spent my summer waitin' for the fall
nothin' much to say when papa made his call
livin' on nightmares, vitamins, and song
committin' no prayers, just stringin' em along
killin' my time inventin' disease
problem in my gut and trouble in my knees
the blocks grow longer in the heat-covered days
i'm wastin' my means and losin' my ways
and it's not so sad
when you think about all the sufferin' and tears
in far-off lands they're fightin' off thirst and hunger for years
political, anti-social indoctrination of fear
well there's always bigger walls
to climb and miles to crawl
and it makes me feel so small
I give thanks for it all
once I wondered how tall I would grow
if I'd go to heaven or to hell below
now all I ever wonder is when
the good lord above will bring it to an end
around what sun my world did revolve
just another mystery I never would solve
so I fancied myself an angel that fell
my dirty little secret I never would tell
readin' my palms and writin' my tale
wanna say somethin' fore I have to set sail
the moral of the story on the last page turned:
Set your world on fire, you're gonna get burned
