[00:12.33] They put angels in the electric chair
[00:15.36] The electric chair, the electric chair
[00:22.27] Straight up angels in the electric chair
[00:25.56] The electric chair, the electric chair
[00:32.42] They put angels in the electric chair
[00:35.80] The electric chair, the electric chair
[00:42.53] Straight up angels in the electric chair
[00:46.11] The electric chair, the electric chair
[00:52.84] And no one knew or no one cared
[00:56.12] But burning stars lit up their hair
[00:59.66] And burning stars lit up their hair
[01:02.78] And crawled to heaven on golden stairs
[01:15.76] And oh, how we to and fro
[01:19.04] To and fro, to and fro
[01:26.35] Oh, how we to and fro
[01:29.08] To and fro, to and fro
[01:36.39] Oh, how we to and fro
[01:39.12] To and fro, to and fro
[01:46.45] Oh, how we to and fro
[01:49.37] To and fro, to and fro
[01:57.20] This our torched estates
[02:16.08] We're your sweet mistakes
[03:33.87] And all them vulgar kings on their dirty thrones
[03:44.02] Who among us will avenge Ms. Nina Simone?
[03:55.07] And all them vulgar kings on their dirty thrones
[04:06.18] Who among us will avenge Ms. Nina Simone?
[04:38.43] There's fresh meat in the club tonight
[04:41.96] God bless our dead marines
[04:44.68] Someone had an accident above the burning trees
[04:51.15] While somewhere distant, peacefully
[04:54.54] Our vulgar princes sleep
[04:57.98] Dead kids don't get photographed
[05:01.00] God bless our dead marines
[05:07.93] The hungry and the hanged
[05:11.10] The damaged and the done
[05:14.23] Striving 'long this spinning rock
[05:17.73] Tumbling past the sun
[05:20.70] Get through this life without killing anyone
[05:27.21] And consider yourself golden
[05:37.15] Lost a friend to cocaine
[05:40.33] Couple friends to smack
[05:43.32] Troubled hearts map deserts
[05:46.35] And they rarely do come back
[05:49.48] Lost a friend to oceans
[05:53.06] Lost a friend to hills
[05:55.48] Lost a friend to suicide
[05:58.66] Lost a friend to pills
[06:01.73] Lost a friend to monsters
[06:04.41] Lost a friend to shame
[06:07.91] Lost a friend to marriage
[06:10.89] Lost a friend to blame
[06:14.22] Lost a friend to worry
[06:16.58] And lost a friend to wealth
[06:19.77] Lost a friend to stubborn pride
[06:22.40] And then I lost myself
[06:28.96] I love my dog and she loves me
[06:34.76] The world's a mess and so are we
[06:40.66] She tumbles long green, muddy fields
[06:43.69] Sick with joy and glee
[06:46.66] And as she dreams sweet puppy dreams
[06:49.79] Whimpering gently
[06:55.75] There's fresh meat in the club tonight
[06:58.58] God bless our dead marines
[07:01.96] Someone had an accident above the burning trees
[07:07.81] While somewhere distant, peacefully
[07:10.70] Our vulgar princes sleep
[07:13.92] Dead kids don't get photographed
[07:16.79] God bless this century
[08:01.46] When the world is sick
[08:05.96] Can't no one be well?
[08:11.08] But I dreamt we was all beautiful and strong
[08:21.27] When the world is sick
[08:26.97] Can't no one be well?
[08:31.57] But I dreamt we was all beautiful and strong
[08:41.97] When the world is sick
[08:46.76] Can't no one be well?
[08:51.65] But I dreamt we was all beautiful and strong...
