Now I'm Learning to Love the War |
| Try not to think so much about |
| The truly staggering amount of oil that it takes to make a record |
| All the shipping, the vinyl, the cellophane lining, the high gloss |
| The tape and the gear |
| Try not to become too consumed |
| With what’s a criminal volume of oil that it takes to paint a portrait |
| The acrylic, the varnish, aluminum tubes filled with latex |
| The solvents and dye |
| Let’s just call this what it is |
| The gentler side of mankind’s death wish |
| When it’s my time to go |
| Gonna leave behind things that won’t decompose |
| Try not to dwell so much upon |
| How it won’t be so very long from now that they laugh at us for selling |
| A bunch of 15-year-olds made from dinosaur bones singing 'oh yeah' |
| Again and again |
| Right up to the end |
| Let’s just call this what it is |
| The gentler side of mankind’s death wish |
| When it’s my time to go |
| Gonna leave behind things that won’t decompose |
| I’ll just call this what it is |
| My vanity gone wild with my crisis |
| One day this all will repeat |
| I sure hope they make something useful out of me |
