The New Malevolents Lyrics by GogoPilot

Armageddon Lullabies

2005

I heard they put a man on the moon
I can’t believe it 'cause it’s so far away
When I can’t even get across town today
I heard they sent a satellite to Mars
But they can’t improve the efficiency of cars
Oh no, I can’t believe it, it can’t be true
But hey, what can I do?
And I heard they gave your little brother a gun
And sent him off to die in the sun – and sand
I hope he understands
But I can’t even afford a gallon of gas
Who knows, maybe today I’ll get up off my ass
And become gamefully under-employed – rejoice
And we’re oh so happy
And we’re oh so content
And we’re oh so excited
And welcome to the new malevolents
And they say that things are surely looking up – I don’t believe 'em
And they say that we will never self-destruct – it’ just untrue
If it could happen to anyone else then why not here and to me and you?
Well, I heard they let you go from your cushy job
You gave ‘em 20 years but that wasn’t enough
Well, someone has to pay for those executive homes out in L.A
I heard that now your living off Uncle Sam
Collecting checks with all the people you never could stand
And now you realize how the dog can bite the hand that needs
And we’re oh so happy
And we’re oh so content
I’ve lowered my expectations but I can’t afford my rent
And welcome to the new malevolents
