Lyrics

I'm here at breaking point Mind and body tired Those plans for happiness Have all expired The sales pitch from door to door Says feed the rich and hang the poor Twinkle twinkle little star Point me to the nearest bar I'll drown my sorrow with the rest Do your worst, I'll do my best Here I am, at breaking point I'm here at breaking point The pen has dropped Progress would be wonderful If only it would stop The internet is free to surf Measures intellect by girth Here come another email There goes another shemale Social media is a trend That will send us all Around the bend Heavy is the load Of a creature ill-disposed Of a man who finds the end Before the start It breaks your heart Stand with me at breaking point As riots hit the streets Another toppled government Will make the day complete There goes another border Here comes a new world order It's time to call it quits Before the future hits With the help of God and a few marines We'll blow this place to smithereens Here we are, at breaking point Heavy is the load Of a creature ill-disposed Of a man who finds the end Before the start It breaks your heart La la la la la la La la la la La la la la la la La la la la La la la la la la La la la la La la la la la la La la la la With the help of God and a few marines We'll blow this place to smithereens Here we are With the help of God and a few marines We'll blow this place to smithereens Here we are With the help of God and a few marines We'll blow this place to smithereens Here we are, at breaking point
