Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I rearrange the solar system
Gotta get it done just right for you
What's a couple of stars
When you're talkin' 'bout a
A ground zero holiday?
[Verse 2]
I was standin' at the bus stop waitin'
Gonna be a payin' passenger
When I saw a flash of light go by
Was a neon man in a blazin' hurry
[Verse 3]
Mother's real, but don't you feel
This time you've gone too far?
All in all the sky will fall
On you, be who you are
