  p.m......./ 
 
Does it matter in the scheme of things  
Whether there are people in the tanks or people growing new wings  
We're gonna lick stuff in all the right places  
Throwing socks in all the right faces  
I say hello you say goodbye  
I put out my hand you spit in my eye  
YOU SPIT IN MY EYE!  
 
The trap is set  
For anyone who's ever thought  
The ferns are below, that everybody's thought  
The fried chips that can't be bought  
Not much left to live for  
Not much left to be  
Nothing really matters  
Really matters to me!  
 
This is how they stink  
This is what they feel  
This is their idea of people keeping it real  
And they're meant to be walking but they're so fucking slack  
Taking one step forward and two steps back  
Taking smack on their back with a crack on the track  
And everybody's crapping today  
I dunno know what i've been told  
What do you say  
I wanna go home ...
