lyrics

Death is on your receipt
So who cares 'bout the birds and the bees?
Take some advice from me
You're life's biggest tragedy

And nothing can prepare you for yourself
The things you say when you wake from a bad dream
And nothing can repair the things you've done
The times you hid the times you turned away
The times you didn't say what you wanted to say
And the things that'll haunt you far in outer space

Can't seem to fall asleep
Cause you're worried 'bout making your money
Take some advice from me
This is just a big fever dream

And nothing can prepare you for yourself
The things you say when you wake from a bad dream
And nothing can repair the things you've done
The times you hid the times you turned away
The times you didn't say what you wanted to say
And the things that'll haunt you far in outer space

Cause there's a little you in everything you make
and there's a little life in every step you take
It ain't about the pictures that you take
It's about the love you lost and the people who'll never taste
How free you are and the plastic things you chase
But at least you've got you, and that ain't gonna change
And at least there's more booze here than down in the cold grave
