This is the trick, forget a terrible year
And we can break the laws until it gets weird
You might forget, forget the sound of a voice
But you should not forget, yeah don't forget the things that we laughed about.

You may find yourself in a shotgun shack
You may find yourself in a large automobile
You may find yourself in a beautiful house
With a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself: well, how did I get here?

I have made a big decision
I'm going to try to nullify my life
'Cause when the blood begins to flow
When it shoots up the dropper's neck
Then I'm closing in on dead

Don't you wonder sometimes about sound and vision?
Blue blue, electric blue, that's the colour of my room where I will live
Pale blines drawn all day, nothing to do nothing to say
I will sit right down, waiting for the gift of sound and vision

I'm rolling down the hill, snowballing, getting bigger
An explosion in the chamber, the hammer from the trigger
I seen him get stabbed, I watched the blood spill out
He had more cuts than my man, Chuck Chillout

And one day in New York City baby a girl fell from the sky
From the top of the burning apartment building 14 stories high
And when her spirit left her body how it split the sun
I know that she will live forever all goes on and on and on

That boy needs therapy
Lie down on the couch, what does that mean?
You're a nut! You're crazy in the coconut!
What does that mean? That boy needs therapy
I'm gonna kill you, that boy needs therapy

If the sun comes up and I still don't wanna stagger home
Then it's the memory of our betters that are keeping us on our feet
It comes apart the way it does in bad films
Except the part where the moral kicks in

The hospital asked should the body be cast before I say goodbye, my star in the sky
Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth, do you find it alright, my dragonfly?
Shall we look at the moon, my little loon, why do you cry?
Make the most of your life, while it is rife, while it is light
