Some say the end is near
|
|
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
|
|
I certainly hope we will
|
|
I sure could use a vacation from this
|
|
|
|
Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
|
|
Freaks
|
|
|
|
Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call L.A.
|
|
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
|
|
Any fucking time. Any fucking day
|
|
Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay
|
|
|
|
Fret for your figure and
|
|
Fret for your latte and
|
|
Fret for your lawsuit and
|
|
Fret for your hairpiece and
|
|
Fret for your Prozac and
|
|
Fret for your pilot and
|
|
Fret for your contract and
|
|
Fret for your car
|
|
|
|
It's a
|
|
Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
|
|
Freaks
|
|
|
|
Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call L.A.
|
|
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
|
|
Any fucking time. Any fucking day
|
|
Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay
|
|
|
|
Some say a comet will fall from the sky
|
|
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves
|
|
Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still
|
|
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits
|
|
|
|
And some say the end is near
|
|
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
|
|
I certainly hope we will
|
|
I sure could use a vacation from this
|
|
|
|
Stupid shit, silly shit, stupid shit
|
|
|
|
One great big festering neon distraction,
|
|
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied
|
|
|
|
Learn to swim, learn to swim, learn to swim
|
|
|
|
Mom's gonna fix it all soon
|
|
Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be
|
|
|
|
Learn to swim
|
|
|
|
Fuck L. Ron Hubbard and
|
|
Fuck all his clones
|
|
Fuck all those gun-toting
|
|
Hip gangster wannabes
|
|
|
|
Learn to swim
|
|
|
|
Fuck retro anything
|
|
Fuck your tattoos
|
|
Fuck all you junkies and
|
|
Fuck your short memory
|
|
|
|
Learn to swim
|
|
|
|
Fuck smiley glad-hands
|
|
With hidden agendas
|
|
Fuck these dysfunctional,
|
|
Insecure actresses
|
|
|
|
Learn to swim
|
|
|
|
'Cause I'm praying for rain
|
|
And I'm praying for tidal waves
|
|
I wanna see the ground give way
|
|
I wanna watch it all go down
|
|
|
|
Mom, please flush it all away
|
|
I wanna see it go right in and down
|
|
I wanna watch it go right in
|
|
Watch you flush it all away
|
|
|
|
Time to bring it down again
|
|
Don't just call me pessimist
|
|
Try and read between the lines
|
|
|
|
I can't imagine why you wouldn't
|
|
Welcome any change, my friend
|
|
|
|
I wanna see it come down,
|
|
Burn it down
|
|
Suck it down
|
|
Flush it down
