Lilac Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's time for some human fun
You are a self-destruction
You are the colorful bomb
Pump your drums, drown your beats
Drown it out for all the elites
Pump your drums, drown your beats
Drown it out
Drown it out
Drown it out
Drown it out, out
Selfish meat-eating birds
Everybody's picking off of our corpse
Skull-born capitalistic
Making rash decisions with oil money
Pockets fill with your sweat
Medicine held up in your face like candy
Lizard-faced executive
Punches you down, it's a party trick
Burn your hair, both birds up
It's time for some government
You are a burning crusade
A flesh-turning brigade
Pump your drums, drown your beats
Drown it out for all the elites
Pump your drums, drown your beats
Drown it out
Drown it out
Drown it out
Drown it out
Drown it out, out
Selfish meat-eating birds
Everybody's picking off of our corpse
Skull-born capitalistic
Making rash decisions with oil money
Pockets fill with your sweat
Medicine held up in your face like candy
Lizard-faced executive
Punches you down, it's a party trick
Drown it out, out, out
Drown it out, out, out
Drown it out, out, out
Drown it out, out, out
The lyrics to Lilac's song "Birds" criticize the greed and selfishness of those in power who exploit the Earth's natural resources for their own gain. The song personifies these individuals as "selfish meat-eating birds" who profit from the destruction of our environment. The lyrics condemn their actions and call for drowning out their beats, indicating a desire to silence their harmful and oppressive agenda.
The lines "Skull-born capitalistic / Making rash decisions with oil money" highlight the recklessness and short-sightedness of the capitalist system. The song argues that the pursuit of profit often comes at the expense of the planet and its inhabitants, creating a vicious cycle of destruction.
