lyrics

Science is winning

Put on my mask and dance around like Trick or Treat
It's mid-July but I identify as Halloween
My worldview is a tax that I exact
Fragmented facts
I've scattered jack-o-lanterns backwards and you sanctioned me a snack?

Naw
I want it all
The chocolate bars, the gummy worms, the shoes inside the closet in your hall
Your little dog
The matches in your kitchen drawer that fire cannonballs

Dead end job?
Dead end job
My life is one long dead end job
Mop the floors (yes, sir)
Tend the crops (yes, ma'am)
Serve the food (yes, sir)
Thank you, God (oooh!)
Made the money for the rent but I spent all the rest
And the government check can't afford the medicine
And I'm dependent on the prescription
Just give me my meds and debt!

I've been told my dissent is a danger
My friends deconstruct echo chambers
Your freedom's over; their overreach is a joke
They legislate your family, your uterus, your guns, your drugs, your speech, your vote

Then they say, "Do you wanna come inside and join the party?"
No.
"This is not your property, it's everybody's."
Also, no.
"Do you wanna come inside our private party?"

I thought I told you
NAW
I want it all
The credit cards, the gasoline, the drug cartels & pharmaceuticals
Gold from Qatar
The laser beams from space that shoot and burn your shopping malls & all your cars
I tell you bruh
The colleges, the prisons, and the weapons contracts for holy war
Because I am above the law
The life force in your fingertips that flips a catapult
I tell you I want it all

I want every molecule in your body
Give me every molecule in your body
