Chorus:
and there’s nothing you got to do except breathe
there’s nothing you got to do except stand up and leave
if you’re somewhere you don’t
wanna be don’t look at me what could I do for you?

shiny diamonds on your fingers only proves that you can cut glass
watch out you don’t ever punch your soul
if your charisma and futility don’t tie you up and leave you
you’ll be lucky if you come out lookin’ whole

Chorus

the harder you try to have a good time the harder it is to have it
I think it’d just be easiest to grab my gifts and leave
but you and I are total opposites they made us in a mirror
so your favorite thing becomes my worst pet peeve
"and who are you" he says to her
she says "I’m not anybody"
he says "that’s right"
I say "both of you are wrong"
so put all your eggs inside a basket and then throw em off a bridge
cuz you're just gonna break up anyway
it just wont take you as long
and he is always getting tense about the progress of his project
he cant see that’s the reason why he lost her
but I wish the women of the world would realize that they are in charge
they’ve always been it’s just that they exist a little softer

Chorus

the older generations just get heart attacks and grey
while the youth bounce off the table but they got nothing to say
so would you really call this progress all this access to excess
don’t ask me my opinion if you don’t care what I say
cuz it’s my nature which allows me to bitch and moan like a master
but the faster we talk the slower we think
and my eyes are always blinkin’ so I guess I must be thinkin’
about something somewhere somehow
maybe that’s why I don’t sink
but I’m down in the water give me money and your daughter
I'll be happier just knowin’ all I do don’t go to waste
so give my back my best opinions and give me someone else’s jokes
and I’ll try hard not to choke on them should I not like the taste
and all those god damn years in school left me stiff and stuck from all that sitting
I swear those fuckin’ chairs were made of boredom age and rules
so I put my head down on the desk to give my eyes a little rest
and when I woke up was already out of school

Chorus

your mind you say it rambles and your money seems to gamble by itself
without your blessing while you just hope for the best
but sometimes you have to cheat and lie and steal to protect yourself
from those who have never heard the phrase "give it a rest"
and the tallest man in the world is standing on top of his wallet
he reaches in and pulls out his green frog skin innocence
and if you spell love backwards you end up with the word evol
and there's no such thing as coincidence.

Chorus
