Mommy lost her pension so now she’s doing porn
They’re stroking it to the footage of you being born
& if it don’t make you sick then look at what we’re eating
We’re fed like a baby-bird, but who does the chewing?
& the KFC ain’t chicken
& the hero’s are dead
The babies wanna be gangsters
& kill what’s sacred
Well so be it, but
let’s not kill each other
Think what you’re gonna build
before you set it all on fire
Cause after the apocalypse when there’s Marshal Law
we can see who we eat first when we draw straws
To taste human flesh when nothing is left
When we’re cutting up that food, oh buddy I hope that it’s you
Because the KFC ain’t chicken
& the hero’s are dead
The babies wanna be gangsters
& kill what’s sacred
The music is automatic
& the car runs on blood
You can save your soul
but only if you believe in love
