Nobody here is nice

You can call me a lick spittle but that will never stick

Mention anything you want but you better do it quick

There's a hundred ways I'm dead and a thousand ways I live

There's a recipe for hell and that's something that I could give

She said "you're the one I want "I said "I'm the one you need"

My feet never left the ground but I was travelling at speed

I wiped the insects from my face and we met up in a kiss

She said "you're still the one I want but I didn't think of this"

I saw the sun burn down just behind the refinery

The smoky tails and restless whales and that industrial scenery

There was moment when I flinched like footsteps across my grave

While  fossil fuel's fire up the sky artificial intelligence is safe

We cracked devices and then cracked walnuts with our arms

The depravity knew no bounds but they said they meant no harm

Some set alight to books  so we didn't ask for trouble

The barman whispered "drinks on the house" then please make mine a double

You can take the things you like and carry them outside

They won't amount to much and you'll be punished for your pride

Here's some humble evidence here's some terrible advice

Real men only growl and howl they don't use words like "nice"

Nobody here is nice.
