lyrics

Come all ye pretty posy maids,
enjoy the bed the spring displays.
You know what the wise man says?
Nothing.
They turned the big collider off
I think it made the banks go soft
so lift your dress for donkey rites
We might as well stay up all night

When you add the weights all up,
atomic and the other stuff
don't forget to factor in
the spiritual of reverse spin

Five notes from Beauty:
all talking to me,
all at once in rhyming time
in intervals that are divine

Buy anthrax on the rabbit skin
to wrap your baby bunting in.
They turned the big collider off
I think it's made the banks go soft

The end of time grows near
I'm also running out of beer
In the future, there will be no future
