So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell
Now you've got something to die for
You don't mean it
Ziggy played guiltar
Waking from his eyes
Agent Orange Skies hang bright
Well ya got me workin' so hard lately
Set me off like dynamite
The lunatic is on the grass
Our knives say "we're making way for this, the ending."
Pressed the seven sequenced silver panic buttons
Take a souvenir and stop your staring
See the animal in his cage that you built
It's colder than before
I wrote the words to this song on the back of a photograph
In the face of change
A groan of tedium escapes me
There was crust in the metal shell
Once there was boy who had vibrant glow
Well it's happening
