2153 |
| Well their brains were quite large for their bodies |
| And it lulled them into thinking they weren’t dumb |
| They did guns, extreme sports, special hobbies |
| And cool tricks with their fingers and thumbs |
| And they thought they would be guarantee delivered |
| To some guy in Roman sandals and a beard |
| So they bought and they fought and they Twittered |
| By 2153 they disappeared |
| Ah, they waited for their god in vain |
| Yeah they waited for their god in vain |
| In the last big play of the final game |
| They waited for their god in vain |
| Oh, they went for the literal translation |
| Of every text and symbol sacred work and screed |
| They obsessed over minor variations |
| Misconstrued the truth to justify their deeds |
| And they thought that all the others were afflicted |
| And those who knew the secret handshake would be saved |
| And they thought in the end they’d all be lifted |
| Now they’re lying in the beds that they made |
| Ah, they waited for their god in vain |
| Yeah, they waited for their god in vain |
| Standing with their luggage waiting for the transport plane |
| They waited for their god in vain |
| Ah, they waited for their god in vain |
| Yeah, they waited for their god in vain |
| When they called out for their god each one used a different name |
| They waited for their god in vain |
| This is all we can conclude from what’s left of their remains |
| They waited for their god in vain |
