3:15And they say, yeah That's just the half of it, you know what I'm saying? That's just the part of the game and the game and the game, you know? It's what you gotta do, you know? It is what it is and it what it is, uh Yeah, live in the flesh Beehive survived in a wreck I carry knives like samurais on a quest That I drive in the chest like it's a riot in the treasure He lost the game and cried in his checkers Lost his name and now signs with an X I just wanna commit crimes in Tibet Turn and say something divine and then climb in a jet Contrived, but correct, besides and direct During nos, I tell lies to the left And meditate on the upsides of a "yes" P.S., I destroyed everything you tried to protect 8 o'clock means it's left behind like you died on a trek Push these pies in the next And try to swallow dry what you tried to reflect All of that pride, thumb slide to refresh, yes, yes, yes, yes What if we were dancers, yeah And we didn't have any answers, no (yes, yes, yes) But life gave us things that we could see?

The songs need to be sung) You and me, yeah (Rrivers need to be swum, swam, swum, all that) 'Til eternity, yeah (uh, yeah) Just as brushes go hard in the paint So we, too, don't bend like arms in restraints I wanna learn how to farm, but I can't And cannot, I'd rather move to another planet I try and pen greats like Ken Shamrock But it spits in my face like basically a mouth roll Mouse hole in a household One thing's thoroughly couched like a slouch goal (yeah) From which they say he lazily blew horns Like lapis lazuli on a cow skull But when things got stunning, he hit the ground running like out soles Now how about those outros?
