lyrics

Hangin with the sneaker pimps
Eatin up some jumbo shrimps
We're fillin up before the civil wars
It's pretty ugly a fine mess
Says military intelligence
Signin up to fight the civil wars

Cuz what we need, what we want
is another idiot savant
and clean coal to light our friendly fires
our piano players take the stand
while pounding on their baby grands
they never knew that it was science fiction

There's soft rocks in our water beds
We're dancin to the living dead
That's who came back from civil wars
Business ethics, airline food
none of it does any good
trying to shut down the civil wars

Cuz what we need, what we want
is another idiot savant
and clean coal to light our friendly fires
our piano players take the stand
while pounding on their baby grands
they never knew that it was science fiction
