lyrics

there's a whole lotta sweaters in this world
many of them have holes
many of them are
brand
spanking
new
the only thing that i know that is true
is that there's a whole lot of sweaters in this world
i've seen sweaters doing things i couldn't even imagine doing,
i couldn't even, like, imagine ANYBODY doing:
BUT A SWEATER DID IT.
.. it's always the sweater..
.. doing it.
fast
have you ever noted how FAST sweaters are?
i guess that's why they sweat,
'cause they're moving so fast
all the colors of the rainbow
and everything in between
they're so goddamn arrogant
they're like; "We've got all this color! I'm like a sweater of every color and every shape, with freshness and boldness
and lies and regrets and innocence and promises."
Sweaters are so arrogant.
The arrogance of sweaters
A donut (?) problem..
it- it- actually-
the reason why america is
so
fucked
up!

It's the sweaters!!

.. I try telling people this
they don't know, they're like; "oh yeah, it's THEM"
They're like "oh, you're part of the 'sweater conspiracy'?"
"Conspiracy of Sweaters", they like to say.
And I'm like "it's no conspiracy, it's true.
You know, why don't you just stop and look at all the sweaters,
and see what they're doing, what they're up to?
They're up to no good! I know I'm right goddammit!"

Ugh; what's a gal to do?
other than feel good about being right?
and being the only one that knows
the source of all this pain
and this senseless
violence
is the sweaters!

i suppose i feel a bit (smug?)
but I'm sharing this truth
with you; the youth of America
because they're the ones that are going to make a difference
and if they understand
that the sweaters are the...
war!
it's an understatement to say that
the sweaters are the problem in America today
but they don't understand; they laugh,
and think that America is just like it used to be.
they're like "oh no; it's this or that!", or all the old reasons
why we're FUCKED.

Have you ever noticed that the people who have the most sweaters
do the most things?

SWEATER WETTER WEATHER SWEATER WEATHER!

(CB chatter: "yeah we got a sweater l...")

I hear sweaters aren't allowed on Mars,
which really excludes a lot of people from the migration
to Mars.
.. that's, uh.. all those sweater-lovers
are gonna be left behind.
The news has yet to be broken,
but mark my words
that i have uttered.
