It's All Got A Little Weird

from There's A Bar At the End of the World by Jess Silk

/

lyrics

I’ve been staring at my phone for six weeks
There are people at home pulling out their teeth
The president suggests injecting bleach
It’s all got a little weird

Assault rifles go storming city hall
Demanding returned freedom for us all
But who exactly took it they’re not sure
It’s all got a little peculiar

Please can somebody explain
Why the whole goddamn world has gone insane

The expert’s voice can’t quite break through the din
This is not a competition we can win
The queen of England’s singing Vera Lynn
It’s all got a little odd

It seems like half the planet is aflame
A virus spreads that cannot be contained
The AI really wants to know my name
It’s all got a little Orwellian

Please can somebody explain
Why the whole goddamn world has gone insane

The figures crawl across the TV screen
Yet no one really knows what they mean
Don’t talk to strangers, keep your hands clean
It’s all got a little strange

The numbers on the count keep ticking up
Yet there are people who still do not give a
They say, I’m alright, I’ll keep chancing my luck
I’d like to say that it is worse than I expected
But it’s really not

Please can somebody explain
Why the whole goddamn world has gone insane
I think that something’s gone wrong with our brains
‘Cause the whole goddamn world has gone insane
