Lyrics[]
- Can't remember anything at all
- Flame trees lined the streets
- Can't remember anything at all
- But I'm driving my car down to Geneva
- I been sitting in my basement patio
- Aye, it was hot
- Up above girls walk past
- Their roses all in bloom
- Have you ever heard about the Higgs Boson Blues?
- I'm goin' down to Geneva, baby
- Gonna teach it to you
- Who cares, who cares what the future brings?
- Black road long and I drove and drove
- I came upon a crossroad
- The night was hot and black
- I see Robert Johnson with a ten dollar guitar
- Strapped to his back
- Looking for a tune
- Well here comes Lucifer
- With his canon law
- And a hundred black babies running from his genocidal jaw
- He got the real killer groove
- Robert Johnson and the devil, man
- Don't know who's gonna rip off who
- Driving my car, flame trees on fire
- Sitting and singin' the Higgs Boson Blues
- I'm tired, I'm lookin' for a spot to drop
- All the clocks have stopped in Memphis now
- In the Lorraine Motel, it's hot
- It's hot, that's why they call it a hot spot
- I take a room with a view
- Hear a man preaching in a language that's completely new, yeah
- Making the hot cots in the flophouse bleed
- While the cleaning ladies sob into their mops
- And the bellhop hops and bops
- And a shot rings out to a spiritual groove
- Everybody bleeding to the Higgs Boson Blues
- And if I die tonight
- Bury me in my favourite yellow patent leather shoes
- With a mummified cat and a cone-like hat
- That the Caliphate forced on the Jews
- Can you feel my heart beat?
- Can you feel my heart beat?
- Hannah Montana does the African Savannah
- As the simulated rainy season begins
- She curses the queue at the Zulus
- And moves on to Amazonia
- And cries with the dolphins
- And mama ate the pygmy
- The pygmy ate the monkey
- The monkey has a gift that he is sending back to you
- Look here come the missionary
- With his smallpox and flu
- He's saving them savages
- With his Higgs Boson Blues
- I'm driving my car down to Geneva
- I'm driving my car down to Geneva
- Oh, let the damn day break
- Rainy days always make me sad
- Miley Cyrus floats in a swimming pool in Toluca Lake
- And you're the best girl I ever had
- Can't remember anything at all
