"Confusion In The Marketplace" lyrics

"Confusion In The Marketplace"

Princess came to breakfast looking puffy from the Prednisone
Someones little sister had me marching to the metronome
The Maharaji is on the mountain with a megaphone
Reaching for the secrets in the static on the stereo

There's something funny about the place that all the money goes
Coughing up the offering. And in between his toes
Knew a couple kids from when I still went to shows
All the little hornets forming swarms around the honeycomb

Searching for a purpose or just something we can celebrate
People take advantage of confusion in the marketplace
Hard to have much faith when they can't keep their story straight

Came back from the mission and her hair was in her mouth again
It's just another part of her don't wanna take the medicine
She won't miss the city but she'll miss all her friends
I said vice versa for me, man. Vice versa for me

Searching for a purpose or just something we can celebrate
People take advantage of confusion in the marketplace
I'll distract the manager and you obscure the license plates

Princess on the payphone with an angle on some Western states
We can take advantage of confusion in the marketplace
I don't want to dick around. I just want to devastate

Scoping out some dynamite and seeing if it detonates
People take advantage of confusion in the marketplace
You can turn the circles yeah and I can pull the parking brake

Princess on the payphone with an angle on some Western states
We can take advantage of confusion in the marketplace
I don't want to dick around. I just want to devastate
