You & the Cockroach

Lyrics

Okay picture this:
 There's this cold floating rock, right
 And at the bottom of this rock there's this ocean
 And at the bottom of the ocean there's these
 Little teeny amoeba, right
 And after millions of years these amoeba
 They start turning into fish and swimming around
 I don't know how it works, but it does
 So these amoebas, right, these amoeba fish
 Are swimming around until one day
 One of these fish is like "you know what
 I fucking hate the ocean, it sucks, its cold, its wet
 I'm done! I'm done"
 So he grabs these fucking little things that are called hands and feet
 And he connects them to his body
 And he crawls out of this ocean, right
 And when he gets onto the bay, guess what he sees?
 He looks around and he sees
 A female fish, and she's beautiful., oh my god, stunning
 So they talk, they talk for a few days
 And then they start, you know after a few days they start
 Mashing parts, 'cause that's what happens, right? (Mashing parts!)
 So they mash parts and all these babies get born
 And after millions of years these
 Babies shed their scales, shed their fins
 Until they start standing upright, and one day
 They fuck and their brains get so big
 That they understand these really scary concepts
 And one of these concepts is that they're going to... die!
 And what's scarier than knowing you're going to die?
 Nothing, to me
 So one day this guy's like:
 "You know what, I'm gonna create something
 That makes me not afraid of dying", Right?
 So he comes up with it, and its actually called...
 This thing you may know as, its called... Religion!
 And this religion causes a bunch of... Conflict!
 Conflict, bang bang bang, that's literally what it sounds like
 So with all this (Conflict!) they understand they need some order
 So they create this thing called... Government!
 To keep each other in line, but guess what?
 It actually doesn't happen like that
 Guess what it creates? It creates a bunch more... Conflict!
 Oh my god, and out of all this conflict arises a president
 And this president is orange, he's got orange hair
 It's parted to the side, it looks really dumb
 He's chubby, and he's got little sausage fingers
 They look like Little Smokeys
 I personally love Little Smokeys
 Either way, he starts arguing with this leader
 On the other side of the world
 He's got a bowl cut, he's similarly pudgy
 He's got sausage fingers too
 I don't know what it is with guys with sausage fingers
 But it messes their minds up, right?
 So they start bickering like little children
 And one day the guy with orange hair is just like
 "You know what I'm gonna fucking do it, I've got a
 Small dick I ain't got nothing to lose"
 So he gets his thing, and he presses the button and it just goes
 Ba-ba-ba-bang bang and it blows him up
 And everybody dies
 Everybody dies
 Everybody dies
 What's the only thing that survives a nuclear war?
 Everyone say it on 5...
 1, 2, 3, 4... 5 Cockroaches!
 So the cockroaches are really small
 But after millions of years they start getting bigger
 Then one day they start losing their fucking shale... shells
 And losing their fucking antennas
 And then their fucking brains get so big
 They understand these really scary concepts
 And the concepts that they are going to... Die!
 But guess what, they don't wanna die
 So they create this new thing called... Religion!
 But it creates a newer thing called... Conflict!
 So then they protect each other, so they create... Government!
 But then it creates even more... Conflict!
 Oh my god, and out of the conflict arises this fucking president
 He's a cockroach, he's a little small boy
 And he gets really fucking insecure
 About his place in the world, ha ha ha, classic
 So he finds some guy to project onto
 And they start bickering, and he bickers and bickers
 The other guy's like, "Fuck you"
 The other guy's like, "Fuck you motherfucker"
 But he has to go to his top cockroach scientist
 Because guess what, nukes don't fucking work on cockroaches
 It bounces off them like... a soft ocean breeze
 So the president fucking, he's like
 "Ok I'm gonna do it"
 So he devises a new missile
 He talks to his top cockroach scientist, imagine that
 A big humanlike cockroach in a fucking labsuit with glasses on, heh
 So he fucking tells him, he's like
 "We need a missile that kills cockroaches"
 So the scientist is like
 "Ok I got it, it's gonna be a missile
 And on the end of the missile instead of a nuke
 It's one giant, president it's a giant, it's a giant..."
 SHOE!
 AND IT BLOWS HIM UP
 It's a giant... shoe, heh
 Classic, classic, classic, classic, classic, I mean
 I mean, we just tryna chill
 We didn't come here to show off, or like floss our shit
 Or anything like that
 We just came to chill and have fun
 And I guess that's what life's all about
 Ha ha, let go
