lyrics

People hear a voice like their own and they think it's the truth.
Tell a ridiculous tale, they won't know it's a spoof.
Dude heard about Pizzagate and put a bullet in somebody's parmesan.
That's when they figured out they could perpetrate an even bigger con.

Watch 'em light pussy candles and eat horse goop
And you laugh till you're out of breath.
My concern as regards this bullpoop is that we're
Entertaining ourselves to death.

You think it's "funny ha ha," I think it's funny "weird,"
I think it's wrong, the joke's gone on too long like ZZ Top beard.

We are the entertainment and are watching ourselves 24/7,
No rest,
And we'll die laughing in a Barcalounger
Just like in Infinite Jest.

It's no laughing matter.
Not so "funny ha ha."
