Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Martin calls to say he's sending old electrical equipment
That's good, we could always use more electrical equipment
ย
In the cold, clear light of day down here
Everyone's a monster
That's cool with all of us
We've been past the point of help since early April
ย
Susan and her notebooks
Freehand drawings of Lon Cheney
Blueprints for geodesic domes
Recipes for cake
Yeah we're all here
Chewing our tongues off
Waiting for the fever to break
ย
When we walk out in the sunlight we tell everyone we know it hurts our eyes
When the real reason we don't like it is that it makes us wonder if we're dying
ย
And Martin's found an old trunk of stage makeup in the basement
He'll be sending it along
We could always use more makeup
Yeah, more creams and powders
And Carrie's got the feeling
That the people next door
Will close in like a wolfpack
Should we make one small mistake
Yeah we're all here
Chewing our tongues off
Waiting for the fever to break
