Us

They made a statue of us

Then put it on a mountain top

The tourists come and stare at us

Blow bubbles with their gum

Take photographs have fun, have fun


They'll name a city after us

And later say it's all our fault

Then they'll give us a talking to

Then they'll give us a talking to

Cause they've got years of experience


We're liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiving in a den of theives

Rumaging for answers in the pages

We're liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiving in a den of theives

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious



We wear our scarves just like a noose

But not cause we want eternal sleep

And though our parts are slighty used

New ones are slave labor you can keep



We're liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiving in a den of theives

Rumaging for answers in the pages

We're liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiving in a den of theives

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious


They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us


The tourists come and stare at us

The sculptors mama sends regards

They made a statue of us

They made a statue of us

Our noses have begun to rust



We're liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiving in a den of theives

Rumaging for answers in the pages

We're liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiving in a den of theives

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious

And its contagious
