lyrics

Aspartame

He said wash my hands in boiling oceans
Pull out fish from poison seas
Take twice your daily dose
Administer the seven seas

A victim of the super highway
Information casualty
Take insecurities
And shoot the audience

Hey
Jump out of this world
Jump of your skin
Jump of the dream were living in
Get of the sky
Crawl under a rock
Suspend your beliefs there’s a war coming

Dance the dance the patriot conga
Join your arms if you still got them
Dance the dance obituary samba
Don’t know dance the corporate rumba
Repeat

I’ve been drowning in lake superior aspartame and calorie free
I’ve been drowning in lake superior aspartame and calorie free

Jump out of this world jump out of your skin
Jump out of the scene you are obscene
Get out of the sky
Crawl under a rock
Their touch is like hysterical surgeons
A thousand caresses will turn to bruises

Chorus 2
Dance the dance the patriot conga
Join your arms if you still got them
Dance the dance obituary samba
Do the dance the corporate rumba

Dance the dance to your corporate sponsor
To the tune of a trillion dollars
You don’t know the words you don’t have to sing them
Just dance the dance it’s your votes were after

Outro
I’ve been drowning in lake superior aspartame and calorie free
I’ve been drowning in lake superior aspartame and calorie free
The media wars
The wars for wages
Media sons for media gatherings
You’re aspartame and you’re calorie free
