I wanna drive into a wall and make us two dimensional, and
By the way, I need your credit card
I need to pay a guy to get my pineal gland recalcified, and

[Verse 2]
Put it in a mason jar and give it to a child
Tell 'em to recreate me in a couple hundred years when we're all dead
Kiss my wife, tell her I love her

Take the fluid from my spine (Ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah-ah)
Put it in a mason jar and give it to our child (Ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah-ah)
(Ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah-ah)
Give it to our child (Ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah-ah)
(Ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah-ah)
