Lyrics

In the yard and tend a garden Daydreamin' of a presidential pardon I keep it guarded -- a hidden target A heart of oak if you'd just rip up all the carpet I know what I want I got what I need A failure to launch and faux sobriety I'm pullin' it taut The bed's fitted sheet I'm mowin' the lawn Oh the banality Can't recapture youthful rapture Try as I might but you should put me out to pasture Manufactured consentin' bastards A hot knife'll lop a head off even faster I know what I want I got what I need Is your mouth full of blood or cherry grenadine I know what I want A flammable drink A bliss that I mourn, a comfort that I grieve Never a doubt - you won't ever know the whole truth Don't call me out, I'll do anything you want me to Take a bow, let the roses fall around your Easy on my bloodshot eyes You're always on my goddamn mind Feelin' hawkish - launchin' rockets Til the depraved elite are emptyin' their pockets If I'm being honest, I lack a conscience Think I love ya and I might just act upon it I know what I want I got what I need It's never enough - unregulated greed I know what I want I got what I need I hung up a crutch but I ain't pissin' clean Never a doubt - you won't ever know the whole truth Don't call me out, I'll do anything you want me to Take a bow, let the roses fall around your Easy on my bloodshot eyes You're always on my goddamn mind Never a doubt - you won't ever know the whole truth Don't call me out, I'll do anything you want me to Take a bow, let the roses fall around your Easy on my bloodshot eyes You're always on my goddamn mind
