lyrics

Look at yourself, you're insane
Can't you think of a better epigraph?
Ideas don't come cheap and words
Are best when you just make them up
I won't kill your degree if you think that it's worth saving
When you fall down the well you've built
Regret's the last thing that you think of

Careful now, I need a little break
This sort of thing isn't up my alley

Quickly making my escape
I break into the Wayback Machine
Following a trail of jelly beans
That I left the previous morning
A loose cannon is the only thing awaiting my arrival
Pardon me, I didn't mean
To treat you like a piece of furniture

That was then, and this is slightly later
But I still haven't found my keys

I was asked what I would call it
And I believe I said "diamondesque"
Guess that wasn't what I was supposed to say
Now was it?
For the past few years all I really learned was loudness kills
And it's really difficult to find a word to rhyme with orange
A word to rhyme with orange
