Like Flies
We're at a place in history
Where the bar is at an all time low
We've applauded mediocrity
'Til there is no lower we can go
Art has no place
In this world of supersize
Follow the leader to the latest pile of shit
Like flies... like flies
Those who peddle it
Sold their own souls long ago
They would not know the difference
Between Vin Diesel and Van Gogh
They stare at me with envy
With their big green bugging eyes
Spreading filth, buzzing all around my head
Like flies... like flies
Like flies... like flies
Feast or famine, peace or war
Life will get you in the end
Sex, drugs, powerlines and vaccinations
Something's going to do you in
There ain't no way of stoppin'
Death, when it's time for your demise
All my heroes and friends are droppin'
Like flies
Like flies
Like flies
Like flies
Like flies
Where the bar is at an all time low
We've applauded mediocrity
'Til there is no lower we can go
Art has no place
In this world of supersize
Follow the leader to the latest pile of shit
Like flies... like flies
Those who peddle it
Sold their own souls long ago
They would not know the difference
Between Vin Diesel and Van Gogh
They stare at me with envy
With their big green bugging eyes
Spreading filth, buzzing all around my head
Like flies... like flies
Like flies... like flies
Feast or famine, peace or war
Life will get you in the end
Sex, drugs, powerlines and vaccinations
Something's going to do you in
There ain't no way of stoppin'
Death, when it's time for your demise
All my heroes and friends are droppin'
Like flies
Like flies
Like flies
Like flies
Like flies
