while you cryin out yer eyes
you barely made it through the flight
now you're saddled
and you know you're not that bright
so you won't shine again
who's on your side
eating prednisone
who's on your side?
and all your insides down
yet burn up in flames
why would i lie?
alright, we're never going back
to where you hang around again
who's on your side
who's on your side?
now all the fumes fall down there
weight it fills your eyes again
it always wins, alright?
he's never coming back to sleep in your bed again
who's on your side
who's on your side
if you learn to hide?
now, who's on your side
who's on your side
when you have to hide?

i was born in the 20th century
well you might have heard about it, hell yeah that was me
you saw me in the pictures, you saw me in the books
if you think you mighta missed it
turn around and take a look
coz i'm the first freak found by P.T. Barnum
i'm the first to take a train to see jazz up in Harlem
i was the first to play country the first to play pop
i was the first to drop acid and the first one to stop
i'm the first to take art to a whole new level
mix it so full of shit you gotta bring a shovel
i was the first to drive a car to win your girls' attention
i done a lot of shit i don't wanna mention
that's the way i was born / that's the way that I am
and i'm still just a 20th century man
and i know what they'll say on the day that i die
they'll say there goes the 20th century guy
i'm the first man ever to throw a pager in the ocean
i'm the first man to hold hands and do the locomotion
i'm the first boy to put peanut butter on his chocolate
i'm the first boy to ever tie a toy to a rocket
that's the way i was born / that's the way that I am
and i'm still just a 20th century man
and i know what they'll say on the day that i die
they'll say there goes a 20th century guy
that's the way i was born / that's the way that I am
and i'm still just a 20th century man
and i know what they'll say on the day that i die
they'll say there goes a 20th century guy

i wish i could find a way
to ease your mind but heal my pain
you sit there watching cartoons
that joke just like my salty wounds
but we're not, no,
but we're not that cold
i wish i could take a day
and say the things i want to say
it's a game the young can play
and i don't feel that old anyway
but we're not, no,
but we're not that cold
I never knew all the things that I thought you would say to me
say to me say to me say to me
I never knew all the things that I thought you would say to me say to me say to me say to me
I never knew (never knew) all the things that I thought you would say to me say to me say to me say to me
i wish i could find a way
to ease your mind but heal my pain
you sit there watching cartoons
they joke just like my salted wounds
but we're not, no,
but we're not that cold

we are the dead we're the damned the damaged
despised and unwilling to sacrifice
what we've lost is our cost for living
and our ear for reprimand
you have no faith in my holy war
i can see you through a hole in the wall
yes we are on the losing side
i can't sell your guilty treasures anymore
|

i never said i was the kind of man to wish you a happy anniversary
maybe one day our paths will cross again
but then again probably not
i wish that we had never exchanged our vows
it'd make everything so much easier now

it's something bigger than you thought,
see a gleam or two in your eye
tastes just like the flu, but it's cool as lyme
making up for the lost time
when she wants to crawl:
celery stalks on the cutting board
life from the view of the cutting room floor
somethin' changed inside your mind
did you think you'd be better off this time?
til somethin' changed inside your mind
i'm still trying to remember why
|

you sentimental fool,
we meet again
tell me what you're thinking
you played me once before,
you win again
where did i go wrong, now?
all i want is some peace of mind
but all i get is a little tired
my precious phantom
be lost to where they want you
i'd like to take you home
whenever you want to
approximately never
all you are is a little fire
and all we get is a little closer
my precious phantom
no one's gonna harm you

hello darling what a beautiful day
misogyny is here to stay
hello darling what a beautiful day
misogyny is here to stay
hello darkness my true friend
i'm seeing cockroaches that aren't there again
but I'm terribly attracted to her spirit and her shoes
i'm terribly attracted to you
she mumbled something as she got down on all fours
she mumbled something as she on the floor
the floor
i love it when we fuck
fuck on the floor
fuck on the floor

you couldn't leave well enough alone
you always try the xx chromosome
always so sarcastic painted blue
never needed something true

i'm trying to forgive myself i never thought i'd still be alive
i'm trying to forgive myself i never thought i'd still be alive
it never turns out the way it was meant to be
it never does
and i feel so denied
It's been a long voyage
so i'm only gonna say this once
i'm not meant for this world
clearly not made for your touch
three years is a long time, but longer if you're not alive
three years is a long time, but longer if you're not alive
i'm not going back to canada
i'm not going back to the way i used to be
depression struck a permanent angle on me
couldn't you tell her?
couldn't you tell her?
i'm trying to forgive myself i never thought i'd still be alive
i'm trying to forgive myself i never thought i'd still be alive
