Roller Coasters

When you were young and dumb
Roller coasters were so much fun
Now they're just metaphor
The abstract feelings of rich and poor
At best we'll be like the rest
You'll be disappointed and I'll be depressed
But we can still have it all
I'll be the supermarket you'll be the mall
We're raised on bad jokes and puns
Re-runs and men dressed as nuns
Trash can be treasure they say
But too much of it ruins my day
At best we'll be like the rest
You'll be disappointed and I'll be depressed
But we can still have it all
You'll be the supermarket I'll be the mall
You believe in nothing you say
But there's a label for that anyway
You can't live your life excused
The minute you find out the awful news
At best we'll be like the rest
You'll be disappointed and I'll be depressed
But we can still have it all
You'll be the supermarket I'll be the mall
All our plaques are plastic colored bronze
And all our brown hairs have turned to blonde
And I remember when the things we feared
Weren't so disruptively near
All our plaques are plastic colored bronze
And all our brown hairs have turned to blonde
And I remember when the things we feared
Weren't so disruptively near
And now they're here

Every Other Day

Getting paid just about every other day
It's going well
As far as i can tell
But what does that say
About every other day
Yeah every other day
A parents day trip and a green hatchback
I'm jumping in
Not believing
That that was us
Yeah that was us
Yeah that was us
You moved to the woods to grow your own food
Well that sounds cool
But it's sort of rude
For a communist
Yeah what about us
Oh what about us
Getting paid just about every other day
It's going well
As far as i can tell
But what does that say
About every other day
Yeah every other day

Old and Glad

Feelings are pretend
Unless the feeling offends
You or your mom
Or your neighbor's dog tom
And by five o'clock things are rolling along
The six o'clock news the news is old
By ten or eleven its told and it's told
And i can't believe that people listen
To all these things that just happened
Human interest is boring as hell
Bad news is news that all turns out well
And i will not give in
To feelings that offend
A foreign key to an open door
And this nagging feeling
We've been here before
A heart attack
In a Cadillac
And Billy Joel
Where is your soul
Hackensack or Patterson
Let's go to a place where my father has lived
Not Beverly Hills a spaceship on mars
Taking pills and lusting for cars
And i will be old and glad
A thought parade on the fourth of July
And a hot dog prompts the question of why
We pry and poke selectively joke
About the things we cannot decide
And i want to be an American guy
With eagles that soar and a mouth open wide
Singing the praise of American ways
Hourglass shapes and a litany of pies
I will be old and glad
I will be old and glad
I will be old and glad
