People who know enough to anticipate disaster but maybe not avoid it, and so delight in watching others fall victim to it
lyrics
You're coming for me with your silver spoon
with your figures and your charts that forecast doom
but you don't make that mistake...
you stood there silent as a Carmelite
calmly gesturing with your Armalite
slyly suggesting that I step inside
but you don't make that mistake...
you blew a bubble of plastic around yourself
now it's collapsed and you're in hell
- polyethylene skin and a lingering smell
of burning grease, discomfit and verdegris
but you don't make that mistake...
When I see you climbing up the pole
I hope that you will fall
When I see you climbing up the pole
I know that you will fall
