about

This is a live demo. Imagination is needed to appreciate what this song could be at its full potential. A studio version is forthcoming.

lyrics

WE sleep. We graze.
Too deep. We are not amazed.

We are lazy, we are lazy.
We place out and out and out
We are lazy, we are lazy
We take out and out and out

Call Fat-rat-tat.
Laugh hard
We grasp despairingly
With our feeble arms
To cold scraps
IN a plastic maze
WHITE WHITE WHITE
Is the real rodent’s face

We are lazy, we are lazy.
And how much of this did we try to avoid?
We are lazy, we are lazy
And how much of this did we try to enjoy?
We are lazy, we are lazy.
We place out and out and out
We are lazy, we are lazy
We take out and out and out

Cause I’ve been around this fucking (nothing) world before
And I’m not about to scold you anymore.

This is what worry is, this is what worry is
This is what worries me.
We are lazy, we are lazy, we are...
renown.
