  • I had a vision that Mary of Magdalene
    Saw the future that awaits just before good Friday eve
    Figured the wages of salvation were a little too steep
    Said no one's fucking with my baby, lord, and got on to the teet

    Cleaning up
    Cleaning up
    Clean up
    She cleans up

    What is the one about the female alien
    Scarlett drives the Scottish countryside inside of a white van
    Oh, I dreamt about it last night and it did my whole day in
    Under something man I'm never gonna touch that shit again

    Cleaning up
    Cleaning up
    She cleans up
    Cleaning up

    I know just how this thing ends
    Hallelujah, woman, they got me confused with him
    I know, I get just how this thing ends
    Hallelujah, baby, I know who butters my bread

    When was the accident? Well, I presume you mean
    The condition of the silk kimono that didn't come cheap
    No did you sit down in a crime scene
    Just don't look between your knees
    Man, it's certainly a look
    Did she at least get the movie?

    Cleaning up
    Cleaning up
    She cleans up
    Cleaning up

    Use your discretion so I don't have to use mine
    I spent a hundred bucks on gas
    Baby, let's just have a good time
    How do you wait out for your son
    Now the rabbit's got the gun?
    She ain't joining you for dinner
    Been on the menu too long

    Cleaning up
    Cleaning up
    She cleans up
    Cleaning up

    I know just how this thing ends
    Hallelujah, guess we gave the karmic wheel a spin, oh, yeah
    I know just how this thing ends
    The aggriever goes aggressor and we do it all again

    Take it from a demon
    You can't say I never said
    Take it from a demon
    That the devil don't protect it's friends
    Take it from a demon
    He'll never work in this town again
    Take it from a demon
    He'll make sure an angel goes down next

    I know just how this thing ends
    The misogynists daughter made him rethink what he said
    I know just how this thing ends
    She has trouble reconciling
    Pops with the things that she read
    I know just how this thing ends
    Hundred billion babies born every millennium
    Oh, no, I know just how this thing ends
    Man, I hope nobody messes with the wrong rejected men, oh
    I know just how this thing ends
    Sure your politics are perfect with the gun aimed at your head
    I know just how this thing ends
    It's a good thing God gave us someone on whom we can depend to clean up Writer/s: Drew Erickson, Elias Junqvist, Henrik Mats Hockert, Joshua Tillman, Linus Hillborg, Oskar Bengt Emil Carls, Per Gunnerfeldt, Sebastian Declan Murphy, Tor Sol Magnus Sjoden
