(Discussing
the constitutionality of our monetary system.)
I'm
the kind of soul that likes to dream a lot, lose myself staring at my
money. Is it such a complicated reality? Why is everybody so
serious, acting so damn mysterious? Got that glazed look in their
their eyes and their finger up their nose, they can't even have a
good time. Seems like everybody's got a price, I wonder how they
sleep at night when the truth comes second.
I
had the life of ordinary, I spat it out. Now my condition's kind of
scary. So here's my confession. I can fly, I can poop on your
shoulder. Yup, I got money. Thank you, thank you very, very much.
I
don't know what's right and what's real anymore, and I don't know how
I'm meant to feel anymore. When do you think it will all become
clear? I'm not being taken over by the fear. Money, get away. Get
a good job with more pay and you're okay? Money, it's a gas, grab
that cash with both hands and make a stash.
Forget
about guns and forget ammunition because I'm unscrewing everyone all
on my own little mission. Now I'm not a saint, so there. There's a
fire starting in my heart reaching a fever pitch, it's bringing me
out of the dark. Finally I can see it crystal clear. Go ahead and
sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare. See how I poop on every
piece of you, don't underestimate the things that I will do. Cause I
got money, thank you very, very much.
Now,
anthropomorphized Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Gave him 24 hours to
tie up loose ends, to make amends. Judge's eyes said it all. He
started to fall and the silence deafened, head spinning round, no
time to sit down. Just want to run and run and run. Be careful they
say, don't wish life away, now they've given him one day, and I can't
believe how he's wasting his time. So thank you. Thank you very,
very much.
Yes
they're coming to take me away, ha ha. They're coming to take me
away ho ho he he ha ha, to the happy home with trees and flowers and
chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their
thumbs and toes. They're coming to take me away ha ha...
But I'll be the one who'll break my heart, thank you. The truth lies, the truth lied and lies divide. Rain spat in my face, thanks a lot fate, and I lost my tenspot on the way. Thinking about it, did I spend it last night, when I was disillusioned and I just wanted to get home. Missed the train, thanks a lot fate, I didn't want to be late today, because I'm always late, and I really hate always being late. Now they're coming to take me away.
Couldn't
they just tell lies to me? Couldn't they say I'm blessed with money?
How can they hurt, but words are just sounds, so take your shot.
Thank you. So we went into the kitchen cupboard and got ourselves
our stash and gave half of it away. We sat there looking at the
faces of the strangers on the bills until we knew them
mathematically. They were in our minds until forever, but we didn't
mind, we didn't know better. So we made our own computer out of the
loose change and it did our thinking while we lived our lives. It
counted up our feelings and divided them all up and it called our
calculation “salvation.” Humpty Dumpty and me.
So
take me away. I am a bird, I'll only fly away. I don't know where
my soul is, I don't know where my home is. But I have salvation.
The faces told me. And thank you very, very much.
