Well I’m the sergeant of the missing town
Break it down
It’s simple enough to wrap my thoughts around
I don’t wear a crown for that flimsy sound
But you can watch my south side when I’m northbound
‘Cause I’m eccentric, perhaps detrimental to the criss-cross
Made by the birds with their wooden mud house floss
For the dreamers, this goes out to half of you
And the rest of the world should wake up
And find something else to do
Skim down the population
And this week all becomes, becomes
Spend now your procreation
And meddle with your funds, your funds
It’s mighty cold when you’re naked in a centerfold
Living off the names of a million men
You wish that you’d known, I don’t condone
The opportunist who thinks that he can use this
Not gonna prove it’s just a messed-up theory set to music
And you’ve got that friend who doesn’t comprehend
The meaning of the end, he’s waiting, breathing
It’s time to watch the private screening
So vacation from the trepidation, it’s so exciting
When you’re melting in the sauna
And the Wall Streets are all biting
Well I’m the flavor of the minute by the time it all sets in
It goes back to the same lame game so I can’t win
It’s easy enough to act tough in front of a crowd
You’re a herd when you’re out
Lobbying with another angry mob
Don’t blow your desk job, son, it’ll come back to haunt you
In the gauntlet, the final showdown, it’ll only taunt you
Watch the lighting dip, flim, trip, flicker and fly out of sight
Out of mind, which means it’s almost time to die
Sweet unspoken ends, redone joking ends
Spring waif grabs the role
Sweet unbroken ends, dealer chocking ends
Six days in the hole
