Like Flies - Gov't Mule

We’re at a place in history where the bar is at an all time low

We’ve applauded mediocrity till there is no lower we can go

Art has no place in this world of supersize

Follow the leader to the latest pile of shit

Like flies

And those who peddle it sold their own souls long ago

They would not know the difference between Vin Diesel and Van Gogh

They stare at me with envy with their big green bugging eyes

Spreading filth, buzzing all around my head

Like flies

Like flies

Feast or famine, peace or war — life will get you in the end

Sex, drugs, powerlines and vaccinations — something’s going to do you in

There ain’t no way of stopping death when it’s time for your demise

All my heroes and friends are dropping

Like flies

Like flies
