How pwnt will we be if those lyrics were true.
Nah, for real; I hardly doubt these lyrics are legit and like StA said - they're probably made up by some kid who found his dictionary again. Good find though... and a good laugh.

These are Maynardesque. They kind of have a little Ticks and Leeches vibe to them. But, they certainly fit with the Kerrang quote from Maynard about his dissatisfaction/disillusionment and what he said about trying to educate or make a change and that not happening. In fact, I think he may have said something about letting people just suffer the consequences, so these would fit.

Way too literal for Tool, I think.
Yes yes, they could be going in a "new direction", what with a shit title, track names and cover art, why not throw in some underwhealming lyrics as well. Byt that opening section about being up to his neck in the shit of mankind... it lacks the subtle ambiguousness that Maynard has demonstrated previously. The rest of it is more Maynardesq, but it feels a bit thrown together, doesn't feel like there's any cohesive meaning beneath some of it. I wouldn't be surprised to find that the originated on the backcover of some pale goth's maths excerise book.

if a song or album leaks, i'll definately listen to it. but i feel that it would be more awesome if tool keeps everything from leaking and doesn't even put out a single before the album comes out. let the album stand on its own would be extremely toolish.

Considering the lyrics for "The Pot", the "Rosetta Stoned" lyrics, although pretty good, are most certainly fake. That's just pathetic. They are not even funny. No "lol". They actually piss me off, they are an insult.

Someone should sing these then put music to them. Doesn't even have to sound like tool, just knowing that they've been made into a song would be good enough for me.

everyone has to keep in mind that TOOL had over FIVE YEARS to write these lyrics...i doubt, highly doubt, that the best they could come up with in five years is "But I just can't get off the pot."
