Bunker Berries

[Verse 1]
Down in the lab where the floor lights flash
World outside turning into ash
Scientists sweating by the stainless tray
Saying, "Captain White, can you taste today?"

Red one
Blue one
Green one too
He said, "Doc, I hate what I'm telling you"
He wiped his mouth and he stared at the door
Nothing tastes good anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
Then the old doc slid through the smoke
With a little red berry and a serious look
She said, "Chew this slow, don't ask me why
Let it roll where the sweet things died"

[Chorus]
Try this
Get it in your mouth
Try this
While the world burns down
If the king's upstairs
And the floor's at war
Try this
Nothing tastes good anymore

Try this
Turn the sour into shine
Try this
Put the groove back in your mind
If the sugar won't sing
Like it sang before
Try this
Nothing tastes good anymore

[Verse 2]
Thirty seconds, tongue to cheek
Lab coats counting like a holy beat
Ten, twenty, thirty, go
Now give that gummy little thing a show

He bit down
Eyes went wide
Whole room leaned to the sweeter side
He saw the Queen in a neon storm
He saw the bitter world reborn

[Pre-Chorus]
The bunker shook
The sirens cried
Somebody said, "Is he laughing or alive?"
Captain White stood up real slow
Said, "Doctor, where did that flavor go?"

[Chorus]
Try this
Get it in your mouth
Try this
While the world burns down
If the king's upstairs
And the floor's at war
Try this
Nothing tastes good anymore
