Amoeba Lyrics by HappyHappy

Zozobra

2019

I became an amoeba
Tiny version of me
I started spawning some new ones
Until I’d created an army
I taught them how to be violent
And how to be lonely
I gave them bottom shelf liquor
And I told them to keep drinking

I sent them all off to college
To make their own money
They all came crawling back home
They were bitter and angry
So we created a virus
Got everyone coughing
Made all their livers shut down
While ours were expanding

Now you can’t ignore me
Whenever I call
I am your god, I’ll take your prayers
Whenever I want
And you were saying you were fine
We all knew it wasn’t true
They were checking your ID for an organ donor sticker
By the time that you’d walked through
The doors to the hospital
You were bleeding out and they said
That it looked critical

And I remembered my seventh grade birthday
How happy I must have felt
And I don’t think I ever remember feeling that happy
About anything else
Because there is poison in the water
There are bubbles in my blood
I have ten minutes left to live
Before my heart is going to pop

Now you can’t ignore me
Whenever I call
I am your god, I’ll take your prayers
Whenever I want
And I was saying I was fine
But we all knew it wasn’t true
They were checking my ID for an organ donor sticker
By the time that I’d walked through
The doors to the hospital
I was bleeding out and they said
That I looked stable for now

And I wanted you see how bad this really is
A physical manifestation of what I did
They gave me a turkey sandwich
Kept me overnight
I could hear the guy on the other side of the curtain start to die

Now you can’t ignore me
Whenever I call
I am your god, I’ll take your prayers
Whenever I want
