Hooray for Me...

Well, I can see my teenage father standing straight on a desolate corner

In the shadow of tentacled towers by the red light of America

I imagine how his mother felt

When she heard that her husband was dying

And the underground heroes of the tarmac, shooting smack

Were blowing up worlds and damned out loud

Hey, can you tell me how does it feel?

Yeah, tell me

Can you imagine for a second

Doing anything that you don't have to?

Well, that's what I'm accustomed to

So hooray for me and fuck you

When I slept with stony faces on the riverbank

My angel-devil reveler shook me desperately in dying

I don't exactly want to apologize for anything

And now we're all mad and tangled

In secret rooms with Roman candles

On an endless graveyard train

Yeah, tell me

Can you imagine for a second

Doing anything just 'cause you want to ?

Well, that's just what I do

So hooray for me and fuck you

Yeah, I was dreaming through the how's life?

Yawning car black in my mind

When she told me, "Mad and meaningless as ever"

And a song came on my radio like a cemetery rhyme

For a million crying corpses in their tragedy

Of respectable existence

Tell me

Can you imagine for a second

Trying half the things you ever wanted to?

Well, that's just what I do

So hooray for me

Oh, yeah

I'm un-respectable

Never sensible

Maybe incredible

So damned irascible and

I like the things I do

So hooray for me and fuck you
