The World Is Over

lyrics

THE WORLD IS OVER

In extroverted seasonal appeal
there’s a different kind of heart is like a wheel
Where people come to play and seek relief
from the mega beta blessing of belief

Take home open office memo worry beads
to the mother/daughter combo set to breed
As they reinvent the cattle on the green
it’s the last filet of progress ever seen

People think they’ll know
People think they’ll feel
People stop and go
People to be real

People think they’ll know the world is over
People think they’ll feel the world is over
People stop and go the world is over
People to be real the world is over

And the silence fits the hard on that you be
an illiterate emotive pedigree
Corporation litigation cop a feel
in the momentary mayhem that congeal

Triple digit in the toilet at your feet
window dressing mondo liter and a beat
Says the father to the only son derail
get a move on get a fix on how to fail

Look above you, it’s development foreseen
by the mountains out of molehills out of means
Bottom feeders and their wives come up for air
and create a modern landscape of despair

And the capitol surrounding their remote
is the method of their madness and their vote
Has the landscape taken over its reward
or has judgment made a house call overboard?
