lyrics

I saw a rat kicked to death the other day
Splattered blood all over the pavement
Its head bashed in and a smile on its face and I thought
Hey, why not me?

Ooh I’m pulsing,
Underground movement
Ooh I’m shaking
Now is the time for us mutants

Ran into Imps and Jesters and the Judas Bunch
Sitting down to drink a Bloody Mary brunch
Trash burns all day long
Hey, why not me?

Skyscrapers reaching up up up
Tombstones cracking up

I passed a man, missing his face
He asked if I thought it could be replaced
I said I knew just the place
And watched as he slipped into in-between spaces

Wedding rings, pawned and bought
I forgot everything I was ever taught
Struck down, forced below
I placed the coins on my tongue -- I’m ready to go

Jowel-faced ghouls speak to me
Asking if I have time for the almighty
Pamphlets passed between hands
That lost all feeling

I had a dream where I died the other day
Saw my body splattered on the pavement
Atoms split, coins scattered
Hey, is this me?
