lyrics

I met you down at the flagpole
Petitioned among the faithful
And those who had the ears to hear it
We stood shoulder to shoulder and you smelled like teen spirit

Our country of origin facing charges
Conscripted to protest pro choice marches
Self-flagellate like David breaking God's commands
I saw you change into our matching youth group t-shirts behind the church van

We heard the praise band getting started
While we fucked in the chapel garden

All I really want is happiness you and me
My love for you is infinite in quantity
It fits most mid-sized minivans and SUVs
All I really want is happiness

Bumper sticker fish in strip mall craft store chains
Every straight wedding cake baked in vain
Is shepherded into a solid mass
By the class who twists wrists with myths of bootstraps
Choir members are chewing cud
Among the tailing piles of backslidden ones
You felt it first white church is faith
In the tolerance of torment for a decent wage

We are caged creatures plotting our escape
From growing up and playing it safe

All I really want is happiness you and me
Scrupulously proportionate
To this state of emergency
Life and liberty and the pursuit of private property
All I really want is happiness

All I really want is happiness you and me
A grafted branch of necessity on your family tree
All I really want is to

With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now entertain us
A mulatto an albino a mosquito my libido
Load up on guns and bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over bored and self assured
I know I know a dirty word
