While we're on the subject, could we change the subject now?
I was knockin' on your ear's door, but you were always out
Lookin' towards the future, we were begging for the past, well
We know we'd had the good things, but those never seem to last
Oh, please just last
Everyone's unhappy
Everyone's ashamed, well we all just got caught lookin' at somebody else's page
Well nothing ever went quite exactly as we'd planned
Our ideas held no water but we used 'em like a dam
Oh and we carried it all so well
As if we'd got a new position
Oh and I'll laugh all the way to hell
Saying, "Yes, this is a fine promotion"
Oh, and I'll laugh all the way to hell
Of course everyone goes crazy over such and such and such
We'd made ourselves a pillar but we just used it as a crutch
We were certainly uncertain, at least I'm pretty sure I am
Well we didn't need the water but we just built that good goddamn!
Oh and I know this of myself
I assume as much for other people
Oh and I know this of myself
We've listened more to life's end gong
Than the sound of life's sweet bells
Was it ever worth it? Was there all that much to gain?
Well we knew we'd missed the boat and we'd already missed the plane
We didn't read the invite, we just danced at our own wake
All our favorites were a-playin' so we could shake, shake! Shake, shake, shake!
Tiny curtains opened, then we heard the tiny clap of little hands
A tiny man would tell a little joke and get a tiny laugh from all them folks
Sitting drifting round on bubbles then (Thinking it was us that carried them)
When we finally got it figured out that we had truly missed the boat
O and we carried it all so well
As if we'd got a new position
Oh and we owned all the tools ourselves
Without the skills to make a shelf with
Oh what useless tools ourselves
Finally!!! yes!
😊
