lyrics

All descendants have died out
the chalkboard and pupils stayed in the classroom
recess and lunchroom sardine cans
the ruler’s splinters soaked up all the sponges

And when the only thing that makes you stronger makes you weak
you pose as concrete
And grab a fine point marker
Open your data sheet and ctrl & del your memory

The beak of a songbird is dented
she belts out melodies fueled by adrenaline
the dew on grass blades, slip and sliding
a rainboot will trudge on like its freshly tarred blacktop

And when the only thing that makes you stronger makes you weak
you pose as concrete
And grab a fine point marker
Open your data sheet and ctrl & del your memory

I’d lose my head if not attached to my back
I’ll learn to dance and contort my spine to avoid your questions
I’ll burn in hell for what I just laughed at, I must have no heart
A reservation made, insecticide sprayed to kill the babies

A steeped brewed tea chokes with an orange leaf
your tongue in cheek can hide the fool’s gold
The bride to be, she has sweaty brows and two ice cold feet

The characters from a biased joke walked in a bar
Stop me if you have heard this one as not to kill the payoff
I woke up late and got there early
Whoever said shortcuts don’t pay, they must not have had the proper training

A steeped brewed tea chokes with an orange leaf
your tongue in cheek can hide the fool’s gold
The bride to be, she has sweaty brows and two ice cold feet
So take only needs, and don’t get hung up on human beings,
you can’t control what you can’t control
