did you hear about the lizard?
he ate downtown again
did you hear about the monkey?
he's found a new blonde, he's found a new blonde
did you hear about the space queen?
she wants to rule the world of men
and did you hear about the locust?
he's waiting for the comet, waiting for the bomb
did you hear about the lizard?
he ate downtown again
did you hear about the monkey?
he's found a new blonde, he's found a new blonde
did you hear about the robots?
they want to rid the world of men
and did you hear about the lobster?
he's waiting for the comet, waiting for the bomb

back to the sea

I've got your fire in my skin
and it wakes me from my dream
I want to put it out
I want to sleep again
I've got your fire in my lungs
and it hurts me as I breathe
I want to spit it out
I want to sleep again
Take me back to the sea
I've got your fire in my eyes
and it changes what I see
I want to put it out
I want to sleep again
Take me back to the sea

the king
03:25
|

she's so different from all I've seen
blonde and tall and long and lean
mess with her you'll see an ape get mean
she's my screen age jungle queen
she's a gift from the gods, I know
eyes so blue and skin like snow
I'll follow her wherever she goes
she's my screen age jungle rose
but when she looks at me
what does she see?
does she see this foolish brute
or does she see... the king
she's magic like a shaman's spell
it drives me crazy, the way she smells
she's my savior, she's my ticket to hell
she's my screen age jungle belle
she's so different from all I've seen
she's a gift from the gods, I know
she's magic like a shaman's spell
she's my screen age jungle queen

Where I'm from
we have no love,
we have no film,
we have no flowers

waiting for the comet
02:50
|
|||
killing time and counting hours
living at the bottom of the chain
waiting for our will to power
waiting for our chance to reign
we make plans and plot disasters
we live beneath the boots of men
but someday soon we’ll be the masters
someday soon we’ll own this land
waiting for the comet…
waiting for the bomb…
all it takes it radiation
to bring us hope and give us power
we’ll grow and change with our mutations
we’ll grow and change and then we’ll tower
over all that stand before us
we’ll rule as kings and queens and princes
our empires will be fair and just
our empires will know no fences
waiting for the comet…
waiting for the bomb…
why won’t the days go any faster?
we’re stuck here at the bottom of the chain
waiting to be lords and masters
waiting for our chance to reign
where is the saviour radiation?
our patience is wearing thin
we can’t rise without mutations
we can’t rise without without without
waiting for the comet…
waiting for the bomb…
