Lyrics

Sun, Sun, Sun, burn down on me Atop this hill so I can see My skin boils red and scabs and stings But I must be witness to everything Fan the fire or face the crowd California's burning down Sitting in the middle of the sixth extinction Silently suggesting the investment in a generator I called you up because I thought you'd see it my way I looked for freedom and I found it on the highway No other options so I'm peeling out the driveway Sing those brand new ABCs ABC, 123, LMNO ABC, 123, LMNO ABC, 123, LMNO ABCDEFG I want so badly to be liked I ask myself, "Why was I nice?" I ask myself, "What should I do?" But all I know is white centrality My country served me horror coke My natural freedom up in smoke My pre-polluted fetus lead us Into the obscene, I mean I'm on a desert island and I ate up all the coral I was so hungry but I know that isn't normal, oh no But my behavior isn't anything but moral So unhappy! ABC! I called you up because we had a great connection You couldn't hear me 'cause of NSA protection But we'll unite before the very next election No abstentions! VOTE The ABCs ABCDEFG I called you up because I'd like to see it your way The bridge between us is behind a different doorway Thought I was looking but I don't know what to see Living in the new reality I'm on a desert island and I ate up all the coral I was so hungry but I know that isn't normal But my behavior isn't anything but moral ABCDEFGH ABC, 123, LMNO ABC, 123, LMNO ABC, 123, LMNO ABC, 123, LMNO
