lyrics

The Pop Machine

Omg ....
Everybody working on stuff
That doesn’t matter
And all lives scatter
In the dust
And didn’t that leave a mark?
And maybe make a spark
Marvel Universe after dark
And Pavlov’s dogs get in line
And make a point to bark

The pop machine
Ask what more do you need to see?
Bombs to believe

Omg...
So make a mistake
And head where you didn’t wanna be
And then try to connect
What you didn’t wanna see
To what you believe
The DACA referee
All the rappers lovin’ Santa Claus
Brisket in the bathroom stalls
Here’s the tooth fairy
Earth overshoot
Thank you Mars
A Brooklyn canner
Makes a dent
In the redemption stars

The pop machine
The pop machine

Omg...
The bitter pill
Of a thousand stars
Burning in the sky
The twilight fires
And the after hours
Breathe in breathe out
The iron lung of lust
And color bars
Take your wasted vote
And please and thank you
Please and thank you Mars
Thank you all

The pop machine
Ask what more do you need
To see?
Bombs to believe
The pop machine
The pop machine
Ask what more do you need
To see?
