Olly Olly Oxen Free |
| You wanted |
| That’s what you get for wanting |
| You got it |
| That’s what you get for getting |
| Forgotten |
| You’re gardening a rotting bed |
| Of ray-gun era icons |
| So |
| Let’s start it |
| Let’s start it |
| From the minute you felt it |
| You felt it like a prison |
| A panic, you felt it |
| Like that coffee scene |
| From Moscow on the Hudson |
| So |
| Be honest |
| It’s not as if you’re happy about it |
| It’s not as if you’re animatronic |
| It’s not as if you couldn’t |
| Cry out any time you wanted |
| Olly olly oxen free |
| All the people you will never be |
| Olly olly oxen free |
| Olly olly olly olly |
| Olly olly olly olly |
| Fate |
| You call it |
| You color it |
| The color you want it |
| You carpet it |
| That’s awful convenient |
| You paint yourself a nice white room |
| With stripes and matching curtains |
| So |
| You forfeit |
| You cannot build a river across it |
| You cannot hold your own heart hostage |
| You do not have the strength |
| To gag yourself in every closet |
| The wrong place, wrong mind |
| Timing’s always bad |
| You’re such a sad case |
| Misplaced renaissance |
| Inventor of a worldwide |
| Heartbreak, taking it in stride |
| 'Cause you’re an expert |
| Aren’t you? |
| Aren’t you just a dime a dozen? |
| Murderous monosyllabic moron |
| With no sense of purpose |
| Working on your songs all night |
| To justify your worthlessness |
| To anyone who’s watching |
| If they only saw your alter egos |
| Pretty in the shop windows |
| Where you got auctioned hours ago |
| Olly olly oxen free |
| All the people you will never be |
| Olly olly oxen free |
| Olly olly olly olly |
| Higher than the king can |
| See no evil, hear no evil |
| Capture me and throw the key |
| See no evil, hear no evil |
| Capture me and throw the key away |
| Throw the key away |
| So |
| It’s over |
| You’re lying in a coffin of clutter |
| Your father and your sister, your drummer |
| Are sorting through your tapes |
| And lifesaver collection, and you wonder |
| You wonder if you could’ve done better |
| You wonder if you should’ve surrendered |
| Before you learned that |
| Nobody actually wants a fucking martyr |
| Didn’t you, didn’t you, didn’t |
| Didn’t you see? |
| Didn’t you, didn’t you, didn’t |
| Didn’t you see? |
| Didn’t you, didn’t you, didn’t |
| Didn’t you see me? |
| Didn’t you, didn’t you, didn’t |
| Didn’t you see me? |
| Olly olly oxen free |
| All the people you will never be |
| Olly olly oxen free |
| Olly olly olly olly |
| Higher than the king can |
| See no evil, hear no evil |
| Capture me and throw the key |
| See no evil, hear no evil |
| Capture me and throw the key away |
| Throw the key away |
| Throw the key away |
