Wanna build me a fort thing She can't fly with that broken wing She might try but she just don't know Ba da da ba ba da ba Wanna get a lobotomy I wanna help the economy A fast task 'cause my memory's slow Ba da da ba ba da ba Don't try to explain what you'll never know Don't try to complain, just let it go Acute paranoia really dragging me down Whoa oh oh Rolling hills of ecstasy Study pills right next to me Cheap thrills, I love them so Ba da da ba ba da ba Did you lose your love for me? Did we run out of kerosene? Don't answer 'cause I already know Ba da da ba ba da ba What did you say? I don't know Say it to my face, not my fucking phone Acute paranoia really dragging me down Whoa oh oh

I walk in the department store 'Cause I need, I need a new TV My old records don't play no more So I seed, I seed a free mp3 I used to love the radio When it played, it played the songs I know Now I love my surround stereo It's really cool ya know, ya know ya know ya know

Flatheads 03:49
Flatten out my head to keep it from rolling 'round Once they thought so too, 1492 Flatten out my head to keep it from rolling 'round Once they thought so too, 1492 But I don't know where I'm going I only know where I've been When the going gets tough, the tough get going Knowing that the road will provide, road will provide When the going gets tough, the tough get going Knowing that the road will provide, road will provide But I don't know where I'm going I only know where I've been Flatten out my head to keep it from rolling 'round Flatten out the truth, red and black and blue Flatten out my head to keep it from rolling 'round Flatten out the truth, red and black and blue But I don't know where I'm going I only know where I've been Flatten out my head to keep it from rolling 'round Once they thought so too, 1492 Flatten out my head to keep it from rolling 'round Once they thought so too, 1492 But I don't know where I'm going I only know where I've been

Hockey 04:31
Take a look out there, those crusty skies A crispy breeze, American pie Did I remember? Or did you forget? Let me clear my throat I'm sailing, sailing on a staleboat Staleboat, staleboat Staleboat, staleboat Do you believe, do you believe, do you believe perception? Or just undetection? I'm off my boat Everybody's an ocean, Larries in motion Let me clear my throat I'm sailing on a staleboat Staleboat, staleboat Staleboat, yes I'm sailing on a staleboat Staleboat, staleboat Staleboat, yes I'm sailing on a staleboat

Winnebago 03:49
Trying to take a picture When you've got a story to tell Nice try reading scripture But you're dragging all of us to hell At night I lie awake but I refuse I refuse to take my pills I'm flying into San Francisco I'm buying what they're trying to sell I miss those hippie discos Can I ring their tie-dyed bells? Hurry up and wait to cross that Golden Gate Bridge 'Cause I'm worried worried worried worried Worried that I'm feeling alone Find me a new Ramona Say that she's gotta be real Away with Desdemona Oh I gotta find a woman to steal I came by flight to taste that eastern spice And get my foreign thrills Christopher Columbus and a New World chick Some call him a modern hero But he probably gave her syphilis In 1493, he took her virginity So I'll buy me a Winnebago to drive off the edge of the world I'll call her my Santa Maria I will love no other girl I'll conquer those concrete seas I'll take anything I please The misty mountain breeze and alpine trees That we lost so long ago
