lyrics

You seem so cool, you seem so righteous.
I'm hypnotized, might be on nitrous.
"I've never been part of something like this"
- these words are false, the truth's behind us.

Nothing's worse, nothing's better
than watching you pull a double-header
and flail around, though a fish is wetter.
She's burning out. I'm glad I left her.

"Hey," you said, "don't let the kids bring you down."
"Damn," you said, "let's beat this DEAD HORSE around."

Let's start a band, let's have a go,
but six months in and it's still a "no."
These other kids are all at the shows
- I think there's something that you should know.

We don't get high, we keep it clean
but that doesn't fit your petty scene.
We're working so hard you wouldn't believe.
These are crazy times, times like these.

"Hey," you said, "don't let the kids bring you down."
"Damn," you said, "let's beat this DEAD HORSE around."
