lyrics

I want to do the easy thing, but no one will let me.
I want to sell the way I sing, but then they would get me
And no one I know wants to be cross-eyed and naked
If you can’t enter in foolishly, at least you could fake it

I want to do the easy thing; it would only take my one I Ching
If you like the way I sing I think we should do it
I wanna be successful, yeah, and not so damn depressful, yeah
If you could lend a dressful, yeah, let’s go to it

I want to buy the world a drink, but I can’t afford it
If you liked the way I think, you should have adored it
Nobody comes this way without their abuses
I acquire them and get away with my nihilistic excuses
