Ænema

 

Some say the end is near

Some say we’ll see Armageddon soon

I certainly hope we will

I sure could use a vacation from this

 

Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of

Freaks

 

Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call L.A.

The only way to fix it is to flush it all away

Any fucking time. Any fucking day

Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay

 

Fret for your figure and

Fret for your latte and

Fret for your lawsuit and

Fret for your hairpiece and

Fret for your Prozac and

Fret for your pilot and

Fret for your contract and

Fret for your car

 

It’s a

Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of

Freaks

 

Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call L.A.

The only way to fix it is to flush it all away

Any fucking time. Any fucking day

Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay

 

Some say a comet will fall from the sky

Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves

Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still

Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits

 

And some say the end is near

Some say we’ll see Armageddon soon

I certainly hope we will

I sure could use a vacation from this

 

Stupid shit, silly shit, stupid shit

 

One great big festering neon distraction,

I’ve a suggestion to keep you all occupied

 

Learn to swim, learn to swim, learn to swim

 

Mom’s gonna fix it all soon

Mom’s comin’ ‘round to put it back the way it ought to be

 

Learn to swim

 

Fuck L. Ron Hubbard and

Fuck all his clones

Fuck all those gun-toting

Hip gangster wannabes

 

Learn to swim

 

Fuck retro anything

Fuck your tattoos

Fuck all you junkies and

Fuck your short memory

 

Learn to swim

 

Fuck smiley glad-hands

With hidden agendas

Fuck these dysfunctional,

Insecure actresses

 

Learn to swim

 

‘Cause I’m praying for rain

And I’m praying for tidal waves

I wanna see the ground give way

I wanna watch it all go down

 

Mom, please flush it all away

I wanna see it go right in and down

I wanna watch it go right in

Watch you flush it all away

 

Time to bring it down again

Don’t just call me pessimist

Try and read between the lines

 

I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t

Welcome any change, my friend

 

I wanna see it come down,

Burn it down

Suck it down

Flush it down
