Lyrics
Haphazardly, tumbling hard Fall right down, laugh out loud All in the scheme of things We're all looking up growing tall It's like pulling one hair You are what you are to me (with wet fingers) In my eyes you're a star (petroleum jelly) You're something I'll never be (and watch the rain dance) You're something, I'm frightened of I've got to get clean The rain will cleanse me And I've got to wash These filthy hands
Because it's all just a futile plan That'd mean I'd have to believe again It's like a career to breathe An existence I can't conceive Emotionless as in slug With my imagined oblivion
You would swear (it's as much fun) That I could, walk and talk (as poking at a nerve) But I doubt you'll ever (no one wants to fail) Ever prove enough (vocabulary test is graded on a curve) Smartest kid is stupid Word is never heard (I doubt you'll ever prove it!)
I've got to get clean The rain will cleanse me And I've got to wash These filthy hands
All these thoughts and feelings are for naught Unappealing so you expect them to dull and fade Still they remain
Caught waiting for the rain Time devours life With my soul as the defendant Don't catch me if I fall I may have jumped you never know You don't know me at all
All these thoughts and feelings are for naught Unappealing so you expect them to dull and fade Still they remain
Because it's all just a futile plan That'd mean I'd have to believe again It's like a career to breathe An existence I can't conceive Emotionless as in slug With my imagined oblivion
You would swear (it's like pulling one hair ) That I could Walk and talk but I doubt you'll ever (with wet fingers) Ever prove enough (petrolium jelly) And wash the rain's hands (I doubt you'll ever prove it!)
All these thoughts and feelings are for naught Unappealing so you expect them to dull and fade Still they remain
Caught waiting for the rain Time devours life
