lyrics

Why would I bother to get out of bed
When it's minus fifteen
And the world is gonna come to an end in a year and a half

Think I'm permanently damaged in the head
Frozen pizza and ecstasy
formed into a toxic sludge and burned a hole in my brain

Crazy – voices in my head make me
Crazy – the whole fucking world's going
Crazy – it's no wonder I wanna stay high

Bombs going off in the markets in Spain
And there's buckets of oil in the rain
It's a wonder I don't wanna die

Why get excited by coming of age
To inherit a legacy of
Bottomed out bottom lines and a minimum wage

No surprise you've a low credibility line
Saying drugs are illegal from the back rooms
While doing lines off the tits of a whore

Crazy (etc)

Why would I bother to try to unwind
When we're all out of time
And the world is gonna come to an end in a year and a half

Crazy (etc)

Appalled – Kettled in with our backs to the wall
Management's got us all by the balls
In the 21st Century
