Repent!
This is the end.
America's jumped the shark
And nuked the fridge.
So pray your prayers
Rub your beads
Make amends
Because if God exists
He's going to want some answers.
Go ahead and explain
We want to be entertained
So bad
We turned the world into a car crash.
Think on your sins
Get past your feelings.
Are you happy now?
Do you know what you did?
The world is on fire
But you don't care anyway
Since you finished Atlas Shrugged last week.
The people have spoken so loud
Now they don't have a voice
It's not enough to choose
You gotta make the right choice.
It's not a protest vote.
You protest yourself.
It wasn't Pablo
Who moved jobs to Mexico.
There's no war on Christmas.
No Hilary Hit List.
No Alt-Right.
No way to fix this.
So tell your kids
You baby boomed them again.
You didn't think it would happen.
Tell of a future that no longer exists
Now there's a wolf in the White House
And you let him in.
The world is on fire
But you don't care anyway
Since you finished Atlas Shrugged last week.
The people have spoken so loud
Now they don't have a voice.
We trusted you
You fucked us.
I don't want to live in this world anymore
If I have to share it with these fucking people
You'll get what you deserve
You deserve all that you get
Repent!

Won't someone tell Johnny he can't wave the flag
The same time that he hides behind it?
That mental acrobat Is a modern patriot
In a nation under God.
These colors don't run.
Give 'em an inch,
They'll take your job.
But we know the Christian thing to do -
Deny to those what we ourselves never earned.
Welcome to the new United States
What may shock you, to most, just looks the same
Won't someone tell Lenny he can't shoot his gun
Just when and wherever that he wants?
Of course, you have rights
But you're scaring the shit out of everyone.
Don't confuse amendments one and two.
Just tend to your rabbits
And parrot whatever it is you heard on Fox News.
Welcome to the new United States
What may shock you, to most, just looks the same.
Won't someone tell Daryl that they love him?
I don't think anyone ever did.
It's proof positive that you gotta hug your kids.
Now with all the lies
The dog whistle slogans
The free speech martyrs
On crosses of ad hominem...
He's just a reflection
Of what's always been
Right beneath the surface.
Welcome to the new United States
What may shock you, to most, just looks the same
Welcome to the new United States
We hope you enjoy our every day.

I wanna know what your accountant knows.
I wanna know when you watch your TV shows.
So I can throw a fucking bomb into your living room
Just to say "Hey, I live here too!"
I wanna know what your priest knows
I wanna know what God says when he talks to you
"Kill the poor, I'll sort the rest. Your sins are different.
You're only human but you're my favorite."
I wanna know what your donors know.
I wanna know what freedom really means to you.
You're free to serve but not to wed?
You're free to work but not get sick?
You're free to take two to the chest (on your way to class)?
I wanna see the guillotine at dawn.
I wanna see the look on their faces
Turn from righteous, indignant to fear and confusion
When it all turns
When we come to collect.
I can't look anymore
But I'm transfixed
In a state of panic in Massachusetts.
You can be so bold
So sure you're right
But this is us now
The Mississippi of the first world.

The Twist

Do the twist in the twisting outfit
The loose tie with, the loose limp wrists
Lift your dress enough to show me those shins
Let your hair stick to your forehead
Did you blush then when our hips touched?
I can't tell, you're already red
Am I right? Will you give me the signs,
Is that pink mist or just lit dry ice?
So twist and whisper the wrong name
I don't care nor do my ears
Twist yourself around me
I need company I need human heat
I need human heat
Lets pretend I'm attractive and then
You won't mind, you can twist for a while
It's the night, I can be who you like
And I'll quietly leave before it gets light
So twist and whisper the wrong name
I don't care nor do my ears
Twist yourself around me
I need company I need human heat
I need human heat
I need human heat
I need human heat
I need human heat
I need--
Twist and whisper the right name
Oh baby, please
The twist is that you're just like me
You need company, you need human heat
You need human heat
In the evening, a-ha
