Freddy Mercury Poisoning
I'm moderately good at everything
But I don't get paid for anything
I'm mostly just hovering
No catalyst, slowly aging
I went to college
I got a worthless degree
And instead of smithing words
I'm bringing you something to eat
Where does the line get drawn
You live the dream until it's gone
Working for tips and minimum wage
Where does the line get drawn
You live the dream until it's gone
If it felt nice, you didn't do it wrong
We break front teeth
And like us they stay broke too
Two spikes in the throat! Two spikes in the throat!
And a finger pointed straight at you
I need a mustache
A Tom Sellick; Freddy's mane
My dad's hands, my dad's face
Our "adult" is not the same
I will fight no wars
I will not ride
On a submarine
Cause it's less likely that I'll die
No, I'll collide
With a purpose, in due time
Late blooming and left behind
Stubbornly alive
Is there a timeframe?
Then I reject it
This is my cruising speed
Take all the time you need
My time is mostly free
Of things that nag at me
There was a timeframe
But I defected
How long 'til I regret it?
We break front teeth
And like us they stay broke too
Two spikes in the throat! Two spikes in the throat!
And a finger pointed straight at you
I need a mustache
Like Burt Reynolds, damn it! Flame!
A symbol that I'm a man
Something classic I still can't obtain
But I don't get paid for anything
I'm mostly just hovering
No catalyst, slowly aging
I went to college
I got a worthless degree
And instead of smithing words
I'm bringing you something to eat
Where does the line get drawn
You live the dream until it's gone
Working for tips and minimum wage
Where does the line get drawn
You live the dream until it's gone
If it felt nice, you didn't do it wrong
We break front teeth
And like us they stay broke too
Two spikes in the throat! Two spikes in the throat!
And a finger pointed straight at you
I need a mustache
A Tom Sellick; Freddy's mane
My dad's hands, my dad's face
Our "adult" is not the same
I will fight no wars
I will not ride
On a submarine
Cause it's less likely that I'll die
No, I'll collide
With a purpose, in due time
Late blooming and left behind
Stubbornly alive
Is there a timeframe?
Then I reject it
This is my cruising speed
Take all the time you need
My time is mostly free
Of things that nag at me
There was a timeframe
But I defected
How long 'til I regret it?
We break front teeth
And like us they stay broke too
Two spikes in the throat! Two spikes in the throat!
And a finger pointed straight at you
I need a mustache
Like Burt Reynolds, damn it! Flame!
A symbol that I'm a man
Something classic I still can't obtain
