Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's so easy to laugh at yourself
When all those jokes have already been written
Seems like another vain attempt
To let yourself fall out of the oven
[Chorus]
Holy mountains
They look so tired
And it's a perfect day
To lock yourself inside
[Verse 2]
Who you foolin' if the fools are right?
It's the same thing
But it's almost as different
Hard to tell when it pacifies your mind
Leaves you stranded with a broken engine
Lazy desert looks so mangled
Let me drown in a convalescent bliss
[Bridge]
Get up from your bed of rest
It's been a long time since you've lived
But the static in your mind
Leaves you hollow and unkind
With a shock electric wave
Turns you on
[Verse 3]
You've been flunked out of the devil's house
Delinquent hygienes are so abrasive
And some distortion that's never been known
And on the treadmill you'll be running forever
[Chorus]
Holy mountains
They look so tired
And it's a perfect day
To lock yourself inside
[Outro]
Be gone
Be gone
