Cause they've got years of experience

And it's contagious, and it's conagious

We wear our scarves just like a noose
But not cause we want eternal sleep
And though our parts are slightly used
New ones are slave labour you can keep

They made a statue of us, they made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
