lyrics

johnny saw a chicken today crossing the road so he swerved out of its way, died in a car crash, i guess it's only meant to happen one way danny set a napkin on fire just to show the world his burning desire but now he doesn't have a face, save for his picture on the fireplace
how are you so stupid? how are you so pitiful?

well what i mean to say is we are spiders, weaving marvelous webs under bathroom tile and we are geysers spouting nonsense and clogging up the PRISM wires

i met the devil today, he shook my hand, went on his way, slaughtered some kid... i bet i'll hear it on the news tomorrow man, how we'll kill him, chop up the bones, boil the rest to baby food, call it redemption, but i know in hell we'll sing in perfect unison uh oh ah huuah! o no no no no

well what i meant to say was we are monsters, worse than zombies or whatever you read we are lovers, sweeter than christians and their puppies too

my favorite joke is the human, doin' what he love to save or destroy the world (depending on opinion) well either way they make great shit and children man you're so ruthless, locking your doors in the name of some fate protection just let the cocks die maybe tonight we'll have some deep-fried chicken

how are you so sick? how are you so beautiful?
i'll let the tombstone say
no survivors, no solutions, only mortal fumes and
no conceptions, no conclusions, only time to choose
