Lyrics   status: confirmed

Tonight the city is full of morgues
And all the toilets are overflowing
There's shopping malls coming out of the walls
As we walk out among the manure

That's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind

Give the finger to the rock 'n' roll singer
As he's dancing upon your paycheck
The sales climb high through the garbage-pail sky
Like a giant dildo crushing the sun

That's why
I pay no mind
Sleep in slime

So get out your lead-pipe pipe dreams
Get out your ten-foot flags
The insects are huge and the poison's all been used
And the drugs won't kill your day job

That's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
I pay no mind

Track length: 3:04

NOTES:

  • A split single of Beck covering "Green Light" with SY covering Beck's "Pay No Mind" was released on Record Store Day in anticipation of The Eternal. The band did a very peculiar rendition, utilizing Lee and Kim's unison vocals in the spirit of The Eternal.
