lyrics

I ain’t goin back
It makes no sense
There ain’t no more track
I’ll jump over the fence
I’m tired of tryin to be
A boy or a girl
I just wanna be fre
Of this make believe world


My memory is vague
When I believed in a couple
An unending bender
Why not a quintuple
I bought the whole sprocket
Was the only thing for sale
I emptied my pockets
They threw me in jail and now

I’m so glad that I’m done
You can’t even go back
When you’re as gone as I’m gone
Lyin flat on my back
I’ll take in the sun
Shinin down through the trees
While the birds sing to me

We’re so glad that you’re done
Let the world fall away
Like the skin of a snake
There’s a world inside the world and and it is ours

If I’m seeking God
The last place I’ll look
Is in your church
God don’t do well In jail
Your cattle call for your capital
That’s been drained of all
That is in my soul
The bribe you offered Is a joke
It don’t even cover my living expenses
All it covers is your ass and your pre pre pre tenses
Everyone knows it’s over
It’s all played out It’s time to

let my Pharoh go
You can’t even go back
When you’re as gone as I’m gone
Lyin flat on my back
I’ll take in the sun
Shinin down through the trees
While the birds sing to me

We’re so glad that you’re done
Let the world fall away
Like the skin of a snake
There’s a world inside the world and it is ours

I’m not you woman
I’m not your man
I am something that you’ll never comprehend
I share my love
With everyone I meet
My privates aren’t your publics
Get your invisible hand out of my sheets

We’re so glad that you’re done
Let the world fall away
Like the skin of a snake
There’s a world inside the world and it is ours
