When you drive a nail through all that's good, the carpenter becomes the wood. |
|
If my concentration sounds like wreckage, it's 'cause |
|
I got a new feeling every thirty seconds. |
|
We put a monkey up in space and |
|
I know exactly how he felt. |
|
Looking at the latticework of stars, missing his brothers back home. |
|
Too much for a postcard. |
|
Mercy, have we gone too far? |
|
Who put all these criminals in charge? |
|
Did they win, or just hold all the cards? |
|
I'm leaving my place in |
|
LA, I'm gonna live in my car. |
|
Surgery girls, from the |
|
USO. Flown farm fresh, pure as snow. |
|
Hand me that flask. |
|
I just can't take it. |
|
She had the eyes of my mom but she was turning me on. |
|
Now I'm fading. |
|
I got duct tape all around my heart. |
|
I got a satellite dish to julienne my mind. |
|
Two-hundred channels, nothing's on but those network news can make your eyes see blonde. |
|
Mercy, have we lost our way? |
|
Did we come down the ladder from the apes? |
|
Oh, those lonely apes. |
|
Will the beard of the prophet be assuaged? |
|
I was putting my shit in the car when the copters came. |
|
They put a monkey in the white house and his uncle in the movies. |
|
Now the real monkey wants a re-count. |
|
He just couldn't believe they were his own family with those values. |
|
Mercy, pick up your guitar. |
|
We'll need a lot of heroes for this war. |
|
Pick up your guitar. "Will the last band please bring the flag?" 'cause no one's rocking the boat and some kids here said they wanna dance. |
