Have you heard the new prophecy? The desert's comin for you and me, oh yeah, by 2053. The desert's made out of ancient seas, and thanks to our atmospheric deeds, oh yeah... I have always wanted to visit the ancient seas and now they're spreadin out to me. And now that there's no economy, we don't have to sing in richer people's key. It's so easy to get relief. Have you heard the new prophecy? The desert's coming for you and me by 2053. The ancient seas spreading out to you and me to take a drink. The prophecy: The desert's gonna take a drink. There's no economy. The ancient seas are moving to the northeast After all this grief we don't have to sing in richer people's key. It's so easy to get relief.

I recognize that in between us there's a distance. My life has been on call. Walking down the path of least resistance, has led us to a wall. But we got a special thing. I promised you that I would be forever present, and then I got a job. We sacrificed our passion just to live on credit, but we can have it all. We got a special kind of thing. I won't give away my time anymore. I give my time to you.

I am permitted to use this device in 40 states to clean the pipes. And I'll protect the watershed from its own doing. I still got a sense of smell. A window box that's full of snails. There's no roses where we're goin. You wouldn't believe what we find in there. It's just like when life began without all the talking. I still got a sense of smell. There's no roses where we're goin.

Plant Life 05:52
Thinking about my plant life and I can see that your face is out. You don't care because you know love survives it all. Thinking about my plant life once again, and I want you to stay away. Don't you mind at all? Cause I can see your face is out, and I want you to stay away. I can't take your pain away. I want you to stay away. I cant take your pain away.

Yes, I would like to go into your house. Your standing invitation to your inner circle is a thrill. Drinking coffee so that we can: swim in moonlight, bring in the tide, make sure we can go past midnight, lay down upright, later we can take another pill that lovers need to get by. We're going to your house. We go into your house. Hey! Shuggaduggaduggaduggadugga! We just had a good time. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again again. Thank you for a good time. Let's do it again! OK!

Last night I did a puzzle in my sleep. Last night it was a puzzle in a dream. Last night there was a puzzle keeping track of nothing. Somebody once told me that you are provided the material things that you need. It was a fortune, and it was individually wrapped to be obvious for you.

Gun River 02:34
When water is in front of us we can't help but to drink. It's not pristine, but we've never been to clean and we can feel alright and spare the pain and please don't go on Gun River. When love is right in front of us we might forget to think, but no worries. Something simple don't upset me. We're feeling alright as long as we make sure we don't take your boat on gun river. You go to hell on Gun River. It will spin you out. It will make you confuse anger and pleasure, so don't take Gun River.

Bread and butter before you order Coupon in the mail Particulate matter in the air The things you get for free and don't ask for sometimes leave you wanting a little more no matter what you ask for And about the job they gave to me I've been working so long that I'm numb to the fear, I'm numb to the lying, I'm numb to hearing I'm wrong. And when I get over, I'm gonna find myself living in a nautical themed house. I've had enough, I'll get my stuff and take the bus to Cleveland. it's not enough that the things that purport to make me free are the same things I never asked for. I've had enough, I'll get my stuff and take the bus to Cleveland. It's not enough that I cant rebuff whatever it is that puts me out of season. Now my inner life is bleeding. And I know that the consequence is strong and the thing that purports to make me free is the same thing I never asked for. The things you get for free.

Girl, I need you to know that you got me now. Whenever we're apart I'm always feeling down. So please deliver me. Won't you let me come on back around? Boy, I already know that I got you now, but we need this distance until you can figure out how to do it right, how to sing our endless together through the night. Cause you might as well be on the other side of the world, but there's a reason you're away. If you do right I'll put our favorite record on. Spin some Gladys, cover you light night. Wrap you in my good good, wouldn't stop me if you could. Cause I can still cast a spell on you, power, danger, pleasure comin thru. Hey, I think maybe I can come on back to you now. I can do right, let me prove it to you somehow. I can get in the car and drive it home, I bought a pizza so lets go ahead and get stoned. Cause you might as well be on the other side of the world, but there's a reason you're away. You might as well be on the other side of the world, but just for tonight it'll be okay. I will give you power, danger, pleasure comin thru. I think we're getting back together again...
