After 13 seasons, the Adult Swim show “Aqua Teen Hunger Force” will finally come to an end on Sunday night at midnight, with a series finale titled “The Last One Forever and Ever (For Real This Time) (We ****ing Mean It)”. It featured a mournful original song by Patti Smith called “Aqua Teen Dream”. That’s how you wrap up a long-running absurdist cartoon series. Listen and find the lyrics below.

In its 13 seasons, “Aqua Teen” has featured musical contributions from Schoolly D, Josh Homme, Flying Lotus and Thundercat, Andrew W.K., and others.

I never dreamed
I’d be an Aqua Teen
Thirteen seasons 
What did it mean?
A Master Shake
Meatwad, a floating head
And now you’re dead 
And it’s the end
Of “Aqua Teen Hunger Force”
It’s the end
Of “Aqua Teen Hunger Force”
