If you wanna raise a barn, you don't need to father it
If you wanna shoot a horse, you don't need to kill it
If you wanna buy some time, you don't need to purchase it
Life spreads best during winter when snow covers all the rifts
That springtime birthing story's a modern day science myth
If you wanna shoot a picture, you don't need to kill it
If you wanna buy the farm, you won't need equipment
Rivers of greed run east of our modest, honest state
Did you go on the faith walk, like a banquet on a love-sized plate?
If you wanna shoot a horse, you don't need to break it
If you wanna raise some hell, it helps if you're dedicated
Cars pass through neighboorhoods that stink of moral decay
I got on a plane right out of there, my gold cross on display

In a user-friendly application, you don't have to do a thing
You just stand there waitin' for them to paint the hood of your lid
And maybe on your way back I could have you pick up a meal
We could have a fast food shake in the middle of a golden field
Na na na na, I don't have a single desire
Na na na na, that makes me fool-proof
Na na na na, I'm gonna age well
Na na na na, I'm so resigned
In a suit that's made for judgment and reason, you look well fit
I have to patch my roof so the 'copter doesn't kick up shit
On your way to the courthouse, could you maybe make me a score?
Passion fades 'cause joy gets boring and I can't see you anymore
Na na na na, I didn't put out a fire
Na na na na, that makes me burnt

I let my doctor decide what to do with my body
I used to run outside, now it is your hobby
I used to have a bride, now she is with Bobby

Nature Walk

We walked over the mountain
We set for the dynamite
We drove through the roadway
We kept the pictures of the mountain
Then you turned to Alice
Told her 'bout your nature
Said it wasn't natural pointed to the highway
Said that wasn't nature
It was made by humans
Then she went and kissed you
Isn't she an animal?
We walked towards the spaceship
We left, we left this planet
We live, we live in the solar system now
Then you turned to Alice
Told her 'bout our statues
Marble can't describe it
Space destroys your headache
You thought of the pigeons
They thought of some breadcrumbs
Everybody got drunk – there were no distinctions

You were designed to be loved by a large group of followers
who will follow you to their graves
You can repay their devotion by meeting their demands
for nourishment, for nourishment
You can pick up your plate that you threw at the trash can
and push aside the dogs that are licking up the crumbs
and dust those crumbs into your palms
and deliver those crumbs to the ones that love you
and meet their demands for nourishment
and meet their demands for nourishment
You don't need to ask someone for directions
You have found our northern sun,
the one that shows connections
You are going to grow at will
Your thoughts will produce food
I don't know why I lost my faith in you
You are the only one I love, through and through
I'll give up the illusion of time for you

Video of the Subway

I'm wearing my bright orange shield tonight
I feel awake
VHS grain on the subway
You know it's tape
Our concept of time
Morning classes
Headphone sounds
There is no hype
Only sound effects
Under the ground

Down where the farmland meets the city
Everybody's waitin' for things to get pretty
People in the fields are makin' these bells
That chime all night if you hit 'em well
and I don't want that to change
and I don't want that to change
Down where the city meets a lake
The kids swim all day 'cause life is cake
The school is closed 'cause people hate lies
So the kids swim around and imagine new skies
and I don't want that to change
and I don't want that to change
Down where the lake place meets the world
The financial district is appropriately gray
The map it was built from was never unfurled
And the colors inside just stayed that way
and I don't want that to change
and I don't want that to change
Down where the world meets the personal soul
People keeps secret from the young and the old
They write some of them down, and some of them they don't
And some of them they'll tell and some of them they won't
and I don't want that to change
and I don't want that to change
Down where the soul meets eternity
There's a boy and a hammer and a pathetic tree
You try to tell me you don't wanna chop it down
You try to act like you don't like choppin' sounds
and like you don't want that to change
and like you don't want that to change

When the caterpillar you put in your mouth turns into a butterfly
I hope it snacks fulfilled on the cookie you've also been holding in there for it
Yet somehow you still find the talk to read law books out at me
And restrain and put in a car my body to take it away to a jail
Hey do you like the soundtracks when you watch the movie?
Well I've got a score that'll make your film go fast
When we meet at the bottom of the gutter I'll destroy your ladder back up to the sidewalk
That's what you say to refuse my offer and I receive that skeptically
Why do you bother when you won't call yourself a success later?
Don't not now nor never
Why do you bother when you won't call yourself a success later?
Don't not now nor never
You would call me a troublemaker for pointing out the color of the sky that wraps your body
You call it an office or his uniform that you wear to modify the discontinuation of order
Yet somehow I fancy you a flesh man when at home and in a robe, does that go crazy?
I think it keeps it in without imagination while me and my compatriots free lightning from its bird cage
The bolts of old gods that have beards that tickled my sleeping neck at a day job
Just unlock these keychains that hold society within the fences of a slaughterhouse that you call inevitable age
We have the magic fingers attached to bodies that will destroy the embryos of destruction
Why do you bother when you won't call yourself a success later?
Don't not now nor never
Why do you bother when you won't call yourself a success later?
Don't not now nor never

David, it's packed
The sermon you'll deliver will make your children shiver when the door breaks
But the air that blows through
Let's just say that you could sell it either way but you might end up letting them decide
That's not a liquid
You're not skating
That's not the ground
What've you made happen?
David, it's real
The church you bought is the church I sought for a long time
But we can still hang
Let's meet up at the European shop that only sells collectibles
That's not a prison
You're not spinning
That's not a highway
Where'd you get that?
But here's an empty field
Fill it up with actors and a camera and some dialogue
You might have something there
A series of written actions becoming experience as it's videotaped

ANYONE INTERESTED IN A TV SHOW ABOUT TWO RIVAL HAIRDRESSERS WHO BOND OVER THEIR SHARED FEAR OF THE VIRGIN GALACTIC ENTERPRISE?
I ALWAYS PICTURED THE GLASS HOUSE YOU CAN'T THROW STONES FROM AS SITTING ATOP A TALL GRASSY HILL AND CONSTANTLY FILLED WITH GOLDEN SUNLIGHT
I'M REALLY PROUD OF EVERYONE FOR STICKING TO THEIR GOALS
YESTERDAY THE PARTY GOT SO OUT OF CONTROL THAT I HAD TO HIDE IN THE SHOWER AND CRY
IN THE FUTURE, POLITICS WILL BE JUST ANOTHER COPYRIGHTED COMMODITY THAT PEOPLE ARE DOWNLOADING WILLY-NILLY FROM PEER-TO-PEER NETWORKS
HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW WHO LISTENED TO JAZZ AND HAD THEIR LIVES TURN OUT THE WAY THEY PLANNED?
QUIT THE INTERNET AND SUBSCRIBE TO MY POPCORN POEM SERVICE
MY YEAR CODE WOULD BE 1897 IF I LIVED IN 1897 AND CHOSE THE 1897 YEAR SERVICE-RATE
I HAVE A CROSS-PRINCIPLED TEXT OF INTER-MORAL VALUES THAT'LL ENABLE ME TO RUN ON VARIOUS PLATFORMS OF THE COURSE OF MULTIPLE GENERATIONS
AFTER MONTHS OF CONTEMPLATION DEEP IN NATURE, I WILL NO LONGER ASSUME THAT EVERYONE I MEET IS SANE
YELLED AT A PEDESTRIAN, "DO YOU LIVE HERE OR WHAT?"
THE REPLY HEARD AS WE DROVE AWAY, "NO, WHY, DO I LOOK LIKE I DO?"
THE THING THAT PLATO GOT WRONG IS THAT SHADOWS ARE AWESOME
I'M NOT GONNA DATE YOUR SISTER JUST BECAUSE SHE HAS HAIR O' THE COLOR OF DIAMONDS
I'M NOT GONNA DATE YOUR SISTER JUST BECAUSE SHE HAS HAIR O' THE COLOR OF DIAMONDS
I'M NOT GONNA DATE YOUR SISTER JUST BECAUSE SHE HAS HAIR O' THE COLOR OF DIAMONDS
I'M NOT GONNA DATE YOUR SISTER JUST BECAUSE SHE HAS HAIR O' THE COLOR OF DIAMONDS
