lyrics

Morning you wake up for a job you hate, but you keep drinking bourbon from a half empty cup.
Money. Money. More money, making more monotony. Workplace comatose, frontal lobotomy.
You get inside your car, like an insect in a jar. You jump onto the freeway, but you don't get very far.
Then you wind down the window, whinge about the radio.
Cars like coffins like cattle to the rodeo.
Here's a stick, Here's a leaf.
Here's a stick, Here's a leaf.
Poke some holes in the lid, so I can breathe, I can breathe...
I'm an Insect/Baby
Baby, I'm an insect-baby.
"I'm an Insect, baby"
Staring at a smart phone, drooling like a dumb drone. Same old, getting old, doing everything I'm told.
Hi, yes, Bye, no. I don't know, I don't grow. Brain made of bread dough. Me another John Doe.
Yeah, I'm trying to think but I'm unable to sync, as the link is a wreck and I'm up to my neck, they gotta keep me in check because the baby insect ain't allowed to defect
Where's your heart on your sleeve? Where's your heart on your sleeve? Where's your heart on your sleeve? Where's your heart on your sleeve?
I'm an Insect/Baby.
"I'm an Insect, baby"
Baby, I'm an insect-baby.
I. Am. Going. To. Smash. My. Skull. Against. The. Glass. To. See. Which. One. Breaks. First.
If. The. Glass. Breaks. First. Then. One. Will. Know. That. One. Can. Be. Free.
If. I. Then. It. Is. Proved. This. Is. What. I. Am. To. Be.
I'm an Insect/Baby.
"I'm an Insect, baby"
Baby, I'm an insect-baby.
