The Lazy Sunbathers

A world war
Was announced
Days ago
But they didn't know…

The lazy sunbathers
The lazy sunbathers

The sun burns through
To the planet's core
And it isn't enough
They want more

Nothing appears
To be between the ears
Of the lazy sunbathers
Too jaded to question stagnation

The sun burns through
To the planet's core
And it isn't enough
They want more

Religions fall
Children shelled
"...Children shelled? That's all very well,
But would you please keep the noise down low?
Because you're waking the lazy sunbathers..."


Oh, the lazy sunbathers
The lazy sunbathers
