Emergency Lyrics

[Intro/Vocalizing]



[Verse 1]

Under a Los Angeles heat lamp

Turn the earth into a convenience store

Treadmills full of cars and parking lots

The freeways never stop



[Vocalizing]

Noo-no-no-lay-whoa-no-lay-whoa

Aah-whoa-no-lay-whoa-no-lay-whoa



[Verse 2]

Don't you know it was an emergency?

They burnt food to keep the scarcity

Put a bullet in his head, in his head for me

'Cause that's how freedom looks to me



[Verse 3]

I know, I know

The sun will never set

I got a lot of light-bulbs

I know, I know

There on the walls

It drags us to the floor and out the door



[Bridge]

As soon as you cancel your plans

To not get enough

You'll know that life shrinks and expands

Relative to love

And it's not an invisible hand

If it's covered in blood

And counting in dollars demands

The damages done

That ripple across distant lands

From satellite unseen commands

And they covered their heads with their hands

Afraid of the sun



[Outro]

Channels of inscribed ink

Incised by the city of teeth

Sinking down underneath

Sinking down
