SENSELESS

The other day...

The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day

Maybe repetition will let it sink in
It's too easy to let it be surreal
It was just a made for TV movie right
Just another hollywood special effect

The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day

There's a giant crater in Manhattan
They say it was a building once
I think I saw that movie
Didn't Harrison Ford play the president

The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day

Soon the bombs will fall, won't that be great
Endless nights of entertainment
Thousands of deaths in flashes of seething green
Hopefully my AOL stock will climb

The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day

Maybe HDTV will change everything
I'll hear the tragedies in 7.1 digital surround sound
I'll see every pixel of suffering broadcast live via satellite
Maybe then it will seem real

The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day

I want to cry, but I don't know them
They aren't real, they're just actors
How can they be real
How can that horror be real

The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day
The shuttle was destroyed the other day
