The Synapsids are the collision of flesh and code — hominins wired into
artificial intelligence. New original tracks unfold alongside reengineered material pulled from the earlier bands of founders Bradford Grant Boyle and Tim Lunt.
They got the Volga River
from North to South
And they got Siberian Oil a pumping out
Year-round ports on the Baltic Sea
Sounds like something we all need
Summer Palace I'll meet you there
And then the big gig down at Red Square
Drinking and dancing in Lenin's tomb
We're going to party down on them real soon
I don't care about ideology
I don't care if they're all commies
I just want to
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Going to party down on the USSR real soon
The Stones are playing Moscow
Michael Jackson is in Murmansk
It'll blow your mind
to see Chernenko break dance.
I don't care about history
I don't care if they're all commies
I just want to
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Party, party
Going to party down on the USSR real soon
Mr. David Letterman
Mr. David Letterman
Used to be a weatherman
If you want some real comedy
Then run for the presidency
(Some kind of kooky, kooky, nutty crazy kind of thing)
And it would be real nice
With Paul as your vice
Larry Bud as Secretary of State
Vote the Late-Night Party in ’88
Mr. David Letterman
Used to be a weatherman
You couldn’t do any worse
Than the entertainer that got their first
(Some kind of kooky, kooky, crazy, nutty kind of thing)
Politics has been reduced to one-liners
Have a joke ready and lots of advisor
Have to register all those who stay up late
To vote for the ordinary lad from the Hoosier State
Mr. David Letterman
Used to be a weatherman
If you want some real comedy
Run for the presidency
(Some kind of kooky kooky nutty crazy kind of thing)
Imagine the guest you could have on your show
Mr. Gorbachev and dancing bears from Moscow
Oh my, my, World War Three has just begun
Spin Dave’s wheel of fun to see what will be done
Parasite (Candygram for Mongo)
Open sore in Asia
A puddle in the middle of the road
I should have worn shoes
Lonely Planet told me so
Special delivery
I've got eggs in my brain
Candygram for Mongo
Candygram for Mongo
Every animal has a parasite
Some are visible some are out of site
It's hard to define who is feeding on who
Who is the parasite and who is the food?

I've got eggs in my brain

Special delivery
I've got eggs in my brain
Candygram for Mongo
Candygram for Mongo
The only way to kill this parasite is with alcohol
So I drink every night until everything feels right
Candygram for Mongo
Candygram for Mongo
Every animal has a parasite
Some are visible some are out of site
It's hard to define who is feeding on who
Who is the parasite and who is the food?
I have a package for you special delivery
Encoded with RNA to cross the brain barrier
It's a magic evolutionary trick
Candygram for Mongo

Ooh Baby, Baby
It's just another one of my confessions
I would hate you you to get the wrong impression
And the scientist will mutter disrespectfully
It will all end in explosive disassembly
It will all end in explosive disassembly
All knowledge is a function of social constructs
Interpretation can only add to the muck
Nanook sees 27 flavors but I see one
So far the main purpose is to have fun
So far the main purpose is to have fun
Baby, baby, baby. Baby, baby, baby.
Ooh ooh ooh.
Time doesn't pass
No time doesn't pass
But we all do
Baby, baby, baby. Baby, baby, baby.
Ooh ooh ooh.
Time doesn't pass
No time doesn't pass
But we all do
Selective perception and adaptive behavior
Everyone is their own personal savior
I'm homeostatic but I am consistent
As long as I can perceive
Then I am existent
As long as I can perceive
Then I am existent
Baby, baby, baby. Baby, baby, baby.
Ooh ooh ooh.
Time doesn't pass
No time doesn't pass
But we all do
Baby, baby, baby. Baby, baby, baby.
Ooh ooh ooh.
Time doesn't pass
No it doesn't pass
But we all do
But we all do
But we all do
