Tarmac

This is no fun
This is music from a shallow man
These are movies from a shiny can
And why are my friends sitting over on the other side?
Sitting over on the other side
I could barely make it through alive
But the cannery workers are players and millionaires

Buddy, you still set on taking off?
Yes, as a matter of fact.
Come on and give me a chance, can I get my wings out on the tarmac?

Industry gone
Information is becoming free
No more radio or MTV singing
Why are my friends sitting over with computer king?
Shake your booty, we got everything
Entertainment, air-conditioning
But the blood on the carpet
Is making me manic

Buddy, you still set on taking off?
Yes, as a matter of fact.
Come on and give me a chance
Can I get my wings out on the tarmac?
(Father, have I been a fool to go home?)
Well buddy, what if the world is mostly full of brown-eyes?

Everyone gets a chance in cybermocracy
Maybe I’d like that more if people didn’t suck
And turn up the music
Yeah

Buddy, you still set on taking off?
Yes, as a matter of fact.
Come on and give me a chance
Can I get my wings out on the tarmac?
(Father, have I been a fool to go home?)
Well buddy, what if the world is mostly full of brown-eyes?
Come on and give me a chance
Can I get my wings out on the tarmac?

And I sing, and I want something to break, but all the pipelines are broken
And I’m fine, and I am fed and I’m well, but I am still feeling broken

I’m singing give me a chance, can I get my wings out on the tarmac?
