lyrics

Where were you in the wild?
It isn't Tabasco because it isn't in you
Hello patriotic patrons made of neutrons and glue
Are you a product of your parents or a product of your past?
Who has licensed you to carry your own mass?
It isn't the Sasquatch with the comb over smug
Are you the type to sweep it under the rug
Who's entitled to this backstage access
Which bills have been past since we've paid our taxes?
You can have your rice dream in your ignorant igloo
I'll be sure not to bother you

What a silly life to have lead

If you want to wear those circus T-shirts and watch sequenced scenesters that's alright by me
If you swing a baseball bat at the bats in the attic I'll go out for a tea
If you want to cut your wages and cut your losses I'll go out and cut my hair
If you want to reorganize your words on the computer screen I'll see you next year

What a silly life to have lead

I'll swing the hatchet at those shrubs that cause havoc
I'll never know that this day would've come or if it existed
If I knew I'd stumble upon you I'd at least bring some balloons
I'd try to see the colors that I never knew
I'd take on this habitat and find loose-leaf to draw
I'd bury my seedlings and carry my body parts tall
To have to have and not give back

I have enough friendship bracelets anyway
