Say Anything - Slumming It With Johnny lyrics

Me and John rode out from ocean heading east
I had to see, with my own eyes, the factories
I'm buggin' out, we've never strayed this far
Right out of town, southeast and down
Inside my filthy car
But when we got there all we saw
Were more malls and marble mansions
In emerald parks the singing larks
Proclaimed the great expansion
There is no beautiful garbage
They cleared it up already
Tears roll out the eyes and though I
Cry I hold the wheel steady steady!

Do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do

When I get home, I cannot stand my house
My father still fighting with
His trophy unfaithful spouse
I hear the echo now I see it somewhere else
A thousand ways, a thousand days
A thousand towns across the commonwealth
Out on a date but like a dog
She smells the fear and runs
And still we make our cheese
Tortured artists are no fun
I dream of anger, sex
With her I succeed but still
Soon I'll be poppin' pills
This emptiness will not be filled or killed

Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do

Look at the earth: It's just so green
Perhaps it's envious of all
The galaxies it's seen
Where forces swirl in symbiotic harmony
Free of the taint, the gas
And paint of parasites like me
Keep using love as the excuse for
Why we're fat and lazy
Wait to grow old, like we've
Been told, go bald, go west and crazy
This is so pointless it actually
Holds up our evolution
Sing it to the bastards &
Free yourself from mental prostitution

Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do
(Oh, Oh, I didn't know, I didn't know)
Do do do do do do do
(Oh, Oh, I didn't know, I didn't know)
Do do do do do do do
(Oh, Oh, I didn't know, I didn't know)
