When all is said and done
Wanna clip my toenails down down down down down
And put them in clear plastic ziplock bags
And take them down
Down to the town in a Monte Carlo
With Stevie Nicks
The interior white leather
Near the last thing on my list
And you're the first thing I'm gonna remember
When I wake up
It's all gonna come to be
The same bad video for twenty years
It's all gonna come to be
Optimistic xerox of yourself
It's easier when you're self made
You can pack it up and put it on the highway
You can fill up the air with bad breath
Cos it's already polluted and reconstituted
And filtered back into the system
And packaged up
And the space age is running out of distance
It can leap out and disconnect all the connections
Program the appliances to puke on the floor
It's all gonna come to be
Self-indulgent
Yeah it's all gonna come to be
The same old noise you never wanna deceive
Mexican speed metal things
Casserole fruit salad hair gel
Self-inflicted life affirming help
Is that slack
Is that crack
Are those dogs
Are those dogmas
Are those clogs or platform shoes on your feet
Take your Johnny Cashmachine
And you talk about fashions that come in crashing in late at night
Like a plane crash
Survivors comes picking out the fiberglass and styrofoam
And the love that is breathing is the love that is spray painting
And vandalizing everything that your own
Cos it's all gonna come to be
The same bad scene for twenty years
Yeah it's all gonna come to be
Optimistic xerox of yourself
Predictions of debilitating health
Whining all night long
Wining and dining
Climbing into the rafters
Shredding your afro
Taking karate lessons
Sucking in the bandages
