NOFX - The Big Drag lyrics

Before James died he smiled and laughed
'Cause he was just photographed
For the last time
While it was drowned the kitten purred
At least that's what I thought I heard
But maybe that's 'cause I need
To believe in the absurd

Ashes to ashes after the planet crashes
I trust all dust will turn to dust

I used to think a wasted life was not a crime
That's before I realized we don't
Have very much more time
My melodies are maladies my
Poetries are just phonetic
Trying to make sense of this
World is preposterous pathetic

The Gods have had their fun playing this
World but now it's too upsetting
The human race is not worth
Watching or wagering on
We're just a longshot
An underdog with odds so bad now
It's just a blood letting
So, every deity with dignity
Has just stopped betting

So, follow me into a world
Of anything you've ever dreamed
Now that morality is blurred if
You listen really closely
You probably believe in every single word

Mesmerized by rhetorical and
Memorized historical events
That never actually occurred
We're not blind we're bound and blinded
Our minds have been land minded
And I'm so excited!

Every single person on this planet
Thinks they are right
'Cause if you thought that you were wrong
You'd change your mind fuck
From black to white
I do believe in True Romance
So, I'm gonna dance and fight
And fuck with every moment
I'll always have something in
My glass to raise
To make a toast for those making
The most of the last days

Nothing is ever gonna change
Nothing will ever be ok
Nothing is ever gonna change
Nothing will ever be ok
There's only a finite number of tomorrows
And it's not a lot but
It's all we really got
It's all we really got
Live each precious moment that we can manage
To carve out of each day
So, when it's time for us to
Die we'll say our short goodbye
There is no sadness if there's
No one left to cry
