These lyrics contain several mature themes that warrant parental guidance. The song is a politically charged protest piece addressing systemic oppression, economic inequality, homelessness, and environmental destruction. Key concerns include: violent imagery ('throw all your limbs down a laundry chute'), references to 'designer drugs,' calls to 'kill the oppressor,' and generally dark, apocalyptic messaging. The spoken-word outro references real-world footage of homeless encampment clearings, adding a documentary rawness. There is no sexual content, profanity, or explicit language. The violence is metaphorical and politically motivated rather than gratuitous, and the drug reference is brief and contextual. The overall message is one of social justice and anti-authoritarian resistance, which, while potentially valuable for older teens, may be overwhelming or confusing for younger children. The dystopian framing and calls for violent resistance against oppressors push this into parental guidance territory.
Parasite man, what is your plan? Claim you're the highest intelligence Twist with your teeth, meaty and raw Tell me now, who is the savage here? And if I could have a moment with you I'd throw all your limbs down a laundry chute It wouldn't be cruel, just what you accrued Pressure, it boils 'til smoke ensues Rent is high, and the taxes due On a floating rock, burning avenues Where's the alien who can save us now? Mother Nature screams, death is guaranteed I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah Falling away, oh-ah, dying away, oh-ah I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah Falling away, oh-ah, burning away, oh-ah I'll say it again Heed to the warning, feed them the potion Wise are the tortured, trees by the ocean Keep your emotion, lead with devotion Kill the oppressor, drunk on corruption Bacteria, propaganda Lightning devices, designer drugs Breeding the youth, workers to foes If anyone questions the status quo Their bunkers and war is what we work for Our feelings are numb, and our pockets poor And competition, it doesn't exist They made it all up, so we don't resist Rent is high, and the taxes due On a floating rock, burning avenues Where's the alien who can save us now? Mother Nature screams, death is guaranteed I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah Falling away, oh-ah, dying away, oh-ah I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah Falling away, oh-ah, burning away, oh-ah I'll say it again Heed to the warning, feed them the potion Wise are the tortured, trees by the ocean Keep your emotion, lead with devotion Kill the oppressor, drunk on corruption Rent is high, and the taxes due On a floating rock, burning avenues Where's the alien who can save us now? Mother Nature screams, death is guaranteed I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah Falling away, oh-ah, dying away, oh-ah I'll say it again, burning away, oh-ah Falling away, oh-ah, burning away, oh-ah I'll say it again Heed to the warning, feed them the potion Wise are the tortured, trees by the ocean Keep your emotion, lead with devotion Kill the oppressor, drunk on corruption Arrests today after a confrontation Over the clearing of a homeless encampment We just saw the city arrest homeless people And throw all their stuff away The sanitation department just finished up Clearing out people who had been living on the street here
