Half-Moon Bag (Live from Studio Helmbreker)

Don’t look so woebegone

There’s no world beyond the windows

And when the windows are shut

The day is done

It’s done

Just pull the covers up

It’s where we go to sleep and choke our thoughts

And keep still until dawn

I’m living the dream

And everything’s perfect

Look mom, I’m happy

It’s just like we rehearsed it

No need to sigh

‘Cause planet Earth can’t fit inside

A small blue half-moon bag

Under your eyes

And this will all be televised

(All be televised)

Be glad you got the part!

Remember

Someday we’ll be ejected from the world like a cartridge

I think you need a paper bag

I thought you got used to the wobble!

But now you’re dizzy again

Not again

Again

Oh no

I’m eating my greens

And everything’s worth it

Tell dad I’m healthy

Just like he predicted

No need to sigh

‘Cause planet Earth can’t fit inside

A small blue half-moon bag

Under your eyes

And this will all be televised

(All be televised)

Be glad you got the part!

Remember

Someday we’ll be ejected from the world like a cartridge
