[...] I went down like a rag doll,
shooken and shy
It looked like we were photographed
At gunpoint, so I had to laugh.
Every will, every will, every will
oh every will is a suspension of disbelief.
Henry, you dance like a wooden indian.
We took all that we could carry but we tried to carry more.
Just to tell you i could not have seen
through the gist of those unhappy happy accidents.
It's weeds pulling weeds and you're blaming yourself
OK, we're all indifferent in our own way.
Well, there's one thing to know about this town,
Not a person doesn't want me underground.
and that's alright.
Oh my god,
I've got to, got to, got to, got to move on.
Where do you move when what you're movin' from,
Is yourself?
Out of Gas, Out of road, out of car, out of everything at last.
I don't know, but I've been told;
You'll never die and you'll never grow old.
The sign said triple-x,
but they were talkin' 'bout root-beer.
Well, there's one thing to know about this town,
It's 500 miles underground.
and that's alright.
This is what he said, "When I have sex,
I'm always thinkin' 'bout the pavement
So I can avoid premature ejaculation."
I got up remembering to thank him
Better things to do, so I'll start drinkin' now
Well how the heck did you think you could beat them
at the same time that you're tryin to be them?
I guessed you guessed that I'd catch hell,
I guessed you guessed that I'd catch hell,
I just caught a cold but now I'm feeling well.
Aha.
I can't hear you, I can't hear you talk about your dreams involving me. And I don't believe, I don't believe that they are any sort of prophecy at all.
And the plants and the animals eat each other.
You're the icing
On the cake
On the table
At my wake.
