90's world leaders in portrait pictures
And a bed frame with barbed wire curled round broken computers, their motherboards useless
They're just another colour on the pile
And I don't miss it, my city's gone missing
I hated it all anyway
So bring on the burning, a dove stuck on red string
We'll call it the end of days
And soon I'll die like the rest of them
Tell me a story, torn up teddy
Before the oil fire tide sends you as smog to the sky
Yea tell me a story, torn up teddy
Before the oil fire tide sends you as smog to the sky
I swear that power plant was by Gloucester Boulevard
Where uncle Roy used to work
His tongue was always yellow from uranium he'd swallowed and
I'm pretty sure it glowed in the dark
I don't miss it, my city's gone missing
I never liked people that much
The rubble of a century spewed out in front of me
I'm wading through, I hear my boots crunch
Now I'm gonna die like the rest of them
Tell me a story, torn up teddy
Before the oil fire tide sends you as smog to the sky
Yea tell me a story, torn up teddy
Before the oil fire tide sends you as smog to the sky
When I was a kid, I thought it would be so cool to tread through a post-apocalypse
When I was a kid, I thought it would be so cool to tread through a post-apocalypse
All my friends are dead! I thought it would be so cool to tread through a post-apocalypse
So, teddy, please
Tell me a story
Before the oil fire tide sends you as smog to the sky
Yea tell me a story, torn up teddy
Before the oil fire tide sends you as smog to the sky
