The View |
| Your gun went off. |
| Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you. |
| My mouth runs on too. |
| Shouts from both sides, |
| Well we’ve got the land but they’ve got the view! |
| Well now here’s the clue. |
| Life it rents us. |
| And yeah I hope it put plenty on you. |
| Well I hope mine did too. |
| As life gets longer, awful feels softer. |
| Well it feels pretty soft to me. |
| And if it takes shit to make bliss, |
| then I feel pretty blissfully. |
| Your gun went off. |
| Well you shot off your mouth and look where it got you. |
| My mouth runs on too. |
| Shouts from both sides, |
| Well we’ve got the land but they’ve got the view! |
| Well now here’s the clue. |
| We are fixed right where we stand. |
| Life it rents us. |
| And yeah I hope it put plenty on you. |
| Well I hope mine did too. |
| We are fixed right where we are. |
| As life gets longer, awful feels softer. |
| Well if feels pretty soft to me. |
| And if it takes shit to make bliss, |
| well I feel pretty blissfully. |
| For every invention made how much time did we save? |
| We’re not much farther than we were in the cave. |
| As life gets longer, awful feels softer, |
| and it feels pretty soft to me. |
| And if it takes shit to make bliss, |
| well I feel pretty blissfully. |
| If life’s not beautiful without the pain, |
| well I’d just rather never ever even see beauty again. |
| Well as life gets longer, awful feels softer. |
| And it feels pretty soft to me. |
| For every good deed done there is a crime committed. |
| We are fixed. |
| For every step ahead we could have just been seated. |
| We are fixed. |
| As life gets longer, awful feels softer. |
| Well it feels pretty soft to me. |
| And if it takes shit to make bliss, |
| well I feel pretty blissfully. |
| We are fixed. |
| We are fixed. |
| We are fixed right where we stand. |
