Well I took off running at the greatest speed
|
I didn't bother looking to either side of me
|
Oh, I did not see, I just did not see what was really going on
|
The trees had stopped and the skyline rose
|
Exchanging comfort for more fashionable clothes
|
I'd left the hills at this point in time
|
To run on treadmills in a perfect line
|
Salad days add up to daily shit
|
Sparking imagination till the sparks did quit
|
And if this is fun why'm I so bored with it?
|
Well I'll probably never know
|
|

|
When we rolled over, how our masters clapped
|
It felt so good we wanted more of that
|
But when the program failed they defensively laughed
|
Sayin' "We did things just how you asked,
|
Don't try taking us to task.
|
You didn't buy a face, nope just a mask,
|
So HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!"
|
|
I drew a blank, we put it in a frame
|
Wait, what? You're winning?
|
You didn't say this was a game
|
Well I guess I just have to play and play till I'm out of cash
|
|
Before I could spit it out
|
I guess the words had burnt my mouth, what can I say?
|
Worst of all I laid it down
|
So you could take it out of context anyway
|
|
We said all along we deserved every bit
|
And mostly we knew that the supply would quit
|
But we got going and going and just went with it till everybody lost their minds
|
Directly behind being ahead of the time
|
But don't worry, you'll fall right in line
|
Yup, everythings just fine, fine, fine
|
No one's getting blamed this time
|
|
Blameless, oh blameless, can we find a way to blame our way out?
|
Well I post dated the eulogy for every blameless body now
|
We are blamelessly teething on much more than we need now, now now
|
Blameless teething
|
Well we're all getting blamed 'cause everyone knew
|
That's right.
|
Everybody knew.
