lyrics

oh, oh,
oh, my dearest's just been knifed.
worst death scene
up and done by bad ass wipes.
"ignore him
melting into moods dreamlike."
but I saw.
stuffed in a corner,
evocative of
daisies shaking.

my roots,
they got too close.
i loved her.
but now the vibe is
more morose
like Christmas cards
steeped in blood,
ah bah humbug.
me and her
in matching sweaters,
"this card don't come with fruitcake, baby!"

"let me go!"
her death was an
Adagio.
butterfingered and
very slow...

oh,
and i sat there for the rest of the day (i sat there).
oh, I got choked up for the rest of the day (got choked up).
oh, something stung for the rest of my days.
"ooh, can we ever, ever be the same?"
"no, your mettle played the waiting game.
oh, your gimp rescue wasn't high-octane.
just
lost
and that's a bloody shame.

so now,
for a long, long time,
it's gonna make you...
you lose your mind.
it's gonna get
ugly.

oh, it's gonna...

UNLESS YOU GET YOUR ASS UP!"

left, right,
left, right,
left, right,
left, right...

swing jibe,
lead pipes.
shoot straight.
wear capes.
"help us,
slugger.
we're in
Bad shape.
duped
into
a
passive
state.
so grab
your pistol,
Slack Adagio.
be the
blissful
looming
missile.
lead us
to our
golden
years."

"me and my friends
are hanging up in Heaven
and i'm doing my impression
of your facial expression
as you shit yourself
while i died."

my roots,
my roots,
my roots,
my roots,
they got
too close...
