lyrics

I’m on an elephant only diet, I don’t think I have any fun.
Hello; do you have any fun?
I don’t know, can you measure this some.

I find myself sitting in noise filled places
I smoke the same joke
I think the same drink
& there’s always something doing more,
I think I’m White, I think I’m Male, I think I’m Middle Class &
I think I’m over-ratted
With a constant need to be sedated

It was as useful as synchronised seagulls,
It was like knowing I had something coming in the mail,
It was like going to the bakery, so my bread never got stale, but then never leaving.
Humans we seldom value what we can’t name, if we give it a name will it make it worse?
If we give it a name, I might think I’m cursed;
I’m White, I’m Male, I’m Middle Class & I’m most definitely over-rated

Things have names because acts have authors,
Hedonism- Suck it up

I’m just a stone in your shoe, a fucking pest to you
I’m just a stone in your shoe, a fucking pest who are you? & what’s to do?
I’m just a stone in your shoe, who are you?

I’m tethered to too many people carrying apples, where my onions?
Tethered to too many people carrying apples, where my onions?
