Holy Shit! Songtext / Lyric

I am oh so fascinated

I am oh so entertained

Standing here like a comedian

I repeat what I say again and again and again



Until the meaning has become an imitation of itself

An impression of an original defeats the fucking purpose

I don't know where this is going

But it's looking more and more like the same place where we started



Oh good God, holy shit

The joke's on us, not on them

Just kids pretending to be astronauts

Police officers, and firemen






And everybody's watching the lead singer in the band

The guitars explode into a drumbeat that's driving

It's pretty fucking 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 drunken 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 be compromised

I believe that I will endure, and I will overcome

And I will sing it until I no longer remember the reason



What was that reason?



Oh good God, holy shit

The joke's on us, not on them

Just kids pretending to be astronauts

Police officers, and firemen
