Lyrics

He's been with the world
And I'm tired of the soup du jour
He's been with the world
I wanna end this prophylactic tour
Afraid nobody around here
Understands my potato
Guess I'm only a spudboy
Looking for a real tomato
We're the smart patrol
Nowhere to go
Suburban robots that monitor reality
Common stock
We work around the clock
We shove the poles in the holes

Wait a minute
Something's wrong
He's the man from the past
He's here to do us a favor
A little human sacrifice
It's just supply and demand
Mr. kamikazi mr. dna
He's an altruistic pervert
Mr. dna mr. kamikazi
He's here to spread some genes
Wait a minute
Something's wrong
He's a man with a plan
His finger is pointed at devo
Now we must sacrifice ourselves
That many others may live
Ok we've got a lot to give
This monkey wants a word with you
