What Happened, Mama?

What happened, mama?

When school became a robot breeding ground

When desperate cries ceased to make any sound

When she can make millions without singing a note in tune

When he abandoned us and the Earth was eclipsed by the moon

What happened, mama?

What went wrong?

Now there's just no point

To this song.

There's no point to this song

What'd You Expect?

Well… what'd you expect from me?

Some sort of sympathy?

Now you can plainly see

You don't mean a thing to me

(Let the bloody tears flow from your soul / Let them flow, let sins sow)

Well you think you're so hip and cool

You think you've got it made

But you're just the carpenter's tool

And what you've got will fade
