lyrics

I asked John Lennon why he had to laugh
When he saw me with my mind blown out in that photograph
He said there is a reason but you’ll never see it come
Things are so less scary when they’re done

Things are so less scary looking down your nose at them
Or through your ass when walking back from that place you’d never been
But if we keep on drivin’ this ol’ rig until we’re gone
Things will be less scary when we’re done

I went out just last night but things just kept on happenin’
Someone deep inside me kept on sayin’ hey let em in
But if I didn't die I guess it ain’t worth rememberin’

You know someone said the world’s a cage
And there’s nothin’ scarier than God’s finger pokin’ through the bars
Or when he said come by next Sunday I’d like for you to meet my only son
Things'll be less scary when they’re done
When I got there they were out back getting high
Ain’t it funny you can’t hide your lyin’ eyes
