One Trick Phony

from Lanterns by Moonraker

lyrics

Don't throw me a rope,
I think I'm fine here at the end of mine.
When we crashed our cars on purpose into them,
the city just took out the camera lights.

It was more cost effective to leave us to our anarchy,
I'm gonna take a couple organ lessons and haunt this theater properly.

Cause I don't think I have it in me
to not take everything so personally.
And I appreciate the help,
I'll take the the bus downtown to the grave I dug myself.
Thanks for the help, thanks for the hell.

And what if I like it in the well?

Pack my disguise in the bug-out bags under my eyes.
Let the north and south pole of this candle burn all damn night.
The termites ate through the rafters and the roof collapsed
but there's no need to light your lanterns, I think I'm fine here in this mess.

Still broke and still broken, still...
putting that two weeks notice up on a pedestal.

But maybe I like it in the well!
