Lyrics

The simplest story, and
 If you stay home and watch this on television, uh, you'll see
 It'll be told again and again and again, nobody, every, ever-
 Nobody ever gets tired of this story, I call it "Man in a Hole"
 But it needn't be about a man in a hole
 Somebody gets into trouble, gets out of it again
 Ah, ha ha
 ♪
 World getting warmer, we going the other way
 World getting warmer, we going the other way
 World getting warmer, we going the other way
 Colors fade and bleed, a carousel of grey
 New Year's Day in Maine, weep for a working vein
 Wondering the nerve it take to lay under lurching waves
 Leaping in praise, spittle sprays
 The preacher overstays the pulpit
 We shoulda stayed in caves, wailing at the sepulchers
 The hunted draws vultures, a sea of mea culpas
 Hollowed out the culture, crawled inside
 Skinwalker, they cast me out the tribe
 Inkatha Freedom Party, I caught a vibe
 Amidst the revelry
 Black Orpheus caught Death's eye
 They killed it just to see it die
 Don't believe they lies
 Ivan Ilyich nagging pain in my side
 Laugh in Yiddish
 Think in Kitchen English
 Grimace, hunchbacked at the chemist
 Gregor Samsa in the bed
 Family's wishing this ugly business was finished
 But you laughing instead, you got plenty of meds
 You ordering movies with ya spiny legs splayed
 Antennae spread, blind eyes twisting out ya head
 And the smell of rotted apples
 World getting warmer, we going the other way
 World getting warmer, we going the other way
 World getting warmer, we going the other way
 World getting warmer, we going the other way
