Lyrics - Buckaroo
When the sun's gone Then they cry, laughing as they die They can't look into your eyes Moonlight makes it all so clear Peirces the skin without tears The writing on the wall's been smeared
Tragedy, comedy Bite the hand that set 'em free Same old song with a different beat Comedy, tragedy
Forget about heaven And the book of fear Forget about heaven We're staying here
Getting so high but staying so low Stumbling, look out below Halfway's too far to go
Forget about heaven And the book of fear Forget about heaven We're staying here
Beliefs, disaster Domination by persuasion Nightmare is after Your ruined faith beckons grace
Hold their heads down When kneeling to pray Heaven lies the other way Cheated angels turned away Forget about heaven And the book of fear Forget about heaven We're staying here
Forget about heaven Originally performed by Lard
A fork is a cold shiny tool To pierce, tear and ingest Whoever has the fork in hand Controls the meal of its choice We're told the first few punctures They're for our own good Better carved up in pieces Than blown up in the oven
Forkboy Flies by night on stolen fuel To Santa Rosa, CA Opens a fake employment office Want a job? Go get me drugs People desperate for work Return to quite a surprise Busted for intent to sell Cops pay him a bounty Forkboy skips town
We came We peed We conquered You bleed
The choice: Fork Boy Or finger food
Ugly joy What does it replace? Why wait When you can eat yourself alive today
Junk bondage takeover glutton Ready to bore in Unfold his rotary blades inside Pull the guts out and resell them Buys out his next target With the last one's pension funds Thousands more thrown out of work So Leona won't have to settle for a mint
Forkboy Picked by the FBI To be the black pied piper After Dr. King died Watches soap operas on TV While 6 billion disappears from HUD Who are you working for What did you hope to gain Why do you hate your past So much you destroy the ones you love
