lyrics

Hey
Why don’t you stand on your head
So you can smell in the dark
This isn’t lip service
It’s just a walk in the park

Hey
Why don’t you sleep in the street
While we sign for the blind
I’m a trained professional
Nobody seems to trust my kind

Never really care
If a voice is there in my ear
Say a silent prayer
But I wouldn’t dare call you near

Can’t help but wonder why
Dead things don’t really die
I watch one wander by
Swallow my smooth reply

Hey
Why don’t you stay for a drink
And enjoy another falling dream
We can turn it inside out
With another pyramid scheme

Never really care
if a voice is there in my ear
Say a silent prayer
But I wouldn’t dare call you near

Can’t help but wonder why
(Why I always dream)
Dead things don’t really die
(Of dying in my sleep)
I watch one wander by
(By my own fair hands)
Swallow my smooth reply
Truth or die
