Introduced as a new Guns N' Roses song by lead singer Axl Rose, “Absurd” is a reworked version of “Silkworms” from the Chinese Democracy sessions. It is the first new song performed by the band since the return of original members Slash and Duff McKagan.
The song was released as a single on August...
[Refrain]
Listen, motherfuckers, to the song that should be heard
Back down in the gutter's more than you deserve
Screaming fucking banshee, you know that's what you are
Pussy full of maggots, isn't that absurd?
[Verse]
Dizzy little dreamer with your head down in the stars
Fucking little schemer lost yourself inside the art
Syphilitic priestess baby, I know who you are
Parasitic demon sucking acid through your heart
[Chorus]
Absurd
Absurd
Absurd
[Refrain]
Listen, motherfuckers, to the song that should be heard
Back down in the gutter's more than you deserve
Screaming fucking banshee, you know that’s what you are
Pussy full of maggots, isn’t that absurd?
[Chorus]
Absurd
Absurd
Absurd
[Bridge]
Just another life slips away
[Refrain]
Listen, motherfuckers, to the song that should be heard
Back down in the gutter is more than you deserve
Screaming fucking banshee you know that’s what you are
Pussy full of maggots, isn’t that absurd?
[Chorus]
Absurd
Absurd
Absurd
