FSo, you wanted
That's what you get for wGanting
You got it
That's what you get for gAmetting
Forgotten
You're gardening a rEotting bed
Of raygun-era icons
FSo
Let's start it
Let's start it
From the mGinute you felt it
You felt it like a prAmison
A panic, you felt it
Like that cEoffee scene
From Moscow on the Hudson
FSo
...Be honest
It's not as if you're hGappy about it
It's not as if you're Amanimatronic
It's not as if you cFouldn't
Cry out any time you wanted
OFlly olly oxen free
AGll the people you will never be
OFlly olly oxen free
OGlly olly olly olly
Olly olly olly olly
FFate
You call it
You color it
The cGolor you want it
You carpet it
That's Amawful convenient
You paint yourself a nEice white room
With stripes and matching curtains
FSo
You forfeit
You cannot build a rGiver across it
You cannot hold your Amown heart hostage
You do not have the strFength
To gag yourself in every closet
The wrFong place, wrong mind
Timing's always bad
You're such a sGad case
Misplaced renaissance
Inventor of a wAmorldwide
Heartbreak, taking it in stride
'Cause you're an Fexpert
Aren't you?
Aren't you just a dime a dozen?
MFurderous monosyllabic moron
With no sense of purpose
WGorking on your songs all night
To justify your worthlessness
To Amanyone who's watching
If they only saw your alter egos
PrFetty in the shop windows
Where you got auctioned hours ago
FOlly olly oxen free
GAll the people you will never be
FOlly olly oxen free
Golly olly olly olly
Higher than the king can
SFee no evil, hear no evil
CGapture me and throw the key
SFee no evil, hear no evil
CGapture me and throw the key away
Throw the key away
FSo
It's over
You're lying in a cGoffin of clutter
Your father and your sAmister, your drummer
Are sorting through your SEoft Cell tapes
And lifesaver collection, aFnd you wonder
You wonder if you coGuld've done better
You wonder if you shAmould've surrendered
Before you learned that
NFobody actually wants a fucking martyr
DFidn't you, didn't you, didn't
Didn't you see?
DGidn't you, didn't you, didn't
Didn't you see?
DFidn't you, didn't you, didn't
Didn't you see me?
DGidn't you, didn't you, didn't
Didn't you see me?
FOlly olly oxen free
GAll the people you will never be
FOlly olly oxen free
Golly olly olly olly
Higher than the king can
SFee no evil, hear no evil
CGapture me and throw the key
SFee no evil, hear no evil
CGapture me and throw the key away
ThFrow the key away
ThGrow the key away
