Vandals, The – Flowers Are Pretty

Children are lovely before they get ugly and learn to do bad stuff.

Flowers are pretty before they get shitty and rot and turn to dust

I heard that life is a wheel and you can’t make it stop

If you try it’ll flatten your head

It’s a circle of shit we’re in the middle of it

but soon we’ll all be dead

Like everybody else thats ever lived before, the things you make fall to the floor

and nobody knows how hard you’ve tried, it’s been that way since the start of time-

There was a caveman that did some amazing things

but nobody here gives a fuck

And in a thousand years they’ll feel the same

towards all the things you’ve done

So don’t worry what might give you cancer

stay up nights just wanting answers

It’s just a crap shoot, but it’s mostly crap

things start off they’re so terrific

they’ll fuck up it’s scientific

Entropy, uncertainty won’t yield to you or you

Love at first sight on a beautiful night and the feeling is so divine

gets sucked down the toilet cuz something will spoil it

with the good times left behind

Don’t try to figure out who’s at fault

powerful forces abound

like a twig on a river in the universe

tomorrow you’ll probably drown

So don’t worry if it is a tumor

all this will be over sooner

It’s just a crap shoot, but it’s mostly crap

things start off they’re so terrific

they’ll fuck up it’s scientific

Entropy, uncertainty won’t yield to you or you

And all the things that matter most – disappear

here’s a toast

to erosion and corrosion, Altzimers and pain

Don’t try to figure out who’s at fault

there’s powerful forces at play

and if you lose your legs and have to beg

it’s really all the same

So don’t worry what might give you cancer

stay up nights just wanting answers

It’s just a crap shoot, but it’s mostly crap

things start off they’re so terrific

they’ll fuck up it’s scientific

Entropy, uncertainty won’t yield to you-

Don’t worry if it is a tumor

all this will be over sooner

It’s just a crap shoot, but it’s mostly crap

things start off they’re so terrific

they’ll fuck up it’s scientific

Entropy, uncertainty won’t yield to you or you
