We're on the way to the grave I wish I had more time We're on the way to the grave I wish I had more time Bombs off, crooked crimes. Cooking up, cooking up the lies Crew cut and boot cut, we got the blues, recruit the boots, don't cut the truth out Bombs off, crooked crimes. Cooking up, cooking up the lies Crew cut and boot cut, we got the blues, recruit the boots, don't cut the truth out We clean the slate, leave the waste It's someone else's problem now We clean the slate, leave the waste It's someone else's problem Bombs off, crooked crimes. Cooking up, cooking up the lies Crew cut and boot cut, we got the blues, recruit the boots, don't cut the truth out Bombs off, crooked crimes. Cooking up, cooking up the lies Crew cut and boot cut, we got the blues, recruit the boots, don't cut the truth out Bombs off, crooked crimes.

Old bee man, why the empty hives? Old curious bee man, is it time to cry? Poor queen bee, much room for a throne Poor miraculous queen bee, they left you all alone Fly away honey bee, there's blood in your eyes Why are you dying? Why are you dying? Cell phone and aliens, bad pesticides Why are you dying? Why are you dying? Waggle dance, waggle dance, waggle buzz buzz buzz buzz Let's dance, let's dance just because cause cause cause. Old bee man, what will you do now? Old curious bee man, the pollen's falling round Poor work bee, you can't find a job Poor diligent work bee, pollinate your god. Fly away honey bee, there's blood in your eyes Why are you dying? Why are you dying? Cell phone and aliens, bad pesticides Why are you dying? Why are you dying? Waggle dance, waggle dance, waggle buzz buzz buzz buzz Let's dance, let's dance just because cause cause cause.

Flip on the TV to see what the cretins want, drugs, sex and problems, and it all seems so fake to me Flip up the front page to see who the newspaper raped yesterday while the politics procrastinate There must be a better place for the days that you put in your pocket and forget about Wrong number, I'll thumb her down, maybe she'll take me to the end of the fight, while I'm waiting I'll be up with the creatures who sit up in the bleachers and sip on their soda pops while the umpires calling me out Oh my teacher, I'll try to beseech her to come back and tell me the answers to all of my tests Well it’s best that we both stay depressed You're crazy for leaving and I'm crazy for asking what's next What's next, what's next, what's next? Tell me Clean up the spilled milk, in Rorschach Tests I see guilt, hand-me-down sympathy, it just won't do the same for me Fill up your insides with all that you can't hide in safety deposit boxes, they're so dangerous There must be a remedy for the faces we make when we don't really mean it Wrong answer, strong cancer will take her away before we had the chance to say goodbye, I'll be up with All of the crazies whose theories might save me, I'll wake up in a padded room and cry out, "What took ya so long?" I'm not lazy, but my motives seem hazy, procrastinate, and walk the plank, and find out where they buried the chest Well it’s best that we both stay depressed You're crazy for leaving and I'm crazy for asking what's next What's next, what's next, what's next? Tell me
