the sun is high up in the sky and i'm in my car
drifting down into the abattoir
do you see what i see, dear?
the air grows heavy. i listen to your breath
entwined together in this culture of death
do you see what i see, dear?
slide on over here, let me give you a squeeze
to avert this unholy evolutionary trajectory
can you hear what i hear, babe?
does it make you feel afraid?
everything's dissolving, babe, according to plan
the sky is on fire, the dead are heaped across the land
i went to bed last night and my moral code got jammed
i woke up this morning with a frappucino in my hand
i kissed you once. i kissed you again
my heart it tumbled like the stock exchange
do you feel what i feel, dear?
mass extinction, darling, hypocrisy
these things are not good for me
do you see what i see, dear?
the line the god throws down to you and me
makes a pleasing geometry
shall we leave this place now, dear?
is there someway out of here?
i wake with the sparrows and i hurry off to work
the need for validation, babe, gone completely berserk
i wanted to be your superman but i turned out such a jerk
i got the abattoir blues
i got the abattoir blues
i got the abattoir blues
right down to my shoes |
