Lazy
Afternoons
Hangin out      
With the goons

Glorified
Busy streets
Never me
I’m too weak

Aren’t you happy you’ve got something to judge
I give you something to judge
Why aren’t you happy?

My best
Your worst
don’t care
Come       first

Don’t mind
Bein found
Lyin here
On the ground

Your talk
Dragging me
Take your aim
leave me be

My sleep
So sweet
Your dreams
Not unique

Happy
Not doin much
So be a friend
Don’t make a fuss

Lazy
Afternoons
Hanging 
With the goons

Instead of Making Love (Say Hello)

When we kill Creation, we kill Creator. 

Keep them alive, before it's too late.
