Lyrics

Bilingual
I can understand
I can understand why people talk with reverence
ย
About the changing of the seasons
About the bluing of the light that brings such melancholy
ย
I can understand
I can understand why poets do mythologize
About the browning of the land
And the hotting on the back of your hand
ย
We were conceived in the back of a car
Brought up in a bar
Educated by TV
I got my PhD
Dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee dee
Dee dee dee
ย
So now we crave
All the comforts and accessories available
ย
And complain about our backs
And how it is impossible to relax
ย
We walk the dog
And sadly we consider
How everything's being ruined
And moan about the youth
While our arbitrary opinions become absolute truth
ย
We were controlled by an invisible hand
The fat of the land
Made us softer than the sea
I shall kiss you on your knee
Eee eee eee eee
Eee eee eee eee
Eee eee eee
And in September
I contemplate surrender
Just dwell upon my odor
And pour another soda
In spite of Palestine
