Mama someone spoke to me
From across a crowded street
Cold as bricks, cold as meat
Mama see those loaded boys
All come undone
New lives for pretty bombs
Come on load these boys
Into their wooden ships
Blue dreams, blue lips
Let's go to a whip crack city
Where we come from
Think I'll pull the pin on this pretty bomb
‘Cause when you're dead it's safe to sleep
When you're dead it's safe to sleep
When you're dead it's safe to sleep
That's the one good thing about it
Mama no one talks to me
They're all so full of grief
Dumb sons, dumb needs
Let's dive down real deep
Where we belong
Screw the world
With our pretty bombs
‘Cause when you're dead it's safe to sleep
When you're dead it's safe to sleep
When you're dead it's safe to sleep
That's the one good thing about it
This weight's all over me
This weight's on you
We're under pressure now
We're unglued
We used to stick together
Right or wrong
We used to be so shattered
I miss them pretty bombs
[2x:]
‘Cause when you're dead it's safe to sleep
When you're dead it's safe to sleep
When you're dead it's safe to sleep
That's the one good thing about it
