Always trying to tell what's wrong from what is right Always trying to find your way out in the light The way you're living ain't just working like it should Your phoney smiles won't take you anywhere good Doesn't matter what you say 'cause in the end You're going straight down You're going straight down Oh, oh, oh, down, down In the end, you're going straight down Always talking shit behind somebody's back You're gonna end up on the wrong end of the track You never miss a chance to get on someone's nerves You wanna be someone, you're gonna get what you deserve Doesn't matter what you say 'cause in the end You're going straight down You're going straight down Oh, oh, oh, down, down In the end, you're going straight down Straight down Oh, you're going straight down Oh, oh, oh, down, down In the end, you're going straight down All right now

You know I find it hard to sleep when I'm sleeping by myself And now I'm lying in the spare room Thinking I should be somewhere else 'Cause you know when we've been drinking We can sabotage ourselves Like smashing up the kitchen No, there's nothing that seems to help And I don't want to wake you up Tell you that I'm leaving town I already packed my stuff Can't go back now But the way you look brings me straight back down I don't want to wake you up right now I was ready to go, ready to go I don't wanna wake you up right now I was ready to go, ready to go I don't wanna wake you up right now You're breaking out the windows While I was tearing down the doors And now I'm picking up the ashtray That you threw against the wall 'Cause we take and we take just a little more I have no idea what we're fighting for Now I'm standing right here outside your door Now I know, now I know And I don't want to wake you up Tell you that I'm leaving town I already packed my stuff Can't go back now But the way you look brings me straight back down I don't wanna wake you up right now I was ready to go, ready to go I don't wanna wake you up right now I was ready to go, ready to go I don't wanna wake you up 'Cause I can't live with you, I can't live without you You feel like home, you feel like home Can't live with you, I can't live without you You feel like home, you feel like home And I don't want to wake you up Tell you that I'm leaving town I already packed my stuff Can't go back now But the way you look brings me straight back down I don't wanna wake you up right now I was ready to go, ready to go I don't wanna wake you up right now (Can't live with you, I can't live without you) I was ready to go, ready to go I don't wanna wake you up right now (Can't live with you, I can't live without you) I was ready to go, ready to go I don't wanna wake you up right now

Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in. Lobsterbacks attack the town again Wrap all my things in aluminum Beams of darkness streak across the sky Pink rays from the ancient satellite Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me The power of the Holy Ghost Shadow of the New Praetorian Tipping Cows in fields Elysian Saturnalia for all you have The seven habits of the highly infected calf Swan diving off the tongues of crippled giants International Business Machine Choking on bits of barley bread crumbs Oh, this burning beard, I have come undone It's just as I've feared. I have, I have come undone Bugger dumb the last of academe Okkam's razor makes the cutting clean Shaven like a banker, lilac vegetal Break the glass ceiling and the golden parachute on down The power of the Holy Ghost comes to town Shadow of the New Praetorian Tipping cows in fields Elysian Saturnalia for all you have The seven habits of the highly infected calf

I used to see the night so anxious But now I know The only thing it ever taught me was a grand illusion That comes and goes The city blanketed in snow What if we die, no end and no conclusion? How could you smile, just walk away? Well, I don't know I don't know I met you at the railroad station Now years ago And something happened on the night I last drank with you In the neon glow Now I don't see you anymore The Midwestern sky is gray and cold The sun never shines but that's alright And I couldn't find the letters that you wrote me What did you write, where'd you go? Well, I don't know Take a little time, gonna roll the dice Taken for a ride, any normal life will do too Find another way, try to break the ice Every day and night the banana peels were true, true
