Album: The Germ

Just when you thought it was safe to open your eyes the ozone's depleted.
Just when you thought it was safe to breathe the oxygen's polluted.
Just when you thought it was safe to drink the water's contaminated.
Just when you thought it was safe to eat the food's irradiated.
Just when you thought it was safe to think your thoughts have been invaded.
Just when you thought it was safe to fuck your diseases are mutated.

Turn on the radio, audio vomit,
Sweetened to taste with whipped cream on it.
Spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down,
Just turns my stomach when I hear that sound.
TV's on and the brain goes off,
You know it's dangerous to think for yourself,
We've made a nation of illiterate bodybuilders,
Phone sex junkies, soap opera voyeurs.

She throws up her lunch 'cause she's so insecure
'cause everything she sees makes her so unsure,
Wondering if she's skinny enough to be beautiful,
Gotta be a beanpole just to be desirable,
Get a tummy tuck and a nose job too,
Just to make sure she's pretty enough for you.

I don't know man, it's all just so hideous,
What makes this goddamned empty culture's brainwash so insidious?

Just when you thought it was safe to be buried your remains have been cremated.
Just when you thought it was safe to be free your rights are decimated.
Just when you thought it was safe to live you're dead
