The Fly In Your Ointment

from 2600 AD: And Other Astonishing Tales by Mississippi Bones

lyrics

It’s the year of the bastard.
The new scum is back on the streets.
The dirge, the cure, one more time, tales of human waste.
Oh lonely city.
Spiders thrash.
Lust for life.
Listen to the chair leg of truth. It does not lie.
Bowel disrupter, set to prolapsed.
Get ready for the ride of your life.
Oh lonely city, gouge away.
I keep watching, with hope, the nightly news to see
If this city’s been accidentally sterilized in the middle of the night.
This remains a zero society.
I keep watching to see. Oh god, I hate this city.
A twisted hedonistic amalgam of consumerism, sex, drugs and violence.
The public is mindless.
The government’s spineless, and that damn smiler keeps on smiling. Oh lonely city
A lunatics job?
The complex of a god?
My better qualities, to name a few, but I’ve exposed charlatans, brought their campaigns down crumbling , and made the president shit himself, and it’s only noon.
Oh lonely city, gouge away.
I keep watching, with hope, the nightly news to see
If this city’s been accidentally sterilized in the middle of the night.
This remains a zero society.
I keep watching to see. Oh god, I hate this city.
No, there’s no such thing as truth.
I keep watching, with hope, the nightly news to see
If half the city’s been accidentally sterilized in the middle of the night. This remains a zero society.
I keep watching to see. Oh god, I hate this city.
