Go Big Or Go Home

there's some lovers with brothers 
who want to smash your face, 
they're all writing fiction stories
in some big top secret place
when the 5 o'clock whistle
gives way to the chase 
we'll all run to the hole
and try real hard to erase
everything we never could control 
the little things that help
you keep pace

give me access to the water supply 
I'll make sure no one gets out alive
that's right! we're all gonna die 
don't worry I'm willing to drive 
I've probably only had 8 or 9 
we're gonna get home, get home just fine 


there's some mothers and others
finding shelter in my home 
granted it's an abstract idea 
but I just wanna be left alone
I'll keep hiding under the covers 
after all we're only flesh and bone
so here's some contrived lines for your 
head stone
 

give me keys to the machine in the sky
I'll set our course for a vertical dive 
that's right! we're all gonna die 
don't worry there's no need to cry 
I've probably only had 8 or 9 
we're gonna get home, get home just fine
