lyrics

I ran into a monster
He told me who was fat
Then he told me to buy these stocks
while the market is flat
and the moon is in a crescent
just above the barnyard gate
and you chase around the chickens
until you lose some of that weight

He said, "have you seen this lady on Twitter?
I found out where she lives. She won't know what hit her."

We called up the paper, tried to buy an ad,
and got to laughing about that old cartoonist they had
before they hauled away the presses and rented out the space
and the buffer for ideas disappeared without a trace

You're fairly sure you've got the most wit
You flirt with the truth, but then you ghost it
Just find a picture that's a close fit – close enough
Slap some words on top and post it

I'm just going down the road
and there's so many trolls

What happened between me and you?
If you get that shot you know you might not get the flu
Before this whole thing explodes
Someone tell me who released the trolls

What happened between me and you?
When I saw you last, we could still talk for a while
Riding in that van, mile after mile

I got home and turned on the debate
The guy in the coat just wants the bear to hibernate
The bear says the habitat has fairly gone to hell
I thought he might swipe the flag right off the other guy's lapel
Then the moon rose in a crescent just above the poisoned well
Are we all such bloody experts at blaming some else for our fate?

I made out with the truth but then I ghosted
Will you brew the mash I roasted?

I'm just going down the road
and there's so many trolls
Before this whole thing explodes
Tell me who released the trolls
