Earthquake Driver |
I was born again a little north of Disneyland |
Somewhere under Wonderland in Hollywood, but then I had to go |
Skipping and diving and bouncing back to New York City |
Straight through the heart of America where all the wild things grow |
I wanna be an earthquake driver |
I wanna be an aquarium diver |
I just don’t wanna go home |
I live alone, but I am hungry for affection |
I just struggle with connection til the water calls me home |
Down under the ocean among millions of other lonely people |
Drowning among the only people we are ever going to know |
I wanna be an earthquake driver |
I wanna be an aquarium diver |
I just don’t wanna go home |
I wanna be like the people I see |
They want a rover just like me |
I wanna stay but what keeps me away |
Is I’m tied into the lightning line |
I wanna see if the sun is shining |
Long night’s just a waste of time |
I don’t wanna see people like me |
Just sleeping and waking and hoping and hating and |
You look at me like I’m some kind of carnival attraction |
You say love is an abstraction, just some ghost that you chase |
Well, I am a cypher, I am a blank space |
Filled up with words you remember from whenever you saw my face |
I wanna be an earthquake driver |
I wanna be an aquarium diver |
I just don’t wanna go home |
I wanna be like the people I see |
Hey man, they want a rover just like me |
I wanna stay but what keeps me away |
Is I’m plugged into the lightning line |
I wanna be where the sun is shining |
All night chasing time |
I don’t wanna see people like me |
Just creeping and waking and hoping and hating and |
Now what is the price for all of this fame and self-absorption |
We turn ourselves into orphans and then spend our nights alone |
Living in fear of some imaginary consequence |
Terror, incognito, ob-la-di, li-bi-do |
I wanna be an earthquake driver |
I don’t wanna be an aquarium diver |
I just don’t wanna go home |
Truth is, I don’t wanna be an earthquake driver |
And I do not want to be an aquarium diver |
But hey, I just don’t wanna go home |
Oh man, I just don’t wanna go home |
Oh, I do not wanna go home |
