lyrics

Paupers can't be preachers when they speak from their knees
beggers can't be choosers when they want what they need
pyres they ain't alters when they burn from beneath
and sharks are politicians, when they polish their teeth

And it's real fucked up
it's one messed up scene
because we're already dead
and it's all been said, it's all been

And I'll keep dancin
On your deaf god's soapbox
And I'll keep dancin
We're alright, we're ok
And I'll keep dancin
On your dead god's soapbox
I'll keep dancin
We're alright, We're ok
And I'll keep starin with that
Dead eyed confidence
I'll keep starin
We're alright, well ok

Normal isn't usual, no it's strange and weird
and everyday is last year when your livin in fear
yesterday is last year, when your livin in fear
and when my love becomes disease I say
Thank you dear

And it's real fucked up
it's one messed up scene
because we're already dead
and it's all been said, it's all been

And I'll keep dancin
On your deaf god's soapbox
And I'll keep dancin
We're alright, we're ok
And I'll keep starin
With that dead eyed confdence
I'll keep starin
We're alright, We're ok
And I'll keep laughin,
at your pink sock
I'll keep laughin
We're alright, well ok

Invert the negative, to expose the positive
We're alright, Well Ok
