FERMI Songtext
von simon a.

(As if they knew
As if-if they knew-knew, I-)

I see older tendencies
Some of the newer contentions have now gone away
They were watching over us
Wondering what the hell had made them act this way

As if they knew how much we could
Destroy ourselves with no input
Ask us, we′d say "no
If it wasn't for the Dumbo′s
We'd live in utopia
And who wouldn't wanna visit us?"

Your friends can see
Call the entire gang and let them fall in line
God forbid they disagree
One little tick can turn into a homicide


As if they knew we would be weak
And fall to our own insecurities
Ask us we′d say "no
If it wasn′t for the arseholes (no)
We'd live in utopia
And who wouldn′t wanna visit us?"

Ooh
Ooh
They weren't in mood
Ooh
(As if they knew, knew
As if-if they knew-knew, I-I
As-as if they knew, I-knew
As-as if-if they-they knew.)

Well
I can tell you what from above the sky
I never noticed any single one you guys
Why would we wanna help an ant from out the molehill?
What could you offer up that wouldn′t make someone go ill?
Oh, I'd make some changes, but I can′t bothered
See what you built, I doubled that and gave it to another
Boy this is high grade, ask your mother


Maybe we should come to your aid
Teach you some manners, you sure failed
Show you what life is with no greed
The beings before you had sowed seeds
The scrapings of history you found should alarm you
They detail a history of thieving and trauma
You think you would learn from mistakes, but you can't, so
We think that's why your previous lives left you nothing
As if they knew you would never
Want more than what you think is your treasure
As if they thought "well
We′re all ending up in big hell so
May as well burn the town to bits."
We′ll be back in a thousand years
Hopefully you fixed up
