The Fuses Have Been Lit
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.
Watch the skies, come in disguise,
Take more pills, Keep the lid on my life,
I got a little blue tube to give my views
Of a world in dischord, my mind's unmoved,
My nightmare scene's on TV screens;
Data uncertain "Information still being received,"
No deposit-no return!
No deposit-no return!
Win a trip to Mars, glow in the dark,
In the age of the plane I'm gonna go by car...
Run the red light, cower in the flashlight...
No time's enough to hid from the half life.
Fly sky high with my ghettoblaster, tune in-
Turn on to the latest disaster...
It's the land of do-as-you-please and I'm king!
Gotta get me some...Gotta get me some!
Here come the dreams that are split at the seams,
Better sew the sides, better get them dry cleaned,
Clears your head, clears your throat
"Buy now-pay later" It's the sensible vote,
Not built to last-built to burn...
"Contribute! Contribute! send all you earn,
No deposit-no return!
No deposit-no return!
Health and happiness guaranteed, free seven day trial:
"It's all you need" every hour on the hour
"This is...the voice of fate" it's the voice of power-
E104, E122, E127, E142...
Here's to the king of the 1990s...
Give me everything...give me everything!
This is the day, this is the hour;
We need the power.
This is this, this ain't something else,
This...is this; the fuses have been lit!
