lyrics

WHERE OR WHEN:im smoking wet cigarettes by the side of the road your filing a complaint with the department of water its been raining straight for a week so much for sunny california. eventually i start to drift around like the boats in that gross sushi restaurant i hope i never get picked hope i go the whole way around. and you just wave from the side of the pier point to your belly in regards to motion sickness and i was gone for 8 years did you even notice. high society girls still look like muck no matter how many pearls they have and they aint going cheap but its been so long since someone has rocked me to sleep its them or wine in boxes that i could stack up to reach my bottles cuz i have brain to dissolve i made arrangements.dont recall what happened in paris i walked thru walls in berlin, i was fed to the wolves in moscow i did not know my where or my when.
im sweating bullets and im in the shade theres folks singing songs you are in stitches but i dont get the joke you dont know why your laughing the passing cavalcade has a dead president and a star from the 60s but only their eyes are displayed and they seem surprised to be in the parade. you are dressed to the 9s but covered in stains theres dirt on my shirt. the crowd gives us props for trying but they know it wont work. were paying for it all currently we'll pay for it all in awhile. my heart has yet to beat normally nor my arms return to my side.theres so many options and so very often im exhausted just thinkin about them theres still no view from the hill but buildings on buildings. i wonder why dont roll down my feet in the air tasting the ground i suppose i forgot to let go thats why i don’t remember what happened in paris how i walked thru walls in berlin why i was fed to the wolves in moscow why i dont know my where or my when.
