I am oh so fascinated,
I am oh so entertained,
Standing here like [bad word] 
I repeat what I say, again and again and again
until the meaning has [bad word] an imitation of itself,
An impression of an original defeats the [bad word] purpose.
I don't know where this is going,
but it's looking more and more like the same place that we started.

Oh good God, holy [bad word]  the joke's on us, not on them.
Kids pretending to be astronauts, police officers, and firemen.

Oh good God, holy [bad word]  the joke's on us, not on them.
Kids pretending to be astronauts, police officers, and firemen.

And everybody's watching the lead singer in the band.
The guitars exploding to a [bad word] that's driving.
It's pretty [bad word] boring, oh don't you think?
And of all the things we'd ask,
of all the ways we'd like for it to be,
they're just [bad word] conversations,
song lyrics sung at the top of our lungs so desperately.
Like I believe in a power that is of and by the people?
I believe in an art that cannot [bad word] 
I believe all will endure, and all will [bad word] 
And I will sing it until I no longer remember the reason.
What was the reason?

Oh good God, holy [bad word]  joke's on us, not on them.
Kids pretending to be astronauts, police officers, and firemen.

Oh good God, holy [bad word]  joke's on us, not on them.
Kids pretending to be astronauts, police officers, and firemen.
