About a synthetic blue rose bush smothered in the repugnant styrofoam clutches of humanity's seething avarice.
lyrics
In this world of shadows and poses
Everything breaks, and nothing decomposes
These styrofoam prisons are choking out my blue roses
Everything crashes and everything loads
Everything’s plastic and anything goes
Are your children starving?
Well good, that’s what I need
A population so exploitable, they’ll do anything for my greed
Everything crashes and everything loads
Everything’s plastic and anything goes
In this world of shadows and poses
Everything breaks, and nothing decomposes
These styrofoam prisons are choking out my blue roses
Styrofoam prisons choking out my blue roses
My blue roses
My blue roses
