Reading science fiction ain't what it seems Seems to reconsider some conscious dreams A kid makes a promise to give what he's got With his fingers crossed and his guts in a knot A bad mother f**ker with a heart of gold If you asked the guy back would he do what he's told Like, don't forget your milk on your way back home The feeling's getting heavy can you leave it alone? This is my trial Yeah it's mine. It seemed like a good idea at the time It seemed like a good idea at the time I swear, I didn't realize at the time It seemed like a good idea Like a good idea. I stared so hard, but things start to melt That's questionable I know but still it's what I felt I'll get my degree then I'm planning to flee It's nothing I love No it don't matter to me But it's real Because you can read it. It seemed like a good idea at the time It seemed like a good idea at the time I swear, I didn't realize at the time It seemed like a good idea Like a good idea. It seemed like a good idea at the time It seemed like a good idea at the time I swear, I didn't realize at the time It seemed like a good idea
