Well the irony is that the irony isn't
The funniest part is it's none of my business
I only win to give a chance to be beaten
The happiest moments are the ones when I'm sleeping
And I, oh yes I
I 've been waiting all night
Just to say I wasn't right
I was completely correct
I
I wasn't wrong
I wasn't on
I wasn't off
I sung a song
It didn't mean what it said
You have to look deeper than that
Because I want to be you, yes you
Because it seems that you do what I want without even trying
Yeah
Well the irony is that the irony isn't
The funniest part is it's none of my business
I only win to give a chance to be beaten
My happiest moments are the ones when I'm sleeping

Carefully
As she unravels he
plans ahead for the
change of mind
Patiently
As he changes she
Is terrified by the
Electric gaze in his eyes
Nonchalantly
He grabs his coat and his tea
He looks down at her feet
As he says goodbye
It's not what he wanted
It's just that he knew that
There was no going back from something like this
So he got in his piece of shit car
And drove it as far as it'd take him
Just barely 500 miles
He looked back and smiled
Because the only life he'd ever known
He just left 500 miles behind
Don't get paranoid
No one's getting annoyed
At your stupid jokes except yourself
They're happy to have
Another head talking
Instead of sponge in the corner of the room
With a sailor's heart and businesser's body
In a college kid's home with friends that party
It gives me a fish's attention span
And I've got things that need me there
It's all really not fair but it is what it is
And that's how its gonna be
Yeah I guess I'm trying
But who's really trying
Aren't we all giving about ten percent
Because who wants to be
Mooched off of
Till there last penny's cent
It all kind of makes sense
I've got a bird's wings
Hidden underneath my skin
That's reptilian
So I can pull all the heat in
For my cold heart
I live in a dark cave
It makes me blind as a bat
But I stay behaved

Use your head, dont be dumb
I mean you still got your thumbs
Can't be that bad off
No, you're not that bad off
And I don't like to work
But I have to get paid
I guess I'll go in early
On the drive I think
I could use a vacation every now and again
But what if I could only bring one or two of my best friends
And what if that plane crashed and I'd never see the rest of you after that
Then I think right now is not that bad I mean im not inside a death trap am i
Use your head dont be dumb
You still got all your thumbs
Can't all be that bad off
No you're not that bad off
I will have to work for the rest of my life
Just to get by I guess thats fine
At least it'll occupy my wandering mind
I know that sometimes everything that you want seems like it is gone
But it doesn't matter because everything you've never even ever thought of
Is just one small arm reach away so stick out your hand and close your thumbs
Use your head dont be dumb
I mean you still got your thumbs

I've been trying for so long I dont understand the word comfortable
She's been trying for so long she's going to start her own waterfall
I've been losing our battles, so here comes the end of the war
I've been thinking Lately
That I've been thinking too much
So I'm going to call all my bros up to see if we can get this party going
We're gonna call all the chicks out to see if we can get lucky again
I don't know about all this, but then again
I've been thinking Lately
That I've been thinking too much
About you
