Handsome Devil - Elephant Bones lyrics

rate me

Lord, let's send down some angels

And they better have guns

Cause everybody's crazy down here

On everybody's drugs

Casinos, pornos, talk shows

Where white trash goes to die

Bums push carts

Crackhead squirrels, and birds too drunk to fly

Keep dancing, it's the end of the world

She said 'Oh baby do the end of the world'

C'mon baby it's the end of the world

She says 'Smile! Do the end of the world! '

Keep dancing to the end of the world

She said 'Oh baby it's the end of the world'

C'mon baby it's the end of the world

She says 'Smile! It's the end of the world! '

And they send down some astronauts

To study our bones

Through the miles of garbage

Beneath all the junk that we owned

Carbon dating beer cans, condoms, and twinky wrappers

We was something beautiful, baby

What the hell happened

Keep dancing, it's the end of the world

She said 'Oh baby do the end of the world'

C'mon baby it's the end of the world

She says 'Smile! Do the end of the world! '

Don't need no headstone to be dead in a hole, I say, they gonna go dig you up like some elephant bones.

If you were worth it they'd skin you too

For new tennis shoes

Or a couch that fits the motif of the living room

And doesn't clash with your business suits

I wanna be in a museum,

Stuffed and in a realistic position like I'm huntin

Callin someone or buyin somethin

Way too busy to look up and see what was comin

Keep dancing, it's the end of the world

She said 'Oh baby do the end of the world'

C'mon baby it's the end of the world

She says 'Smile! Do the end of the world! '

I want my bones kept next to somebody of cultural significance

Like Fonzi or William Shatner

Yeah, somebody famous like Gilbert Godfrey or the dog from Frasier

That caveman they found?

He was a punk, I knew him in High School
