Lyrics

We charge into danger
No guarantees or safe places
No one can be trusted
Everyone is a suspect
And all the money's worthless
The town is trite and exaggerated
The food is turning and the water is poisoned
And it's rotting your teeth right out of your head
Sight and hearing have quickly faded
Your gut's expanding, your hairline's receding
The sores are opening and the cancer's spreading
And the antibiotics aren't working
All the drugs just all the drugs are strangely sobering
And the skeletons in your closet have opened the door and then started talking

Just like miami!
Miami!
Fucking miami
Miami!

Sharks circling for the feeding
All hope has been abandoned, like ballots drifting into the ocean

Just like miami!
Miami!
Fucking miami!
Miami!

Sharks circling for the feeding
All hope has been abandoned, like ballots drifting into the ocean

Hey!

They're in your room while you're sleeping
They're in your car behind the seat waiting
All the rifle sights are on the back of your head
They're slipping it into your drink when you're not looking
And they're selling it to you as art
It's every other word in movies and songs
All the public is buying
It's business as usual
And the business is capitalizing
On your fear, your greed, your perversions and vices
They say you're guilty, they've got the evidence to prove it
The mistakes are obvious, the faults are glaring
The plane is on fire, the fucking ship is sinking
And you're swept away in a hurricane
You're buried in the rubble of an earthquake
It's terminal
Inoperable
They're amputating!
Massive hemmorrhaging
Major fucking complications!

Just like miami!
Miami!
Fucking miami!
Miami!

Sharks circling for the feeding
All hope has been abandoned, like ballots drifting into the ocean

Just like miami!
Miami!
Fucking miami!
Miami!

Sharks circling for the feeding
All hope has been abandoned, like ballots drifting into the ocean

Miami!
