Road To Joy
The sun came up with no conclusionsFlowers sleeping in their beds.The city's cemetery's hummingI'm wide awake it's morning.I have my drugs, I have my womanThey keep away my lonelinessMy parents they have their religionBut sleep in separate houses.
I read the body count out of the paperAnd now it's written all over my face.No one ever plans to sleep out in the gutter,Sometimes that's just the most comfortable place.
So, I'm drinking breathing, writing singingEvery day I'm on the clock.My mind races with all my longingsBut can't keep up with what I've got.So I hope I don't sound too ungrateful,What history gave modern menA telephone to talk to strangersMachine guns and a camera lens.
So, when you're asked to fight a war that's over nothingIt's best to join the side that's gonna win.And no one's sure how all of this got started,But we're gonna make 'em god damn certain how it's gonna end.Oh yeah we will, oh yeah we will!
Well I could have been a famous singer,If I had someone else's voice.But failure's always sounded betterLet's fuck it up boys, make some noise!
The sun came up with no conclusionsFlowers sleeping in their beds.The city's cemetery's hummingI'm wide awake it's morning.
