Lyrics

Napoleon The Broker went out looking for some heat
He said, "man, don't ever let 'em think you catch what you eat"
Then along came junior lawman with his polyester gun
By the time the night was quiet they were soaking up the sun
So they went and made a mess of some society affair
Where Lady Mary tripped out of her little lady chair
And the servants started serving up that good Chateau Neuf
That's about the time the teen bride went and lined up the good stuff
Everybody's headin for the countryside
Ma and pa are paying for your helicopter rides
And the television's saying you've got to stay inside
Let's find a better place to hide
Well the lawman and Napoleon went sniffing up that stuff
Til Junior got too handsy with an artisanal cream puff
And Mary went canary and called Queen Jane
Who said, "you're father's getting nervous so we're sending the plane"
Everybody's headin for the countryside
Ma and pa are paying for your aeroplane rides
And the business men are saying to buy low and sell high
Let's find a better place to hide
Sirens don't make a sound when you're 45 Floors off the ground
Flashing lights in the night make it brighter
For the poseur playing Hozier on his terrace uptown
The sweet pretty things are not in bed now of course
Their eyes look like moonpies and they're all masters in discourse
But The Broker's only joker's falling onto his knees
And crying please don't let me die here with the rest of the plebs
Everybody's headin for the countryside
Ma and pa are paying for the rest of your life
And the president is sayin' shit that sounds like he's out of his mind
Let's find a better place to
Everybody's headin for the countryside
Ma and pa are paying for us all to get high
And it's better not to mention that the planet is burning alive
Let's find a better place to hide
Let's find a better place to hide
Let's find a better place to hide
