lyrics

Don’t answer the telephone
Watch TV and drink alone
I am woe and woe is me
Glutton for your sympathy
Wasted sipping gin and juice
Fountain of eternal youth
Flashing forward

See myself in 30 years
Haven’t changed in 30 years
Tell me what is 30 more?
In 30 years I’ll close the door
On ever growing up at all
Peter Pan until I start
Falling forward

Cover me in pixie dust
Man I need a pick-me-up
Hit of weed or hair of dog
Anything but sober thoughts
Thoughts like, “what’s the point at all?’
Every day I learn to walk
Backward, forward

Olly Olly Oxen Free
No more playing Hide and Seek
I just wanna go inside
Lay back down and close my eyes
In my head I’m counting sheep
They’re numbered to infinity
Bleating four words

From their mouths,
“It’s All Right On”
Bury me at Forrest Lawn
Or if I make it HFC
They’ll probably make a star for me
A spot on In Memoriam
Or pay someone a million bucks
To write my foreword

Damn my dark and dingy soul
Been that way since I was born
Friends of mine were full of light
Up until the day they died
Hey but that’s just life I guess
Here one day and gone the next
I hope no one remembers me
I hope no one remembers me
