lyrics

Man, you ain’t shit
Unless you take the money honey and have fun with it
And time, there’s a time to cry
But it ain’t now and this ain’t the reason why
You can have a conversation
About predestination
Just meet at the station or the finish line

Write it down in a letter
Give the letter to the mailman
Push the mailman in the pool
Tell the ones you love you love them
Take a bite out of an onion
Tarot cards in the afternoon

I bet, it’ll be alright
And if it’s not I’m not putting up a fight
You don’t don’t don’t need to be upset
They got theirs, I got mine, you’ll get yours yet
I’m sure there’s some therapy
A reverse ego conspiracy
That’ll put me heavenly in debt

The more serious you take it
The more fun it is to break it
Cutting holes in your parachute
You’re acting like you meant it
You don’t drink beer you rent it
Falling off the edge of the moon
