Song Lyrics

He's been with the world
I'm tired of the soup do jour
He's been with the world
I went to end this prophylactic tour
Afraid that no one around me
Understands my potato
Think I'm only a spudboy
Looking for a real tomato
He's been with the world
I'm tired of the soup do jour
He's been with the world
I want to end this prophylactic tour
Afraid nobody around here
Understands my potato
I think I'm only a spudboy
Looking for a real tomato
He's been with the world
And I'm tired of the soup do jour
He's been with the world
I want to end this prophylactic tour
Afraid nobody around here
Comprehends my potato
Guess I'm just a spudboy
Looking for that real tomato

[Chorus]
The smart patrol, nowhere to go
Suburban robots that monitor reality
Common stock, we work around the clock
We shove the poles in the holes

[Chorus: x2]

Shove it

[Chorus]

Wait a minute, something's wrong
He's the man from the past
He's here to do us a favor
A little human sacrifice
It's just supply and demand

[Chorus 2]
Mr. Kamikaze, Mr. DNA
He's an altruistic pervert
Mr. DNA, Mr. Kamikaze
Here to spread some (genes now)

[Chorus 2: x2]

Wait a minute, something's wrong
He's a man with a plan
His finger's pointed at Devo
Now we must sacrifice ourselves
That many others may live
OK, we've got a lot to give

[Chorus 2: x3]

One, two, three, four!

Gerald V. Casale, Mark Mothersbaugh
