Animals, lyrics
It was a party of fleas who dropped some tea into the sea,
Created a baby that left its mommy,
Now there is an elephant and donkey in the room,
So, lets ask, who’s the bigger a--?
A spark, a flare, lighting a camel, an affair,
Puff of smoke gone, what went wrong?
Bully the pulpit, who’s the culprit,
Line drawn and divided by two.
A state of iron bars but let’s call it a zoo,
Divided into a system of them vs you,
Don’t lose your autonomy,
Though everyone is still just a monkey.
Collectively a swarm of angry bees,
The brilliants of hatred and judgment,
The embellishment establishment pageant,
Yesteryears of days past are today’s fears.
Roar, hiss, bark, and bray,
Who’s the beast of the day?
Claws out, crowns up, a feral display,
Truth’s just a snack in the fray.
Buzz, sting, howl, and moo,
Swarm’s got a king to choose,
Cage or throne, it’s all a zoo,
Laughing at me, laughing at you.
Financiers, volunteers as November nears,
Comparisons, divisions of wealth’s occupations,
Frictions, contradictions, comedians,
Who will be the next king of the jungle?
Both proclaiming to be the blissful angel,
Tis the mating season’s beastial battle,
Birdies tweet all about it on their social,
Scandal! Scoundrel! Oh, look there’s a squirrel
Roar, hiss, bark, and bray,
Who’s the beast of the day?
Claws out, crowns up, a feral display,
Truth’s just a snack in the fray.
Buzz, sting, howl, and moo,
Swarm’s got a king to choose,
Cage or throne, it’s all a zoo,
Laughing at me, laughing at you.
The eternal feral quarrel circle,
The apex creatures are very territorial,
For the king or queen, gerrymandering,
The two-party system is the grand pyramid scheme.
Bunch of ---holes looking up and bunch of s--- looking down,
Kiss up, gallop, gossip, stirrup, who will win the crown?
In this cage, enrage, what’s on the front page?
Who’s saying what about minimum wage?
Roar, hiss, bark, and bray,
Who’s the beast of the day?
Claws out, crowns up, a feral display,
Truth’s just a snack in the fray.
Buzz, sting, howl, and moo,
Swarm’s got a king to choose,
Cage or throne, it’s all a zoo,
Laughing at me, laughing at you.
Outrage about an issue? The cockatoos will throw a horseshoe,
Here, eat this grass, here, pray at mass, or don’t,
They will provide an antidote,
Cheer, this one is such a deer, so sincere, so clear.
Ok, the political evolution will find a way to prey on the economic roadway,
Confusing rat race values, turn to the news and find out who will lose,
Here, oats for the goats. No, the grass is greener over there,
But be aware because there is a monster troll lair.
Roar, hiss, bark, and bray,
Who’s the beast of the day?
Claws out, crowns up, a feral display,
Truth’s just a snack in the fray.
Buzz, sting, howl, and moo,
Swarm’s got a king to choose,
Cage or throne, it’s all a zoo,
Laughing at me, laughing at you.
Despair not of this nightmare, the election will swear to another road,
The only condition for this prince is you must kiss this toad,
Bam, the payload full of taxes and other critter’s pensions,
Hurry up and cook this eagle, Thanksgiving is awaiting.
Tis the season for the hating, frustrating, debating,
Won, the elephants and donkeys’ parties are one hell of a celebration,
After all in this zoo, the keepers and guests are laughing at you.
Roar, hiss, bark, and bray,
Who’s the beast of the day?
Claws out, crowns up, a feral display,
Truth’s just a snack in the fray.
Buzz, sting, howl, and moo,
Swarm’s got a king to choose,
Cage or throne, it’s all a zoo,
Laughing at me, laughing at you.
