Lyrics
Rooting For The Plague
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.
I don't know why, but it is a time for extermination
First one to put out the light gets a Camaro for graduation
Now I'm rooting for the plague
And I'm digging sirens' songs
The way I'm feeling now, it won't take long
I make my check out
I did as an accident bystander
Yeah, and I saw the Colossus of Rhodes putting grease to the belt sander
I watched the whole thing in large 'til it filled up with infection
Leaving nothing but the fish-head black
And the hallways long abandoned
And the view from where I'm standing is ambulance-enhancing
Now I'm rooting for the plague
And I'm digging sirens sound
The way I'm feeling now is going 'round
