|
Did it all get real, I guess it's real enough |
|
They got refrigerators full of blood |
|
Another century spent pointing guns |
|
At anything that moves |
|
Sometimes I worry that I've lost the plot |
|
My twitching muscles tease my flippent thoughts |
|
I never really dreamed of heaven much |
|
Until we put him in the ground |
|
But it's all I'm doing now |
|
Listening for patterns in the sound |
|
Of an endless static sea |
|
But once the satellite's deceased |
|
It blows like garbage through the streets |
|
Of the night sky to infinity |
|
But don't you weep (don't you weep for them) |
|
Don't you weep (don't you weep) |
|
There is nothing as lucky |
|
Honey, don't you weep (don't you weep for them) |
|
Don't you weep (don't you weep) |
|
There is nothing as lucky, as easy, or free |
|
Don't be a criminal in this police state |
|
You better shop and eat and procreate |
|
You got vacation days then you might escape |
|
To a condo on the coast |
|
I set my watch to the atomic clock |
|
I hear the crowd count down til the bomb gets dropped |
|
I always figured there'd be time enough |
|
I never let it get me down |
|
But I can't help it now |
|
Looking for faces in the clouds |
|
I got some friends I barely see |
|
But we're all planning to meet |
|
We'll lay in bags as dead as leaves |
|
All together for eternity |
|
But don't you weep (don't you weep for them) |
|
Don't you weep (don't you weep) |
|
There is no one as lucky |
|
Honey, don't you weep (don't you weep for them) |
|
Don't you weep (don't you weep) |
|
There is nothing as lucky, as easy, or free |
|
Or free, or free, or free |
|
There's nothing, there's nothing, there's nothing... |
