Something Else

[Verse One]
I seize the day
And strangle it till it's nighttime
It gasps for air
And take scissors to the lifeline
Tug on your heart strings
And forget about the new shrine
Burn down the temple
And dowse myself in sea brine
What's up everyone I'm late to the party
But I got my ugly sweater and I'm hitting on all the harpies
In my right hand I hold a pocket book
In my left hand a pen
I make noise in my bedroom
And show it off to my friends
Got a bowl full of oatmeal
And a tank full of fish
I used to have a magic lamp
But I used up my wish
Ants in my hands
I'm itching to kill
Huffing all this pesticide
I'm looking for a thrill
Now put me back to bed
With a brace on my head
Chains on my wrist
Oven mitts on my fists
You can neutralize the condor
But you can't control the screeching
You can cauterize my wounds
But forget internal bleeding

[Hook]
I'm just looking for something else
But nothing else is out there
I'm looking for something else
But purpose seems to be rare
I'm just looking for something else
Any one got a dream to spare
I'm just looking for something else
Or just to become aware

[Verse Two]
If I were any more jaded
I'd be carved into a dragon
I'd go abduct the damsels
And dine on Bilbo Baggins
Munch and crunch the bones in my teeth
Mostly hair and magic rings
I don't care much for shiny things
I dig the look my poverty brings
I'm torn up and thrown out
Wasted and worn out
Used up jet trash
Bed sores and skin rash
I'm a bearer of the end times
William Tapely nursery rhymes
My table four horsemen dine
This is when I say good bye
Clouds roll in and it looks all grim
I have no floaties no sink or swim
I took a step off the gang plank
And the ship sank
Down to where the sharks ate
And the fish wake
And I drown, turn blue and puffy
And new hue more ugly
One unlucky ducky
Watch me flounder about
What is he up to now
Gunna climb up to the top
Palms slip no grip then drop

[Hook]
