My mind is the sky
My heart is a switchblade
Somehow before I die
I want to get laid by a mermaid
The black haired man beat the needle
And the bottle
Lived an extra decade
After he let off the throttle
And I held his hand as he laid in his bed
Closed his eyes he never opened them again
Went away for gold, all I found was coal
I shouldn't have believed her
But she gave me such a fever
Said her eyes can turn to diamonds
But, no I never saw it
And I went downtown to find the clown
All I could find was a mirror
And a sinning grin and a poor reflection
Said, "hey man, are you you doing here?"
I can't bare the news
I got the stream restoration blues
It could have been the Gord Downie
Could have been the beer
I want you to surround me
I need you here
Pulling asbestos and teeth
With the odd smoke break in between
Pondering Ponderosas
And what could have been
Dropped out with no diploma
Begging for a coma
I am learning from every bridge I'm burning
And I went downtown to find the clown
But all could find was a mirror
And a sinning grin and a poor reflection
Said "hey man, what are you doing here?"
I can't bare the news
I got the stream restoration blues

Ain't it funny?
You call them pigs
When I was young
We called them rich man's dogs
Oh, it's strange
The evolution
Of armed and uniformed hogs
Lay down
Don't make a sound
It's only in your head
It's alright
It's okay
The motherfucker's gonna be dead
Don't want to meet you
Ain't gonna greet you
Wipe that smile off your face
It's alright
It's okay
Don't forget the taste
Cracked my foot bone
You bled my eyeball
You slammed my face on the hood
It's not alright
It's not okay
You showed your face for good
You better pour my faith
All down the line
Oh, it's fine
Ouroboros borrowed tomorrow
And stole my brother's sorrows
Who's the contact?
Who's the cover?
You jack booted government pension milking lovers
All I know is I wanna go
Somewhere far from here
I'm always down with forgiving
Just tell your wife what you do for a living
And pour my faith
All down the line
Oh, it's fine
