Destroy the Children Lyrics by Dick Valentine

Destroy the Children: An Acoustic Exploration of Uneasy Topics

0

So what have we learned
From this life they made us do?
I wasted all my time
On loving you
They lined us up
And paired off in twos
Laughing that they pulled off
This elaborate ruse
You control the world
When you control the news
And we refuse to choose
Leaving us no choice but to...
Destroy the children
Before they are the masters
Dressing in monkey suits
And causing their own disasters
And please
Make sure they suffer dearly
Because I don't suffer fools
Unless I state this more clearly
So what do we do
When we live and we don't learn
We throw our hearts in a fire
And watch them burn
They line us up
To wait here for our turn
For congrue with a taste
We can discern
You're never found guilty
If courts never adjourn
And let's use all of that money
We never earn to...
Destroy the children
Before they have the answer
And replace the singer-songwriter with
Autotune dancers
And please
Make sure they learn their lesson
Because it's clear they don't know
With whom they are messing
And before you cast me as the dunce
I am well aware I was a child once
With a destiny only ambition hunts
All you gentlemen are such royal cunts
Drawn like moths
To impossible stunts of love
So what do we do
When learned how to live
We give back all of the advice
We were too young to give
Dress our love up
With many an expletive
And pouring all of our love
Through a rusty sieve as we...
Destroy the children
Before they destroy each other
And imprison Lindsay Lohan
Before she becomes a mother
And please
Like she's the virgin Mary
Polluting our souls
With Hollywood dysentery
