life is just a bumpersticker,
on the side of a cereal box,
and it keeps messin’ with my head
if a scholar is an apple picker,
purple tree down by the docks,
why can’t orange and yellow make red?
concrete jungle, petrified penthouse,
whatcha gonna do today?
rooftop graveyard coliseum closed down,
what would your mother say?
chrystalline criss-cross,
wanna make your best toss?
i bet i can find a way.
suicidal cupcake, rabbit late for a date,
hoppin’ on the interstate, i don’t care anyway
the whole world is just shades of gray,
slowly starting to fade away,
and there’s nothing, that i can do for you.
and there’s nothing, that i can do for me.
and some time, someway, somewhere, somehow, we’ll all be free.
a boy found himself in a picture,
he could see by his bright brown eyes,
a cowboys t-shirt and a baseball cap,
completed his middle school disguise
newsprint alibi, homeless housefly,
long distance local call,
conservation carnival, freshwater barnacle,
a quiet day at the mall,
alone in a crowd, what’s goin’ down?
you watched me drown.
feelin’ okay, it’s a two-tear day, nothing to say,
i don’t care anyway
rollerskating on the rails of a rollercoaster,
is how she gets her kicks,
sittin around doin nothing all day,
now that’s what makes her sick.
monolith meltdown, monkey in a wedding gown, born with a flag in his hand,
pause button overplay, go ahead anyway,
a dove suffocatin in the sand,
bi-polar polar bear, standin’ in his underwear, don’t look like he’s gonna pay,
metamorphic metaphor, l-m-n-o-p-q-r,
never had a drink but i’m messed up anyway. |
