Lyrics

I was running down the stairs on the way to the train station but I knew it was gonna be late. That’s o.k, that’ll gimme some time…to smoke a joint. Yeah! I made it down the stairs and then opened the door like so many times before and what to my bed-sore eyes did I see the world as it was in my dream last night. Chorus: I could see thru the lines and the spaces in between the bullshit. That squeezes thru the seams of our hum-drum 9-5 day. Make a dollar, go to work, I’d rather be floating on the waves. Of the sea, of the sea or shakin’ like a leaf on a tree. Horns blow, cocks crow and everywhere you seem to go the grass is blue, the sky is green and every time I look at you I wanna scream, “FUCK YOU!! GO AWAY!! I WANNA HAVE SOME PEACE TODAY!!” Anyway, yesterday I went away and came back to warn y’all about the alien attack They’re coming soon they shot the moon from the sky. Now I’ll go to bed and get some shut-eye. Chorus: Why don’t you shut that hole under your nose? I need to pass out ‘cuz I drank WAY too much tequila. ‘Cuz if I wake up tomorrow in the same condition, I’ll grab my shotgun and kill all the politicians (stop strumming) ….and do it with a hard-on. Work, produce, consume, buy, sell and trade. That doesn’t turn me on, I’d rather go to the beach. And breeze thru the day relaxing in the shade of a tree. Turn off your TV, there’s nothing much to see except some douche-bag selling you some shit. Chorus: Let me tell ya niggaz, it’s fun when your head’s in the clouds. You can kick off yer shoes and have a little fun for a change. And laugh until you choke all the way thru the day, don’t worry if your eyes are blind all the time from the tears of joy you cry, I say, I say, “We’re all the same deep down in side.” One for one they’re all in it for the money and the women and the drugs and the power to be the one to say what’s what and who stays. You can laugh with me ‘cuz ya’know it’s all a joke just as long as ya’got some good shit to smoke.
