Lyrics:
City inside of a big, big man
Travelling the world in a short timespan
He drinks Alaskan water
To save the crops in Florida
Since it goes through the city in the big, big man
Dubai can't compete with the height that he stands
His kidneys ain't much cleaner
But the real estate is cheaper
So I'm moving to the city in the big, big man
(Moving to the city in the big, big man)
But why is there a city in a big, big man?
(Why is there a city in a big, big man?)
It all began in ancient times like any other day
Then suddenly the nearby mountains all melted away
At first they thought the end was nigh
That it marked their last goodbyes
Until they saw the big, big baby's hand reach for the skies
They were a little bit concerned
How'll he avoid getting sunburned?
So they got to work a-testin'
Figure out how he came to be
The results were inconclusive
An eternal mystery
So they did what they thought was best
And built little homes inside
And as he grew and learned to walk
The town came for the ride
You ask me "Why the hell did they build a town?"
I don't know, nobody ever wrote it down
Honestly, where do you get off asking me these stupid questions?
It's not that hard to wrap your head around
Around
Everybody with us? Good! With me, ladies and gentlemen, thank you!
Welcome to the tour
We're here to see the sights
Please take a brochure
And waivers for your rights (Uh, yeah, just sign there? Perfect)
The airport's in the lungs
(As I'm sure you knew)
Emergency's the heart
(But not the fire crew)
There's nothing on the tongue (But I have got a lot of buds over there)
(Not since '82)
And that's all just to start
We're using the nervous system today
To facilitate the tour
But when you need the subway, that's the bloodstream
(No prison, but we do have lots of cells)
The government's working hard in the brain
Yeah, of that, you can be sure
But we don't know what's going on in the spleen
(Absolutely no idea)
Excuse me, please
You need to sit down
Alright everybody, you know what to do! Money in the bag, let's go!
Hey!
No alarms, no alarms
Stay calm, stay calm
We're here for your money
No need for harm
Stay calm, stay calm
We just want your money
We've been counting all the days since the appendicitis took out all the condos
It's gotten harder and harder to see a future when the present that we got blows
Gentrification ain't helping
This city just ain't the melting pot that you wish it was
So that's why we're here today
To show you things aren't okay and that we have a cause
So stay calm, stay calm
Note that we're all armed
And here for your money
(Stay calm, stay calm)
(No need for harm)
(We're here for your money)
All the bills seem there
We'll get out of your hair
And thanks for the money
(Hope you have a nice day)
(We'll get out of your way)
(And thanks for the money)
I'm a rebellious teen
Who broke away from the group
What don't they want to be seen?
I think it's time for a snoop
I thought I'd check in the gills
But they're not part of the genus
Looks like I'll need all my skills
To sneak into the pancreas
Security within the duct is slack
Despite the hidden door found in the back
A sign upon it reads "Here lies the soul"
I kick the whole door in; that's how I roll
(lol there are too many lyrics to fit in the description beyond this point sorry)
