|
All the words in my mouth that the scene deemed |
|
Unworthy of letting out banded together |
|
To form a make*******ft militia and burrowed |
|
Bloodily through my tongue and my teeth |
|
I stood proud in the gallery |
|
With my open socket of a mouth for them to see |
|
They all just laughed and said |
|
"That boy , he, that boy's got woe, he lives with woe" |
|
(Woe, woe) |
|
And this girl who I met whose pride makes her hard to forget |
|
She took pity on me but most likely because of my band |
|
(Horizontally, hey) |
|
It's all I can get when I'm lonely |
|
And these visions of death seem to own me |
|
In the quiet of the classrooms all across the stacked United States of Woe |
|
We live with woe |
|
She said, "I can't get laid in this town without these pointy ******* shoes |
|
My feet are so black and blue and so are you" |
|
Please take me out of my body up through the palm trees |
|
To smell California in sweet hypocrisy floating |
|
My senses surround my body, |
|
I wake my nose to smell that ocean burn |
|
So now I'm forging ahead past all the plutocrats who sold me out |
|
Go sob in your bed, if life is twice as pretty |
|
Once you're dead then send me a card |
|
I'm still the optimist though it is hard |
|
When all you want to be is in a dream |
