The Current Thing

This is a story
Of a guy named Alex
Lived in a cardboard box, but he thought that he lived in a palace
This is a story, of a messed up human race
There's not much to live for, but that dumb look on your face (Durr)
People take the time to understand it
You're gonna take that Twinkie and jam it
Down your throat as fast as you possibly can
Getting my worldview from a suit on the TV makes me a real man
So what's the meal plan?
Propaganda and BS for breakfast, lunch and dinner
I'm the lucky winner, real fed
In the big pen, with the other chickens
Birds of a feather we're suitable for feastin'

Do the current thing, man
Do the current thing, man
Do the current thing, man
We're all gonna do the current thing, man (We'll do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
We're all gonna do the current thing, man

Wow
So much for thinking for yourself
I guess your principles went out the window
The second as they offered you the Krispy Kreme donut?
Ah, ha ha ha
It wasn't the Krispy Kreme donut
It was the free burger and fries
Wow, you got me there, man

Where's your ribbon?
I don't wanna wear the ribbon
Why are you on a mission to get me to wear the frickin' ribbon?
I'm not gonna wear it, don't even dare
I don't care about your raw mission you can just disappear
Just like my peers in my rear view mirror
Yeah I'm gettin' out of here
First class flight to basically anywhere, I don't even care
As long its no where your stupid fuckin' ass
Have I made it clear?

Do the current thing, man
Do the current thing, man
Do the current thing, man
We're all gonna do the current thing, man (We'll do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
We're all gonna do the current thing, man

Wrong in the spot and the stars of the thought
Planting seeds in your mind all day
Just getting some water and a little bit of sun
To find and climb high as a search for the light of day
The farmers looking for the tree for the crop
And it seems like you're not gonna make the cut anyway
So turn the TV back on
Bringing news so you can see, all confused
But we're all doomed anyway

Do the current thing, man
Do the current thing, man
Do the current thing, man
We're all gonna do the current thing, man (We'll do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
We're all gonna do the current thing, man (One more time!)

Do the current thing, man
Do the current thing, man
Do the current thing, man
We're all gonna do the current thing, man (We'll do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
Do the current thing, man (Then do the thing again)
We're all gonna do the current thing, man
