Lyrics

John was a scientist, he was hooked on LSD
Interested in mind control and how the monkey held the key
Said that all life is experiments somebody's planning for the heir
It's for the unexpected citizens who hallucinate in fear.
Sing that.
Chew the backbone, a solar system, he's cut off convicts
Chew the backbone, a solar system, he's cut off convicts
In union station, with a package in his hand
Tied to the suspect, he chanced him where he stand
And I don't think you realise he's coming for your neck
And the sound is breaking all around
He's keeping lives in check
Chew the backbone, a solar system, he's cut off convicts
Chew the backbone, a solar system, he's cut off convicts
Making his getaway through a punched out mirror
He blend into the crowd, hear the system scream
And all those stars and stripes you hear
Are clinging to their guns
And if you smell those omens man, I think you better run.
Checkout
Chew the backbone, a solar system, he's cut off convicts
Chew the backbone, a solar system, he's cut off convicts
