lyrics

a day is almost over
flowers in the park
golden gleaming sparks

so we sat around in shellshock
every single day
nothing much to say

the sky was tipping over
from blue to white and sober
all these plants are pots

and as we flee for cover
in underground them shelter
daffy duck tears the cloth

people stood and watched it
corpses in the mud
soak up all my sun (stains)

and america man stood over on the other side
too bad his honey wasn't made with pride

bright as the sun but colder
we suddenly looked older
i don't care who lost

and as we flee in cover
in underground them shelter
as the bombs went off

go to the place and you will find nothing's there anymore
go find the face and you will see everything in a different place it was before

sitting by a frozen pond at night
the fire's warm the air is bright
and you just axe me
axe me

the flowers in your sockets growing bigger
you are insane before you're bread
and you ask me
ask me

"don't you want to know why you are wrong"

four cheers everybody spit your glue
i swallowed the earth but the earth is swallowing me too
and now what will i do
if you win the war you're a whore but if you lose
then how does anyone remember you, love

stumbled in a warp hole and i found the liar
we gave him credit because it's hard to be inspired by a choir

why do you leave
why do you leave
why do you leave
why do you leave
the shampoo in the drainer
is there nothing else to say
or should i just wait later
my waiter

please tell me why the sun explodes

cuz everybody knows
nothing ever stays
and if you ask me who you are
i'll ask if everything's okay?
okay?
