Bottoms up!! We?re on a sinking ship That?s rotted through; Weighed down by the six billion people Who make up this crew All affected with the tyranny
And at the end of the night? We?ll return to our somber sleepy lives Head back to work Rub our eyes and wonder ?Was it all in my mind?? Cause the rent
Long enough for such greedy men So raise the stakes and light the pyres Hoist up the offending liars And leave them for dead [Outro] Scream ?Sakes Alive!!? Scream ?Sakes Alive
This is a masquerade Of scoundrels, tramps, and thieves Who live only for the taking - Dressed up with masks on raring to go No longer art but a fashion
(The Chemistry of Confounding Life) at the center of a holy mess we encase the realm with pavement scheme, breed and shit and then feed off the dead
(Over at the Hadron) to let truth be told I'm quaking in my boots at the thought of black holes revealing themselves in the expanses of this old land
So here we stand So here we stand right on the brink Of all we know Billions of souls tied up in red tape By systems that don?t hold a grain of sand
Tonight let?s scream, For what should be some shared feelings: That love?s not lost; adventures remain; And we live for our own sakes These wages, jobs
(Oh, believe me- Your death will be most celebrated) I'm coming home! God, I'm coming home! To awaken the depths of blood to shake the rot from these
Well aren't you glad to be alive Had your brain took out when you were five Learned to respect your mum and dad And no, there's nothing wrong with that
