"Are We Ready? (Wreck)" lyrics

You're the sacred cow
Stand up, take a bow,
You're wonderful
You should be comfortable,
Don't think at all
Just don't think at all, think at all

Now, now you're digging a wreck
What will you write about?
How did you find that out?
You get paid and don't need any respect
Senses fading, she's no lady

Oh, we've made a mistake
We've lost our minds
We've lost our memory
Oh, what's it gonna take?
There's always something else
Waiting on the shelf

You could be president
You never paid the rent but I don't mind
You got no reason to learn what came first
It can't be good enough, good enough

Now, now you're throwing the stone
You never sympathize
Somebody shut your eyes
What will you say with that mind of your own?
Are we ready? Hold it steady

Oh, we've made a mistake
We've lost our minds
We've lost our memory
Oh, what's it gonna take?
There's always something else
So occupy yourself

I saw the world today
It comes in green and gray
Refrigerator hum
And chewing gum and instant karma
The war's a whore
And all the stores are bored
With all your money
We follow what's to come
That's what they sold to me

Now, now you're throwing the stone
You never sympathize
Somebody shut your eyes
What will you say with that mind of your own?
Are we ready?
Hold it steady

Now, now you're throwing the stone
Oh, we've made a mistake
We've lost our minds
You never sympathize
We've lost our memory
Somebody shut your eyes

What will you say?
Oh, what's it gonna take?
With that mind of your own)
There's always something else
Are we ready?
Waiting on the shelf
Hold it steady
