[Verse 1]
Put on my best shirt and shined up my shoes
Feelin' just fine 'til I scrolled through the news
Now I know better, better than you
Swallowin' lies just to choke on the truth
[Chorus]
We are filthy rotten
Did you hear the news today?
We're lost and forgotten
In love with our decay
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
It don't bother me 'cause I got my own
Shut your mouth, just believe what you're shown
So much opinion leaves nothin' to learn
We lit the fuse, but we won't watch it burn 'cause
[Chorus]
We are filthy rotten
Did you hear the news today?
We're lost and forgotten
Transfixed by our decay
[Bridge]
Will it always be this way?
Doom scroll 'til judgment day
And will there be a price to pay?
Or does it matter at all anyway?
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
We're so connected, we're never alone
Disinformation is fused to our bones
We should know better
Better than this
Can't put our phones down to take a piss
[Chorus]
Yeah, we are filthy rotten
Did you hear the news today?
We're lost and forgotten
Embracin' our decay
[Coda]
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba)
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba (Ba)
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba (Ba)
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
More rotten every day (Hey)
[Outro]
Alright (Alright)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
We're filthy rotten
And we just don't care
