lyrics

i'll put the answers up to your eyelids
so you can show that you know big
even the devil doesn't work on the weekends
let's skip the act 'cus the plays rigged

well i don't wanna go to sleep
if everyone just works to play
and even if the hours keep insanity
the tolls will play but
be christian, religions, the corporate, the systems
are meant for people who have chosen to obey
up and over, day by day,
they try to pray the gay away
but faith is just a silly game
that spoiled kids have learned to play
addictions, restrictions, censor the wife and children
are meant for people who have chosen

i'll put your tips into a jar of reminders
baked goods and credit suppliers
even the devil has insurance providers
incase his fires retire

but i don't wanna go to sleep
if everyone just works to play
and even if the hours keep insanity
the tolls will play but
be christian, religions, the corporate, the systems
are meant for people who have chosen to obey
up and over, day by day,
they try to pray the gay away
but faith is just a silly game
that spoiled kids have learned to play but
addictions, restrictions, censor the wife and children
are meant for people who have chosen

hail me over, the moon sober
hail me over, the moon sober
hail me over, the moon sober
help me over, the moon sober
