lyrics

Big John was wrong the universe is gone, no karma never got no one.
Relax and lie, be productive as a kind, the Earth’s twin is yet to be found.
Yesterday hopes about future days are stranger that the facts of nowadays.
I dream when I read, I read while I sleep. I left my car go down to the deep.

I’m seasick, I won’t cross the narrow sea, and I’ll stay with my family.
I’m road sick, I can’t make an hour drive, and I’ll stay under my shallow tree.
I can’t stand a flight those pills don’t work on me, I’ll watch a shaky-taped movie.
The people make me sick, those people frightened me but I won’t bend my knee.

A party was thrown where I was all alone, the cards were sent but no one showed up.
Big lies and lores, yes I live by the shore ‘cause there’s no mountain to climb no more.
Yesterday’s hopes about future days are stranger than the facts of nowadays.
I dream when I read, I read while I sleep. I left my car go down to the deep.
