Normalization Blues Paroles

I've got the normalization blues
This isn't normal, this isn't good

Now I'm detached and I'm distracted
I'm all keyed up and unproductive
Vacillating between being all excited and disgusted
And then dozing lackadaisically
In this bubble where I've made my mental home

Connection's more important now than it ever was
But I'd rather be alone

And when we talk about the president
We're either pissed off or we're giggling
About an atrocity he's committing
Or some stupid shit he's tweeting

He's a symptom and a weapon of the evil men who really run the show
The ones who melt down human beings into money like a cruel sorcerer's stone
And they try to divide us, largely they're succeeding
I can see the weather changing
And I can feel the soul decaying
I'm observing drastic changes in the way we're all behaving
And I can see the soothsaying
And furthermore, I could believe it to be true

Connection's more important now than it ever was
Buddy, what are you gonna do?

This is the golden age of bigotry
Probably the last golden age of anything
The ugliest word in the English language is "Anthropocene"
Good luck everybody
Good luck!
