My mutant hero got lost in the stars
left me surrounded by aliens from Mars
with science fiction faces and salesman smiles.
I been lost drivin’ down highway 1 for awhile.
Step by step, crawl by crawl,
dead men walk, young men fall.
Dreams are sold, souls bottled and scanned.
Scream by scream, crime by crime,
I swear this movies gotta end sometime.
Crossin’ my heart with a cold dead hand, hopin’ to die in Zombieland.
Cellular families and internet friends,
speaking in tongues but nothing is said.
Moving in circles of loyalty and scorn,
undead since the day they were born.
With Jack O Pop Piper they dance on the moon,
countin’ up gold like Mr. Scrooge.
When crackin’ skulls and breakin’ knees there’s no time to pray.
so c’mon get unhappy on judgement day.
