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 |
