Collapse Lyrics - Clem Snide

When it finally collapsed all you heard was the radio static 

And the fluttering sound of the bird that was trapped in the attic 

But you couldn't be sure that it wasn't just all in your head 

As you carefully swept all the broken glass out of your bed 

When it finally collapsed all the actors were hotly protested 

The people they had to portray were a little depressing 

So a grass roots initiative based upon sharing and trust 

Went into production to harness the power of dust 

When it finally collapsed as it had been since way before when 

The pedophiles did their rendition of You've Got a Friend 

Everyone had to admit that it wasn't half bad 

But they still felt uneasy fearing they'd be dismissed as a fad 

When it finally collapsed giant billboards made people aware 

Of the idea that we are comprised of just water and air 

A vandal had written that Jesus knows just how you feel 

When you're falling asleep, asleep at the wheel
