SWIM
ANGRY

I feel like I’m going crazy every dayI’m probably lying to you if I say everything’s okayI can’t forget to leave the house without wearing a smileI really don’t want the questions or the faux-concern dogpile

You might think you need to ask “Is everything okay with you, Fish?”You don’t want to open that can of worms, because I might just grant your wishThere’s always something brewing in my head, and if you really want to knowThe best way that I can explain it all is with a ThunderShark show

Am I the only one who thinks all of this bullshit that’s happening is fucking nuts?It’s patently absurd, every last fucking word, that they utter and expect us all to trustEvery day I think “It can’t get worse than this”And every day I’m proven wrongSo I sit down and pour all of my anger and disgustInto another ThunderShark song

I’m not scared, I’m fucking terrifiedI’m feeling sick, I need to get off of this rollercoaster ride

This fascist regime isn’t the only thing that’s fucking with my zenI’ve got a big old list of some personal shit that seems like it never endsSome days it feels like I’m living in an old country western songI’m just waiting for another flood or drought to come along

It doesn’t matter at this point if I have the energyI just dig deeper, gotta get it done, the burden is all on meI didn’t ask for any of this shit, but I’m still here and hanging onIf I didn’t give a fuck at all, you know, I’d already be gone

Am I the only one who thinks all of this bullshit that’s happening is fucking nuts?It’s patently absurd, every last fucking word, that they utter and expect us all to trustEvery day I think “It can’t get worse than this”And every day I’m proven wrongSo I sit down and pour all of my anger and disgustInto another ThunderShark song

I’m not scared, I’m fucking terrifiedI’m feeling sick, I need to get off of this rollercoaster ride

Somebody should do something, don’t you think?It’s such a tragedy, this thing that’s happeningThere are so many things that we need to doAnd I’ll get started on them right after you

This list of concerns that you have made looks fineBut there are some changes that I have in mindIt’s crazy how easy that this all could beIf you would have started off with listening to me

Because I know everything that you do, times twoSo don’t try to argue with me, you’re bound to loseI’m an expert on everything that existsI’m the best and the brightest that there ever was and is

I’ve never seen this thing beforeBut I know just what to doDoesn’t matter how long you’ve been dealing with itOr what you’ve been going through

All you’ve got to do is forget everything you knowKick back, relax, and let me run the showBecause I’ve seen it all, and I know it allAnd I’ve got just the cure in mindSo let me do my thing right nowAnd I’m sure that you will find

That I know everything that you do, times twoSo don’t try to argue with me, you’re bound to loseI’m an expert on everything that existsI’m the best and the brightest that there ever was and is

I almost forgot the most amazing partEven in the future no one will ever be this smart

Because I know everything that you do, times twoSo don’t try to argue with me, you’re bound to loseI’m an expert on everything that existsI’m the best and the brightest that there ever was and is

I thought I understood youIt turns out that I was wrongI had been hoping to improve thingsBeen seeking consensus for so long

I thought we could find common groundIn the root of your concernsBut you don’t care about anythingYou just want to watch the world burn

There’s no sincerity in your thoughtNo devotion to the truthJust a reliance on vulgarityAnd pride in being so uncouth

If you can meet me in realityMaybe then we can sit and talkUntil then I’m going to save myselfI’m gonna take a walk

Because I’ve tried and tried and tried and tried, I’ve tried so longSo consider this a big FUCK YOU in a song

This is all in your hands now, so good luckI hope you don’t screw it up, but at this point I don’t have the energy to give a fuck

And I know this is gonna hurt, but here’s a secret for you, my friendI’ve been hurting so long already, I’m looking forward to the end

I’m looking forward to the endTo the end, I’m looking forward to the end

The worms eat my scrapsAnd live beneath my feetI have everything I could ever wantBut I still feel incomplete

Because these worms don’t understandJust how much that they need meAnd I’ll kill every last fucking one of themUntil they bend the goddamn knee

I’ll show the world how much I matterI think I’ll finally prove my worthI’m the motherfucking Worm KingTo me you’re less than dirt

You might not recognize meBut I’m no stranger to this placeI may have sounded just a little differentMaybe even had a different face

Now the worms that stand behind meAre the only ones that remainThe others that didn’t sing my praiseFound their way to an early grave

’Cause I’m the motherfucking Worm KingYou’ll learn to fear me soon enoughI’ll teach you the meaning of revengeMy threats are no longer idle bluffs

Yeah, I’m the motherfucking Worm KingTo me you’re less than dirtI’m the motherfucking Worm KingAnd I’m gonna make you hurt

From where I sit I cannot seeWhy any worms would ever complainI have given up my time and lifeAnd my sacrifice is met with disdain

Can’t you fucking worms see the things I’ve doneAll the things that I’ve denied myself?I didn’t kill every last one of youI saved some of you from facing hell

I’m the motherfucking Worm KingAnd I’ve sacrificed my lifeCan’t you fucking worms see the fucking truth?I’m the fucking Worm Jesus Christ!

Yeah, I’m the motherfucking Worm KingTo me you’re less than dirtI’m the motherfucking Worm KingAnd I’m gonna make you hurtYeah, I wanna make you hurt

It’s been far too long since I’ve felt a sense of wonderThe nature of reality keeps pulling me underThese days I might be stunned, or I might even be amazedBut my sense of wonder was lost somewhere amongst this latest craze

So many facts about the universe are mindblowingly coolBut I hate the fact that I share this rock with so many goddamn foolsWhen I was a kid I thought that adults had everything under controlIt’s crazy how fucking wrong I was, this is quite a fucking hole

Some folks don’t want to stop digging, some are just looking to fightAnd some folks don’t care what you do at all, as long as you’re rich, male, or white

So it’s no wonder that I’m somber and feeling WonderLostEmpathy in this modern world incurs a soulcrushing costEmpathy in this modern world incurs a soulcrushing cost

I used to believe that everyone was trying to do the right thingI certainly was delusional, just look at the fucking Worm KingIt’s hard to fathom that anyone could act like such a prickAnd it physically hurts how many morons still buy his fucking schtick

If that offends you, I’m surprised, I’ve been using my big fancy wordsMaybe I should dumb down the next part for you Worm King-supporting turds

I hate the fucking Worm King, call me deranged, I don’t careHe doesn’t build things, only destroys, and he has really stupid hairHe lies and cheats, and people cheer, and I don’t understand it!I thought Jesus taught us to stand against the evil and underhanded!Yeah, Jesus taught us to stand against the evil and underhanded!

So it’s no wonder that I’m somber and feeling WonderLostEmpathy in this modern world incurs a soulcrushing costYeah, it’s no wonder that I’m somber and feeling WonderLostEmpathy in this modern world incurs a soulcrushing cost

Don’t want to spend my life being fucking madI can’t be hyper-irate every dayBut I take a look around at what’s going onAnd in my soul I know that it’s not okay

I put my rage in a box, I keep it locked up tight’Til I can find the right time to let it outI promise I don’t walk around like this all the timeThis is how I feel, but it’s not all that I’m about

I got my wife, my cats, I take care of my dadI work my ass off at whatever I doSo if I’m gonna get up here on this stageI’m gonna give it hell while I’m doing this, too

I don’t need this fascist bullshit in my lifeI just want to kick back and chillI want to sing songs about bears and elephantsNot fascist pedophiles and their fucking shills

Now it might be fun to sing things like the Worm KingBut it fucking sucks deep downThat I felt compelled to write any song at allAbout that fucking clown!

I just want an RV, to tour the countryI want to camp in some cool placesBut I can’t go to any RV campground anymoreWithout seeing a flag for that pedophile rapist

And somehow, some way, these fucking dopesWant four more years of this messWe’re through the looking glass nowMaking everything worse, is somehow a success

I wish I could find some place somewhere in this worldWhere I could hide away from all of thisJust my wife, my cats, my guitar, and meBoondockin’ in the wilderness, but…

You know these fascist FUCKS won’t leave my dream aloneThey want to sell off all our public landsDestroy it all for a buck, so if you’re not richToo bad, you’re out of luck, no more helping hands

Don’t want to spend my life being fucking madI can’t be hyper-irate every dayBut I take a look around at what’s going onAnd in my soul I know that it’s not okay

I put my rage in a box, I keep it locked up tight’Til I can find the right time to let it outI promise I don’t walk around like this all the timeThis is how I feel, but it’s not all that I’m about

I got my wife, my cats, I take care of my dadI work my ass off at whatever I doIf I’m gonna take a stand up here on this stageI’m gonna give it hell while I’m doing this, too

I don’t need this fascist bullshit in my lifeI just want to kick back and chillI want to sing songs about bears and elephantsNot fascist pedophiles and their fucking shills

I just want an RV, to tour the countryI want to camp in some cool placesBut I can’t go to any RV campground anymoreWithout seeing a flag for that pedophile rapist

And somehow, some way, these fucking dopesWant four more years of this shitWe’re through the looking glass nowMaking everything worse, doesn’t matter one fucking bit

Don’t want to spend my life being fucking madI can’t be hyper-irate every dayBut I take a look around at what’s going onAnd in my soul I know that it’s not okay

I put my rage in a box, I keep it locked up tight’Til I can find the right time to let it outI promise I don’t walk around like this all the timeThis is how I feel, but it’s not all that I’m about

I wish I could find some place somewhere in this worldWhere I could hide away from all of thisJust my wife, my cats, my guitar, and meBoondockin’ in the wilderness

My heart is broken, I’m feeling numbThings didn’t have to end up like thisThough I don’t know what I could have doneTo prevent this apocalypse

Don’t tell me I’m overreactingBecause we’re too far off the mapI can’t promise I won’t say I told you soWhen this bullshit bites us all in the ass

That’s right, I think we’re fucked, this is gonna suckI finally understand my prepper friendsGot some shelves in the basement, I’m stocking upGonna hoard as much TP as I can

’Cause I remember the Covid pandemicYeah, it wasn’t that long agoIt’s like we all tried to forget that crazy shitLike toilet paper shortages at Costco

But at least I learned my lessonI won’t make the same mistake againI got a mountain of Charmin locked awayAnd a stockpile of ammunition

So just try to come and take it, you know what I meanThe world is ending, but my ass is gonna be super clean, yeah

I’m headed out into the worldI gotta stock up on some suppliesI can’t keep up, every time I checkThere’s another bullshit surprise

You never know what kind of newsThat each new day might bringGood morning, America, holy shit!It’s just one more crazy thing

I try to plan for every awful possibilityBut I don’t see the point in tryingThe only thing that I can count on these daysIs the motherfucking Worm King’s constant lying!

Now I don’t think there’ll be tariffs on TPBut you never know what’s possible these daysAsk not what your country can do for youDitch that crappy toilet paper for a bidet

Yeah, get yourself a bidet, it’s gotta be “Made in the USA”

The world is ending, the world is endingThe world is ending, but my ass is gonna be super clean, super clean, super clean.

It’s hard to hear you say you like thisAll I see is a country in crisisPeople living in fear of the governmentDon’t you always rant about the second amendment?

You claim you need those guns to keep tyrants at bay,Well have you seen what the fuck is going on today?It’s impossible to get through to youYou just regurgitate some bullshit from Fox News

Oh, I see, I see BSYou don’t need to fill me in on the restI don’t give a fuck about what you’re trying to sayI know it’s all bullshit anyway

Turn off the right wing propaganda machineAnd come back to facts and realityDon’t let them fill your brain with lies and hateThey’ve been trying to hide the truth since Watergate

I hope and I pray that you’re not too far goneThen you say you still believe in QAnonI’d be laughing if things weren’t so fucking direYou’re talking bullshit while the world’s on fire

Oh, I see, I see BSYou don’t need to fill me in on the restI don’t give a fuck about what you’re trying to sayI know it’s all bullshit anyway

The mask is off now and you’re flat out lyingStill talking bullshit and now people are dyingIs this how we Make America Great Again?With ICE agents murdering US citizens?

Oh, I see, I see BSYou don’t need to fill me in on the restI don’t give a fuck about what you’re trying to sayI know it’s all bullshit anyway
