Lyrics

[00:25.779] Try not to think so much about
[00:30.759] The truly staggering amount
[00:40.600] Of oil that it takes to make a record
[00:50.160] All the shipping, the vinyl,
[00:52.760] The cellophane lining
[00:55.580] The high gloss
[00:58.880] The tape and the gear
[01:03.0]
[01:06.650] Try not to become too consumed
[01:11.700] With what’s a criminal volume
[01:20.860] Of oil that it takes to paint a portrait
[01:31.140] The acrylic, the varnish
[01:33.560] Aluminum tubes filled with latex
[01:39.840] The solvents and dye
[01:43.390]
[01:46.729] Let's just call this what it is
[01:57.120] The jealous side of mankind’s death wish
[02:04.970] When it’s my time to go
[02:12.0] Gonna leave behind things that
[02:15.570] Won’t decompose
[02:19.140]
[02:23.429] Try not to dwell so much upon
[02:28.450] How it won’t be so very long from
[02:37.219] From now that they laugh at us for selling
[02:47.339] A bunch of 15 year olds made from
[02:50.779] Dinosaur bones singing “oh yeah”
[02:56.910] Again and again
[03:00.959] Right up to the end
[03:04.940] Let‘s just call this what it is
[03:13.549] The jealous side of mankind’s death wish
[03:21.920] When it’s my time to go
[03:28.450] Gonna leave behind things that
[03:32.228] Won’t decompose
[03:35.459]
[03:39.350] I’ll just call this what it is
[03:49.370] My vanity gone wild with my crisis
[03:57.459] One day this all will
[04:03.339] Now sure hope they make something
[04:07.539] Useful out of me.
