A tumor we could not remove
So I guess it's just as well
Working off the theory I could never prove
And the noise rising up from the bar underneath
If there weren't women present we wouldn't be here
I tried walking backwards to get less confused
Like a new constitution
And the pot turned to powder and soured the mood
Watching the horse as it follows the cart
So let's make like we're friends"
Solitaire, crosswords and films on demand
I said "I'll tell you the secret, which one's your good ear?
Just get it together to take it apart
So I asked like a child, "May I be excused?"
You start to smell that human smell
When you turn from a cartoon back into a man
Why do I envy the ending right from the start
In time we'll win the world like a failed revolution
I sweep up my broken spell
And so I sleep with the fan on to drown out the street
And I felt something changing the world
Now, my days are distractions sit wringing my hands
And disobeyed them all
He said, "How did you ever dream up that song
And the people I'd come with were gone from the room
Into that late night latrine rain soaking through my shoes
But for that inconvenience all my drinks are free
That it was life itself to blame
The one where the baby dies?"
Yeah, people are made up of water and fear
A thief I would have to pursue
An old friend, a constant the blues
