The Phoenix My brain is the best brain, And your brain is **** Why, with my faith in humanity gone Why do I lust for the comfort of others? Why do I lust for things? Me needs company, Me needs to hear your voice Me loves you!, do you loves me? Me needs a Job and Money, Me needs a car to drive Me needs my video game, Me needs my cigarettes Me needs a God to search for and never find, Me needs an enemy to fight Me needs my young women, Me needs to *** Me needs my drugs and sleeping pills, Me needs my Doctor right now! Me needs my psychiatrist, Me needs a happy brain. With all of our intelligence, why with all of our love and soul Are we putty in the hands of a man with a microphone, a nice big trusted man And god forbid he is on TV. Me loves the TV! TV tells me who I am Nothing makes one better than being seen by a lot of people Fame for fames sake, forget yourself and fall in love Be a happy little soldier. Me be a happy little soldier, Me do what I'm told Me be a republican, Me be a democrat Me says the pledge of allegiance, Me says grace Me salutes the flag, Me dies in wars Me rapes the women, Me kills the children Me drops the bomb, Me kills by fire Me watches reality TV, Me listens to pop music Me keeps my brain busy, Me be a good American! Why can I not find a person who knows what the **** they are talking about? Is it because I'm in Kentucky, Is it because they all be rednecking and hilljacking Is the world really like this? The world gets better the farther it is from me Separated from happiness only by distance, a conquerable foe- If not already bound in chains by me job and me family and me debt Or am I lying to myself Why can I not live in my brain and you live in yours Build up a fence and let the grass grow wild Disconnect the telephone lines and hoard food and water **** in an outhouse and wait for the apocalypse Sometimes - I wish The World would burn And from The Ashes The Dust would rise Without The Memories of anything At all.
