheating
Please don't cry, I'm sorry
I'm a freak, don't love me

Idiosyncrasies,
Lead to bloody knees,
Our utopia
Is a fallacy

Give me another excuse,
To finish tying the noose,
I want a little more,
Don't call me the whore

Idiosyncrasies,
Lead to bloody knees,
Our utopia,
Is a fallacy,
You're not innocent,
I'm just lazy
It's not my intent,
It won't ever be

[Incoherent Screaming]
