Lyrics
Pay No Mind (version 2)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
tonight the city is full of morgues
and all the toilets are overflowing
there's shopping malls ripping out from the walls
as they walk out from the manure
that's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
so give the finger to the folksinger
as he's....uh...y'know, doing his thing
on the radio
sales ride low thru the garbage-pail glow
the radio ghetto-blasting sun
that's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
so get out your lead-pipe pipe dreams
and get out your ten-foot flags
the insects are huge
the poison's all been used
the poison's all been used
that's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
