lyrics

ARSEHOLES

A horseback rider High on a hill
Is a silhouette moving Against the new sky
Its appears as it is Why are the follies Of man like shadows
The words that flow From his poison pen
Or rather through cheap Microphones
Truth and lies Are all we can see
From this mountain of words That rise from beneath
The mouths of babes
Celebrity talks And I’d rather walk

Arseholes are everywhere
There’s romance and action Science and fiction
So many genres And God botherers And mouths to feed

Arseholes are everywhere
They sit in small rooms
And the yellow walls speak
Here comes the spin doctor
He’s looking real good
We’re so overwhelmed
He’s got digital compositors
So nothing looks real

Arseholes are everywhere
They’re sitting in judgment
They’re sitting in pairs
They don’t say much
They got a gift for true silence
As quiet as death
It kills off the room
It kills off the womb
If walls could speak
Arseholes

The closer I get to the other side
I just want to walk in the shadows of him

The closer I get to the other side
The closer I get to the feelings I hide
I just look around and my friends have all died
I just want to walk in the shadows of him

The closer I get to the other side
I just don’t want to walk in the shadows of trees
I just want to walk in the shadows of him

Estoy en el Golfo de Méjico
Se está Calentando, y más lento
Allí en el Golfo de Méjico
estamos perforando con más profundidad que sabras
Estoy en el Golfo de Méjico
Hay cinco millones de barriles que rebosan
Alli en el Golfo de Méjico
Horizonte de aguas profundas, siguen con la fuga allí bajo,
Estoy en el Golfo de Méjico
Glen Campbell cantó Galveston en el espectáculo
Alli en el Golfo de Méjico
Se está Calentando, cada vez mas lento

I cried for justice You cried for me They push cathedrals into the sea
I cried for justice We let it be They start the wars to make us all free
I cried for justice You cried for me They build more oil wells under the sea
I cried for justice
