Suburbia 03:10
lyrics

Suburbia Never really kept the key low Only listened to music that got us emo Dreamt of big money from not casinos Good friends become godfathers like Al Pacino Fly by the seat of my chinos We tryna stroll off the beaten camino Everybody always been asleep on the stilo And these small town bitches ain't really feed my libido Seen skirts on skirts on skirts drop down Seen good girls under 20 bellies pop out Seen a papa dip out She the one she the one who can't hop out It's a goddamn shame over here Wheelchair-ridin' old ways over here Steeples are feeble more needles than people Spiegel im spiegel Suburbia won't take me home I know I know I know I know I know better I know I know I know Suburbia won't take me home I know You gon' be alright, too many trees with caught kites The window candles always on the lookout for the headlights Doin' donuts in the country Rip bogues somethin' like a counterfeit Mugsy I sit low free flow ego chubby If I ain't dress like them I guess I'm ugly None of our ex-girls love us Heard about it in the VW Trippin' like we all had lice Head-scratch summers I still ain't know shit 'bout the grand scheme No one understand me, man in the mirror prolly damned me Run a lot to keep from gettin' antsy, hands gettin' clammy Guilt trips to and from the pantry Remember GOAT Ain't no stay gon' make me The GOAT I know Streetside lookin' like Seahaven so Truman get to movin' Suburbia won't take me home I know I know I know I know I know better I know I know I know Suburbia won't take me home I know You gon' be alright, too many trees with caught kites The window candles always on the lookout for the headlights Just hit the guard rail And we were swervin', yeah Suburbia won't take me home I know I know I know I know I know better I know I know I know Suburbia won't take me home I know You gon' be alright, too many trees with caught kites The window candles always on the lookout for the headlights

No Regard It stormed onto the floor and petrichor ensued And I was partnerless mid-street skip to my lou Arm out got dizzy waitin' for you The moon's youth ended newspaper hit the stoop I was alone I was alone Karma gon' come sometime to get ya And ain't no nomad can outrun that (we know) I hunt for ghosts that hide in rooms of weed fog Could break my neck the way I'm playin' leap frog (top heavy) All the food for thought you dropped in hopes of seagulls There's lava under seesaws, now your feet gone I was alone I was alone Karma gon' come sometime to get ya And ain't no nomad can outrun that (we know) Rock and roll is too cold for your coat Rock and roll is too cold for your coat Rock and roll is too cold for your coat Rock and roll is too cold for your coat Rock and rollin', baby rock and rollin' Baby rock and rollin', baby rock and roll Baby rock and rollin', baby rock and roll Baby it's too, baby it's too, baby it's too cold Ah karma This karma gon' come sometime to get ya And ain't no nomad can outrun that (we know) I always knew that karma gon' come back around Karma gon' come sometime to get ya And ain't no nomad can outrun that

Bad Health Mama, mama, mom I need help Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad health I don't want bad health to make a bitter old man outta me An old man oughta be set up right so he can stand upright I don't want bad health to place any more space in between You and me that we don't need It's all my fault and you been takin' the blame Bad health Bad health Woke up on construction hours, eyes all bloodshot Car crashed in the garage, sound like a gunshot Woman in my bed who I ain't got no feelings for And a candle burnin' on the ground coulda burned the house down We did lines on a plate in a room With a lamp overturned like fiends and me I don't know what it means to be a kid And I keep on trying to find out, guess I'll only know when I'm old Bad Health Had drink in between our legs on the freeway Had a cop to our right saw our lives on replay Almost hit him cus I wanna be the DJ Still wanna spin, might go and pull the e-brake When I heard that your good friend died Cus his lungs got fried, I was still pullin' smoke into mine All that made me feel like a king Got a quota made up in my head and my head rings This gon' be a long ride like a limousine But somehow I think that I could make it to the other end I had been so innocent, I had been a coward I had been the nice guy, the one that you were proud of But I had had enough of not knowin' nothin' Learned who I was cus I learned who I wasn't Pursued my own pollution and arrived at confusion And I'm still there, now I'm more aware of where I gotta go Disregard what I said, disregard what I sung I'm the only one that change could ever come from Please ma, just for a little while I got a couple things that Imma try to reconcile In this stretch, when I need you the most Even if I ask ma you gotta resist, it's my wish Don't do your job, don't be my friend Don't gimme help, but don't blame yourself And don't ask me why, cus you will find out When I find my way back into your arms With my head up high, like the good old times Finally feelin' like the man you always saw me as Mama, mama, mom I need help Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad health I don't want bad health to make a bitter old man outta me An old man oughta be set up right so he can stand upright I don't want bad health to place any more space in between You and me that we don't need It's all my fault and you been takin' the blame Bad health Bad health

Traffic In Virginia Blood below an eye And purple was the other side Young was one and old was two Somethin's stirrin' in ya Beeps and shouts And weary arms awoke out windows None would bother Traffic in Virginia A whole heart feels everybody else's Lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be selfless Whole heart feels everybody else's Lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be selfless Seat belt unclicked The driver door undid I thought I'd see a suicide Somethin's stirrin' in ya Four of five were left inside All tiptoe-eyed and petrified Collar torn by passenger hands Traffic in Virginia A whole heart feels everybody else's Lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be selfless Whole heart feels everybody else's Lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be Stole the vacancy From the line of fire And spoke until his blood was drier Got in their vehicles And drove away with dusty waves It was just another day Of traffic in Virginia A whole heart feels everybody else's I lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be A whole heart feels everybody else's I lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be I lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be I lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be I lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be, if I could Lose sleep in my dream, I'd rather be
