lyrics

There's a hole in the center of the great white world
and we're only gonna dig it down
With our army of spies and our diamond eyes
Set a mile and a half underground
And our pockets fill up and our pockets fall out
And the sun and the water will rise no doubt
And the wind and rain and the hurricanes
Will scatter our cats and dogs about I know
It's what we're asking for

I grew up in the land of the lemonade stand
but it never got as sticky as this
And I still am drinking it every day
But I swear it tastes a lot like piss
Cause I get it from a man in another state
Who buys it by the ton at a better rate
And ships it out here right to my plate
But they just don't make it like they used to make it no
Oooh nice and slow

There's a hole in the center of the deep blue sea
And we're never gonna fill it up
There's a girl back home who cares for me
But these days that's never enough
So I'll work real hard and make mistakes
And learn just a little bit of give and take
And I need her so much my body aches
But we just don't make it like we used to make it no
Oooh nice and slow
