Mickey Mouse Is Dead Lyrics

Subhumans Mickey Mouse Is Dead

Mickey Mouse is dead
 Got kicked in the head
 Cos people got too serious
 They planned out what they said
 They couldn't take the fantasy
 Tried to accept reality
 Analyzed the laughs
 Cos pleasure comes in halves
 The purity of comedy
 They had to take it seriously
 Changed the words around
 Tried to make it look profound
 The comedian is onstage
 Pisstaking for a wage
 The critics think he's great
 But the laughter turns to hate

 Mickey Mouse is on TV
 And the kids stare at the screen
 But the pictures are all black and white
 And the words don't mean a thing
 Cos Mummy's got no money
 And daddy is in jail
 He couldn't afford the license
 She can't afford the bail, no

 The kids out in the road
 Their minds have all gone cold
 Cos Mickey Mouse is dead
 They shot him through the head
 With ignorance and scorn
 They believed in something new
 They read the papers, watched the films
 And thought they knew the truth

 Look what you've done to Mickey Mouse

 But reality deceives
 Whatever you believe
 There's always another idea
 And theirs is based on fear
 The fear of being sussed
 For what they really are
 The fear of being laughed at
 When they go too far

 They call it paranoia
 You can't laugh it away
 Until you come to realize
 Everyone's the same
 People hide their problems under faces of contempt
 They hide 'em, till it kills 'em, and no one is exempt
 Not even you

 Look what you've done to Mickey Mouse
 1, 2, 3, 4, look what you've done to Mickey Mouse
 1, 2, 3, 4, can't you even laugh it away?
