Lyrics The Big Drag - NOFX

The Big Drag

Before James died he smiled and laughed
Cause he was just photographed for the last time
While it was drowned the kitten purred
At least that’s what I thought I heard
But maybe that’s cause I need to believe in the absurd
Ashes to ashes after the planet crashes
I trust all dust will turn to dust
I used to think a wasted life was not a crime Kevin Seconds
That’s before I realized we don’t have very much more time
My melodies are maladies my poetries are just phonetic
Trying to make sense of this world is preposterous pathetic
The Gods have had their fun playing this world but now it’s too upsetting
The human race is not worth watching or wagering on
We’re just a longshot, an underdog with odds so bad now it’s just a blood
letting
So, every deity with dignity has just stopped betting
So, follow me into a world of anything you’ve ever dreamed
Now that morality is blurred if you listen really closely
You probably believe in every single word
Mesmerized by rhetorical and memorized historical events
That never actually occurred
We’re not blind were bound and blinded our minds have been land minded
And I’m so excited!
Every single person on this planet thinks they are right
Cause if you thought that you were wrong
You’d change your mind fuck from black to white
I do believe in True Romance
So, I’m gonna dance and fight and fuck with every moment
I’ll always have something in my glass to raise
To make a toast for those making the most of the last days
Nothing is ever gonna change, nothing will ever be ok
Nothing is ever gonna change, nothing will ever be ok
There’s only a finite number of tomorrows
And it’s not a lot but it’s all we really got it’s all we really got
Live each precious moment that we can manage to carve out of each day
So, when it’s time for us to die we’ll say our short goodbye
There is no sadness if there’s no one left to cry
