This is only a test
[Verse 1]
1, 2, what you gonna do?
3, 4, 5, twistin' your arm and your eye
You will buy
Step right up, donate a memory
To the bank of love, that could loan you your daydreams
[Chorus]
BUY IT!
(x2)
Black Friday's come 'n gone
[Verse 2]
Buy me a future regret
A shrink wrapped fantasy, that I'll wanna forget
In the age of the mercenary
In the nursing home where river swallows the sea
That's where we'll be, with guns
[Chorus]
Into the age of scrutiny
And the grandest frappé
Well I ain't gonna pay
Trimming the tree, I can hang, I won't swing
It's only a test
[Chorus] x3
I'll pry my seat
From the children's graves
Hear the angels sing
All the zombies walk on Black Friday
[Verse 3]
It's a riot at the salad bar
Predatory lenders
Safari mission is far but you paid for them
To kill your mom
[Chorus] x2
Kill 'em now!!
This is only a test
