Mr. Pipe and Slippers

Welcome to a neighborhood without a story
A tired, aimless, spineless, lifeless glory
We start our tale on the fresh cut lawn
Of this nuclear family in purgatory

Mr. Pipe and Slippers settles in after a
Long, hard day doing busy work
His wife wears a smile so thin
You can really tell she has a life to burn

The paper says we're at war
But that means nothing anymore

It's the beginning of the end for me
In this present I don't wanna see
Stepford wives brandishing their knives
No, I've never felt less free

In comes the atom bomb of
A person that I am
I put a big, fat crater
In their suburban plans

I'm treated like a mutant
Not free from prying eyes
I try to hide my tricks and lies
But they seem to see through my disguise

The paper says we're at war
But that means nothing anymore

It's the beginning of the end for me
In this present I don't wanna see
Stepford wives brandishing their knives
No, I've never felt less free

The paper says we're at war
But that means nothing anymore

It's the beginning of the end for me
In this present I don't wanna see
Stepford wives brandishing their knives
No, I've never felt less free
