Third roar and I look to the tube
Thanksgiving day
I’m spinning Dark Side of the Moon
And I feel okay
Yeah
I feel all right
Yeah
I could do this all night
Sit back in this easy chair
Look at the telly with an empty stare
And watch the world fade away without a care
And dissolve myself,
With everything else
("and now for something - completely different")
The lunatic is on the grass
The lunatic sits on his ass
I take a hit every time I hear
“Death toll has climbed”
It’s all fake, meant to instill fear
Wrestling does that just fine
Yeah
Mr. Tin Man agrees
Yeah
From loud United Fruit Trees
There’s disease
Cause life, it’s all just a memory
What does it matter if it’s real or perceived
I’d rather run with my lover Lucy
In the static there’s so much to see

Why must I let you go?
When you’re already gone
And you won’t even know
And everybody picks me up, and tries to get me through
But they’re all empty, hollow you
So I just trudge along
Oh, it just makes me wanna cry
To know that none of it was real
And everything was just a lie
All these people, all around, and in the dance
Well, they ain’t comforting to me
Cause everybody leaves
If they get the chance
When the anger, and the bitterness seeps in
And it’s hard
To lie
Through your teeth
When people ask you how you’re doing
Cause it’s a motherfucker
Being so alone
And waiting for someone
Who never, comes
Home
I’m burning memories
And photographs
They never really happened
And wishing this cassette (hey babe, I love yuo adneey elalry eovlouy)
Would make it through this shredder
Cause the only thing, that’s worse
Than the slow…forgetting
Of the good times, before the fall
Is remembering it all
So…
Goodnight, goodbye, good luck, I love you
Goodnight, goodbye, good luck, I love you
Goodnight, goodbye, good luck, I hate you
Goodnight, goodbye, fuck off, I hate you
Goodnight, go die, fuck off, I hate you
Thank god, you’re gone, goodbye, I hate you
Thank god, you’re gone, goodbye, I hate you
Thank god, you’re gone, goodbye, I hate you.
[Goodnight, goodbye, good luck, I love you.]
[...]
"Why are you doing this?"
"Sometimes you have to do something unforgivable, just to be able to go on living."

The sun is right behind us
Though it's cold and dark ahead
But, that's just me, being optimistic
I know, I know
Suffering defeats us
Our spirit tries and tries
But it's hard
I know, I know
I know, I know
Pain is a spiraling power
It punishes us all
It spirals all around us
I know, I know
Everything changes
Everything dies, I know
I know, I know
I know, I know
“You see?
All this is twaddle, whichever way you look at it.
So if you, really, go the whole way
And see how you feel at the prospect of vanishing -
of all your efforts, and all your achievements and all your attainments turning into dust…
what is the feeling?”
So you see I'm happy without it
Cause everywhere that love is
That's where I will be
So you see I'm happy without it
Cause everywhere that love is
That's where I will be
Cause everywhere that love is
That's where I will be
“It’s a curious thing.
The most real state is the state of nothing.
That’s what it’s going to all come to.
And for some reason or other we’re supposed to find this depressing.
But if somebody is going to argue that the basic reality is nothingness, where does all this come from?
Obviously from nothingness.”
The sun is right behind us
Though it's cold and dark ahead
But that's just me being optimistic
I know, I know
So you see, I'm happy without it
Cause everywhere that love is
That's where I will be
So you see, I'm happy without it
Cause everywhere love is
That's where I will be
So you see, I'm happy without it…
“See, so in this way, by seeing that nothingness is the fundamental reality, and you see it’s your reality,
then how can anything contaminate you?
All the idea of your being scared and put out and worried and so on is just nothing, it’s a dream.
Because you’re really nothing.
But this is the most incredible nothing.
So cheer up!
Out of this void comes everything, and you’re it.
What else could you be?”
