lyrics

oh my god it's nothing coming at you fast
tie your hair down, nothing loose is gonna last
spitball myths until they stick to you like glue
nothing left to do, fumbling for food

parts of a world made of animals only

i don't want to think again
waiting around
i fall for a second
i don't wanna think until tomorrow comes, that's never happening

ahh, i'd give anything to trade places with that dog we chased yesterday
seems like whenever people get in a hole, they begin to get jealous of dogs
first i was a bird! and then we're an island!

now, we have to sit tight until it gets dark, and hope we don't have a full moon
we can sing old songs if we get restless, waiting

what's the matter? i hear that they're cannibals
so even if we get caught, you're pretty safe!

we spend our lives running our fingers down the lists and directories
looking for our real names
our permanent addresses
