Nekrogoblikon - We Need A Gimmick lyrics
rate meWhat do we need? What do we need?
I wish someone would tell us what we need!
We need a gimmick pretty lil gimmick
A fool-proof plan to gain the trust
Of the human race after all
We come from outer space
(& we smell like shit!)
No more shame; it’s time for fame
Nothing to lose, everything to gain
We’ve seen it, heard it, felt it, thought it, sought it
Lived it all before
We’ve read it, watched it, bought it, stole it, sold it
Now we just want mo', listen up!
We won’t be let down anymore
Now they’ve got a killer plan
And it just might be crazy enough to work
When it all began
They were desperate, they were prideful
They were reckless, pitiful scum (& neva mindful)
Neva thought enough to realize that
Everything is just a joke
We’re at it again
Just us & the friends
We know what this is
No need to lie
We push that boulder up the hill
We need a gimmick squishy lil gimmick
The perfect way to win the heart
Of the human race
After all…
They live in the comfort zone
(& they’re a bunch of dicks!)
Watch them watch themselves on hi-def plasma television screens
We made a human costume for a goblin
Best to hide the green
Now they’ve got a killer plan
& it just might be crazy enough to work
When it all began
They were desperate, they were prideful
They were reckless, pitiful scum (& neva mindful)
Never thought enough to realize that
Everything is just a joke
But that was then
Now they’ve got a clever plan
& it ain’t half-bad
it’s got to work;
it’s just what they need
They are temperate, they are mindful
They are zealous, wonderful chums (took off the blindfold)
Never thought enough to realize that
Everything is still a joke
We’re at it again
Just us & the friends
We know what this is
No need to lie
We push that boulder up the hill
but then it rolls back down again
Ova & ova
The coldest of shoulders
They're missing the point
Misguided drones
They keep checking their phones
As if it really fucking matters
We skinned a dog to make its hair
We peeled a preschool & stole their skin
Wow, ain’t he looking debonair
Just smash the face, he’ll blend right in
Now he’s getting on the ship
We built a rocket, to send him to earth
No need to freak, it’s just a trip
I think it’s about time u got a grip
We’re at it again, just us & the friends
We know what this is, no & to lie
We push that boulder up the hill
But then it rolls back down again
Ova & ova the coldest of shoulders
They're missing the point, misguided drones
They keep checking their phones
As if it really fucking matters
What do we got? What do we got?
A gimmick!!!
