We’ll kill your car with an atomic bomb
We’ll snuff a fire with the white of our palms
With love and lust and intolerance too,
And when we’re done we’ll turn on cable news
Alright!
I don’t know much about how factories work.
But I used to hang around industrial parks.
And industry is the causation for feeling drowned
This must be why he tried suicide
I could never say the word “suicide”.
That must be all that he knows.
Our daytrip to the machine was fine
We lost our shoes a half a dozen times
A longer tour of the Capital Square
They got some pretty smart girls over there.
Alright!
I don’t know much about how factories work.
But I used to hang around industrial parks.
And industry is the causation for feeling drowned.
This must be why you tried suicide
Put your money where your mouth is every time.
You’ll buy sugar with your mouth!
I know a girl who looks just like Gemma Ward
And I have some friends who are just like other friends
I know a girl who can soothe each aching wound
All her lovin’ and it does not satisfy
Our daytrip proved to only magnify
That all her loving will not pacify
