Idle thought leads to full throttle screaming

And the welfare is asphyxiating

Mass confusion is all the new rage

And it's creating a feeding ground
G#
For the bottom feeders of

C# G#
True sounds of maniacal laughter
C# F#
And the deaf mute is misleading the choir

The punchline is a natural disaster

And it's sung by the unemployed
C# G#
Fight fire with a riot
