The sun is high up in the sky and Im in my car Drifting down into the abattoir Do you see what I see dear? The air grows heavy. I listen to your breath Entwined together in this culture of death Do you see what I see dear? Slide on over here let me give you a squeeze To avert this unholy evolutionary trajectory Can you hear what I hear babe? Does it make you feel afraid? Everythings dissolving babe according to plan The sky is on fire the dead are heaped across the land I went to bed last night and my moral code got jammed I woke up this morning with a Frappucino in my hand I kissed you once. I kissed you again My heart it tumbled like the stock exchange Do you feel what I feel dear? Mass extinction darling hypocrisy These things are not good for me Do you see what I see dear? The line the God throws down to you and me Makes a pleasing geometry Shall we leave this place now dear? Is there someway out of here? I wake with the sparrows and I hurry off to work The need for validation babe gone completely berserk I wanted to be your Superman but I turned out such a jerk I got the abattoir blues I got the abattoir blues I got the abattoir blues Right down to my shoes abattoir blues... abattoir blues...
