Bread and Circuses

First released on All of Life is Piss and again on Arkancide.

Lyrics

I'm bored unless there's something dying
Pour the wine and close the blinds then
The television slays me
It knows that I'm it's baby

Entertain the worm that eats me
Chewing through the things I need
And no one needs to tell me, "hey man, that's not that's healthy" now/no

Bread and circuses
It's all it ever is to me... to me
Bread and circuses
It's all it ever is...
But all, all, all you need is the real thing
All, all, all you need is the real thing, yeah

Spellbound by the fanfare halftime
Girls belong along the sidelines
That is what they taught me
Yes that's the shit that haunts me

Who came and took away my feelings
Replaced them with this Xanax feeling
This is what we asked for
oh yes it's what you asked for.

Bread and circuses
It's all it ever is to me... to me
Bread and circuses
It's all it ever is...
But all, all, all you need is the real thing
All, all, all you need is the real thing
All, all, all you need is the real thing
All, all, all you need is the real thing, yeah

Bread and circuses
It's all it ever is to me... to me
Bread and circuses
It's all it ever is...
But all, all, all you need is the real thing
All, all, all you need is the real thing
All, all, all you need is the real thing
All, all, all you need is the real thing, yeah

All, all, all you need is the real thing, yeah
All, all, all you need is the real thing
All, all, all you need is the real thing

oh yes it's what you asked for.
