Hooray For Me...

Well I can see my teenage father

Standing straight on a desolate corner

In the shadow of tentacled towers by the red light of

AmericaI imagine how his mother felt

When she heard that her husband was dying

And that underground heroes of the tarmac

Shoot smack were blowing up worlds

And d**ned out loud

Hey can you tell me how does it feel

Yeah tell me can you imagine for a second

Doin' anything that you don't have to

Well that's what

I'm accustomed to so '

Hooray for me'

And f**k you

When I slept with stony faces on the riverbank

My angel devil reveler shook me desperately in dying

I don't exactly want to apologize for anything and now

We're all mad and tangled in secret rooms with

Roman candles

On an endless graveyard train

Yeah tell me can you imagine for a second

Doin' anything just 'cuz you want to

Well that's just what

I do so '

Hooray for me'

And f**k you

Yeah I was dreaming through the '

How's life' yawning

Car back at that night she told me '

Mad and meaningless as ever'

And a song came on my radio like a cemetery rhyme

For a million crying corpses in their tragedy of respectable existence

Tell me can you imagine for a second

Doin' everythin's you ever wanted to

Well that's just what

I do so '

Hooray for me'

Oh yeah

I'm not respectable and never sensible

May be incredible so d**ned irascible

I like the things

I do so 'Hooray for me'

And f**k you
