Repent! 04:59
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!

Welcome 02:10
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 03:02
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 Extrasupervery...
