Storms pounding out a new beat I trade my old shoes for new feet I don't like the ones I've got the fabrics wearing through and it's wearing me out. You're wearing me down.
Watching old baseball games and low budget telethons ain't like watching you yourself, when you yourself is on. Got time to wander, to waste and to wind, but when it comes to you it seems that I just can't find the time.
So watch your head and watch the ground, it's a silly time to learn to swim when you start to drown.
If I gave you my number, would things still be the same, if I saved you from drowning, promise me you'll never go away, oh, promise me you'll always stay.
Closed down the last local zoo, I'm gonna win the endless war over who kills the last koala bear, and who in death will love me more and I.
He grabs me by the hands, drags me to the shore he says "maybe you don't love me, but you'll grow to love me even more and I, I'm not surprised"
