Mysteries of the Unexplained Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I heard a song
I heard the saddest song on WSUK
They play it every other hour of every other day
'Cause the greaser sent them t's and toys for regular airplay

[Pre-Chorus]
All your heroes are whores
All your heroes
'Cause it's a Tinkertoy world
Wouldn't buy a chance to leave it

[Chorus]
'Cause sometimes
It rains fish from the sky and the statues all start to cry
And someone writes another beautiful song
And anyway I predict the next meteor to hit will be a monster
Will be a monster
And I for one am looking forward to it

[Verse 2]
I saw a movie
I saw the saddest film
Where everyone got killed
And the crowd went wild
I didn't understand the end I couldn't spot the good guy

[Pre-Chorus]
All your heroes are whores
All your heroes
'Cause it's a Tinkertoy world
Wouldn't buy a chance to leave it
'Cause it's a Tinkertoy world
Wouldn't buy a chance to go

[Chorus]
'Cause sometimes
It rains fish from the sky and the statues all start to cry
And someone writes another beautiful song
And anyway I predict the next meteor to hit will be a monster
Will be a monster
And I for one am looking forward to it

[Outro]
I had a dream a shining bright city perfect and clean
I made a wish for a sky full of fish
