They surrendered their guns in a forward motion
Nobody would be saved
Against the wall and tumbling into the ocean
They flew into a watery grave
Drunker than any human should be
Their vision blurred as they saw the Great Concavity
And in a boat on the sea
They would be nothing more than pigs to you and me
The lights got dimmer and the weights grew heavy
They fell into a cycle of mediocrity
Without a way to reach into the levee
We couldn't make the incision necessary
Drunker than any fucker should be
They laid down their arms and raised their white flags in the sea
And without any beauty to see
They resigned themselves to being pigs to you and me
The highway surrounds us with problems
None of which we can solve on our own
The highway surrounds us with problems
None of which are our faults
