lyrics

Get in before they put the padlock back on
Open their eyes
How can a radiating speaker move so fast and get so far away from nowhere
You want to see those little fruits
All flailing for impeachment in a fennel scented racket
Stop complaining you're available for public consumption
Keep the onions in the kitchen, you don't need more of that in your life
They shove it down your throat shove it down your throat shove it down your throat shove it down your throat shove it down your throat shove it down your throat shove it down your throa

You get mocked or you get shot boy, live with it!

It's the same for everybody, just they're not on the TV to tell you
Everyone knows what your game is
You don't have to tell us what move we should make
Golden thrones built on stacks of white chocolate
Not even your hats could be big enough

Mute all the squall of a divisive debate
Initially we are offended
We'll quickly move on to more important things
A breakdown of GDP per capita among the developing world
It's too late to notice your seccession from the union
In principle a majority was needed but you can have the same effect with a knife
Cut yourself out of our circle
Cut us out from under your skin
We should have listened more
Not just poked the beast that lives beneath your auburn hair
It rears it's ugly head and screams your name and screams your name and screams your name and screams your name and screams your name and scr

It scares us half to death boy, no offence...
