Shelved |
| I wanna ride the hydraulics |
| Lit up like the North Star |
| I wanna wallow in the spoils before the crowd |
| I wanna play my guitar |
| Not gonna sit up and beg |
| Not gonna do tricks |
| Not gonna stand here on a sound stage |
| Tethered to a crucifix |
| The ride’s over |
| I know |
| But I’m not ready to go |
| I wanna flash my pastel colors by the rail |
| On a windy day at Pimlico |
| Don’t want to write songs with this clown they set me up with |
| In a Los Angeles rehearsal studio |
| Not gonna tour with Trent Reznor |
| Third of three, bottom of the bill |
| You can’t pay me to make that kind of music |
| Not gonna swallow that pill |
| The ride’s over |
| I know |
| But I’m not ready to go |
| Maybe dad is right |
| I’m still young |
| And I can write C++ just as good as anyone |
| I know this guy at Lucasarts |
| He says they’re looking for hands |
| In fifteen years I’ll be throwing back beers |
| With my feet in the sand |
