| You wanted
|
| That’s what you get for wanting
|
| You got it
|
| That’s what you get for getting
|
| Forgotten
|
| You’re gardening a rotting bed
|
| Of ray-gun era icons
|
| So
|
| Let’s start it
|
| Let’s start it
|
| From the minute you felt it
|
| You felt it like a prison
|
| A panic, you felt it
|
| Like that coffee scene
|
| From Moscow on the Hudson
|
| So
|
| Be honest
|
| It’s not as if you’re happy about it
|
| It’s not as if you’re animatronic
|
| It’s not as if you couldn’t
|
| Cry out any time you wanted
|
| Olly olly oxen free
|
| All the people you will never be
|
| Olly olly oxen free
|
| Olly olly olly olly
|
| Olly olly olly olly
|
| Fate
|
| You call it
|
| You color it
|
| The color you want it
|
| You carpet it
|
| That’s awful convenient
|
| You paint yourself a nice white room
|
| With stripes and matching curtains
|
| So
|
| You forfeit
|
| You cannot build a river across it
|
| You cannot hold your own heart hostage
|
| You do not have the strength
|
| To gag yourself in every closet
|
| The wrong place, wrong mind
|
| Timing’s always bad
|
| You’re such a sad case
|
| Misplaced renaissance
|
| Inventor of a worldwide
|
| Heartbreak, taking it in stride
|
| 'Cause you’re an expert
|
| Aren’t you?
|
| Aren’t you just a dime a dozen?
|
| Murderous monosyllabic moron
|
| With no sense of purpose
|
| Working on your songs all night
|
| To justify your worthlessness
|
| To anyone who’s watching
|
| If they only saw your alter egos
|
| Pretty in the shop windows
|
| Where you got auctioned hours ago
|
| Olly olly oxen free
|
| All the people you will never be
|
| Olly olly oxen free
|
| Olly olly olly olly
|
| Higher than the king can
|
| See no evil, hear no evil
|
| Capture me and throw the key
|
| See no evil, hear no evil
|
| Capture me and throw the key away
|
| Throw the key away
|
| So
|
| It’s over
|
| You’re lying in a coffin of clutter
|
| Your father and your sister, your drummer
|
| Are sorting through your tapes
|
| And lifesaver collection, and you wonder
|
| You wonder if you could’ve done better
|
| You wonder if you should’ve surrendered
|
| Before you learned that
|
| Nobody actually wants a fucking martyr
|
| Didn’t you, didn’t you, didn’t
|
| Didn’t you see?
|
| Didn’t you, didn’t you, didn’t
|
| Didn’t you see?
|
| Didn’t you, didn’t you, didn’t
|
| Didn’t you see me?
|
| Didn’t you, didn’t you, didn’t
|
| Didn’t you see me?
|
| Olly olly oxen free
|
| All the people you will never be
|
| Olly olly oxen free
|
| Olly olly olly olly
|
| Higher than the king can
|
| See no evil, hear no evil
|
| Capture me and throw the key
|
| See no evil, hear no evil
|
| Capture me and throw the key away
|
| Throw the key away
|
| Throw the key away |
