You can feel it out in traffic, everyone hates everyone
CHORUS
All these jackoffs at the office, the rapist in the pool
Oh and the tragedies in the nurseries, little kids packin' guns to school
The ulcerated ozone, these tumors of the skin
This hostile sun beatin down on this massive mess we're in
CHORUS
Sex kills
Oh sex kills
Sex kills
