Lyrics Dropout - TW Walsh

Dropout

You stand up like you just fell down
Swimming up river like you know how to drown
And you pave the way
With all your proper nouns
You genuflect when you should take a rest
Bowing to the east and fast asleep in the west
You could change your mind
With the heart in your chest
Just drop out
Go for a drive
Like your daddy used to do
In 1965
And you can listen to the radio
All the way to San Francisco
A lost pause is all that you found
Peeking round the corner for a singular sound
And you stop to talk
When you hit holy ground
The graveyard doesn’t care for your type
When you’re eating your bananas way before they get ripe
And you peel that green skin
And call your guru on skype
Drop out
Go for a drive
Like your daddy used to do
In 1965
And you can listen to the radio
All the way to San Francisco
Drop out
Hitchin' a ride
Like your daddy used to do
Before he swallowed his pride
But you can listen to the radio
All the way to San Francisco
