Elephant Bones

Lord, let’s send down some angels And they better have guns Cause everybody’s crazy down here On everybody’s drugs Casinos, floor glows, stock shows Where white trash goes to die Hos push carts Crackhead squirrels, and birds too drunk to fly Keep dancing, it’s the end of the world She said “Oh baby do the end of the world” C’mon baby it’s the end of the world She says “Smile! Do the end of the world!” Keep dancing to the end of the world She said “Oh baby it’s the end of the world” C’mon baby it’s the end of the world She says “Smile! It’s the end of the world!” And they send down some astronauts To study our bones Through the miles of garbage Beneath all the junk that we own Carbon dating beer cans, condoms, and twinky wrappers We was something beautiful baby What the hell happened Keep dancing, it’s the end of the world She said “Oh baby do the end of the world” C’mon baby it’s the end of the world She says “Smile! Do the end of the world!” If you were worried that they’d skin you too For new tennis shoes Or a couch that fits the motif of the living room And doesn’t clash with your business suit I wanna be in a museum, Stuffed and in a realistic position like I’m huntin Callin someone or buyin somethin Way too busy to look up and see what was comin Keep dancing, it’s the end of the world She said “Oh baby do the end of the world” C’mon baby it’s the end of the world She says “Smile! Do the end of the world!” I want my bones kept next to someone of cultural significance Like Fonzi or William Shatner Yeah, somebody famous like Gilbert Godfrey or the dog from Frasier That caveman they found? He was a punk, I knew him in High School
