Petri-Dish Video (MV)






Simon Joyner - Petri-Dish Lyrics




Petri Dish


Alex is in love with his Special K
And Chris is in love with philosophy
And Bill is in love with Woody Guthrie
And I'm in love with suffering


When I was young, I was delinquent
I was in love with vandalism
Just like the kid in the sunshine state
Who through a rock through a window
And got a bullet through his braces


The kids are alright with suffering, I guess




The billboard said that we need blood bad
Because an act of God is a hard act to follow
The earth is a hostile Petri dish
It makes that wafer so hard to swallow
Nobody cried on Calvary
Because Jesus died for our suffering


If you're not part of the problem
You're part of the solution
There's a color-wheel lodged
In the throat of the nation
While the brothers blow their brothers away
The cops are getting it all down on video tape
Because the public servants
Are in love with public suffering


Alex is in love with razor blades
Chris is in love with The Minutemen
So we all tip our waiters and our waitresses
Even though we know they don't stand a chance
We tip them anyway
Because we are all in love with their suffering
