lyrics

I swear
Too much
Sing 'fuck'
A lot
But I can't convey emotion much clearer than that

You're a
Fuck up
You've got
No luck
Or so you say, or so you say
But you're just a petty whinging twat

And I'm so sorry but we're all out of manners again
Stocks won't come in 'till we've all confessed our sins
I'm not religious, but I know when I'm letting every other human down
You're not saving anybody, you're just bumming them out
So don't blame me
Don't blame me for this

And I believe, I believe that the ground beneath us will crumble and turn us to ash
And I believe, I believe that we're wasting our time when we pass around quotes and facts
And I believe, I believe that the warning we had was always more than fair
And I believe, I believe that everybody needs a breath of air

You're a
Deathstar
You're like
Hitler
You pull it off, it must be the way you're just so inconsiderate

Hand me
Pamphlets
Tell me
I'm an idiot
I'll still think you're, I'll still think you're
I'll still think you're an ungrateful fascist prick

And I'm so sorry but we're all out of manners again
Stocks won't come in 'till we've all confessed our sins
I'm not religious, but I know when I'm letting every other human down
You're not saving anybody, you're just bumming them out
So don't blame me
Don't blame me for this

And I believe, I believe that the ground beneath us will crumble and turn us to ash
And I believe, I believe that we're wasting our time when we pass around quotes and facts
And I believe, I believe that the warning we had was always more than fair
And I believe, I believe that everybody needs a breath of air

A message to creator,
Mother nature, God or Karma
Be you of colour or a bender
Be you mother or a father
Be you bearded man in clouds
Or a shining orb of light
Or a bunch of ewoks floating about in space

Be you a learning AI program
Be it all just in my mind
May you stand for love or hate
May you stand for beer or wine
Be you Morgan Freeman's voice
Or Dr. Freeman's crowbar
Or a sentient sound
Or Chuck Norris' face

You've made such a big call
To make humanity at all
Or did you just create the apes
And we're just their species evolved
It doesn't matter I don't care
To me we're just a rock in space
And there's no one near to help us when it's all gone

I'm agnostic not confused
I take no side I'm just amused
By your idiocracy
And how you still try to get through
But hey we're all the same
We all just want to be heard
Though I'll accept that I'll never be heard at all

And I'm a shit stain
Writing on a piss stain
The world will always stay the same
I'm screaming at the world

And you're an O2 waste
You try too hard to make a change
And admit that you're not doing great
You're screaming at the world

I swear
Too much
Sing 'fuck'
A lot
But I can't convey emotion much clearer than that

You're a
Fuck up
You've got
No luck
Or so you say, or so you say
But you're just a petty whinging twat

And I'm so sorry but we're all out of manners again
Stocks won't come in 'till we've all confessed our sins
I'm not religious but I know when I'm letting every other human down
You're not saving anybody you're just bumming them out
So don't blame me
Don't blame me for this
