Yelling at the world as it leaves us all behind

Looking for a girl who still says “Be kind, rewind”

Travelling at speeds, maternity exceeds

Rolling through time and space like tumbleweeds

I wanted to wave the white flag and join the hive and

Arrive alive with you

I wanted to stuff the white bag with human lives

And get out the knives and cut through

I wanted to sing for my supper

Down every upper

And fly from roof to roof

Baby, we are meant to drift until we die

Maybe let us scent our ribs whilst we curse and cry

Use a little less imagination and more fears

A vapid dissertation that takes a thousand years

I wanted to change the outcome that she’d derive

From 95 to 212

I wanted to save the car wreck that she’d survived

And display it in Kathmandu

I wanted to share the share cropper

And launch the Big Bopper

Arrive alive with you

Building a better mousetrap takes a hundred million bills

Makers sailing through stars requires next level skills

Building a better dam, takes a certain kind of beaver

Because to trip the fantastic you must become a true believer

I wanted to take all the provisions that you provide

And drink ‘Five Alive’ with you

I want to sign the dotted line and stay inside

‘Cos there’s literally nothing to do

I wanted to stop the bean counter

and make the edges rounder

Arrive alive with you.
