Lyrics

I wanna burn all of my clothes
And drown a bigot in the smoke
I wanna take back every word
That I ever fucking wrote

I wanna watch the ocean waves
Sink a tanker to the bottom
In the middle of the night
When nobody's watching

I want death
I want calamity
I want the whole damn world to see
What I'm seeing when I see
What I'm seeing

I want to lay beneath the grass
So I never leave a mark
I want to exhale oxygen
Like a tree out in the park

I want to watch death like a tidal wave
Wash away reality
It may have been a real good fun for you
But it's been all too real for me

I want death
I want calamity
I want the whole damn world to see
What I'm seeing when I see
I want blood
I want a thousand year flood
Don't ask me why I want it
I just want it just because

Get em ???

What brings young men down this path
Oh lord am I a stranger
Both my folks are from Illinois
I never thought I'd be in danger

But I want death
I want calamity
I want the whole damn world to see
What I'm seeing when I see
And I want blood
I want a thousand year flood
Don't ask me why I want it
I just want it just because

“Long ago in another century,
Hank Hill uttered this holy verse.
He said, "You're not making Christianity better.
You're making rock and roll worse."”
