Songtexte Buried Alive - Jarvix

The toe bone
The foot bone
The heel bone
The ankle bone
The shin bone
The knee bone
The thigh bone
The hip bone
The back bone
The shoulder bone
The neck bone
Head

Ooh, marvelous, marvelous gadgetry
Circuits of majesty
Buried alive
Ooh, all of the cells that exist in me
Ever persist in me
God, what a jive

Asphyxiated by the skin it bears
It's a sad state of evolutionary affairs
When an organism buckles from too much of what it's meant to be
So cut another notch in the bible belt
It'll take a climate crisis for the pounds to melt
And the inbred bulldogs are running this century

My brain's about as urgent as a bureaucrat
Who'd rather bottleneck systems than trim the fat
And my body's not a temple - it's a government facility
The pavement and the wheel make a fortunate pair
But it doesn't really matter if you're goin' nowhere
Cause the traffic's full stop, revving engines in futility

Ooh, marvelous, marvelous gadgetry
Circuits of majesty
Buried alive
Ooh, all of the cells that exist in me
Ever persist in me
God, what a jive

Skeletal, muscular, renal, nervous
The systems in me all provide a life-giving service
It's beautiful to witness them in action to recant the kill
My body feels the pain to prevent self-harm
And when alcohol flows the liver sounds the alarm
(Though the reproductive system is a system I shan't fulfill)

The blood that pumps the oxygen for sunken boners
Is also what preserves the goods of organ donors
But otherwise my guts are just immaculate Polyfil
The purpose-driven life is just a ruse from the druids
I know I'm but a mass of bone and bodily fluids
And in the end I'll feed the worms like every other body will

Ooh, marvelous, marvelous gadgetry
Circuits of majesty
Buried alive
Ooh, all of the cells that exist in me
Ever persist in me
God, what a jive

Ooh, marvelous, marvelous gadgetry
Circuits of majesty
Barely alive
Ooh, all of the cells that exist in me
Ever persist in me
Just to survive
