lyrics

[we all spent summer with…]
& we all spent summer with the trees straight loving us

if Mother Earth was young enough
i’d try to consummate a scheme to protect this green
so our kids could see how similar they are to baby goats

and we’d hate to all grow up without you
even though i wondered if your breath stung back
the yellow jacket when you screamed

(credit card to scrape the smell of spring off the spot of the sting)

THANK YOU GOD FOR ALL THIS BLING!
Where would I be without the bloody diamond ring I had to buy for her to prove that I’m in love?

~ DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER DANGER ~

danger? what?
is this a warning of the danger we will find if remain to live pretending we are blind to the suffering of every living creature and The Earth?

no! not at all! it’s just an invite to a party to rock the planet and to die before we’re forty!

HEY! it’s BYOB, so let’s get fucked up!
if i’m awake, you’ll find me shitting in the ocean!
or smoking mad trees — burning that shit to the ground!

yo, ashes to ashes!
well look what I found:
under this spot that yesterday was just a nature preserve
there’s a nest of baby eagles and they all got burned!
and they’re still squirming and tweeting; party animal extraordinaire!

“Hey, Joey’s passed out — stuff those birds down his underwear!”

WOW. I don’t remember anything from last night.
Ugh, jeez… well, I’m all out of cash and this place is trashed,
so I’m guessing that I had a good time.

There’s vomit on my collar and the sea is covered in black,
so I’m pretty sure we had a great time.

So there’s a haze in the air and you can’t breathe out there,
that’s how you know you had a good time.

If the trees are all cut and there’s magic marker on your butt,
that’s how you know you had a good time.

If you have a mouth full of blood and a brand new tiger-skin rug,
you’re pretty certain that you had a good time.

You splash your face in the sink and recall your pets are extinct,
that’s how you know you had a good time.

A kangaroo stuffed with birds? Holy shit that’s absurd!
I guess we really had a good time!

Can you believe all we did?
After a party this epic, I guess no one else can ever have a good time.
