Valley - All the Animals I Drew as a Kid
well a bomb went off in Mexico today
and a priest in San Diego lost his faith
and they’re searching for some real estate in space
oh dying alone is such a fucking waste
all the animals that I drew as a kid
live in articles on how they wound up dead
there’s still so many places I’ve not been
but i’m sure they can’t be much better than this
cause when it’s all going to shit
and these days it usually is..
oh no it’s a consequential world we live in
oh no we’re just lost and lonely experts
but for you and I
and our peace of mind
in the case of a tragedy
I still wouldn’t press rewind
making fun of all our married friends
while you moved out of your condo
cause you can’t afford the rent
if our life is slow to start
like your father’s 80’s Benz
then I guess it doesn’t matter how it ends
cause when it’s all going to shit
and these days it usually is..
oh no it’s a consequential world we live in
oh no we’re just lost and lonely experts
but for you and I
and our peace of mind
in the case of a tragedy
I still wouldn’t press rewind
what if we starve and the power goes down
running out of things we could talk about
what do we do then, what do we do now
what do we do then, what do we do now
so many birthdays in a Japanese house
wouldn’t it be a shame if your parents moved out
what do we do then, what do we do now
what do we do then, what do we do now
lately old age seems around the bend
when Mom is on depressants
and now Dad can’t feel his hands
and I’m waking up to nightmares where I’m losing all my friends (but in the case of a tragedy I still wouldn’t press rewind)
