one more for the road

 

everybody needs

everyone knows

everybody sees what everyone shows

everybody picks through everyone’s bones

everyone needs one more for the road

 

everybody has

everyone had

everybody here is everyone’s fan

everybody jokes, everyone laughs

everyone needs a pat on the back

 

so why don’t you bail while you’ve still got time?

don’t look to me ‘cause I’ve stopped tryin’

I’ve cut down the trees, burned all the leaves

just to feel the sun again

 

everybody here has go the disease

everybody choke

everyone wheeze

everybody cough, everyone sneeze

everyone's just a cog in the machine

 

so why don’t you bail while you’ve still got time?

don’t look to me ‘cause I’ve stopped tryin’

I’ve cut down the trees, burned all the leaves

just to feel the sun again
