lyrics

Johnny saw a chicken today, crossing the road so he swerved out of its way
And died in a car crash, I guess it's only meant to happen one way
Danny set a napkin on fire, just to watch it burn the neighbor's yard
But now he doesn't have a face, save for his picture on the fireplace

Well how are you so stupid?
Yeah how are we so stupid?

What I mean to say is, we are spiders
Weaving earnest homes under bathroom tile
We are geysers, spouting nonsense
And clogging up the PRISM wires

I met the devil today, he shook my hand, went on his way
To slaughter some children
I bet I'll hear it on the news tomorrow
Man, how they'll kill him, smelt the flesh into baby food
And call it redemption
I hear in hell they sing in perfect unison

Well what I meant to say was, we are monsters
Worse than zombies or leviathans
And 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 shit and children
Man, we're so useless, locking the doors in the name of fate prevention
Just let the cocks die. Maybe tonight we'll have some deep-fried chicken
How are you so stupid? How am I so stupid?

Let the tombstone say, no survivors, no solutions, only mortal truth
And no conclusions, only humans, so let the pieces fall
