to save all our lives, you've got to envision the fiery crash

[Davey]

You know what I mean ...

We were all basically alone
Despite what all his studies had shown
What was mistaken for closeness was just a case for mitosis
She fatal doses, malcontent to osmosis
Why do some show no mercy
While others are painfully shy?
Well tell me doctor can you quantify
The reason why?

Man-o-man, this is a good one. Love Andrew Bird. You're bearing signs on the avenue, for your own personal Waterloo now ... they'll fight for your neural walls, and plasticities, and precious territory.

[Slosh]

some people wake up on Monday mornings
barring maelstroms and red flare warnings
with no explosions and no surprises
perform a series of exercises

hold your fire
take your place around an open fire

before your neurons declare a crisis
before your trace serotonin rises
before you're reading your coffee grounds
and before a pundit can make a sound
and before you're reading your list of vices
perform the simplest exercises

so here we are at the end the war is over
there's nothing left to defend no cliffs of Dover
so let us put down our pens and this concludes our test
our minds are scattered about from hell to breakfast

hold your fire
take your place around an open fire
don't open fire

NP:

[Monkey Bones]

hold your fire
take your place around an open fire
don't open fire
I think you get it, my friend.

The awkward pause
The fatal flaw
Time, it's a crooked bow
Time is a crooked bow
