You've got your suckers like an octopus
And they can't see behind the camouflage
Should I compare you to an octopus?
Just stacks of handouts to the entourage

We're moving forward slowly
But falling backwards faster
So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace

We're running out of punchlines
A d-d-d-disaster
So watch us crawl
We're crawling back to the cave
We're moving forward slowly

But falling backwards faster
So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace
We're running out of punchlines
A d-d-d-disaster
So watch us crawl

We're crawling back to the cave
There's a fire, there's a fire
It's coming
And it's pushing past the limit
And children

Such a thrum, such a thrum
A fire's humming
On the beach by a sea
Of sevens
There's a storm, there's a storm
It's rising

There's no time, there's no place
For idles
Such a mess, such a mess
That's throbbing

All that's born is a meaningless spiral
You've got your tentacles all over the place
Its just a bad dream, since we weren't awake
Counting up you'll leave just to scratch your face
Time to run, time to make an escape

We're moving forward slowly
But falling backwards faster
So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace
We're running out of punchlines
A d-d-d-disaster

So watch us crawl
We're crawling back to the cave
We're moving forward slowly
But falling backwards faster
So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace
We're running out of punchlines
A d-d-d-disaster

So watch us crawl
We're crawling back to the cave
We're moving forward slowly
But falling backwards faster
So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace
We're running out of punchlines
A d-d-d-disaster

So watch us crawl
We're crawling back to the cave
We're moving forward slowly
But falling backwards faster
So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace
We're running out of punchlines
A d-d-d-disaster

So watch us crawl
We're crawling back to the cave
