about
*i was mad at my dad, sorry
lyrics
my psychic visions have started again
psychotic villains are starting to win
extraterrestrials are starting
to take over the government
we are the cracks at the sidewalk's end
leftover fireworks on july the fifth
won't always do right or be right
but right now we'll do what we can
and if we feel a little out of breath
we'll dream ourselves another death
eyes wide open for whatever happens next...
i know my father would never give his okay
to a song thrown together this way
see we've a family tradition
demanding perfection and grace
so I've been biding too much of my time
so far ahead and still so far behind
standing there in line
just to get on someone else's ride
but no ones cheering anymore
and don't they love to lay the blame at my door
by god if they can do better
what the hell are they waiting for?
the choicest of my words are spent
and i'm not even sure what they meant
but if you play them all backward
you'll find that they sound like shit
my psychic visions are all starting again
psychotic villains are always going to win
extraterrestrials are starting to take over the government !
extraterrestrials
have already
taken over
the government!
psychotic villains are starting to win
extraterrestrials are starting
to take over the government
we are the cracks at the sidewalk's end
leftover fireworks on july the fifth
won't always do right or be right
but right now we'll do what we can
and if we feel a little out of breath
we'll dream ourselves another death
eyes wide open for whatever happens next...
i know my father would never give his okay
to a song thrown together this way
see we've a family tradition
demanding perfection and grace
so I've been biding too much of my time
so far ahead and still so far behind
standing there in line
just to get on someone else's ride
but no ones cheering anymore
and don't they love to lay the blame at my door
by god if they can do better
what the hell are they waiting for?
the choicest of my words are spent
and i'm not even sure what they meant
but if you play them all backward
you'll find that they sound like shit
my psychic visions are all starting again
psychotic villains are always going to win
extraterrestrials are starting to take over the government !
extraterrestrials
have already
taken over
the government!
