Some say the end is near
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will
I sure could use a vacation from this
Bullsh** three ring circus sideshow of freaks
Here in this hopeless f**ing hole we call L.A
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
Any f**ing time. Any f**ing day
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona Bay
Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your Prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car
It's a bullsh** three ring circus sideshow of freaks
Here in this hopeless f**ing hole we call L.A
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
Any f**ing time. Any f**ing day
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona Bay
Some say a comet will fall from the sky
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves
Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dip sh**s
Some say the end is near
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will cause
I sure could use a vacation from this
Stupid sh**, silly sh**, stupid sh**...
One great big festering neon distraction
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied
Learn to swim. [3x]
Mom's gonna fix it all soon
Mom's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be
Learn to swim
f** L Ron Hubbard and
f** all his clones
f** all these gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes
Learn to swim
f** retro anything
f** your tattoos
f** all you junkies and
f** your short memory
Learn to swim
f** smiley glad-hands
With hidden agendas
f** these dysfunctional
Insecure actresses
Learn to swim
Cause I'm praying for rain
And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way
I wanna watch it all go down
Mom, please flush it all away
I wanna see it go right in and down
I wanna watch it go right in
Watch you flush it all away
Time to bring it down again
Don't just call me pessimist
Try and read between the lines
I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend
I wanna see it all come down
Bring it down
s** it down
Flush it down
