Higgs Boson Blues Lyrics

Can't remember anything at all
Flame trees lined the streets
Can't remember anything at all
But I'm driving my car down to Geneva

I been sitting in my basement patio
Aye, it was hot
Up above girls walk past
Their roses all in bloom
Have you ever heard about the Higgs Boson Blues?
I'm goin' down to Geneva, baby
Gonna teach it to you

Who cares, who cares what the future brings?
Black road long and I drove and drove
I came upon a crossroad
The night was hot and black
I see Robert Johnson with a ten dollar guitar
Strapped to his back
Looking for a tune

Well here comes Lucifer
With his canon law
And a hundred black babies running from his genocidal jaw
He got the real killer groove
Robert Johnson and the devil, man
Don't know who's gonna rip off who

Driving my car, flame trees on fire
Sitting and singin' the Higgs Boson Blues
I'm tired, I'm lookin' for a spot to drop
All the clocks have stopped in Memphis now
In the Lorraine Motel, it's hot
It's hot, that's why they call it a hot spot

I take a room with a view
Hear a man preaching in a language that's completely new, yeah
Making the hot cots in the flophouse bleed
While the cleaning ladies sob into their mops
And the bellhop hops and bops
And a shot rings out to a spiritual groove
Everybody bleeding to the Higgs Boson Blues

And if I die tonight
Bury me in my favourite yellow patent leather shoes
With a mummified cat and a cone-like hat
That the Caliphate forced on the Jews
Can you feel my heart beat?
Can you feel my heart beat?

Hannah Montana does the African Savannah
As the simulated rainy season begins
She curses the queue at the Zulus
And moves on to Amazonia
And cries with the dolphins

And mama ate the pygmy
The pygmy ate the monkey
The monkey has a gift that he is sending back to you
Look here come the missionary
With his smallpox and flu

He's saving them savages
With his Higgs Boson Blues
I'm driving my car down to Geneva
I'm driving my car down to Geneva

Oh, let the damn day break
Rainy days always make me sad
Miley Cyrus floats in a swimming pool in Toluca Lake
And you're the best girl I ever had
Can't remember anything at all
