It's not easy being dropped onto a planet
Where everyone is equally confused
My consciousness crying out for mercy
Oh baby baby what I wouldn't do
To hear the answers to all my burning questions
Let this flame inside me flicker out and die
But our reality it isn't quite that easy
So I guess I'll have to go and live a lie
Where All I Need is a money tree
To be told I'm truly happy
And all I need is a shirt with sleeves
To be taken seriously
I want to know the real science of momentum
Why some lose it and some keep going on
And how am I to know if I'll be dealt the proper cards
What if it's me and the old maid who get along
And I just want some tires beneath my feet to take me
Far away from here
Find myself in the middle of a jungle
Where I unveil the key to erasing the fear
That all I need is stability
To be told I'm healthy mentally
All I need is a shirt with sleeve
To be taken seriously
And I've been chewing on my pencils
Waiting for my life to happen
But baby baby you can bet I was sleeping through the sermon
And I've been chewing on my pencils
Waiting for my life to happen
But baby baby you can bet I was sleeping through the sermon
When they said all I need is a God to be
Someone who can possess any morality
All I need is a shirt with sleeve
To be taken seriously
All I Need is a money tree
To be told I'm truly happy
All I need is a shirt with sleeves
To be taken seriously
