Garden gates we’re talking over Blades of grass are upright daggers Pilot speaks, announces solemnly: “We’ve just lost another wing” Then speed, altitude, local time, weather conditions Oh, I think my night is on a collision course with dawn Oh, somebody push a button that will stop the world I’m getting off All I wanna do is pretend we’re islands in the tub Baby, you can even hold me under Maybe we could roll the windows down and turn it up Play all the songs that you’ve ever loved See, everyone’s exactly where yesterday we left them, dear All expressionlessly dining in artificial lighting still All turn to me; They must think I’m their new friend But I’m already elsewhere in my head Please, somebody pull a lever that will stop the world I’m getting off All I wanna do is pretend we’re islands in the tub Baby, you can even hold me under Maybe you could roll the windows down and turn it up Play all the songs that you’ve ever loved We can talk about everything you want when I’m short of words Fly a kite in the evening You better believe it This time we’re gonna live What’s the use of looking up? Heaven’s just a tomb for rockets All the garden gates we’re talking over Blades of grass are upright daggers What’s the use of looking up? Heaven’s just a tomb for rockets All the garden gates we’re talking over Blades of grass are upright daggers

Surely when we die we’ll go someplace But what about the dolphins? Does anyone there hear and understand cetacean prayers? I mean if not that’s a bummer ‘Cause I’m just toking, dozing No emotions And no garden hozing It’s nothing much thought-provoking Just a hollow moment A couple more of those and I’ll be done Smoking Na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na-na We were never quite at home in Paradise So if it’s any consolation This CGI some folks are working on is just unbelievable So turn your televisions on again ‘Cause you wouldn’t want to miss a thing Of these wonderful times that we’re living in I’m just toking, dozing No emotions And no garden hozing It’s nothing much thought-provoking It’s just a hollow moment A couple more of those and I’ll be done Smoking Na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na-na

Don’t look so woebegone There’s no world beyond the windows And when the windows are shut The day is done It’s done Just pull the covers up It’s where we go to sleep and choke our thoughts And keep still until dawn I’m living the dream And everything’s perfect Look mom, I’m happy It’s just like we rehearsed it No need to sigh ‘Cause planet Earth can’t fit inside A small blue half-moon bag Under your eyes And this will all be televised (All be televised) Be glad you got the part! Remember Someday we’ll be ejected from the world like a cartridge I think you need a paper bag I thought you got used to the wobble! But now you’re dizzy again Not again Again Oh no I’m eating my greens And everything’s worth it Tell dad I’m healthy Just like he predicted No need to sigh ‘Cause planet Earth can’t fit inside A small blue half-moon bag Under your eyes And this will all be televised (All be televised) Be glad you got the part! Remember Someday we’ll be ejected from the world like a cartridge

The sunlight stabs my eyes There’s birds perching on the powerlines I wonder if you woke in someone’s arms and if you’d ever consider mine The swaying shades of acacias in flower arrangements suggest That it’s time for me to be a man Or else with what regrets Would I be left to live forever The sky hangs undisturbed like a static pond Oh world, may you be preserved just as you are when I return The scent of evening air is cinnamon sweet here But it’s lost on my lungs breathing in The sunlight stabs my eyes (It stabs my eyes) There’s ferns running up the traffic signs outside (Outside) I tell the ether all of my desires and she says “Maybe another time”

Another amazing day to open shop I heard the Dow Jones ended double positive Today they’re back for more Me and my shares are on a bubble up and we’re never coming down An unbelievably booming economy, now! Come everyone gather round The end of the world is any time now Let us all join hands and say a prayer Heavenly Father, can you do that thing you do and lower interest rates? Some of the most impressive real estate is being developed near my house An inconceivably lucrative fortuity, wow! Come everyone gather round The end of the world is any time now So hold up both your hands It’s raining money Grab everything your back will let you carry
