Supermarket flashbacks
Show arms and legs in plastic sacks
Fat men twelve bananas high
Die while all the woman cry
Love, love gets sucked away
On big fat lips while people pray
Boy plus girl make mess out of sex
No babies come, what happens next?
De-evolution
Self execution
No solution
I'm a potato and I'm so hip
Teenage hoodlums stand in line
Donate blood to pay for crime
Butchers steal doctor's tools
Sow pretty heads on dogs and mules
Hi-fi systems, men in pairs
Tape bodies falling down the stairs
Father-son teams split the cost
Of nighttime girls but all is lost
To de-evolution
Self execution
No solution
I'm a spudman, I got eyes all around
Martian feet—
Martian feet turn dirt and stone
For buried treasure, human bone
Madison men, tattoo ads
On ten year olds with sucker pads
Rockets rust, attack, decay
Things fall apart while spacemen play
Now daddy zero drops his brown
Go down, go down, go down
To de-evolution
Self execution
No solution
I'm a spudgun, I'd like to shoot 'em all
