Iridescent green liquid Dripping from a factory sealed cannister Not for pregnant women or the faint of heart Not for the ones who grip the stair bannister Only for the fit and the strong To help achieve maximum efficiency Only for those whose legs are long Enough to reach the stars from the ground they can only see Caution Warning Attention The flies are swarming Your flesh is rotting But your body keeps running Touch it to your lips And it'll grant you your best Implanted from the laboratory Take it all down and put yourself to the test Nothing can stop you now You're not running on empty anymore Your stomach turns sour But you're no longer a bore Now you've got the means Now you've got the scene Now you've got the capacity Now you can succeed But only because of test tubes And only because of beakers Only because of brakers Only because of white coats Only because of med school Only because of playing the part of the fool

Success in a Can (Warning: Radioactive)
Iridescent green liquid Dripping from a factory sealed cannister Not for pregnant women or the faint of heart Not for the ones who grip the stair bannister Only for the fit and the strong To help achieve maximum efficiency Only for those whose legs are long Enough to reach the stars from the ground they can only see Caution Warning Attention The flies are swarming Your flesh is rotting But your body keeps running Touch it to your lips And it'll grant you your best Implanted from the laboratory Take it all down and put yourself to the test Nothing can stop you now You're not running on empty anymore Your stomach turns sour But you're no longer a bore Now you've got the means Now you've got the scene Now you've got the capacity Now you can succeed But only because of test tubes And only because of beakers Only because of brakers Only because of white coats Only because of med school Only because of playing the part of the fool
