[Intro]
This is a call Tom at Nowkay Avenue;
I just wanna log on when he tells me, okay?
[Verse 1]
Too much information
Well I said you're good for nothing
Come on to the back
I said your needles count for something
Guess I'd better tell you now
Guess I'd better be alive
Singing for your questions
But you've stolen all of my answers
Too much entertainment drove
And that's not all the color
Tell me that you've seen a ghost
I'll tell you what to fear the most
[Chorus]
Stop!
I said it's happening again!
We're all wasting away!
We're all wasting away!
[Verse 2]
Too much information
Well I said you're good for nothing
Stitch your part of counterfeit
I'll send you out for hunting
Digging at the roads
Where you're digging for the simple codes
Swimming with the fishes
While the serpent waves his tongue
With a belly full of splinters
Now you see that I'm the one
Tell me that you've seen a ghost
I'll tell you what to fear the most
[Chorus]
Stop!
I said it's happening again!
We're all wasting away!
We're all wasting away!
Stop!
I said it's happening again!
We're all wasting away!
We're all wasting away!
Stop!
I said it's happening again!
We're all wasting away!
We're all wasting away!
