Lyrics & Translation

[English]

that is an animal testing lab within 200

000 helpless guinea pigs all being poked

and prodded by sadistic scientists

guinea pigs snake I want you to rescue

them but this is a place for good so I

draw something more friendly for you to

wear

well there goes our street cred

at least it's comfy

[Music]

all right we need to distract that

scientist shark you're up copy that okay

we're gonna need a rope and a hook I got

this one what you're volunteering you've

never volunteered for anything sure I

did right now uh throw me up there giddy

up really yup I'm 99 sure you can make

it okay let's do it

hey there son Dad I know you've got an

important job but I hope you still have

time for a catch with your old man

you'll always be my special boy

I've been waiting my entire life for

this moment

oh boy oh boy oh boy thank you Daddy

right the guinea pigs are locked behind

a three foot thick steel door the only

way in is through the vents I got it

I've never seen him that's even

meditating

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

arrived just keep your eyes into that

door

relax these doors are complicated

not eat them well I'd say they've gone

to a better place

baby you stupid hair balls not that door

[Music]

[Applause]
