Wonderful Things

from Fuck the Internet by Double Rainbow

/

lyrics

I had my head full of wonderful things, but they're all gone now to where, I don't know, but I know they'll be found.

I'm sorry for always apologizing for things I did not do, events I could not control and things I did not say.
Pride is a motherfucker and I've got a civilized mind,
A pocket full of pennies, nickles and dimes.
I drink to mankind alone.
While someone a little less lucky than myself talks to god from a payphone. It's ok.
Ask him how much money I owe, he won't know. He threw away my medicaid application and then kept going.
As do I. And as should you. Though you don't know why you'd keep going.
Because I am a machine, a machine has purpose.
I am poetic motion in this ocean while an iceberg shoulder-to-shoulder with the suits and the hors d'oeuvres and the prostitutes with their slurs exlaim "bourbon and whiskey never mattered this much to the south"
I interrupt when I open up my mouth.
I got a family tree of dotted lines I can cut out.
If this is the land of the free beyond a reasonable doubt I say we take missiles, fill 'em with nuclear waste, attach em to satellites and shoot em at the sun
Or at these limousines that are rolling down these country roads.
I've been running around for days in a place I do not know.
With friends that I just met on runaway trains you cannot catch.
For all that I've got nothing to show.
We are off the rails.
Hands tied to the trestles, wrestling with the tracks.
No I swore I ain't ever going back
To that land with that captain with that castle with that princess holding my map.
See, see.
I had my head full of wonderful things, but they're all gone now, to where I don't know, but I know they'll be found.
