Can't remember anything at all
Flamed trees lie in the streets
ย
Can't remember anything at all
But I'm driving my car down to Geneva
ย
I've been sitting in my basement patio
Ah, it was hot
Up above the girls walk past
Their roses all in bloom
ย
Have you ever heard about the Higgs Boson blues?
I'm goin' down to Geneva, baby
Gonna teach it to you
ย
Who cares, who cares what the future brings?
ย
Black road long, and I drove and drove
Came upon a crossroad
The night was hot and black
I see Robert Johnson with a ten dollar guitar
Strapped to his back, looking for a tune
ย
Well, here comes Lucifer with his cannon law
And a hundred black babies running from his genocidal jaw
He got the real killer groove
Robert Johnson and the devil man
Don't know who's gonna rip off who
Driving my car, flame trees on fire
Sitting and singin' the Higgs Boson blues
I'm tired, I'm looking for a spot to drop
All the clocks have stopped in Memphis now
And the Lorraine Motel is hot, it's hot
That's why they call it the Hot Spot
I take a room with a view
Hear a man preaching in a language that's completely new, yeah
Making the hot cocks in the flop house bleed
While the cleaning ladies sob into their mops and the bell ho-hops and bops
A shot rings out to a spiritual groove
Everybody bleeding to the Higgs Boson blues
And if I die tonight
Bury me in my favorite yellow patent leather shoes
And with a mummified cat and a cornrag hat
That the caliphate forced on the Jews
ย
Can you feel my heartbeat, can you feel my heartbeat?
ย
Hannah Montana does the African savannah
As the simulated raining season begins
She curses the cue with the Zulu
And moves onto Amazonia, cries with the dolphins
The Mai-Mai eat the pigmy, the pigmy eat the monkey
The monkey has a gift that he is sending back to you
Look, here comes the missionary with his smallpox and flu
ย
He's saving them savages with his Higgs Boson blues
ย
I'm driving my car down to Geneva
ย
I'm driving my car down to Geneva
ย
Oh, let the damn day break
Rainy days always make me sad
ย
Miley Cyrus floats in a swimming pool in Taluca Lake
And you're the best girl I ever had
ย
Can't remember anything at all
