Laugh
- Verse
- A mime cracks wise in a fallout zone
- A ventriloquist talks to a broken phone
- The rubber chicken reads the news
- And nobody laughs, but nobody moves
- Cracked teeth grinning through the static
- Laughter as a reflex semi-automatic
- A priest slips on a banana peel
- The war goes on behind the wheel
- Chorus
- Absurdism sleeps in a sequined van
- Tragedy sings in a marching band
- Metamodern hearts beat out of tune
- Sincere as a kite in a bloody monsoon
- The joke is still running, it’s got no brakes
- We giggle and burn at the same mistake
- Verse
- Charlie Chaplin’s ghost sells pills
- On a talk show beamed from landfill hills
- Punchlines stuck in amber glass
- We laugh, we choke, we let it pass
- The clown’s on fire but keeps his cue
- Duct-taped smile in a three-piece suit
- A funeral parade with cartoon drums
- We mourn with joy until it numbs
- Chorus
- Absurdism sleeps in a sequined van
- Tragedy hums in a hologram band
- Metamodern saints spin on a dime
- Juggling hope and collapsing time
- The joke is still running, can’t find the end
- We circle the void and call it a friend
- Bridge
- We draw our gods on paper bags
- Toast the void with melted flags
- Standup sets in empty bars
- Where silence heckles from the stars
- Outro
- So pull the string and twist the key
- Wind-up souls on a killing spree
- Still giggling, limping, deadpan clean
- Through the old routine in a brand new dream
