State of Affairs

Sound the alarm or ring the bell
Call the police but on yourself
Social mechanics is currency
Deposit the check in the MCD
Watch as the vulture eats itself

Trade in the house for a motel
Sleep at the bank, you might as well
Former acquaintances, pick a lane
The structure and backing of currency
Watch as the culture eats itself

They dance around the fire
Flames burning higher, and higher, and higher
On command the sun burns brighter
Oh God, God, God
What a sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad
Statе of Affairs

House burning down, it's time to sell
Amazing to think wе built this hell
Summoning mechanical energy
Produced overnight by your grinding teeth
Watch as the whole world eats itself

They dance around the fire
Flames burning higher, and higher, and higher
On command the sun burns brighter
Oh God, God, God
What a sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad
State of Affairs
What a sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad
State of Affairs

They dance around the fire
Flames burning higher, and higher, and higher
All command the sun burns brighter
Oh God, God, God
What a sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad
State of Affairs
What a sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad, sad
