About the Artist
Lyrics
Death is coming to get you It's mighty plain to see With a handful of cocaine And a long white limousine With diamonds on his fingers And his knives up his sleeve Sucking up the oxygen Till there's nothing left to breathe He's coming with a banjo That ain't got no strings Taserguns and vitamins And plastic tambourines He don't care if you're not ready He don't care if you're not dressed You can beg, he won't listen You can't bribe him with blank checks 'Cause he's coming with sunglasses Wrapped around his skull Brass-plated knuckles And a bulletproof soul His bodyguards are ugly And his slaves are all weak His wife's got the heads of Roasted pigs on their feet His children are all naked With broken arms and legs His parents are covered With dried and rotten eggs He's looking in the phone book For your number and your name And he's coming to your house While you're watching the game He's coming up the driveway With the windows rolled up tight And his eyes are all frozen And his hair is turning white He's creeping up the stairs With a can of mace He's breaking all the windows With your neighbor's face Your clothes burst into flames As you fall to your knees He's filling up the room With jesters and disease Well, he breaks all your records Decapitates your mom Raids the refrigerator Throws vermin on the lawn Smashes the TV Pours blood on the walls Uses your own telephone To make long distance calls He's laughing at your diary He's puking on your suits He's dancing on your forehead In your hiking boots He's crawling up the chimney He's falling through the roof He'll tie you up with snakes Take your drugs and booze He's got your little Sister Hanging by a braid He covers you with bacon And fills your mouth with Raid He's got everything you own Out on the patio And he's giving it away To people you don't know But you don't even care Your mind has been destroyed You're mutilated, deformed And unemployed

Beck will perform two shows at London's Royal Albert Hall in April, featuring symphonic arrangements with the BBC Concert Orchestra.

The track previews Peck's upcoming duets album, 'Stampede Vol. 2'.

The now-duo also have a few UK shows coming up.

The song was previously played at his intimate performance at Lafayette in London last September.

'We Love L.A.' features an impressive lineup of guests including Judd Apatow, Pink, Inara George, Beck, Grohl’s daughter Violet, Karen O, and Tenacious D.

Grohl shared via Foo Fighters' social media accounts that "it's a little known fact that our favorite Guero actually has Jewish roots".

The original featured on last year's 'The Story of Hugo' EP.
