lyrics

i try not to pay much attention
to what other people all say
whenever you get what you want
with a trick you just give it away

all that you see is a number
nearer or farther from to one
the longer i spend to compare them
the more that I feel like I’m dumb

as the gleam in the eye of a blindfolded child
who gets paid by the inch while she looks like five miles
that I’d walk through with no shoes
across property lines til the end of time
do I look like i do what I’m supposed to do
i’m the ghost of a dude in business suit
on a hook in the dark at the end of a line
that I broke from a ghoul in a high priced room
with a baseball bat and a mop and a broom
in a boat on a lake in the light of the moon
