lyrics

If I could only move you like the movies you wouldn't spend time latching on
Maybe then I would plaster a fresh collection of voodoo paintings on the wall

Send forth your best of wishes, I could use them to pay you back any time I want
Maybe then I would gather a set of new rules to rig elections of my own kind

You traded rags for riches, petty wisdom
You're living off what your parents gave
You pray for steady wages and celebrations
A clear incentive to run around

You know these days are precious
They are means to a better end if you read between
Then why do days feel wasted and never rested?
I guess we'll settle for good company
