Help Wanted

Do you want to pay the bills?

Help wanted

Have unnecessary skills?

If a house is barely haunted, do you think it's really real

Fill out an application, just be patient, you know the drill

As a veteran, I was settling into a life of self-pity

Living with my mother in my favorite city

She started getting on my case about wasting my life

I missed the action of the Air Force and the feeling of flight

"Get a job", she demanded, so I picked up the papers

Saw an ad that wasn't bad; at least I wasn't a waiter

I was trained in computers, I was fit and athletic

I was tired of being a loser and feeling pathetic

So I went and interviewed; I was a dude without options

The more questions she asked, the more my mind flashed caution

Do you believe in UFOs? Yeah, I've had my fair share

Clairvoyance, ESP, do you believe in what isn't there?

And (later in the lockers[?]), I was honestly scared

But I was desperate and upset with just chilling in chairs

So I said, "The pay is steady, then I'm willing and able"

She said, "You're hired." I was wired, I was suddenly stable

I met the dudes in my crew, they were slimy and stinky

Took my down in the basement, showed me a really big twinkie

I started thinking the back of the bible was entirely right

I started seeing crazy shit that will turn you white

The dead rising from the grave, this is totally the end of days

At least I was getting paid, in spite of my mental state

Better than telling fortunes in Coney Island with a cape

Better than birthday parties where I wasn't offered any cake

I [?] patience perfect, I'm determined and devoted

Found a God in a painting and a spectral locomotive

Sometimes [?] sometimes I can not handle

But I'm about to [?] settles

God is watching over me; protecting me from dangers

Sometimes it's up to me to bust a beast with binding lasers

I have tools, I have talent, it's a challenge when you're chosen

But I was born to bust a ghost, [?] who oppose us
