about

One time 2 flies were fucking on my kitchen table.
I killed one of them.
The next morning I woke up to 20 flies on my kitchen ceiling.
Over the next 3 days I killed 90 flies.
I would spray their wings with lysol, smush them, and flush them down the toilet.

I became a fly killing ninja.
I felt it was some kind of sign of things to come.
I felt the flies trying to psychically connect with me so I would stop killing them.
It didn't work.
All the flies are dead.

This song is from the fly family's perspective.
RIP

lyrics

I was crawling around your basement
Looked at you and asked "what are your placements?"
I could read your cards
I could read your cards
Bugs can prophesies things to come
We have feelings, don't smush us
I am a bug, I need love

I was buzzing around your basement
You were like "I can't take this"
I literally can't shut up
This is how my body goes up
Don't spray me with the lysol!
I just wanted to say
What's up?

I was crawling around your basement
Looked at you and asked "what are your placements?"
I could read your cards
I could read your cards
Bugs can prophesies things to come
We have feelings, don't smush us
I am a bug, I need love
