We'll end up numb from playing video games
And we'll get sick of having sex
And we'll get fat from eating candy
As we drink ourselves to death
We'll stay up late making mix tapes
Photoshopping pictures of ourselves
While we masturbate to these pixelated videos
Of strangers fucking themselves
We are very busy people
We are very busy people
There's crusty socks and stacks of pizza boxes
Making trails straight to the bed
And when we're done sleeping we'll stay busy dreaming
Of the things we don't have yet
Well there's a long long list of chores
And shit to do before we play
Oh let's just piss away the day
Crank call the cops down at the station
Just for friendly conversation
Requesting songs they never play
Let's hear the one that goes like
We are very busy people
We are very busy people
But we've always got time for new friends
So come on over and knock on our door
It's open, what ya waiting for
We might be sprawled out on the floor
But we still make lovely company
Pull up a chair I'll pour some tea
We'll shoot the shit 'bout everything
'Till you get sick of politics and flip on the tv screen
We stare at the tv screen
That Donnie Darko DVD has been repeating for a week
And we know every single word
I've got an iPod like a pirate ship
I'll sail the seas with fifty thousand songs I've never heard
All the best of them go
Fa la la la la la la la...
We are very busy people
We are very busy people
But we've always got time for new friends
Fa la la la la la la la...
