Once when walking in the woods |
|
I came upon a burning bush. |
|
"What wants you vision?", says I |
|
And it spoke, and I quote, |
|
"Apocalypse can go down easy |
|
You gotta know it's an acquired taste. |
|
You're sacrifice can't please me |
|
I'm dead set to destroy this place. |
|
Hip hip for imperfection, |
|
I want to make a mess. |
|
I've got a secret theory |
|
That disarray works best |
|
And though it don't work often |
|
Oh my God when it does- |
|
Watch as the outburst softens |
|
It's had its way with us. |
|
They're scared of the silence |
|
But be scared-er of the sound. |
|
Hearts are not only beating |
|
They are all counting down. |
|
You're not ready for disorder. |
|
You're not ready for decay. |
|
Have you been staving |
|
Time and aging |
|
Sloughing dead skin away? |
|
I must confess I said with a smile, |
|
"I'm frightened as a child. |
|
And I suspect by |
|
The smoke in your eye |
|
You're thinking 'So am I.' |
|
Apocalypse can go down easy |
|
You gotta know it's an acquired taste. |
|
Our sacrifice can't please thee |
|
You're dead set to destroy this place. |
|
If the aspirin you take |
|
Doesn't cure your headache |
|
Why do docs propose |
|
The headache's in your head? |
|
And if the orgasms we fake |
|
Take their toll and take the cake |
|
Why do they suppose |
|
We're better off in bed? |
|
And then the bush said, |
|
"You and I, we were meant to be together. |
|
You and I, we are gonna hang together. |
|
You and I, we are going down together." |
