| When your low serotonin’s got you brittle and glitchy
|
| And your friend from the null set isn’t calling you back yet
|
| And your opening bombs and you’re a few beats up ahead of the laugh track
|
| How you gonna talk about who’s toxic or not?
|
| You gonna pick thru the pills? |
| You gonna call in the cops?
|
| The comedian claimed that he forgot all his props
|
| And the jokes don’t really work well without them
|
| We were sleeping on the shuttle on the way to the club
|
| And the holy perception and the most precious blood
|
| It flooded the ruts and it soaked the upholstery
|
| The driver made us walk the remainder
|
| She came around the corner with a diplomat’s shake
|
| And some kind of crystal container
|
| Yeah, mutually assured destruction is oftentimes a no brainer
|
| The drifters in the kitchen
|
| Were thrashing thru the passion
|
| Boys, let’s try to keep it on the carpet
|
| You wouldn’t be so impressed with the sunrise
|
| If it wasn’t for the darkness
|
| You did good kid
|
| You did good kid
|
| But you settled for the first girl that said you were sweet
|
| You bought a little house up on Sycamore Street
|
| You hung around the money until they cut you a piece
|
| You did good kid. |
| You did good kid
|
| But the things they didn’t tell you when you went off to work
|
| How does it feel? |
| Where does it hurt?
|
| You can’t see the wires when they’re under his shirt
|
| But they’re taking down every single detail
|
| He came into the club with the commemorative plates
|
| A depiction of The Slaughter at Shiloh
|
| The light in his eyes was diminished
|
| But they announced his arrival
|
| Once the assistant hitched us into the harness
|
| The wolves all started acting kinda sheepish
|
| Woke up in a bed with a spray painted mattress
|
| Dripping wet with the emotional weakness
|
| And every single moment gets abandoned and emptied
|
| Every single speaker gets blown
|
| And now you wanna go home
|
| Oh dude. |
| They made a movie starring you
|
| Oh man. |
| This wasn’t what you planned
|
| You fold your hands and you laugh at the jokes
|
| You did good kid. |
| You did good kid
|
| Oaks and acorns. |
| Acorns and oaks
|
| You did good kid. |
| You did good kid
|
| Searching out another mouth in the smoke
|
| You did good kid. |
| You did good kid
|
| You did good kid |
